My experience with seniors and kids is that bathroom breaks especially before and after dinner can take longer than you might expect.
It also depends if your next flight is domestic. or international.
Yikes, I didn't notice that. I wouldn't advise leaving SFO (let's call the Grand Hyatt part of SFO) for a sit-down dinner anywhere with only a 4-hour layover. Maybe a run to In-N-Out Burger in Milbrea for those who need their fix, but we're back to normal (i.e., bad) traffic conditions here. That raises a big risk of not making it back in time for the connection.
