San Francisco with teens--Ghirardelli

I almost cannot believe I'm asking this question. I've been to SF many times, but not for this specific reason: we are taking 5 thirteen year olds to SF and will be ending the day at Ghirardelli Square for ice cream treats. We need a teen-friendly and FUN spot for lunch, preferably walking distance. Themed burger joints, pizza places, etc. Any ideas are most welcome!

There are several restaurants on the street by the water that runs from Ghiradelli Square to Fisherman's Wharf.

There are a couple of quickie bites/joints in the Square as well, but not many. There's a Belgian Fry place that I enjoyed.

Where will you be at lunch and that can help answer your question

Eat at Hard Rock Cafe at Pier 39 & then walk down to Ghirardelli, prob about 10-15 min at best. You may wanna try and look for the bush man while your there or he may find you! haha

My kids go to SF every December on shopping trips with our church, they loved the Rain Forest Cafe. www.rainforestcafe.com It looks like fun, too! ***kim***

Thank you all for your suggestions!

We have kind of bad memories from Rainforest Cafe from Disney World (twice) when we had to wait forever for a table for mediocre food. Okay, and we were hot and tired from being in Animal Kingdom all day. But the atmosphere is fun, and some of the dishes were fine....and I notice at their site that they now take reservations.

Both Hard Rock and Rainforest would be good options. Thanks!
