Thanksgiving drinks (wine/cocktails/digestifs)
Rieslings and Pinot Noir are what I typically reach for on T-Day. Rieslings will pair with traditional fixings and German ones are typically lower in alcohol. A safe bet for the cook! Pinot Noir's tannin level will handily meet the Turkey protein without overwhelming it.

tapas favorites?
An easy thing to bring is a Spanish Tortilla. If you have more time, try making Empanadas. One other dish that is VERY easy to bring... find a really good Spanish Chorizo (cured), pre slice it. At the party over stove top... simmer the chorizo in red wine and a bay leaf for about 10 minutes. Serve with some toasty bread.
Cheers,

Not sure if I would agree with some of the recommendations above but here are my favorite restaurants:
-Piperade
-Perbacco
-A16
-Ame
- La Taqueria... my favorite Taqueria
Yes, you must go the Ferry Building and check out the scene.
If you go on to SFgate.com and check out the the food section's top 100... that will put you on the right track for sure.
