Default Trip to Cali

In Feb my girlfriend and I will be heading to San Fran area for a nice vacation. Current set in stone planes are limited but so far this is what we have:

Fly in Thursday morning
Concert Friday night at 7PM
Saturday head to wine country
Sunday some more wine tours and fly out Sunday evening

What I am looking at:
-Hotel for two days in San Fran, what are some good options without breaking the bank? Thinking of staying near the Wharf.
-Rental car, we really only need it for Saturday & Sunday, but we also might try to cruise the coast. Are there rental services that we can rent a decent car for the day (convertible/roadster)?
-Dining, Thursday night will be Valentines night and looking for something simple but fun. Maybe dinner & a show all in one place.

I'm just going Sat. Concerning places to dine in SF... there are just too many. Many hipster Yelpers around this area, so that is a great resource.

priceline.com

bid for a 4 star or higher hotel. ive gotten 100 dollars/night before. start low, and bid up. get another person to bid with you. start low at like 75/night. get the other person to bid 80, then you bid 85. etc.

all else fails, use the express deals option. ive gotten awesome deals there too.

for gary dankos, you need to make a reservation like...now. they book so fast!!!
