We'll want seafood for at least one nice sit down evening meal. No tie, jeans are a must.
I'd like to see Ben Davidson's cell at Alcatraz......is that something that can be done in half a day?
If you had one art museum to recommend which one would it be?

This is SF outside of a very few very upscale restaurants no one bats an eye at jeans. Why? Too many tech millionaires and tech people aren't big fans of dressing up, so people tend to dress down. Granted this also makes shopping in SF more pleasant than say NYC. Since they can't tell by looking at you if you have money or not you tend to get great service.
So given what you've said, if I probably would not recommend the asian art museum. Both the De Young and the Cal Academy of sciences are across from each other in golden gate park(so you get to see a bit of the park too). While I haven't been there yet I've heard great things about the academy of sciences. It's natural history but alot of people have fun there. Here's the web site

If you want more classical fine art's the De Young is across the street.
