Just returned from SFO area. Santa Rosa has a hopping night life. Santana owns a club there called "The Cantina," it's located on a stroll with several other somewhat trendy clubs. "S" may not be up to heading out for dancing drinking. I've always enjoyed the Presidio Park. There's also the Fine Arts Museum and the de Young, I try to hit them when in town and have time.
If you're up for a slice I like Mary's Pizza Shack, think they have about 20 locations in the small towns north of SFO.
I second Idyllic's Twin Peaks suggestion for great views of the city(s) and you can always find a stripper somewhere in SFO going by the name of "Twin Peaks." I think Carol Doda started that. I have no idea why I know that.
Speaking of views, just north of the Golden Gate you can exit and head up a hill for some great shots with the city in the background. At sunset these can be amazing scenes. I can't remember the name of the exit but I'm pretty sure it's the first one after the bridge.
The sammich shop he saw was likely "Ike's Place" interesting menu with sandwiches like "The Ex-Boyfriend," "The MILF" and "The Al Bundy." Our first trek there the line was long and we gave up and ate elsewhere. We returned a couple days later, early afternoon and managed to get served. Their "dirty sauce" is different and I wasn't sure I liked it, after a couple bites it grew on me.
Speaking of north of SFO, lot's of road construction on 101 right now, might want to keep that in mind when planning trip times.
Have a wonderful time, hope all goes well with "S."
