This is unbelievable!!! My fiance is heading there this weekend and I have been telling her for a week how great the place is. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to plan a trip out there when they reopen.
I don't know how mobile you two will be, but a trip to Trader Vics in Emeryville (just across the Bay Bridge from SF) is a must do!! Try to go around sunset time if you can because having a San Francisco Style Mai-Tai and watching the sun set over the boats in the Emeryville Marina is something you and your Fiance will never forget!!
Not too far away in Oakland is the Conga Lounge above Pizza Rustica on College Ave. It is a fun "new" Tiki bar.
In SF there is Hawaii West in North Beach. It is basically a locals Tiki dive bar. Out towards the ocean is Trad'r (Trader) Sams on Geary. On weekends the crowd can often get obnoxious and "Frat-y", so try to go early and leave by 9pm or so. Bamboo Hut on Broadway is a great looking bar, but it is my least favorite because it often plays crappy music and the drinks suck eggs more than not!
Also, here is a listing of some of my favorite non-tiki places in SF
