We are thinking of swinging over to Yosemite on the way back but time may be an issue.

Thats a great trip. There are great views all the way up the coast.
A word of caution.. From Santa Barbara North to the end of San Luis Obispo county is heavy CHP activity. Be sure to keep it around 70mph to avoid tickets all the way until you hit the twisties on the coast.
Personally I try and get as far north as I can on the first day. There are plenty of bars and restaurants in santa barbara, but it takes too much time to drive in, park and find them. There is a nice restaurant.. nepenthi in Big Sur with great views, Carmel has some hotel/restaurant bars, pebble beach etc. Whatever you come across will be fun when your with friends. Morrow Bay has Dom's cafe which makes some pretty good cocktails. Great breakfast & lunch too.
In San Francisco there are several good restaurants all over town. North Beach especially. Depends on what your looking for.
