Calling a cab in San Francisco is not as easy and funny as in NY!!
Forget about the yellow cab braking in front of you as soon as you think of raising your hand.
But, if you have the appropriate phone number saved on your Iphone, you'll get one quite quickly.
So here are some numbers to call...

AIRPORT SHUTTLE
It might be interesting if you're one or a couple. Actually, 2 families can share a van considering the fact that their rate does include one pick up.
For a family with 4-5 members, and with a relatively reasonable number of luggage, a regular cab should be fine. Expect a 45 to 55$ ride fare to SFO, tip included, with a regular cab.
American Airporter Shuttle
Prices start at 17$ per person. They offer fixed rates for some destinations like SFO. Also offer Site seeing tours.
Go SFO Van -- En savoir plus
Rates start @ 15$ per person. They also offer a van for 7 persons for 75$ (to SFO).
LIMOS

Excellent reputation.
A bit more expensive than a regular cab, but sometimes it's worth having a car waiting for you when you land from a long trip.
129 Kissling St

Wide range of services including tours, airport shuttles, limos... They offer special fares for some specific hotels customers. The Hilton hotel on Union Square is one of them.
