Cheapest - BART (train)
Decent - Uber, though lately drivers have been calling and asking for the destination and cancelling once they hear SFO
Money not an issue - Car Service. I can recommend a few.

F-Bart. Dirty, long, crowded and will drop you on market street in the midst of discarded garbage and p***. Uber black used to be fixed price to the airport at $68.85. It is now pricier, but still my preferred option. Else regular Uber-X or town car service.

If you take uber pool or lyft line to the airport you’re generally going to be the only passenger...

@a4 it's 30 min from the airport top downtown?

I like lyft better going to/from sfo. Uber/lyft are generally $34-45 one way. BART is maybe $8-12 and generally runs every 5-12 minutes. Check the traffic when you land and maybe just play it by ear. Good luck!

Probably more on the 12-20 minutes side for BART*** 5 seems too generous from sfo now that I think of it
