Couldn't have booked any better restaurant to celebrate birthday. Dalida had been on one of the top 10 booked restaurants in SF and it is definitely worth it. Michelin star level delicious food, unique dishes of chicken, lamb, fish and vegetables. We ordered steak, chicken, fish dishes and everything was flavorful and perfectly made. Decent cocktail options and great wine selection. Service is impeccable and all staff members were welcoming and serving with pride. Overall great experience, must try restraunt in SF.

Excellent date-night spot near the Presidio. We walked in early and sat at the bar, which ended up being perfect. The staff made us feel genuinely welcome as visitors from Brazil, and Mars took excellent care of us. She explained the whole menu from memory, gave thoughtful recommendations, and made ordering much easier. We were looking for a lighter, lower-carb dinner and the menu worked really well for that. The octopus was a perfect starter, especially with the excellent in-house salt crackers. The oysters were fresh and beautifully served, and the duck dolma was memorable. Everything felt thoughtful, flavorful, and easy to share. The room is beautiful without feeling overly formal, the service was great, and we finished with a very good espresso at the end. Walking back through the Presidio afterward made the night even better. Highly recommended.

I’ve tried many restaurants in SF, but none have impressed me quite like Dalida (with the exception of Maria Isabel, which is just as good). Everything coming out of Chef Laura and Seyat’s kitchen is incredible. Finding truly great Mediterranean food has been a challenge, but Dalida is absolutely spectacular. Last week, I took my husband there for his birthday dinner and we went with the chef’s tasting menu. Every dish they brought to the table was phenomenal, each one has unique flavors and textures. It wasn’t just a meal, it was a full experience. Sitting at the counter and watching everything come together made it even more special. Daniel and Dogan took such great care of us throughout the night. Can’t wait for the next visit!

Presidio’s hidden gem for Modern Mediterranean dining Dalida exceeded every expectation for our date night. The mezze spread, fresh bread, hummus, yogurt and olive spreads. set the tone perfectly, followed by a stunning octopus carpaccio and melt-in-your-mouth lamb chops over hummus with fragrant saffron rice. The cocktails are creative and refined, don’t skip the Fig Negroni or the Saturnalia. We finished with a layered baklava and goat cheese ice cream that was simply perfect. The open kitchen makes the whole experience feel alive and dynamic. If you’re looking for a memorable date night or special occasion restaurant in San Francisco, Dalida is the answer. Highly recommend!

I'm raving about the octopus dish here. The sauce was so tasty and the presentation was so beautiful! We also really loved the lamb chops which very tender. And make sure to get the pita bread and mezze platter too! Service was friendly and on point. Everything was really great!
