  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
  • Charming
Beautiful Modern Mediterranean restaurant by Chefs Laura and Sayat (Star Chefs and San Francisco Chronicle Rising Stars) at the Main Parade Lawn in the heart of the Presidio National Park. The restaurant's menus feature Presidio-inspired seasonal craft cocktails, a progressive wine menu, and a cuisine that balances the comfort of familiar Mediterranean flavors with California sensibilities.

In cohesion with the Presidio National Park, the design features soft, natural colors; repurposed furniture items from the Presidio; and a mural and a hand-drawn wall paper by Bay Area artist Emily Parkinson. Diners can enjoy a patio with a view of Alcatraz; an intimate private dining room; a lofty main dining room surrounded by windows on two sides; a cozy bar that is a local favorite; and an open-concept kitchen counter with counter seats and high tables.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Laura and Sayat

From the OpenTable editors: This Presidio restaurant—where the food is just as stunning as the Bay views—is founders Laura and Sayat Ozyilmaz love letter to the Eastern Mediterranean. The menu is meant for sharing; the fluffy pitas are a must-order with hummus and muhammara. Better still, go for the chef's menu, so you can get the best of Dalida's juicy kebabs and seafood that landed it a spot on Esquire's Best New Restaurants list.

Review summary

Dalida offers a "really innovative and delicious" Mediterranean fusion experience, with standout dishes like the "chubby pita" and creative cocktails.

    Overall the food was really good. The ambiance was fine. The only con I have is that our server did not seem very enthusiastic, we didn’t even feel like asking questions about the menu. Onion dolma and the warm gata tart were amazing. My husband loved the octopus sujuk dish. Kayseri mantisi was too aldante for my taste but the tomato sauce was delicious. The pita that comes with the breaking bread dish was too doughy, inside felt like not cooked but the smoked yogurt was amazing. I would definitely recommend for a different style of Mediterranean cuisine experience.

    Food was good and creative. It's the 2nd time I eat there. It was quite noisy and hard to converse but it's a good location for where we live. Our waiter missed one of our orders but it was not worth complaining about since he gave us another dish which was good. I look forward to eating there in the spring when perhaps there will be a new menu.

    We loved the fix menu served for New Year lunch. Midye dolma was amazing and hummus platters, they served halibut with squash in a creative and delicious way. Pleasure meeting the chef Sayat. We brought our bottle of wine and paid $40 cork fee, which is a little high than usual. Anyways worth for the experience. We will be back there soon.

    This was one of the worst meals I have ever paid for in terms of quality of food for price. The main course was flavorless mush. The dessert course dishes were quite frankly disgusting. Deeply disappointing.

    Lovely food and fun menu and beautiful space! Acoustics are not good and it’s super loud, difficult for conversation. Please add panels to the ceiling
