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.

    Love the place. Just the kind of place I like to go to except when trying to catch up with good friend from Italy. The noise level just didn't allow for us to easily. converse and the reunion was flat I really like the food so would go back with my noisy friends to try more of the menu.

    Absolutely delicious. There is a reason this is one of the hardest tables to come by in San Francisco.

    Laura and Sayat have done something really special here. The attention to detail is evident in every dish, beverage, service and decor. There really is no other restaurant In SF I can compare it to. Bravo!

    Loved the overall experience. Sat at Chef's experience table. Who knew how good and tasty humus , seasoned yogurt and other unexpected dishes could be. Flavors so well balanced and will be back in the future.

    We came here after seeing Chef Laura on Top Chef. The restaurant is quite lovely decor-wise. It’s obvious that they paid attention to details like the floral bouquet complimenting the painting behind the hostess stand. We really liked our server, who spent time talking us through the menu and offering her perspective on various dishes. The drink menu was inventive and had a number of non-alcoholic cocktails options. The food was FANTASTIC. Don’t sleep on ordering Breaking Bread with the chubby pita! There were good vegetarian options (we had the Anatolian Erishte and fhe Su Borek which were both pasta dishes). The pistachio coffee and the amazing Layered Baklava finished the dinner on a high note.
