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.

    When we arrived for our reservation at 5:30pm two people in our party was running late due to traffic. The hostess was concerned because they had a 2nd seating (at 8:15pm). The waitress wanted us to order even though our 2 other guests have not arrived. She was concerned about the 2nd seating and mentioned it a couple of times This did not bode well for first impression at this restaurant. On top of that they automatically added 20% gratuity to our check. We all felt the service we received was not worthy of 20%.

    Amazing food and I also appreciate the staff for providing us with better sitting, despite last minute booking. I’ve messaged the restaurant during booking process and told them I was 9months pregnant, they accommodated our sitting just perfectly and offered me addition pillows for even more comfort. Everyone was very welcoming and kind

    We had a horrendous experience with two host personnel and then sporadic service from our waiter. Waiter was friendly but unprofessional and not helpful. While we were waiting for our table for a 5:00 reservation we overheard additional guests being mistreated. It’s been a while since we have experienced such terrible service from staff. The food was delicious. Can we skip the people and just get takeout in the future? Kidding. Won’t be returning!

    The food is delicious and creative,not the usual predictable far. The chef owner is from Turkey. The breaking of bread appetizer with various Turkish spread like hummus, smoked red pepper compote, olives and pickled vegetables was such fun to share. I had the Anatolian pasta dish with mushrooms, hazelnuts and winter squash while my friend had lamb ribs.

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the food, service and ambiance at Dalida. Starting with Breaking Bread and Little Gems could have been a simple meal in itself but we enjoyed the Aleppo Half Chicken and Duroc Pork Cheek Souvlaki. We sat at the countertop in the kitchen area and enjoyed watching the sous chefs perform their magic. Will definitely plan another enjoyable experience at Dalida.
