Bon Delire does a great job of bringing a little slice of France to the Embarcadero. The decor and ambiance is decidedly very French, in a good way! The food is excellent and reasonably priced by San Francisco standards, the service is friendly and welcoming and the vibe is lively and fun! Highly recommend the deviled eggs, the escargot and the roast chicken but honestly, we loved everything we ordered! We can't wait to return!

An absolute delight! Everyone was incredibly thoughtful, the food was delicious, and chatting with the chefs was very enjoyable! The only downside is how pricey it is to dine in San Francisco, but that is to be expected.
