  • 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: Noosh founders Laura and Sayat Ozyilmaz go big on embracing the Eastern Mediterranean at this Presidio restaurant where the food is just as stunning as the Bay views. 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.

    We had a fantastic night at Dalida. The food was outstanding - best trout dish I’ve ever had and the 12-hour lamb was also a stand-out. But everything was delicious. The wait staff were attentive but not intrusive and the chefs both came out to chat and were incredibly personable. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    We went for brunch this time and the options for entrees are food price but were not our favorite. Chicken was moist but definitely to share. Burger was a little weird flavor wise. Breaking bread and the octopus are still the best things here!

    The food and service was excellent. I wish it weren’t so noisy. It was difficult for my friend and me to hear each other talk.

    Great effort by the staff — our table was delayed, and the team’s hospitality made it so clear that they cared!

    We really enjoyed another celebration dinner here. The food was delicious and a wonderful take on the Mediterranean flavors we love. Once again, the Cypriot Lamb Chops and Breaking Bread were highlights. The personal touches from Chefs Laura and Sayat were much appreciated. We'll be back for our next birthday event!

    Excellent service, servers were very friendly and attentive. Great food, but the roast chicken and pork souvlaki were a little dry. The restaurant was fairly quiet, considering the close table arrangement.

    We waited 35 minutes for a table for which we had a reservation for over a month. There was a foreign object in one of the dishes we ordered and the waiters kept asking us if we were through eating. We felt rushed and the entire experience was unpleasant. It was a friend's birthday, which I noted on the reservation and had to remind the hostess and the waiter. In addition, there was no apology at the end of the meal for everything that went wrong. It was our first time at this restaurant and I can't recommend it.

    I love the food at Dalida. It's flavorful, interesting, and delicious. Today they missed the mark on the artichoke hearts salad (Zeytinyagii Engineer). Instead of a vinaigrette, there was a sauce with a mayonnaise-like flavor (though it's probably some other ingredient, as is so often the case at Dalida). On the other hand, the Kayseri Manti, the Su Borek, and the rice pudding with caramel sauce were all delicious. Great service. The restaurant can get a little noisy when full, but it's not extreme.d I look forward to my next visit.
