Bon Délire’s chic yet approachable atmosphere draws inspiration from the cafés, lounges, and bistros of Paris. The interior boasts a sculpted horseshoe-shaped wooden bar, plush banquettes, and vibrant, European-imported furnishings that invite intimate dining and lounging. Guests can enjoy indoor seating with views of the Bay Bridge, or relax at the outdoor cafe-style seating, framed by planter boxes and umbrellas, perfect for people-watching along the Embarcadero.
At night, the space comes alive with flickering projections of vintage French films and a relaxed, nostalgic soundtrack of throwback French and American tunes, making Bon Délire a sophisticated yet cozy setting for private and semi-private events.

    The overall experience at Bon Délire was mediocre. Despite having a reservation, we waited over 20 minutes for our table. I had to personally inquire about being seated, as I was accompanied by two elderly guests who were left standing. The front hostess staff was dismissive and did not offer any viable solutions, while the manager showed little urgency in resolving the situation. Once seated, our waiter provided excellent service. However, the timing of our meal service was inconsistent—some entrées arrived first, while others took an additional 10 minutes to be served. Given these issues, I would be unlikely to return and cannot recommend this restaurant to others.

    Food was high quality and service was efficient and friendly. On the downside, tables are tiny as are portions. Prices are high but I guess that's SF for you. Looking at about $37 all in for a small portion of duck confit served with a few bites of beans.

    We loved this place. The food was rich in flavor but reasonable in size. We only shared hor dourves which was perfect. The cocktails were also excellent. I look forward to checking out their happy hour at some point.

    Terrific bistro. Limited but nice menu. Be sure to try the butter. Comes from Vermont. Service and management are top notch. Highly recommended.

    Excellent food and location. Loved the Caesar salad- lettuce was fresh and crisp and the dressing was perfectly balanced. The New York steak was succulent although the fries were nothing special, even with the truffle upgrade. In contrast to the amazing food, service was very slow. We ordered a bottle of wine at the beginning of our meal and it wasn’t served until midway through the dinner, after multiple inquiries. The food came out very slowly, took 3 hours to complete the meal. Luckily we were not in a hurry.

    Great service as always from the entire staff. Started at happy hour and stayed for dinner. We ordered the oysters, French gin & to, and the poulet rôti which is awesome great portion for 1 but also big enough to split. Overall great atmosphere.
