   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.

   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.

   We made our own tasting menu by sharing the little gems salad with preserved lemon dressing, a pasta called Anatolian Erishte, Cypriot lamb chops with hummus & broccoli rabe with a muhammara type dip. plus had to get 1 of the amazing puffy pitas to enjoy the leftovers of hummus & muhammara. 2 glasses of wine, 1 Bosnian & 1 Greek. A lovely surprise dessert to celebrate an 80th birthday to end the lovely dinning opportunity. Will Return.

   I was so excited to make a dinner reservation at Dalida because I had watched Top Chef, and I wanted to support Chef Laura! My boyfriend and I celebrated his birthday there and Alta really took care of us. We got the chef’s menu, which we thought was such great value! They don’t really tell you what you’re going to get, until it has arrived at your table. It was really fun to keep trying every delicious surprise! All the food was very tasty and beautiful. I loved the stuffed mussels and the bread with assorted dips, in particular. We also got a few drinks, I got the Yogi Bear (NA) and my boyfriend got the Horse Warrior. Both were delicious and we were very pleased at how quickly the bar turned out our drinks. At the end, of course, they brought us a complimentary birthday dessert with a candle on it, in addition to the 2 desserts included in the Chef’s menu! Needless to say, we were stuffed. The ambiance was great, the room was well put together, and the service was all very attentive! 10/10 would recommend, for sure!

   This was our second time in one week for a birthday lunch celebration. 5 of us enjoyed a smashing good lunch. With a mix of carnivore, vegetarians and vegans we all found lip smacking entrees and dessert. Fatoush, burgers, pasta and fries to share it was a delight from beginning to end. Our waitperson McKenzie was such a superb server. We wanted to have her sit and join us if we could have. Going to head back again soon.

   The fresh pita was the best thing that we tried. I had to send my stuffed onion back as it was not hot, barely lukewarm. The fries were crispy but had too much seasoning salt on them for my taste. I thought the prices were quite high for the items we ordered, except the fries which were reasonable at $9. $27 for the stuffed onion was quite high. My companion asked for more hot water for his tea and they charged him for another order of tea. I would not hurry back. It was nice to be at the Presidio and see the grounds and the beautiful views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the shoreline.

    We chose the tasting menu to celebrate our anniversary. We were happy with the food choices, however we were seated 30 mins past our reservation. We were given two free glasses of cava for the inconvenience, but we’d much rather be seated than left standing by the bar. The ambiance was elegant, and I’d recommend for a special occasion.
