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.

    Our meal was good, but not great. For all the hype about Dalida, we were a bit disappointed. Also disappointing was the fact that our water glasses were only refilled once, at the end of dessert.

    Have visited Dalida a few times and it’s been consistently amazing - from the food, to the wine/cocktail program, and the awesome staff! It’s a beautiful space too - and extra lovely on a sunny day! Thanks for the warm and inviting experience and delicious food!

    Really beautiful food, although over all service was good the server didn’t seem to know how to describe anything on the menu when asked, lucky for us we ordered things anyway and they didn’t disappoint.

    Overall the food was really good. The ambiance was fine. The only con I have is that our server did not seem very enthusiastic, we didn’t even feel like asking questions about the menu. Onion dolma and the warm gata tart were amazing. My husband loved the octopus sujuk dish. Kayseri mantisi was too aldante for my taste but the tomato sauce was delicious. The pita that comes with the breaking bread dish was too doughy, inside felt like not cooked but the smoked yogurt was amazing. I would definitely recommend for a different style of Mediterranean cuisine experience.
