  • 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: 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.

    It was was a busy evening. We sat at the chef’s table and watched as they prepared food. It was a bit crowded, but interesting and the food was delicious! Our service was very good as well. We ordered the “chef’s choice” with a wine paring, a great experience!

    Miscommunication with service started off experience on the wrong foot. They did try to make it better but the food was hit and miss with flavors.

    DALIDA ES SIN DUDA UNO DE LOS MEJORES RESTAURANTES DEL NORTE DE CALIFORNIA, SUS DUEÑOS LAURA Y SAYAT SON EXTRAORDINARIOS EN LA SELECCIÓN DE SUS PLATILLOS CON UNA PRESENTACIÓN CREATIVA Y UN SABOR DELICIOSO. UN LUGAR CON NINGUNA PRETENSIÓN, HONESTO. UN SERVICIO IMPECABLE EN UN SITION MARAVILLOSO EN EL PRESIDIO PARK. LO RECOMIENDO MPLIAMENTE.

    Had seats at the bar, which was the most entertaining part of the meal, the mixologist was manning the most beautiful creations! Had a couple myself - very good! Breaking bread was delicious and hanger steak was perfectly executed! The beet salad was fresh and citrusy and a perfect side to our hanger steak! Overall, great food and friendly staff - looking forward to my next visit!

    My waiter and the noise ruined my birthday dinner. He was not friendly at all with the personality of a wet rag. The volume in this place was so bad that I couldn’t hear my partner without having to lean forward to talk to him never being able to sit back and relax. The food was good but we were not wowed by anything. It’s very unfortunate as I had high hopes. Definitely won’t be back nor can I recommend.
