    Had an excellent dinner at Delphina, Mission district , with my spouse and a guest visiting from Zuerich. We were seated promptly and received great service throughout in very comfortable surroundings. The restaurant noise level was moderate and was conducive to effortless conversation. Food presentation and taste were outstanding. Value was good.

    Very noisy - tables are close together so very hard to have a conversation without straining and raising your voice. No privacy - quite cafe like noise experience. Otherwise just outstanding - The service was above and beyond - great wine and cocktail advice.

    Neighborhood gem! Diverse menu which includes tasty gems, homemade pasta, thoughtful meat and fish entrees. The anchovies on toast is a delicious surprise! The fish of the day is a standout. Service is top notch and all staff are pleasant and friendly.

    Another beautiful evening at Delfina. When you arrive the team is so friendly you feel like you’re at home. The prosciutto appetizer is never to be missed, and I love that I can ask the bartender to make me a custom cocktail with a preferred spirit and that I always get something wonderful. Our meal was delicious, as always, and the service exceptional. Three cheers to Caleb for treating us like royalty and making sure we got out in time to make it to City Arts & Lectures. Thank you Delfina— can’t wait until next time.

    Wow! First time in the restaurant proper since pre-Covid and pre-renovation. Three of us went all-in with some alcoholic restraint, splitting a couple of spuntini, one salad, one pasta, one secondo and a contorne, two dolci; we each had a drink or wine each. Ran close to $400 with tip so definitely a special occasion place. Everything was terrific, place is definitely back on our radar!
