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.

    An intimate space buzzing with positive energy. The food was excellent. It arrived quickly and hot. Cocktails were also excellent. The only reason for 4 stars was the hostess was unfocused and not paying attention. Otherwise, the service, food and ambiance was perfect. Plan to return to enjoy the evening DJ.

    Disclaimer: we are francophiles and came in having already scoured the menu We LOVED our evening at Bon Delire. Two of us sat at the bar and ate so so much and still came out with a bill cheaper than most SF restaurants. We ordered exclusively from the appetizer menu (but ordered a burger for my hubby) and just loved every last bite. Cocktails were great, bartenders were sweet, and it was an overall wonderful experience. Merci!

    My husband & I had an excellent lunch at Bon Delire. Noise level was a bit high but we quickly adjusted to that & had a wonderful time. Our waiter was fantastic as were all of the staff. We will definitely return!

    Although we had to wait a while for our table even when we had a reservation, the staff completely made up for it throughout the meal with a free dessert and champagne. The service was truly spectacular. I was very impressed by the food, all top quality and delicious. Do not miss the croque monsieur and chicken. Everything was amazing and cannot wait to come back.

    Thanks so much for the lovely review and your patience while waiting for your table. We strive to seat all our guests promptly, sometimes in such a snug space it can be challenging. Your understanding was greatly appreciated. We can't wait to see the two of you again soon. Cheers, The Bon Delire Team

    The vibes, food, and service were immaculate. We had the escargot, croque monsieur, steak frites, and chocolate mousse. They all paired perfectly with a bottle of red wine. Courtney was our server, and she was so kind and attentive! Overall, a vibey experience and can’t wait to go back for another date night!

    Wonderful, small space with great vibe. Circular bar seating with tables surrounding the bar makes for a good vibe. Service was attentive and the food was made with care. cocktails were top notch. friendly host/hostess saying even though DJ not playing currently, they'd still be willing to spin some tunes if there is a request. very cool offer. only drawback, and it was a biggie was that we ordered the ribeye steak special and it literally took 2 hours for it to be served. not even sure how that is possible. our rezzie was for 8pm, and it was served at precisely 10pm. says something good about the vibe/atmosphere and overall experience, but the delayed steak definitely started to damper our moods at around the 930pm mark. waiter (named JD) was apologetic and in the end it was fine... steak tasty.
