   After following Bon Delire on IG for the past two months, we decided to pull the trigger and make dinner reservations. The hostess was most warm and friendly and welcomed us to BD. We sat at the bar (our favorite place to dine) and the owner Kais Bouzidi went above and beyond to ensure us some bar seats The menu hit on all of our favorite french treats, and the wines by the glass stayed on point with a good selection of French wines. We shared the speck and chicken croquettes, truffle fries, belgian endive and blue cheese salad. One of the stars of the menu was the Pain Maison & Cultured Butter- top notch! It is a high energy spot with vinyls spinning and friends gathering post-work. The bartenders made great food recommendations, the service did not quite hit the mark. It is possible due to the fact there were only two of them (servicing the dining room and bar) If you are looking for a great neighborhood gem with a Paris left-bank vibe definitely, hit up Bon Delire

   I have been a few times now. The food quality and service are excellent and even more important, consistent! They are doing a great job.

   Bartender Perry is a rockstar. As was our waitress. Don’t know her name.

   Came for dinner before a concert at the Warfield. Steak was great, fries could have been better. Vintage martini was nice and cold, oysters not my favorite as they were too big for my liking. Recommend coming right at 5pm when the sun begins to set, creates nice warm ambiance in the restaurant and love the music selection! Will come back to try the brunch menu.

   Reservation for brunch. First visit. Attractive bar area. Waiter greeted us and brought water then disappeared. We were first seated and it took over 30 min.to place our order and be served our wine. Food good, fresh. Two entrees came out cold and returned to kitchen. The Manager friendly and very quick to respond. Food good enough that we would try again.

   This was a beautiful train ride that derailed into a dystopic horror where I wondered where the conductor went. We had a young waitress in training who was followed around by an older waiter who read us specials off a board. Cute. Drinks were fast, endive salad and escargots were tasty. Steak frites - we saw another table get theirs. Then another. I asked and our waitress said it would be out in 1-2. Turned into 15. More steak frites - at least 4 or 5 - passed us by. I flagged the head waiter. No response. Finally our waitress came by. She became defensive when I asked if the order had been placed; she claimed she was not going to “take one for the kitchen” and gushed about how they were short staffed. Ok - I just wanted to know how much longer. Steak finally came, unsliced. Pooled blood when I cut into it as it had not rested. Come on - for a $62 steak? Waitress finally comped our dessert. Whoever is the head waiter just stared as the patron next to us tried to squeeze in and out between our tiny tables. No help there. After they left, the busboys came and kept the tables the same distance. The next party complained getting in. At the bar, two professional photographers photographed food. Seemed liked an odd pretense when diners were outside with the rain. Beautiful space and tasty food (when it arrives) but way too awkward for us to bother going back unless it does a 180 with the service. Maybe it’ll suffice for tourists but hard to see sophisticated diners with plenty of options in SF appeased.

   Great spot, really fun Friday night vibe. Music a little too loud for the size of the space.
