    Great whole fish. The chicken liver Cristini was also memorable.

    Love Delfina's. I have been going there since they originally open some 20-odd years ago. Has always been great and still is. The spaghetti pomodoro and panna cotta are two specialty items!

    Loved it!! My first time there. From when I walked in Derek was so accommodating and the food and the server was super attentive!! Top notch restaurant. Everything was above average. The bread, the pasta tagliatelle, warm castelvetrano olives , monterey bay calamari and the salad and the fish served whole and those butter beans oohlala! Great establishment speaks volumes about why it’s been successful for so long! I’ll be back for sure!!

    We usually have a good experience here but last night we had 2 servers and one was not interested in us at all and the other was 50/50. Food was good except the risotto which was incredibly over salted. We won’t be back in while.

    Fantastic meal at Delfina. We had the octopus, deviled eggs, anchovy toast, red snapper, and the Bottone pasta. Every dish was fantastic. Really looking forward to our next visit!

    Service and food are amazing. Ambience is beautiful. A true SF institution that always feels special and approachable. They did not rush us in anyway, and it was perfect place to have dinner and catch up with a friend.
