Reviews for Nopa in San Francisco, CA
Absolutely loved the experience! I am on business travel and we decided to come here based on a TikTok I saw. The hosts were so... polite and seated us promptly. Our server, Ashwini, is the most amazing person. Not only was she so sweet, she provided so manyrecommendations from appetizers, entrees, dessert, cocktails, and red wine. Of course we went with all her recommendations andwe were not disappointed. (Plates were cleaned! Glasses finished!) We had the smoked trout to start. I had the Eggplant Parmesanand my colleague had the pork chop. The best part about it was her recommendations were selections I would have neverconsidered, had she not mentioned it. It was an amazing dining experience and I would love to come back during my next visit.The atmosphere was so nice and cozy although it was a full crowd and I loved the music. 10/10 highly recommend.

Here the service is on par if not better than the food. Our waiter, patient and explaining the options, other people who came to... our table with silverware or to clean very smiling ear to ear - all good signs that this place keeps their people happy. Thefood was a standard Californian fare with good mix of some vegetarian options. If you're gluten free and/or vegan, there is notmuch here for you. As vegetarians, everything we ordered tasted wonderful. The appetizers fill you up and we had difficultyfinishing our two entrees we shared between us three. The butter beans with feta, vegetables stew, paparadelle pasta madevegetarian and flatbread were good. We didn't have reservations but we got a table on the sidewalk next to the covered streetsection. We had heaters behind and on top of the table but the San Francisco winds made the dining uncomfortable. If you can,avoid the sidewalk seating. Read more
Absolutely blown away by the food, service, and organization of this restaurant! I love that there are so many different... employees to take care of you (someone to deliver drinks, someone different to take away empty things, someone else to take awayused silverware and wipe down any spills between appetizers and your meal). Everything worked like a well-oiled machine. Themushroom toast was so flavorful and the toast itself had soaked in so much. The pork chop was cooked to perfection - juicy yetslightly crisp on the outside. The roasted strawberries were a pleasant topping. Dessert was the rhubarb cobbler with brownsugar ice cream - sweet but not too sweet an d all the flavors just mingled so well. It was not an overwhelming dessert and Ididn't leave the restaurant feeling weighed down. The server was able to describe the food in a very poetic way that matched howit tasted and was very enticing. I would go back in a heartbeat! Read more
Great spot to talk with friends over great drinks. I loved the fernay all day (Fernet based) and tried the fifth wheel and dirty... martini which were made well. Dessert menu is extensive and I really liked the bright strawberry rhubarb cobbler. Read more
Wow. Delicate yet energetic atmosphere where the food truly enlightens the mood. With a menu rotating on the daily, the... potential for trying new curated dishes is endless. My wife and I ordered cocktails, For The Bees and Dappled Apple. Both strongand perfect for the vibes. For app, we ordered the biscuits with honey and butter, which had a comforting taste to the palate.For dinner, we ordered the Spaghetti Fennel Sausage dish and the Butternut Squash Lasagna. WOW (And that’s all capspurposely). These dishes were unique in their own ways and the best way to describe it is you actually cannot make this at home.These chefs are distinguished in their ability to create food that stands out, and we felt that with every bite. Thank you Nopa,we will see you guys soon. CHEERS MATE Read more
Short but tasteful menu with seasonal options - duck, pasta, veggie stew, etc. I ordered the pork chop and the portion was... surprisingly hefty. Te slab of meat was complimented with kale and baked grape potatoes. The fried chicken smelled so good. Thedrinks menu has some creative cocktails perfect for a cozy winter night in addition to all the wine. Read more
One of the best restaurants I've been to in San Francisco! The food was amazing - delicious, beautifully plated, with huge... portions, including a long list of appetizers great for sharing. They have an extensive wine list and a sommelier that helps youselect the perfect wine. The restaurant itself is stylish and spacious, with a lovely ambience. There's tons of seating bothinside and outside, and their outdoor seating area has been built to last with all the comforts of being indoors, includingproper seating, plenty of heaters, and music. The service was terrific. All in all, a top notch experience. I highly recommendmaking a visit to Nopa and I'll definitely plan to return! Read more
At the begging we wasn't really happy, we needed to wait 30 minutes for our table (reserved, of course) but it was easily... forgotten! Everything that we ordered was so good! We were 5 and ordered about 7 or 8 dishes (entrées) and all of them weregreat. A few of them were suggested by our waiter that was really friendly and helpful. To apologize for the long wait, theygifted us with a portion of fries, one side dish and 5 cookies for dessert, I mean, a kind way to apologize for theinconvenience. The best dinning experience that we had in SF, highly recommended! Read more
