    The service is always stellar, cocktails were on point, and the fried little fish reminded me of the original ones where the batter is a lot lighter than what I’ve seen for the past year. Couldn’t be happier Nopa is the best restaurant in San Francisco.

    The empanadas were the perfect starter and the sauces were both smokey and bright, the beet salad earthy and filling and the carbonara was creamy and satisfying. We also ordered garlic bread which was more butter than bread and still crunchy, such decadent goodness - cheese, garlic, butter! The gelato was amazing, we got one scoop dark chocolate with chocolate bits and one scoop pistachio with toasted pistachios. Each delicious and better together! We plan to return for dinner in a few weeks when we're able to breathe again! Oh and the service was spectacular!

    Great spot when entertaining vegans and vegetarians. The owner/chef personally delivers the dishes to your table and helps your ordering process so the dishes complement each other without filling up on ones that include bread.
