Restaurants near AMSI NOPA Alamo Square

My husband and I have been wanted by to go to Nopa for over a year now, but reservations have been hard to get. I finally tried to get one for my husband’s birthday and we were in luck. The wait was worth it. The drinks and food was ABSOLUTELY incredible. Everything we ordered was delicious, and we can’t wait to go back. What a GEM!

Was super amazing as always, but we didn’t get any Yorkshire pudding! We didn’t realize until we were pretty much done eating so we didn’t ask about it, but big bummer because it’s my husbands favorite part! Otherwise; great experience and the food was amazing

Cocktails and bartender were great. Tasty apps and pizza.

Zuni Cafe was just what we hoped it would be—outstanding. The garlic bread with burrata, peppers and onion was outstanding and the soup was very good. The halibut and duck leg mains were excellent. The fries (string potatoes) were delivered late and, frankly, weren’t as good as they looked. The pavlova dessert was a good way to cap the meal. We definitely would go back again.

Well, great that Che Fico lowered their "SF Business Mandate" dining penalty to 5% of the bill rather than 10% prior, but they made up for it by hiking their prices. Apparently the high priced entrees can be shared (including the $128 Lamb Loin entree) but if that is the case, then perhaps the menu should detail that that they are suitable for sharing. The pizza's are pretty special, but not $32 special for flour, water, cheese, tomato paste, etc. The real zinger is the drinks which at $20 each is a stretch (especially given there is another 5% on top, plus tax, then gratuity so figure ~ $26 for a drink). The bar staff are very impressive as are the rest of the team who I had any contact with. Overall, its a great spot, just be prepared to spend ~ $170+ each for a meal and a few drinks.
