   Excellent service. Great drinks. Very good food, but heavier than I was anticipating. Was likely what we ordered.

   Apps were great server was great but enrees took more than an hour to arrive. Server offered a treat due to delay and brought the one thing on menu I could not eat. Sides arrived a half hour before entree - had to ask to have them replaced. When chicken finally arrived it was encased in a half inch of batter/crust that slid off entire piece on first bite and was unpleasantly hard and tasteless.

   Outstanding. My favorite restaurant in SF and it feels like it’s somehow gotten even better. Every dish we ordered was delicious. Best pork chop I’ve ever had!

    It’s not Nopa we used to know before the pandemic. It’s completely a new cuisine and no more delicious food and drinks. Not our favorite place anymore and definitely won’t be back.

    This used to be our favorite restaurant, but today the food was surprisingly not as good as it used to be. The appetizer selection was so bready, and the latkes were so plain tasting. The fried chicken was dry & overcooked, the duck breast was chewy and the burger was nothing spectacular! Must be a different chef tonight

    We had read about Nips as we were planning a trip to San Francisco. Everything we read sounded like our kind of place and it definitely was!! We chose to select from the appetizers so we could try a variety of items. The Dungeness crab salad was exceptional along with the chicory salad and mushroom toast! Our server was also excellent - efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. This was a highlight to our trip - would highly recommend!!

    Phenomenal dinner at NOPA. Haven't been in a few years, need to make this a regular place now that the world is opening up again. Sommelier was super helpful and made a great wine recommendation. Dinner was so delicious! Moroccan fried chicken, French fries (some of the best we have ever had), and the mushroom ricotta toast was so freakin' good! Went thinking we would get our usual favorites (gigante beans, olives, steak), decided to mix it up and were so happy.

    Nopa had excellent service and we enjoyed the potato latke with smoked trout and beets very much. However, the duck appetizer lacked flavor and was mediocre and disappointing. The best appetizer by far was the spinach leek soup. So flavorful and creamy with the right blend of spices. The fettuccine Bolognese was delicious and quite filling. The fried chicken had an excellent crispy flavor profile and was juicy and tender with a hearty portion. The side of carrots with curry pecan glaze were outstanding as well. The atmosphere was loud and energetic, and it was difficult to hear my partner, but a fun place for drinks and dinner. It was pricey but for high quality food in SF that's to be expected.

    Based on how packed the early seating was mid-week, Nopa doesn't really need another 5 star review, but I will post it, any way. I reached out to my millennial niece who knows all the great SF restaurants for a birthday celebration with my bestie girlfriend. Nopa, one of her top 3, ended up being the perfect celebratory choice. The wait staff is so friendly, professional, well-trained and patient—we never felt rushed and Mel was just Fab. We ordered drinks and then shared a salad, fish and vegetarian dishes, and the best ice cream I ever tasted for dessert (I’m not going to admit to having put their perfection French fries on the table for early snacking with our drinks). Everything tasted absolutely delicious. Perfectly prepared. Though the restaurant was fully packed, we were able to hear each other perfectly. For me, Nopa is a true Celebration restaurant and I can’t wait to celebrate at Nopa’s again!

    The burger was reliably delicious. The fried chicken was okay. Very flavorful herb brine used for the chicken but the crunchy outer piece was so hard it could cut the roof of your mouth. Wood baked gigante beans were a surprise. So good.

    NOPA needs a reboot. Both the service were spotty. The burger was served cold, overcooked and had an “off” look, taste and texture to it. It had a greasy, foie gras feel to it vs the texture of ground beef. It was left uneaten with no acknowledgment from staff (it was taken off the bill). The pork chop, on the other hand came bloody, not rare but bloody. There was very little follow-up by the waiter/servers and they gave us someone else’s bill at the end. NOPA needs to get back to the basics: good food, good service. A real disappointment.

    We had an excellent dinner at Nopa! Our waiter was super attentive and very helpful to us in selecting our cocktails and food items. We had the bread, which was divine, the fried brussel sprouts, warm goat cheese crostini, country pork chop, which was very large, the cheese burger, and the pappardelle with bolognese and butternut squash. All of the main dishes were large enough to share and we ended up taking a lot of food home. We also had the salted chocolate chip cookies for dessert and they were warm and very good. A perfect ending to the meal. Not too big but just a little something sweet. I have been to Nopa several times over a period of years and never been disappointed.

    We came here for my birthday dinner. I booked a 6 pm reservation and arrived ~5:30 pm to see a long line already queued. The host staff was terrific and quickly processed everyone once they opened their doors. They were kind enough to seat us 15 minutes earlier than our reservation. The restaurant was nearly full by 6 pm. Support staff was milling about checking customers' needs from beginning to end. We loved the food. My husband ordered the mushroom toast and porkchop. I had the goat cheese appetizer and fried chicken. Portions were generous. Wines, however, were not our favorite, and unfortunately, we could not find anything on the dessert list, which was a bummer given it was my birthday dinner. Unfortunately, the service from our server was the bare minimum and did not match the efforts of the rest of the team at NOPA. Overall, it was the bare minimum level of waiter service, not up to NOPA or SF standards. I will send NOPA more specific feedback directly. Heads up, give yourself ample time to find parking in this neighborhood. We drove around for about 15 minutes before we found one a few blocks away.

    Consistently one of the best restaurants in San Francisco. Loved the potato latka trout small plate, mushroom toast, and gigante beans. Wine list is AWESOME and so is the team there. People who work there are passionate about their work and lovely to be around. I always feel at home at Nopa. Thanks, Nopa Team!!!
