My first time visiting and it was great. San Francisco so you're paying SF prices but the food was good, the atmosphere was great, and the drinks were tasty. I would go back

I usually go during the week to order something small and a drink after work to hang out with friends!

Came here solo to scope out good places to take visiting friends/family. Great service, vibes, and drinks, but food was incredibly overpriced for value. Ordered two apps, each over $20 and neither memorable. If I come again I’ll stick to cocktails and bread/olives.

I would highly, highly recommend visiting Nopa. The food, service, and atmosphere were all incredible. Super cool space and the daily changing menu had so many amazing options to choose from. I had a duck leg that was so incredibly tender and my husband had a 9-hour bolognese that he raved about. I’d go back in a heartbeat!

Had duck and the burger. The duck was incredible that melt in your mouth. Did feel forgot by service many times and had to wave down servers just to place orders.

Do not order the fried chicken! I had heard a lot about this place and was pretty disappointed when I ate here. The chicken was 4 huge pieces of chicken and that’s all, and unfortunately would’ve been better off getting Popeyes across the street. The staff weren’t great either. Ended up with a $150 bill for mediocre fried chicken, fries an appetizer and a couple drinks. Yikes

The food there was okay….i have been there twice. The staff is nice but they aren’t really that authentic (maybe it’s because it’s hard to focus when there’s so many people). I think they should add more seasoning to their food but I’m Caribbean….maybe I’m biased or maybe they are trying to play it safe

We enjoyed our dinner at Nopa. We both had fresh margaritas for drinks and they were delicious. The appetizer we ordered was delicious (I can’t remember the name, the menu changes regularly). The bolognese type dish my girlfriend ordered was also very good. The burger has a very good wood grilled taste, but is extremely dry, I would recommend another dish. The French fries are the perfect amount of crisp. Overall a very good meal, but only 4 stars due to the food taking a little while to come out and having to sit outside on the patio during a rather cold night in San Fran.
Controversial opinion, but the pappardelle is definitely the stand out item (sorry burger!). Also loved the goat cheese crostiniStaff are A+, they have a good knack for checking in without hovering. Shout out to Ashley!Great for cute dates, groups of 4-6, and also to post up at the bar on a weeknight.An SF staple for a reason <3

Food overall was great, but the burger and morrocan chicken felt too "simple" for the pricepoint. Overall a great restuarnat. The mushroom toast, salmon latkes, pasta dish (not mine, dont recall), and pork were all fantastic. Outside of that we had an issue where it took over an hour to get our entrees. Not sure if they were short staffed or if there was a kitchen issue. They never said why it took so long.

It is a place with excellent customer service. They have a pretty interesting menu. I ordered a type of pasta I don't remember the name with meat, it seemed ok to me, but it didn't impact me as perhaps I thought. The dessert was excellent, a very unique and original dessert.

Very tasty food and drink offerings, and great service. The pork chop was outstanding. We were particularly pleased with the extensive wine list and extremely knowledgeable sommelier. (Very few restaurants have them these days.)
