Be sure to order the sopaipillas for dessert -- they're amazing! The cleanest way to eat them is to rip off the corner and pour the caramel inside.
Anessa DaileyDecember 13, 2010If the bar top is full dine at the chefs counter one of the best spots in the house. Try the domaine Christian Moreau Chablis the acid will blow your mind plus great pairing with any of their dishes!
Stephen MokDecember 5, 2014OK, I know I sound like a broken record given all the other tips… but you just cannot go wrong with the delicious, juicy pork chop!
Chelsea QuirinoSeptember 15, 2014the roasted strawberries with yogurt is insanely good. get a cardamom bun to share!
Medium rare burger, fries with a surprise dipping aioli each time, several specialty cocktails = my all-around favorite SF restaurant.
Daniel HowellsNovember 2, 2015We were able to walk straight in and grab two seats at the bar at 7pm on a Friday night. Quite surprised but it's possible.
Pork chop--the best pork you'll have ever tasted!! Burger--soo juicy! Fried sardines--get two orders! Fried brussels sprouts w lemon--wow. Dessert: hands down the sopaipillas with caramel sauce.
Brad TJanuary 5, 2013True, 0ork chop is def no joke but if its your first go for something else. PC is always on the menu sans Tues so you can always come back.
Flávia LessaSeptember 13, 2014Trout salad and they also have the best burger in town. Everything tastes homemade!
Lauren CantorDecember 29, 2015Got the Brussels sprouts, kale salad, targine, and the most amazing chocolate tart
- For brunch on weekends arrive by latest 10am. There will be a queue, but you'll definitely get a table as soon as they open
Karina NJune 25, 2018Their weekend brunch offerings include saffron honey brioche buns, oven baked eggs and Moroccan spiced lamb.
JonJuly 26, 2014Weekend brunch - grab a coffee from the Mill a few doors down, then rock up here at about 10:15 to snag a spot at the bar.
Mehmet AkdemirJanuary 6, 2014It's an updated take on the Zuni formula, with the success to show. Both neighborhood standby and destination restaurant, Nopa continues to grow admirably under Chef Jossel.
Thiago NoronhaJanuary 6, 2014Gets really busy on Sundays - make reservations. Just had the Bratwurst with white beans and brussel's sprouts. Delicious!
Jesse AtkinsonAugust 31, 2014Solid brunch spot. Reservation is a must. French toast is killer. Reasonably priced by San Francisco brunch standards.
Lily LiangSeptember 7, 2013Awesome place! Food is amazing! Can't go wrong with flatbreads. Their cocktails are pretty good. Sopaipillas are to die for!
Elliot ChanceMarch 15, 2016This is hipster-fine-dining. The place is open until 1am and really gets pumping by then.
Tim PursellAugust 6, 2014Soups are always good. Great salads too. Talk to the server. They won't steer you wrong. Great late night hot spot.
NickJuly 8, 2015Get the pork chop and cap the meal with the blue bottle cocktail - their take on an espresso martini
Emily FaraoneJune 5, 2016Delicious French toast! An amazing staff that loves the food and genuinely cares about your experience.
Trevor HillOctober 18, 2015The burger is excellent. The patty is thick and cooked perfectly. By far one of the best burgers in the city
The poached egg, collard greens, and ham dinner appetizer is fantastic. It's like breakfast for anytime. Wow. Noms.
Emily KaneJanuary 5, 2016Creative and delicious dishes, but be prepared to wait an absurd amount of time at any hour of any day.
- The Tastes that Make the CityJanuary 28, 2015The wood grilled hamburger is the best burger in SF, making our list of "The Tastes That Make the City: SF Edition." Read more
Great fresh California food, nice cocktails, good for sharing. French toast for brunch is like dessert.
Jonathan OrtizNovember 14, 2012Bar none... Best broccoli I've ever had in my life (fire grilled broccoli covered in lemon olive oil with shaved anchovy bread crumbs) Order it.
Experiences by GroupMeAugust 28, 2012They tell you the dining room wait is two hours but head to the bar and hold out for ten minutes -- lots of room and you can enjoy the whole menu there.
LaurenAugust 16, 2014Outstanding brunch menu especially the Tasso ham with creamed corn and French toast(a half order is huge.)
DanAugust 8, 2014It's been said before, but the pork chop is astonishing (and enormous). In summer see if the off-menu salmon collar is available.- Raghav GulatiJuly 10, 2016Pork chop, burger, I could go on and on. Seasonal menu, witty banter with wait staff, a strong bar scene that doesn't disappoint...
On occasion they'll offer you complimentary warm scones if you find yourself at the bar in the post-brunch, pre-dinner timeframe. Best brunch in all of SF.
Wade BurrellAugust 8, 2014Amazing food and drinks. Service was too notch. Be sure to book a reservation well in advance.
Open late so you can eat great. Get the little fried fishes.
Fran SuMarch 21, 2016Agree, the pork chop is good. Love the energy. Great people watching on 2nd floor balcony.
Try the Soft Scrambled Eggs - Come for the perfect eggs; stay for the Johnnycakes with Jalapeño butter. (via @Foodspotting)
IrisNovember 28, 2012grab a drink at the bar if you're waiting on the table. bartender really knows how to make the cocktails. order the pork chop, flatbread, and burger.
Eric BenjaminNovember 15, 2014Get the goat cheese appetizer and save some cheese to put on the burger you should also get.
Kian LaviNovember 14, 2017Where to start? The rabbit loin, the burger, the WARM MARINATED OLIVES. It's all amazing
Guillaume PNovember 23, 2014Yum ! Everything was just... excellent ! And very nice ambiance. PS: don't forget to book early !
Kelsey KotzebueFebruary 26, 2017Brunch cocktails are spot on. Mezcal Bloody Mary. I never order biscuits but here it is an exception.
Food & WineMay 17, 2011Star chef Laurence Jossel’s commitment to sourcing locally means he uses beef from nearby Bernard Ranches and Becker Lane Organic pork belly to make his house-smoked bacon.
Ed JohnsonMarch 24, 2013Ask for one of the 4 bar seats directly in front of the kitchen, so you can see the dishes prepared while you decide.
erin ashleyFebruary 6, 2013Try the Bacon burger - Bacon burger with blue cheese, amazing. Lots of flavor and the fries were delicious #yummy
Jessica MooreAugust 5, 2014Best pork chop you will ever eat, according to my boyfriend. Also, the salmon is like butta. A+
Kate RothenDecember 27, 2011Ignore all desserts. Get the Bo Peep cheese and stone fruit compote, and a glass of the Barolo Chinato (think port and amaro have a baby). Swoon.
Amy MixaSeptember 13, 2015The goat cheese crostini, broccoli cooked with anchovies, and the pork chop are amazing!!!!
Kevin ThompsonNovember 27, 2018Excellent. Casual atmosphere and delicious food. Pasta and seafood exceptional. Would come back!
John McBrideOctober 18, 2014For brunch, don't miss the custard French toast. It's the most delicious and decadent breakfast I've had in recent memory.
