    During the 1980's the building that houses the popular restaurant NOPA was a laundromat. Appetizing, right?

    Get here just before brunch opens, queue up, and enjoy an absolutely fantastic meal.

    Arriving late into the city? No worries. This place serves dinner until 1 a.m. Reservations highly recommended as Nopa always seems to be busy!

    If you live in NOPA, or are on the hood, and are looking for something to do, check out the local scene, restaurants, bars, shops on Divisadero.

    The custard french toast for brunch is absolutely amazing, but very sweet — you may want to split it.

    Known for their hip and lively atmosphere and clientele, Nopa serves up delicious brunch dishes on the weekends. The queue gets long, so try to think ahead (and put your name down) or prepare to wait.

    Losing their touch over the years. Service has become barely tolerable. Appetizers are solid, entrees mediocre at best. Sit at the bar and get the burger, or do one better—go to Nopalito instead.

    Basically everything, besides the wait. Make friends with the beautiful hostess.

    It's ok. I tried it's burgers and they tasted well but it did not create a wow effect. It's salads though are very good. Good service.

    Their hamburger is life-changing. And don't be fooled by the plain looking french fries - they are amazing!

    Food's alright. If you don't have a reservation there is no order for walkins. You get to hang around the communal table and wait for some get up. Order is not guaranteed nor will they take name to 📞

    Try anything, even if it only sounds okay. There is nothing we've found yet that Nopa does not do amazingly well. A laid-back place for the neighborhood gourmet.

    If you like bubbles be sure to try an Old Cuban at the communal table. Any/all of their flatbreads are delicious.
