    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!

    Fantastic!!! I had booked this a month ago for 8 for a business event. We ended up with 11 and the hostess was so gracious and did her magic and fitted us in. We had brilliant service and the food was absolutely the best I have had in CA. Every guest enjoyed their meal and were still talking about it the next day!! Thankyou for such a great experience

    I was excited to check out this new place in Japantown and it did not disappoint. We had duck tacos and pork belly Benedict & they were delicious! Duck tacos were my favorite - savory and complex. The menu is mostly Asian fusion and the kimchi is house made (obvs in the name) and sooo good. Who knew kimchi & hollandaise combine to delicious effect. Cocktails were great too. Best of all was the server. So kind, friendly, and super fast. Also, we went for brunch and there was an entire baby group in there and it was not even loud. So everyone go check out the Fermentation Lab!!
