- OTOpenTable DinerSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoGreat experience. It’s my first time here in Biscuit and Blues. The check in is easy: I just provided the front desk my name and he verified my reservations and issued our tickets. The venue is small but very cozy. We were able to sit at the back centered to the stage. The atmosphere was great. Everyone was enjoying the show; of course, Gunhild was fabulous! The food was so so, but we were here for the show and not for a dining experience, we were fine with it. Overall, it’s a great place, we had a great time there!More infoBiscuits and BluesPrice: Expensive• Southern• Downtown / Union Square•4.7
- RRohanSan Francisco Bay Area •11 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoNopa is a really special place. It does everything SO well. I will start with the food. Their menu stays interesting over time with new dishes regularly introduced with the seasons and what’s seasonally available. The ingredient quality and preparation are really next level and I don’t think there is a single thing on the menu that anyone would not enjoy. The flavor of every dish is always surprising in a wonderful way with interesting combinations and textures. And plating is, of course, just beautiful. And my god, don’t just order one dish per person; share! You will be wowed. Their mainstay burger should not be missed either. If you’re into mixed drinks or wine, again, Nopa is standout. And even if you don’t drink, there are mocktails that I’m confident you’ll enjoy. Next let’s talk about the staff. Nopa has such a special and wonderful culture. Their entire staff is very well versed in the ingredients and preparation of their food. They’re also extremely kind and accommodating. There seems to be a genuine enthusiasm and shared belief that they make great food, and I would agree. They have opinions and can definitely suggest wine and beverage pairings to what you order. They know where ingredients were sourced from. And their attention to detail is also remarkable. I made a note on our reservation that we’d love a table instead of the high table if one came available and true to form, they came through. Someone took time to read the comment I had left! If you have a chance to dine here, take it. Even if you don’t have a reservation, there is a high table and bar area that may be able to accommodate a drop in. It’s a lovely atmosphere and always a joy to be a patron here. Thank you Nopa staff for the unique place you’ve created here.More infoNopa - San FranciscoPrice: Expensive• Californian• North Panhandle / USF•4.6

- RrobertVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •69 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoFrom the onset of our arrival we were warmly greeted by the hostess and owner. We were given a lovely table upstairs near the window and had wonderful appetizers of warm bread, lobster bisque soup and the amuse bouche, which was a tasty olive spread. Our meals were both lamb, one with the bone marrow supplement and boy was that tasty. Our wine accompaniment was the lovely bordeaux and newer lighter red wine, both great pairing with the lamb. Additionally we each had desserts of profiteroles and warm apple crisp with creme fraiche. A jewel right down town, who knew!!!!More infoBouchePrice: Expensive• French• Downtown / Union Square•4.6
