   Pretty poor service. Rude wait staff generally. Was ignored at the front reception by two employees talking to each other while we stood there. The waiter for our table was not very friendly. The food took absurdly long to get.

   Wonderful good and very creative menu. The smoked trout latkes were amazing with an incredibly generous portion of perfectly cooked trout. The vegetable tagine was full of Moroccan spices and the almonds were an especially nice addition. My husband & our friend had the pork chop and fried chicken and enjoyed their food as well. The chocolate malted ice cream was meltingly delicious.

   Some of the best hospitality and food I’ve had at NOPA. We celebrated a new job and our 9 year anniversary and our visit was elevated by our server J. I’ve been coming here for 12 years and it never gets old.

   Nopa was a fantastic experience - haven’t been back for a decade and the food and service are as I remembered. Accommodated a seating request and a late guest arrival ; service was friendly and helpful. Food was exceptional. Best porchetta ever tasted; agnolotti was juicy; fried chicken was addicting. Great desserts; good bar experience. Won’t wait so long to return again. Parking is a challenge; take ride share and avoid the stress.

    This was a special evening with Chef Scott Clark, author of the cookbook Coastal so maybe too many things were going on in the kitchen Some things were quite good , the snap pea salad and the gigante beans. The Korean BBQ beef. was a bit overcooked and had not much flavor although the sauce and the Kim Chi with it were great. The charred broccolini also lacked flavor other than garlic. Our Coastal cocktails, a pink peppercorn spritz and the bramble (huckle?) berry old fashion were delicious. the fried dough dessert was good but needed more of the maple mascarpone sauce or maybe a bowl that one could dip the beignets in. I am a big fan of Dad’s Luncheonette so I think that some of these dishes were “off”might have more to do with the event than the chef.
