nopa is a San Francisco gathering place north of the Panhandle, serving urban rustic food and specializing in organic wood-fired cuisine.
Have been for dinner, and it's great - but it's an even better brunch spot. The custard French toast was on the 2012 7x7 100 Things to Eat Before You Die list -- and I'm glad I ate it.
Serving up Blue Bottle Coffee and morning cocktails can never hurt. Share the French Toast and you'll be happy.
The food is amazing and the staff is incredibly friendly when trying to help you get a last minute table at this always packed restaurant. There's even a good chance that a couple of spots will open up at the community table while you wait.
