Country pork chop

"This chop is so smoky and always nicely cooked."

"This is one of the first things I fell in love with in San Francisco. It's always nicely cooked and tasty. We always end up fighting over who gets to gnaw on the bone."

"This pork chop is brined, grilled and served with seasonal sets. Laurence is a good friend and colleague of mine and I have been going to Nopa for years. The pork chop is juicy, tender and always on point—every time without a hitch. It is always roasted to perfection and comes with delicious accompaniments."

"It's perfectly executed every time and always comes with a delicious seasonal set."

"This is one of my go-to places after work since it's open late. The pork chop always comes out great. It's juicy, perfectly cooked, and has great flavor from the brine. I enjoy their vegetable pairings which change often but sometimes include grilled pears."

"Nopa is always 100-percent consistent. You always know that you can walk in after midnight and have solid food with a great cocktail. Laurence Jossel, the chef, always has a great joke to tell, too."

"If it's midnight, there's about a 99-percent chance you'll end up at Nopa since it's open until 1 a.m. The food is wonderful, the cocktails are terrific and they have one of the smartest wine lists in the city. I gravitate to the pork chop, always perfectly cooked and big enough for two."
