Foodspotting: The egg custard tarts here are the best & rival those found in Hong Kong. It’s worth the wait to get a hold of these buttery delicious treats. Just don’t make the mistake of only getting one! - Fiona
Jackson Shih: Of course the egg custard is perfect. But don't overlook the curry chicken bun for a savory taste!
Rosalind Peppy: Egg custard is the best anywhere hands down!!! Their egg is hot and super creamy and almost liquidy. So warm and excellent. Not too sweet, and super large!!!

John Y: highly recommended for brunch: biscuit w/ pumpkin butter; custard french toast; goat cheese bread pudding; soft scramble; mezcal bloody mary [dec 2012]
Bommy: Searched high & low and nopa still has the best burger and fries in sf. Request medium-rare and cheddar cheese. Smoked trout bagel and half order of custard french toast is the perfect brunch.
Noah Weiss: #1 brunch, hands down. Custard French toast is gooey perfection. Savory egg dishes, like with sausage, rock. Sit upstairs for optimal people watching.
Bennett W Wong: Pineapple Buns and Egg Tarts pairs well with coffee. Yes, there is coffee available. FYI: they have moved over to 2684 San Bruno Ave as means of expansion.
Herro Kitty: red bean pastry, custard with raisins, hot dog & green onions, and pork sung roll are some of tha faves.
Tina Z: Excellent egg tarts

Lana Choi: Delicious meal, but I'd skip the egg tart. Was sort of soggy
Sean P: Early tips have said the desserts are disappointing, but they clearly haven't had the Pastel de Nata. Slightly modern take on a classic, perfectly executed. And I grew up eating these in Portugal
Shirin Jafari: Everything is great! Try the polenta cake, and DEFINITELY get the ribs!! So good! For dessert, get Pastel de Nata :) My first time having Portuguese food, and it was delish!😍

Eater: Expect an updated menu with hearty seasonal fare like fish, steak, and burgers. Breakout items: dark and stormy slushies for sipping, and freshly-fried crullers with creamy frozen custard for dessert.
Amber: Frozen Custard with Egg Yolk Caramel ($6 + $1)
The Tastes that Make the City: The frozen custard with egg yolk carmel sauce is the best custard in SF, making our list of "The Tastes That Make the City: SF Edition." Read more.

ZAGAT: Save room (if you can) for the egg custard tart.
Amy L: Amazing! Soup dumplings were unbelievable, get the sesame ball and egg custard tart for dessert
greenie mcgee: If you want the Goldfish Dumpling, you need to go to Rincon Center. Also, you can order dimsum by the piece. So you can get a half order of Egg Custards.
