    Butter Chicken, Garlic Naan, Salmon Tikka Masala
    Lexie A.

    Trisara has AMAZING food and service. I got the butter chicken and masala tea. My husband got the salmon tikka masala and garlic naan. Our waiter gave us so many recommendations, was attentive, friendly, and even treated us to a free dessert! I definitely would recommend this place to anyone traveling to SF!

    Very fast and friendly service. Waiter comes to check in on you often and make sure you're doing okay! Smaller restaraunt, but usually has space. Super solid indian food as well! FOOD: Garlic Naan (7/10) - Solid garlic naan, but a bit too crispy / burnt for my liking. Still goes well with the curry Chicken Tikka Masala (9/10) - One of the better ones that I've had in the Bay Area! You can adjust your spice level as well :)

    Chicken Momo

    I first went to Trisara after work to catch up with friends. There was plenty of seating around 6pm, and the service was fast too. We went for the Chicken Jhol Momo and Butter Chicken. The momos were really juicy and slathered in a nice tangy sauce. The butter chicken was also pretty solid, it had the familiar creamy, tomoatoey flavors one would expect. My main qualm is the lack of spice in both dishes, as I've come to expect in Indian/Nepali foods

    Came here for a quick bite while in the area. Service is great. I will say food is just okay. Not the best south Asian food I've had but gets the job done. I went especially for the momos and they were just okay. Yummy but I wouldn't come back for them.

    Came here for a quick bite for dinner with friends. The service was nice, food doesn't take that long to come out. The okra was okay, it tasted kind of stringy like it was a little old. The garlic naan was very greasy. But the two main protein dishes we got were tasty and had good flavor. With half the dishes being okay, idt I'd come back.

    Garlic Naan

    I visit SF fairly often for work and everytime I do, I make sure to try a different Indian restaurant. It's one of my favorite foods and I love trying new spots while traveling. It had been a minute since I had tried Nepali - Indian food so when I discovered this restaurant on Yelp, I decided to give it a go. It was only a few blocks from my hotel and their menu looked great. I went with my favorites - samosa, garlic naan, and vegetable korma. It was ready and waiting for me when I arrived and everything was packaged well. The samosas were perfectly fried with a delicious filling of potatoes and green peas. They came with a tamarind sauce for dipping. When I order these they typically come with a mint chutney of some sort, so I would have loved to have that option as well. The garlic naan was a wee bit too hard in some spots, but the chewiness was spot on and it was a great vessel for my korma. The korma itself wasn't super flavorful, but it was creamy and the vegetables were cooked just right. The serving size was also pretty hefty. I found the prices of everything to be extremely reasonable and ordering online was easy. While it wasn't one of my favorite spots, it was yummy and filled me up and even left me with some leftovers.

    Chicken Momo

    Came here for lunch with coworkers. We got chicken momo, goat curry and okra. The servings looked small when it first got to our table but turns out it was just enough for our table of three. None of the spices were overpowering. Service was fantastic. Just keep in mind it takes some time to cook the dishes so probably can't come here if you're on a strict lunch break. Make sure you have ample time to wait.

    Mango Lassi
    Kumar V.

    This place deserves 5 star and I have good reasons for it. It is a Nepalese place but you will find the menu pretty similar to Indian. So what's the difference - it is how Nepalese food is made. I tried the Spinach chicken and I can totally feel authentic Nepalese taste. More turmeric, slightly higher salt, super soft chicken likely cooked in cooker with more liquidy gravy topped with generous amount of cilantro. All very typical of Nepalese style of cooking. Even the Mango Lassi was pretty solid - felt fresh and not going sour whatsoever. If there was anything which was a little underwhelming - it was the Aloo Paratha. It was good but it was made like Bihari/Nepali style. If you are expecting Punjabi style paratha - you will be disappointed. Ambience is ordinary but given the place is located in SF downtown, I won't complain.

    Palak Paneer
    Tash B.

    Great whole in the wall in the heart of SoMa - super lowkey decor and friendly staff. They have a few beers on the menu and excellent food spanning Nepalese and Chinese. You don't leave feeling over stuffed or breaking the bank.

    Such a yummy and homey spot! Waiters are super nice and there's always a table open :) family run spot with great food - momos: got 1/2 veggie and 1/2 meat and both were so delicious - garlic bread: classic - palak paneer: so yummy! Good thickness and ratio to paneer - honey chicken: just as good as any chinese restaurant - chicken tikka: nice flavor and large amount

    Paneer pakora

    The food was absolutely delicious! My family and I came here and ordered fried rice, chow mein, chicken tikka masala, raita, paneer pakora, vegetable momo's, and butter naan. Highly recommend each dish. So flavorful, and spicy, and just the right portion. We now have a staple spot to visit in SF! And very kind service as well! :)

Copra is an absolute masterclass in coastal South Indian cuisine that completely recalibrates your palate. The Fillmore space itself is gorgeous--dripping with lush greenery and high-end tropical energy--but the absolute culinary obsession happening on the plates is the real story. We ran through a massive spread, and honestly, the flavor profiles are loud, complex, and unapologetically bold. The Standout Drinks -Jaggery Sour It hits that perfect balance of sweet and tart, with the jaggery giving it a deep, complex molasses-like richness that pairs beautifully with the spice of the food. -Salty City: refreshing and addicting Food hits -Mysore Masala Dosa: My personal favorite of the night. The dosa itself has that elite, perfect crisp-to-chew ratio. Pair it with the tomato and coconut chutneys, a heavy dusting of podi, and that rich onion sambar, and it's pure perfection. -Thayir Vadai Chaat: A total texture bomb and another personal highlight. It's got this incredible contrast between the cool yogurt, sweet date chutney, and the crunch of the Madras mixture and cashews. -Varuval Sea Bass Collar: Absolutely phenomenal. The fish was cooked to absolute perfection under that heavily spiced varuval crust. The karavelli curry it sits in is incredibly rich, and pairing it with the clean, bright snowpea poriyal and basmati rice made it an elite main course. We also dug into the Shrimp Vennai Roast (smothered in a brown butter chili chutney that is pure crack) and the Slow-Cooked Octopus with that sharp jaffna rub and grapefruit. Dessert -Jigarthanda: You must save room for this. The frozen caramel milk bar combined with milk jam, nannari, and the crunch of candied cashews is elite-level dessert engineering. It's sweet, cooling, and the perfect antidote to the spice of the meal. Last but not least, you must try their filtered Indian coffee. It delivers a strong nutty subtle sweet flavor. Service is sharp, fast-paced, and genuinely passionate about the menu. It's vibrant, energetic, and entirely worth every bit of the hype. A shout out to Ser taking care of our group of 6. She helped us make decisions for orders as we were divided in what we want. Lol

Loved the flavor of the rasam poori but two of them had holes in the bottom and leaked as we poured. The bone marrow and shrimp vannai roast were good as well. Unfortunately, the chutneys were very similar to each other and the truffle egg appam tasted too strongly of coconut, and I could barely taste the truffle or the egg. But still overall very good. The service was another story. We felt like the food came out at unreasonable intervals. We got the egg appam, bone marrow, poori, chutney palette, and shrimp in rapid succession one after the other. It barely fit on our table-- plates were half hanging off the side of the table. We felt rushed to eat it all because things were getting cold. It also happened to the table next to us and they had to ask the waiter to take something back to the kitchen temporarily because they couldn't fit it on their table. It was very odd and unexpected for a restaurant like this.

Overall, we enjoyed the food, although I felt it was a little expensive for the portion sizes. We made a fairly simple request to have one ingredient served on the side, but it was missed and never acknowledged. At one point, I asked for an extra napkin, and it was carelessly dropped onto one of our dirty plates. We were also asked to clear the table almost immediately after paying to make room for upcoming parties (as is their right, but they could have easily notified us of this earlier so we could plan accordingly - and the service hadn't felt particularly considerate or attentive up to that point). I understand they may have been understaffed, but the way the service was handled felt very avoidable. I wouldn't recommend unless trying authentic dishes is your top priority.
