NIRVANA is a cool little hot spot here in the Castro, very popular because of its unique ambiance, food, and specialty drinks.

Over the years it’s evolved into a hot hangout for people who want to see and be seen!

NIRVANA’s cuisine is unique in that it has its origins from Burmese and Indian cooking (hence the name NIRVANA), fused with contemporary ingredients and styles — we offer unique flavors with subtle hints of Southeast Asian spices such as fennel, cumin, paprika and cinnamon just to name a few.

A tour through NIRVANA RESTAURANT reveals 3 separate dining areas, each offering a slightly different feel.

• If you want to be where all the action is, dine in our front dining area and bar, where you get to see all the activity that goes on both inside and out on the street, not to mention the hustle and bustle of our open display kitchen and bar.

  Speaking of which, try NIRVANA’s ever popular NIRVANA COLADA and NIRVANA FLURRY specialty cocktails from our esteemed and most expert bartenders whom by the way, have been known to miraculously sprout extra limbs like Shiva when this bar really starts rocking!

• Towards the back, we have a bit more private setting dining room used for reserved parties or for those who want a bit more intimacy.
• And finally, for those who want a really tranquil dining experience, we offer our ever popular outdoor garden patio, replete with lush tropical plantation and vegetation offering a truly Zen-like retreat for those who want an enlightening meal – alfresco of course!

So there you have it! NIRVANA is THE hot spot in the CASTRO on any night!
