| - You know those tiny, hole in the wall, cozy restaurants in SF that you wish Vegas had? Well they do and it's Other Mama. It's a small restaurant you have to stumble upon on Yelp, because it's not in a very popping plaza/location nor is it very welcoming from the outside. However, once you're inside you'll feel like you're no longer in Vegas. It has an open kitchen, welcoming decor and a great bar. On my one visit alone I saw a couple of guys here on their own just for the Happy Hour and to talk to the bartenders. It's one of those places!
The food is seafood/sushi/bar food? It's an interesting mix. They had parts of their menu written in Japanese on the wall, however it doesn't have the atmosphere for me to want to eat sushi.
We went with the spicy tuna tartare and waffle fries, calamari, oysters, a couple of drinks and the whole fish. All were really great, but I enjoyed the calamari the most. The whole fish was filling and deboned (YES, no digging for bones), but came out a little too burnt for my liking. Ask for it to be a little less charred! :)
The happy hour is great and I will definitely be back for it. It's a cute spot to sit and chat with your date and enjoy the atmostphere. Easy parking, but maybe don't keep your valuables in the car! :P
