"Although it’s not technically a sushi restaurant, Other Mama’s rolls and sashimi are so fresh that you’ll forget that you’re in a desert strip mall—and you’ll wonder why anyone would want to cook their fish. Do as the locals do and order from the chalkboard, where you’ll find the daily catch for fish and oysters, and don’t you dare leave before destroying the French toast caviar. These fluffy little sweet-and-salty bites started off as one of those chalkboard specials and proved so popular they landed a full-time spot on the menu. The always-hopping, polished dive bar atmosphere, decorated with the chef’s personal collection of treasures and trinkets, makes it perfect for a low-key catch up with friends or a relaxed date night." - emmy kasten
