Having been to Señor Bear, it was time to give the sister restaurant, Mister Oso a try! The Wash Park location is unassuming from the outside and has a nice patio. Inside it is colorful, full of foliage (mostly fake plants unfortunately), and lively!
The new drink, 400 Petals, was delicious! Perfectly balanced and not too heavy on the aperol or mezcal. The camarones tacos were delicious! They can sub for corn tortillas to make it gluten free. The fried mushroom tacos got good reviews from my vegetarian friend. The pollo bronco tacos were "a weird mix of flavors" but still decent, and a good amount of food, as my friend said it.
We felt a bit strange about the service, which is why I am giving 4 stars. We were coming from a day at the park so we were dressed casually, but appropriately. When we walked in and asked for a table we were told it was a 30 minute wait despite many tables being open and no other parties waiting. It felt like they wanted us to leave and go somewhere else. When we put our name down, our table was ready in 5 minutes. Our waitress also seemed to act oddly towards us, and the only thing we could think of was that they thought we were not dressed formally enough. Overall the service felt a bit off, but the food and drinks were great.
