Other Mama by Chef Dan Krohmer Adds Elevated Restaurant Experience With New Bar Area and Innovative Menu
Award winning, Chef Krohmer, announces Other Mama, widely known for its raw bar and tale-told sushi, has rolled out its new seasonal sushi menu featuring daily fresh fish options, expertly crafted vegetarian rolls, hand rolls, and a wide array of menu options continuing to please the masses. In addition to the enhanced menu at this coveted destination on the West Side, Krohmer is thrilled to announce the addition of 1,000 sqft to intensify the Other Mama experience and cater to the locals and tourists alike.
Several examples which represent the essence of Chef Krohmer’s creative flair and revolving menu including Crab Cakes, Hush Puppies & Caviar, Shrimp Agua Chile, Scallop Carpaccio, Seared Salmon Carpaccio, King Crab Hand Rolls, and Lobster Chowder. Now, all entrees and craveable dishes, packed with a vibrant punch, are served with rice and salad.
“Good sushi is an art and an evolution. I am constantly exploring creative ways to tease palates to satisfy my guests and to anticipate their next visit. We have more than doubled our sushi selections, which are filled with zestful, dynamic flavors to augment our signature favorites, like our Salmon Sashimi. Our Other Mama team is excited to showcase this added dining experience that complements our established vibe and is a desired locale for private events, libations and occasions,” says Chef Dan Krohmer.
The ambient area seats about 35 guests and hosts standing parties of up to 50. Other upgrades include expanded bar selections, large presentation TV screens, Chef’s counter, with both tasting menus and daily curated dishes to showcase Chef’s creative robust cuisine. As the sought out sushi epicenter of Las Vegas, with prior limited seating, the new bar hot spot will conveniently serve walk-ins, so guests can stop in for a bite to eat or a drink, without a reservation. Spoiler alert: a very generous happy hour, made with its housemade infused cocktails, with namesake titles after southern women, such as the BILLIE JOE and SCARLETT, will be served.
Chef Dan grew up in Placerville, California, and began his culinary journey in nearby Sacramento at Mikuni Japanese. His unplanned path to crafting sushi started during a vacation in Japan. He connected with a friend whose family ran a restaurant in remote Kumamoto and decided to stay and work for nearly two years. Chef Dan learned about the disciplines of sushi and kaiseki on the job. He would move back to Sacramento to work in farm-to-table restaurants, where he furthered his appreciation for quality ingredients and simple preparation. Soon, Chef Dan was recruited to join the team at Morimoto, Philadelphia, before pivoting as a chef serving musicians at Coachella, Vans Warped Tour, and on tour with musical acts including Taylor Swift, Neil Young, Jay Z, Godsmack, Metallica, and many others. He moved to Las Vegas and spent some time with the legendary Michelin-starred Takeshi Omae before opening his original concept, Other Mama, in March 2015.
Within its first year, Other Mama has garnered an impressive number of accolades, including Best Restaurant, Off Strip twice (Vegas Seven and Desert Companion); “Best Dream Come True” (Las Vegas Weekly ”Best of Las Vegas” 2016); Neighborhood Restaurant of the Year (Eating Las Vegas); Bartender of the Year, 2015 (Eater); Best Restaurant Cocktails (Vegas Seven).
