Mama's Mexican Kitchen

2234 Second Ave.

Seattle, WA 98121

Website

With all due affection, Mama's looks like whatever has been filling the minds of several eccentric souls has exploded onto its walls. It would take an awfully haughty person to begrudge the place its cheap, huge chicken screamer (chicken and sour cream) or Nolasco (veggie) burritos. Mama's boasts Mexican tchotchkes, killer margaritas, random paintings, strings of lights, a bit of Marilyn, and, of course, the famed Elvis room.

Mama's Mexican Kitchen for Happy Hour

Daily 4:30 - 7 p.m. Some drinks (margaritas included) $1 off; appetizer specials.

Great Mexican joint, when I was working downtown a bunch of us would snag the Elvis room for lunch every Friday. Their salsa is mouth watering and you're probably not going to finish your order either, they're famous for their large portions.

For those of us who remember when Belltown was a little edgier, funkier. and let's face it, cheaper. After all these years (and changes), it's still a great place to get tipsy on strong margaritas, inhale chips and salsa, and enjoy old-school mexican dishes.
