About this restaurant

  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Innovative
  • Vegan-friendly
Tropical space adventure in South Park! Exotic cocktails. Interplanetary fusion small plates. Named Best Bars In America by Esquire Magazine.

Reservations offer 90-minute experience like no other, venturing towards the outer limits of the tropical flavor galaxy!

WALK INS WELCOME - Walk-in tables are available daily. Early arrival is encouraged and there is a paging system in the event of a waitlist.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: MOTHERSHIP recently landed on Esquire’s best bars list for its top-tier vegan plates and inventive riffs on tropical drinks with unlikely combos like amaro and TANG cordial. But it’s the sci-fi design details that are especially impressive, including color-changing lights, menus that resemble flight manuals, and a shuttlecraft-turned-bar.

    Cool place in North Park They know what they are doing. Mixologists are friendly, knowledable and helpful with making your drink decisions based on your tolerance and flavor preference. Well Done... We'll be back!

    Very good experience made a reservation. Just had to wait like 15 minutes, which wasn’t bad at all just would like to have more food options but that’s more personal since I am not vegan. The waitress was very good on explaining drinks, great attitude and attended us

    Excellent all around. Great drinks… great atmosphere… and the food was surprisingly delicious. I did not expect vegan food to taste this amazing! In fact, if I could eat something this delicious daily, going vegan would be a breeze!!! One other thing, wash your hands in the bathroom at you own risk. ;)

    Drinks top notch. Had the paella was delicious, it had artichokes and usually not a big fan of but these were so good. Service was great. Our serve was very kind and attentive. The ambience was immersive and captivating.
