La Mama

La Mama is just one of the many amazing culinary choices to be found in the area informally known as the Sheffield Food Mile. Running just south of the city centre, along London Road and into the start of Abbeydale Road, this stretch packs in more great cuisines from around the world than anywhere else in the city. La Mama is a family-run, fully licensed tapas bar and restaurant. The tapas menu comprises inventive and authentic dishes from Chile and Spain. The venue also regularly hosts live music nights, inspired by the sounds of Latin America, and is available for private hire. Everyone knows that the point of tapas is to share. But this lovely Latin-style restaurant makes that really difficult: everything on the menu tastes so great, you can be forgiven for keeping it all to yourself. The menu at La Mama just goes on and on: empanadas, croquetas, patatasbravas, tortilla, chorizo, ali-oli...everything you try, you’ll love. Don't miss tapas happy hour, which runs all night Tuesday and 6-8pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays. If you're in luck, there may be some live jazz or Latin American-inspired music on too. The restaurant is also open from 12pm every Saturday, offering a special lunchtime menu featuring traditional pinchos, salads and tapas happy hour deals starting at just £2.60. La Mama’s menu should be largely familiar, with the odd Chilean dish thrown in such as the fish stew cooked in a clay pot and the whole sea bass. Try the salmon pappillonne, a handsome chunk of sweet flavoured fish with vegetables with a perky tomato sauce, or pollopiccante, a butterflied chicken breast with green peppers on a red wine sauce. Desserts are homemade and extremely indulgent. The Chilean pannacotta is worth a look, as is Borrachito de Frambuesa, sponge soaked in raspberry liqueur with a strawberry sauce and chilli chocolate.
