The Mothership bar and restaurant in San Diego's South Park quadrant won the Orchid for Interior Design. The 48-year old Orchids and Onions gala awards Orchids for exceptional architecture and Onions for projects that missed the mark. This year the 48-year-old competition led by the San Diego Architectural Foundation awarded more than a dozen Orchids for exceptional architecture and two Onions.
There were more than 100 nominations but none quite like this ex-Mexican cafe. Few dining spots in town boast the decor of a crashed space shuttle, but why not? It's not our money, right?
Says San Diego Eater, Mothership is the second project from Kindred restaurant (Beech & Fern Sts.), owner Kory Stetina, in partnership with CH Projects co-founder Arsalun Tafazoli. Designed and built by Ignacio “Notch” Gonzalez of Top Notch Kustoms (SF’s Whitechapel and Smuggler’s Cove).
The Mothership was lauded for its sci-fi interior hiding inside a Mission-style building at 2310 30th Street just north of Juniper. Reservations are suggested, which gets you a 90 minute window to eat. Click here for the menu that's pure out of this world entrepreneural hutzpah.
The Mothership with hits Orchid award hype will no doubt be this year's hot Halloween dining experience. So make that reservation!
