Negima – Tenka Japanese Restaurant

Negima Tenka Japanese Restaurant

Sliced beef rolled with scallion and avocado. $2.95 for happy hour
Tenka Japanese Restaurant, San Mateo

This appetizer read better than it looked once it arrived.  Perhaps it was the lighting, but it looked so unappetizing.  I’m not even sure what the sauce was on top. I can’t say that I remember what these tasted like, but they were cheap!

Assorted sushi – Tenka Japanese Restaurant

This place is awesome for happy hour! The prices are great and the sushi doesn’t suck. You always have to be a little weary of super cheap sushi, but this place serves above decent sushi at rock bottom prices. That’s awesome in my book!  You can get a nice large meal for only a few bucks. Of the sushi below, the scallop nigiri was my favorite!

Well vodka with cranberry juice and a lime wedge. $4 for happy hour
Downtown Tiki Lounge, San Mateo CA

This is a pretty chill place with great happy hour drink and appetizer specials.  The tiki vibe is adequate with all the fake palm trees, bamboo trim, and  tiki statues scattered throughout. Only ducked in for a quick drink while waiting for friend, but this place would be a great after work hang out!
