New American Restaurants near Oro Valley, AZ

“First time trying Fork & Fire - will not be our last. We got take out, 2 meat combo of pulled chicken & sausage, and 1 lb of ribs. The chicken was tender with great flavor. The sausage was tender, flavorful and had a nice crisp to the skin. The ribs were tender, meaty and delicious. Generous helpings of the meat. The cornbread was moist and yummy. We loved the fries. The apple crisp and peach cobbler were awesome!“

“Really great meal on our 60th wedding anniversary. Three of us had the Filet Mignon, one of us had the Braised Short Rib. All cooked to our different tastes! Our old favorite place remains a favorite!!“

“My server was fantastic, had an issue with the food. He couldn't have apologized more than enough and did everything he could to try to take care of the situation. Manager did remake all of our food. We eat in there many times before always good service. Always good food. Just this time for whatever reason my food was ice cold but they didn't take care of it. So I don't have any complaints. Charles was my server. Took really great care of us. Nothing was his problem. He really did all that he could can't say enough. Good things about him.“

“The food was OK, but the Shirley Temple I had was very tasty. I went here with a few of my coworkers, and I had an overall very good experience. The service was excellent, and we had a breathtaking view of the mountains. This place represents the best of Arizona and the people here we interacted with embody the wonderful personalities of people in Arizona that I’ve interacted with since moving here a month ago.“

“My wife and I went last night for the first time. Best steak I have had in Tucson in a long time. Highly recommend!!“

“For a weekend lunch, not bad, the menu is much smaller for the weekend lunches, the service is alright, seemed to be a little oblivious to weekday menu options, didn't really fill drinks, but not bad. Food was almost identical to Dove Mountain Brewery, I wonder if they share prep or ingredient lists. The view is amazing, I highly suggest a reservation, but even the bar had great views of the valley.“

“enjoyed my meal at Chop Shop in Tucson! I had the Pina Kale Ada protein shake and the teriyaki chicken, and both were delicious. The shake was weird tasting at first but very refreshing, flavorful, and a great choice with the meal, while the teriyaki chicken was tasty, it needed more chicken so I had to order extra chicken to make sure I hit the protein target, it well prepared. A spot I’d visit again when I’m in Tucson!“

“The Diablo burger! Zinburger on Grant Rd in Tucson. Full bar and large area for dining! Most burgers are $14 with the option for fries or side for another $2.50. We had the Zucchini fries for an appetizer. You could easily come in and just eat those, they are that good. I had the Diablo burger, (see photo). It was fantastic! Grilled jalapeños and pepper jack cheese. It was perfection on a bun. Most everyone’s burgers soaked their buns to the point the buns were falling apart from the juice. The buns were brioche and to me the only option for a burger. The staff was very friendly and the entire experience left me hoping my digestive system works overtime so I can come back sooner. Check out Zinburger on Grant Rd in Tucson, you may not go anywhere else!“

“Great band and food. Our server was very knowledgeable on pairings and made our first time here comfortable.“

“Excellent food, brilliant breakfast and very friendly service 😃👏“

“First off: Bathroom is very clean. Always a good sign. These are DELICIOUS. I was a little apprehensive at first but the clerk was very helpful with recommendations. Very polite and fast service. Fries great fresh crispy. They have GREAT sodas that are free of HFCS that are delicious and come in a great variety. I think they go well with the food too. If sods is not your lane they also have many flavors of Slushies and Boba Drinks. Parking is tight but if you don’t mind a short jog there is plenty around in the adjacent stores. Oh wait😊
I forgot to add that you can choose which ever kind of meat you want for your dog. I’ll always BEEF; but if that ain’t YOU you can always change it. It’s a Corndog FanGurl Dream—customizable Corn dog. 🌽 🐶 For the Win. I’ll DEF’ Be back. 😊🥳❣️“

“This is a diner no doubt about it! I think I may have had the best sandwich of my life here. A Turkey melt, parmesan cheese crusted sour dough bread, and oh so good! My man had the biscuits and gravy and may or may not have been licking the plate after.“

“Excellent food, brilliant breakfast and very friendly service 😃👏“

“Great value, $24 for adults all you can eat buffet ($12 for kids). It has a made-to-order omelette bar, all kinds of great options including pozole. Yogurt parfait and berry station, even had w custom juices (a green one and orange/cantaloupe one). Honestly a lot better than I would have expected.
Our server was awesome about being mindful of budget and told us some hacks on the menu. We felt like family, excellent dining experience! Gino took great care of us… we’ll be back 🙂“

“A great attentive staff that really caters to the weary traveler. The kitchen staff does a great job delivering the goods! Hope to get an assignment and see the band on Cinco DeMayo (5/5)… should be a great time at the Glowball.“

“Such a beautiful dinner experience at Clayton’s! I was in town for just one night after flying in for business and decided to have a solo dinner overlooking the golf course. I’m so glad I did.

My server was incredibly sweet and welcoming. Forgive me because I can’t remember her exact name, I believe it was Alysa or something similar—but she truly made the experience special. She recommended the Labor Day special, which was a great choice, and I enjoyed a mocktail while watching the most beautiful pink Arizona sunset.

She even went above and beyond and offered to take a photo of me with the sunset in the background. It was such a thoughtful gesture, especially since I was dining alone.

If you’re staying at The Ritz-Carlton Dove Mountain, I highly recommend making dinner plans here and coming before sunset. The views are absolutely worth it! I took the shuttle from the hotel to the restaurant and back, which made everything incredibly easy.

Of course, I had to take dessert back to the hotel with me too.

Beautiful views, wonderful service, great food, and such a relaxing way to end a business travel day. I would absolutely come back.“

“Super convenient for an afternoon snack and to hydrate. We only ordered the guacamole and chips, as far as food. It was fresh, but I felt like it needed some sort of spices added . It is avocado, onion and tomato with zero salt, pepper or anything. So basically avocado smashed. Mockatail was very good.“

“10 wings and 2 pulled pork sliders later and I am happy! Ordered to go and everything was perfect! Great sliders and bone-ins!“

“Food was absolutely amazing. Pork chop was cooked very well. The burger was cooked to rare as requested and had a beautiful crust for being rare. Beef risotto was cooked very well. Risotto wasn't too hard not too soft. And the beef was extremely tender. Poke bowl had not too much tuna compared to everything else.“

“Very friendly and attentive staff! Food was delicious and drinks were even better!!“
