“Mercedes was PHENOMENAL! Genuinely had the best service skills I’ve ever experienced. She accommodated me so much and helped me fix an issue with my order. She is so friendly and was so happy to help me. She is truly amazing. 10/10 everyone’s needs to take notes from Mercedes.”

“Frappe was super yummy, as always! Way cool tho - I ordered a couple extra caramels, yum yum. And this guy, at the expo window, is just looking at me squeezin away for me to say when. An appropriate amount of course, it was perfect! Honestly, lol when I'm jipped of the caramel, I'm a sad face all day !!! Nope, we both laughed and a great frappe day it was!!! Plus IT WAS FREE on my APP "REWARDS / DEALS" , not even points, JUST A COUPON!! I care so much because, some people are rude and cheap with it { at many places} even tho it's .69¢ ea adtnl., COMPLETELY OK, I want it, I pay for it. As long as it's extra...”

“Great food, atmosphere, and friendly staff.”

“Great Meal and great service. Luis was amazing person. The salsa was made at the table.”

“Great food and atmosphere. It’s great to go somewhere local and get a taste of Louisiana! It’s been a long time since I’ve had gumbo, and it didn’t disappoint. And the hush puppies were great and we ended up getting an extra order. I look forward to trying more of the menu!”

“There were two parts to the show, magic and a murder mystery. The murder mystery was interesting and challenging. The magic was outstanding. I watched carefully and could not see the sleight of hand. The magic show was interactive, and the audience was enthusiastic. A three course dinner was served, chicken masala, a good salad, and creme brule. The liquor price was quite reasonable and the food was very good. I had a very enjoyable evening.”

“My husband and I had breakfast for the 1st time here. It was amazing. They pay close attention to every detail. From the fresh flower with my food, to the side car of popcorn with my drink, made with a syrup they make in house. My husband's bloody mary was perfect too. Even the heart on the toothpick. Too cute. Service was exceptional. Caro took great care of us. Even recommended a drink, and it was delicious. We will definitely be back soon!”

“Table side salsa is the best! Menu selection is huge and the food is so good! I had lemon butter cilantro salmon, muy perfecto! Personable management and great wait staff, highly recommend Guadalajara’s!”

“First saw Tumerico on Triple D. Visiting Tucson in March…family tried it out…we beeping loved it. I am almost exclusively a carnivore, but I’d eat at Tumerico’s twice a week if I lived here. Absolutely delicious!”

“This place has authentic Sonoran style hot dogs. I visit Hermosillo frequently and love the “dogos” so I know what I’m talking about! The hot dogs here are more like Hermosillo hot dogs than any other place I have tried in Tucson! The only criticism I can offer is they need to try and find the Hermosillo style buns with the deep pockets that can hold more toppings.”

“Absolutely love this place. I’m a foodie and this is my favorite place to eat in Tucson. The flavors are bold and the ribs are cooked just right. The açaí place that’s inside the same building is also the best açaí place in town. My girlfriend and I have pretty much tried them all and we keep coming back to this one. The workers are all so friendly and helpful and the atmosphere is very laid back and inviting. The only thing the I wish they did differently is to SELL THE JERSEYS! I would 100% wear that around town and I’m not even a jersey guy, or even a sports guy. I just love this place that much. Thanks for bringing such a quality establishment to Tucson for our enjoyment!”

“Have had nothing but absolute deliciousness from this place. Pasta, salads, sandwiches and the garlic aioli fries are to die for. Go! You won’t be disappointed!”

“This place is delicious. They have a nice variety of safe snacks and other items to browse on the side. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. This place has now become a staple in our lives. 😊”

“The tacos are delicious. And the waiter and the waitress are very nice. And the waiters name is ceasar. and the waitress name is Layda.”

“Their chicken and pork is delicious. Their rice and macaroni salad is good. Ordered online for pick up and right on time.”

“Service excellent, food inventive, delicious. Dark slick tile floors, unmarked change from floor to a step…there must be a bright reflective tape or paint for more than one site in the restaurant. I was injured falling having not seen nor felt the one step. Management was most solicitous and paid our bill. We would never have asked for this and were surprised and grateful.”

“♡︎♥︎ So Good ! Cute / Fun Place.”

“Fabulous authentic Greek food…… just like my husbands Yia Yia used to make! You’ve got to try out this place. The pastichio was the best I have had in years!”

“I came for a pastry. I left a changed woman.

Houlden’s Rise Above is not a bakery — it’s a culinary art gallery where the exhibits melt in your mouth. These artistic pastries layered with wildly creative ingredients didn’t just taste good… they altered my personality.

One bite and I forgot my responsibilities. My inner monologue switched to “how many of these can I legally eat before someone intervenes?” The textures? Immaculate. The flavors? Bold, imaginative, emotionally supportive.

This isn’t dessert — it’s edible craftsmanship. Each pastry feels like it was designed by a mad genius with a whisk and a dream.

If you’re counting carbs, turn around.
If you’re emotionally stable, proceed with caution.
If you appreciate flavor, creativity, and joy in its purest form — welcome home.

Houlden’s Rise Above: where pastries transcend reality and your standards are forever ruined. 🥐✨”

“Crumbles at the Landing is my favorite store in Tucson! Always have friendly staff!
