“Zulay was our waitress, and a wonderful advocate for the restaurant. It's a small venue, and worth every bit of the wait. We watched as tables were bussed and floors swept, then tables set with exacting placement of the table service. The pace was relaxed, we never felt rushed. Permission to remove plates from the table was asked every time to confirm that the patron was through with it. I had the Kalo enchiladas, one of the best presentations and very tasty. One of the best dining experiences in my life. Thank you

“This is definitely one of the top culinary experiences I've had in tucson! as a fat man, I take my food seriously and (besides the hyped up collard greens) I had the best meal I've had in awhile! food came out quick, and hot, our glasses stayed filled and the server, Kelsey, had a great attitude. the Brussel Spourts were perfect and came out quick, the cornbread was delicious (drip some of the Brussel sprout hotsauce on it) and the gumbo was rich and flavorful and the hushpuppies were perfect. crispy on the outside soft on the inside. The pasta, while good can be a little too fishy for some, but I enjoyed my little sample. the pickleberry pie i feel will be an acquired taste, that i acquired rather quickly. flaky crust, sweet and sour filling and a funky goatcheese with a good stank. i dont know how else to describe it. all in all must recommend this place.”

“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!”

Hot Dogs • $
“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.”
Indian • $
“I’m staying at the Best Western/Hotel Bridgeway on Tucson Ave. the Indian Twist restaurant is attached to the hotel. Super convenient, fast and DELICIOUS!! There’s not many Paneer dishes, but I asked if I could sub the chicken in the Butter Chicken for paneer. It was no problem! I had Butter Paneer, garlic naan and the wonderful rice. I got mild spice and it was PERFECT!! I wish I could have this everyday! Friendly service, making sure that I didn’t need anything else several times. As I was eating several pick up orders were completed, and a couple others came in to eat. Everyone was warmly welcomed, not the canned ‘welcome in’ response that you get many places. 10/10 - would eat here everyday.”
Pizza • $
“From the moment you walk in you are greated by the most friendly staff promt service food came out super fast and was by far the best Pizza Tucson has to offer. Everyone looked happy to be there my only complaint is we live on Ina and Thornydale but it's worth the drive even with crazy Tucson traffic”

It's great for Tucson, I'll definitely be back there when I'm in Tucson. If you're in Phoenix, look up Comedor Guadalajara, no affiliation to Guadalajara Original Grill. .”

“Charming place with lots of history. We shared an appetizer,a salad and a main and still took food home. We both thought the pork schnitzel was outstanding. My husband liked the calamari but I thought it was too chewy. Next time I would get the sweet chili sauce on the side so I could add it as needed . Loved the s Ceasar salad with fresh grated Parmesan . Our server was very attentive and brought dishes already split. Wished we had had room for desert!”

“Cupbop is great food. I was unable to leave a review when I ordered through Doordash except for a Pic and choosing Stars 1-5. I gave it a 3 star instead of a 5 star because they, again, left of tge sesame seeds on the Rock Bop. This is the 2nd time they have done on an order. The order, before this, they left out the sauce and sesame seed, which made the Rock Bop very dry. I am not looking for replacements or a discount. My family and I really like Cupbop. CUPBOP BUSINESS---PLEASE, Please pay attention to what is checked of on Delivery order's at the St. George, UT location. Thank you.”

“This is the best bread this side of the Mississippi, yes, you read that correctly, it's the absolute best! We moved to the area 6 months ago and tried all the bakeries in the wrea, and now we go out of our way for Barrio Bread.
Our favorite breads are the Jalapeno Cheddar, Cinnamon Raisin, Pain Au Levain, and Heritage.
The owner, Don Guerra, is always there, he is so nice, and seems so happy to share his passion for bread. There is usually a line, but totally worth the wait.
Must enjoy!”

“My vegan meal looked fresh .The vegetables ,and tasted wonderful lots of flavor. The turmeric lemonade was good. The service was awesome. So many people put all the flavor in the meat, they forget about the vegetables. Anyways after my somewhat awful experience at another Mexican restaurant, this is was on point. So thanks a repeat place to go to.”

The horchata was delicious and a great way to cool down the hot pepper that came with the Sinaloense dog. Will I stop here again? No question about it. It's now listed in my Favorites list. BTW: it's a busy place at lunchtime! Thank you for a great lunchtime experience!
Vegetarian options: The Vegetarian hot dog.”

“We ordered a bunch of things at Houlden’s this morning, We’ve only tried a few things, but everything so far is delicious. We tried a chocolate hazelnut croissant and a chocolate cronut. We still have a number of other items to try out. They have a selection of savory items but we didn’t get any of those thinking we’d be going to lunch somewhere. That was a mistake! I definitely recommend this bakery as a stop while in Tucson! Updated from previous review on 2025-05-05”

The service was friendly and the owner/chef went above and beyond to fulfill a special request.
I had the Bianca pizza which was super yummy. I loved the crispy basil and the chilies to add pizzaz the winner is it the most delicious pizza dough I’ve tasted. I’d just order that next time and dip it olive oil.
The other highlight was the almond cake!!!! Out of this world!!!!
Thank you very much. I can see you really put your heart and soul into making good fun unique and special food experiences for people.”

“The food is incredible and the owner is the most real & incredible human. Story time: 5 or so years ago I went in to pick up food - I was having the worst day. I was sick, I was fighting with an awful human non stop and I had just finished a 22 day straight gem show job. I sat down to wait for my food and the owner saw my sorry state and just came out and started putting a bunch of shots of juice in front of me. Literally fixed my day and my life for moment. I get emotional just walking into this place. Nothing but warmth and love. ❤️❤️❤️”

“First thing I say when we walk in, "OMG this place smells AMAZING!!", and tasted even better! Best falafel and gyro I've ever had!! I like that the falafel is patties instead of balls like most places. It was cooked perfectly..crispy crunchy on the outside, soft and almost cake-like on the inside. You get 4 cakes to the order plus pita bread, cucumbers and tomatoes. The gyro is HUGE!! I couldn't even pick it up to try and eat it until I ate some of the meat out of it, which btw, is flavored so beautifully that you don't really need the tzatziki sauce but definitely worth putting on bc the flavors of both go together so well! I HIGHLY recommend going to Istanbul if you want outstanding Mediterranean food in a good atmosphere! This place definitely get 👍👍 from this food enthusiast!!”

My girlfriend got the 520 burger, she loved it and it definitely had some spice to it! The lady working was very sweet and nice (can't remember her name but she's the one that had plugs in her ears) very friendly as well. Fantastic experience and will be coming back again. Side note: There's an older male spirit/ghost that hangs out inside as well I saw. Very calm man and doesn't bug anyone, he's more of an observer . I'm also a psychic medium so most people won't see this man but waitress affirmed what I saw. All good vibes!”

Brewery • $$
“Cool place with a great patio, vibe and friendly employees and customers. Brought the family with me on our annual trip to Tucson and we had a good time. Only reason I didn't give a 5/5 is that the options for kids were super limited, which I get is likely not the goal, its just the reality of my visit. My kids didn't enjoy the lemon lime soda and there wasn't a single other option other than water, and none of the food was really kid friendly. The beer was good but I think the one I enjoyed most was not one made by MotoSonora, it was a Mother Road beer. Overall, great place and if you aint bringing kids, you'll like it even more than I did.”

The food was amazing—the quesabirra tacos were flavorful, as were the Arros and Charro Beans. The braising jus was added even more flavor! I also had Agave House Margarita and the Jardin, and they were refreshing with just the right amount of sweetness. The bartender and servers were all friendly and attentive. The ambience was also nice. I will definitely be coming back!”

There are a lot of options depending on dietary preferences or restrictions: gluten free buns, grass fed beef available, and tons of toppings available. I love the local iced tea and the Maine Root sodas. If you have been there years ago when the service was a little slow, just know that was in the past. I waited 3 minutes for a hot, fresh burger tonight that was awesome.”
Korean • $$
“I love the options, everyone was really nice and the food was fresh and really good. We got the combo box because we couldn't make up our minds (lol) and a side of mandoo. next time I think I'll get the combo with mandoo as one of the choices because it was way too much food to get it as a side. The prices are really reasonable and the bowl is enough to have some for lunch the next day.”

It's clean inside and I've not had any issues with the staff like other reviewers had.
I wish it was pet friendly as there is plenty of room inside, but I understand not everyone wants to see animals in a brewery (same with kids), so we don't come here that often as we take the pup everywhere with us.”

“I had the pleasure of dining here with my partner, and we had an exceptional server, Abigail. Despite the chaos of the day after Valentine's Day, Abigail's poise, kindness, and attention to detail shone through.. As we watched, Abigail effortlessly juggled multiple tables, ensuring every guest felt seen and cared for. Her genuine warmth, prompt care, and infectious smile made everyone's day a little brighter. What struck us most was Abigail's ability to maintain her high standards despite the demanding pace. She never let our glasses run dry or made us feel forgotten. Her dedication to excellence is a rare find in today's service industry. Servers like Abigail are hard to come by these days. May her efficiency, kindness, prompt care and overall service be appreciated for the true value she holds! Give that girl a raise, a bottle of wine and a day to treat herself as beautifully as she treats the guests who dine here!
Thank you Abigail! Keep up the incredible work!”

Wild Garlic truly has a unique and flavorful style when it comes to the beautiful food and the carefully crafted cocktails. To me, the price is more than worth the experience!”

“I’m a fan!! I love all of the toppings that they offer on your burger! The Graze sauce is bomb, and the other dipping sauces they provide. Their sweet potato tots are the best I’ve ever had.
My usual is: a single, grass-fed beef patty, no cheese, no raw tomato, no raw onion. Yes to: grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, grilled jalapeños (all free toppings), Graze sauce, sometimes lettuce, usually I add bacon — and sometimes I add an egg!!!!”

“I cannot say enough good things about this place. The staff are amazing, so friendly and accommodating. The cauliflower was amazing!! Meals were perfect, great flavors, perfect portions. Outdoors is made for children, or adults who want to have fun. There are games galore and a lending library, seriously, who does this to entertain your children? It was comfortable and cozy and charming and delicious. I'm only sorry it has taken me this long to get there, my new go to spot. Thank you so much for being a fabulous place to be on the east side!!!”
Thai • $$
“The Pad Thai was good. I ordered carry out. The price on all the posted menus was 5 dollars less than what I paid for pick up (the carry out was $16.75). Be sure that you are clear on the price, if that matters to you.”

“The place is beautiful, and the presentation of the food also reflects the beauty and class of the ambience.The waiter was top notch, and guided us skillfully through the ins and outs of what to order, etc, as we were, for the most part, unfamiliar with the cuisine.it was a wonderful experience! I highly recommend this place of fine dining.”

Pizza • $$
“Really enjoyed our meal here last night, but two small suggestions. The Zucchini noodle salad was quite bland and flavorless. A few toasted pine nuts for a bit of crunch and possibly a bit of chili oil or even a flavorful shaved cheese addition could punch this up a bit. We also saved the leftover balsamic dipping sauce from our bread order and drizzled it around on our Margarita pizza when it came. 😍😍😍!! This took this pizza to the next level! I highly recommend making this small addition a permanent menu change to this pizza! Also was really looking forward to the Caprese salad, but they didn’t have it available which is how we ended up with the zucchini. It was a bummer they were out cause while we were sitting there we heard 2 other tables trying to order it as well. Thanks again though for a fantastic Friday evening meal!”
Wine Bar • $$
“All around wonderful vibe! The wine is delicious, the staff is extremely helpful and the atmosphere is perfect. Visiting from out of state, I was excited to try some Arizona wine and Arizona Wine Collective did not disappoint!”

“Went here with friends. The granddaughter of the founding owners was our server. Charming young lady and she gave us excellent service. I had the corvina special. OMG, it was so fresh and perfectly cooked. Moist and tender, just excellent! It was served with steamed carrots and a pasta with a yummy pesto sauce on it. The bread was delicious too. Highly recommend.”

“We love Kingfisher so much that we had our wedding there 4 years ago. So of course we celebrated our anniversary there last night! New owner Jackie and her wonderful staff saw to it that we had a wonderful meal, including a very special dessert. When Murph and his partner retired we were concerned about how the place would change but our subsequent visits have been wonderful. Highly recommend this place to anyone who appreciates great food and fabulous service!”
Italian • $$
“My husband, daughter and I tried dinner here for the first time last night and were not disappointed! The atmosphere was very casual and the service and food were both amazing! We had the bruschetta, carbonara, pollo parm and finished off with a slice of cheesecake! I love that they brought the dessert selection out on a tray so you can see everything that’s available before choosing. The visual of the actual food sometimes sways you and makes all the difference! We will be back for sure and I can’t wait to try something new!”

“In the heart of Old Town Tucson, in its most atmospheric area, this is one of the most unique restaurants we have visited in this city. The timeless décor of yesteryear, fused with its woodgrain façade, it is simplicity in itself, yet alluring in nature, encapsulating soul of and feel of the old, with an iconic clash between chic and classic and new. And the eats, well, they’re almost if not as unique as the atmosphere. From some exceptionally fine wines and cocktails, and entrees worthy of gluten haters, vegans, and vegetarians, as well as meat lovers such as I. From Pâté De Campagne to Smoked Whitefish Rillettes, or from Angus Beef Tartare to Wild Boar Birria Bucatini, there is bound to be something here for everyone, regardless of predilections. This relaxing, quaint, and comfortable locale is easy on your wellbeing, relaxing and comfortable, superbly serviced and by any means considered incredible eatables! The food is terrifically prepared, served and devoured. A must visit while in Tucson… and if you are a local, lucky you.”
Sushi • $$
“Ginza! We’ve been regulars since their opening day. Fantastic food and warm service. They are now open for carryout and need our support. Please support this wonderful family owned local business and enjoy the finest sushi and Japanese cuisine on earth. Open 4:00 - 8:00. Closed on Mondays.”

“Our waiter, Marcus,, was exceptional! Fun and knowledgeable and very service oriented. The noise level was very high and our friend thought his sandwich of chicken was very tough. Marcus wanted to replace his meal but our friend declined his gracious offer. The poke bowl was the best ever! We will return!”

“Ourstanding food and service. Reasonable pricing and many dishes are marked as Gluten Free for those customers. (I'm told that the Chef is also a gluten-free consumer.) You also could be very lucky to have Bree as your server. I'm not sure how she spells her name, but she is the "epitome of restaurant service". We keep going back, and going back, and going back. Highest recommendations.”

“Speaking of El Charro Cafe, let me just say that the dining experience there was a gastronomic rollercoaster of delight. WOW! The food was insanely good, the kind that makes your taste buds do a little happy dance. The portion sizes? Let's just say you won't leave hungry, and the plate presentation is worthy of an art exhibit. The service and ambience didn't disappoint either; it was the cherry on top of our savory outing.”

“Had amazing experience here with my family tonight! Food was out super fast, the owner Sunny had tons of great recommendations and suggestions from the menu. I was skeptical at first about the nest basket only having two tenders, but when they arrived at the table they were HUGE. The Tikka masala mac n cheese was also great sized portions for the price and the flavor was amazing. The fries were super crisp, not a single soggy fry in the basket! Definitely coming back here again and again!!”

“First, let me say that these wonderful people (Marlee, Christi, Tara, and the Tucson crew) went above and beyond to help me set up a surprise anniversary meal for my wife. That is just who they are. However, the reason that YOU should go to Sweet Tomatoes is that it IS Sweet Tomatoes. As others have mentioned, we have missed this restaurant since it shut down a few years ago. This Tucson location (the only one currently open in the USA) is perfectly representative of the Sweet Tomatoes that we love and remember. The food is so fresh and delicious. We had such old favorites like Tuna Tarragon and Caesar Asiago Salad. The soups and pasta dishes were outstanding. We especially enjoyed the Roasted Ratatouille Soup and the Coconut Muffins. The atmosphere was excellent as the dining area and serving lines were laid out in the same way as they were back in the day. The staff here are so professional, helpful and friendly. They are the best. If you loved Sweet Tomatoes before, you will be delighted with this Tucson location. Let's hope that they will be opening up in more areas of the USA soon.”
