50 Best Seafood Restaurants in Tucson

“FOOD WAS VERY DELICIOUS!!😃😃 I WOULD RECOMMEND THE CALDO DE CAMARON AND THE CEVICHE.... ME AND MY FAMILY WILL SURELY COME BACK AGAIN... 👍 👍 👍“

“It’s been 13 years since I last dined at the Flying V Bar & Grill at the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort in Tucson, and my recent return was both a nostalgic trip and a delightful rediscovery. The restaurant’s ambiance has only become more spectacular over time—walk through the elegant wooden doors and you’re greeted by a warm, Southwestern-inspired interior, with rustic wooden beams, earth-toned walls, and glowing pendant lights that create an inviting lodge-like feel. Just beyond lies the terraced deck, where you can sip your cocktails while gazing out over a serene lake, the well-manicured golf course, and the breathtaking Catalina Mountains and the Tucson city lights in the distance. It’s a magical setting that showcases the desert’s natural beauty in all its twilight glory.

We began our evening with two signature cocktails: the PICANTE COWBOY and the CROWN JEWEL. The PICANTE COWBOY—featuring Maker’s Mark, Ancho Reyes Verde, ginger agave, lemon, and hellfire bitters—offered a bold, smoky flair underpinned by a subtle peppery kick. The ginger agave added a pleasant sweetness, balancing the tang of the lemon and spice from the bitters perfectly. Meanwhile, the CROWN JEWEL—mixed with Patron Reposado, pineapple turbinado, and orange bitters—delivered a tropical fruitiness that was neither saccharine nor overpowering. Both drinks were impeccably balanced and showcased thoughtful mixology, though at a premium price point. Sipping these alongside a basket of fresh artisan bread and a luxuriously whipped butter “concoction” felt like a quintessential Southwest indulgence.

For dinner, we shared the GRILLED PRAWNS—a dish composed of leche de tigre, cucumber, serrano, coconut milk, cilantro, and confit squash. The flavors dazzled with their bright acidity, creamy coconut undertones, and fresh herbal notes. My only critique was the portion—three sizable prawns made it awkward to share, and we found ourselves playfully vying for the “odd one out.” Moving on to our main course, we opted for the CHILEAN SEABASS. Presented in a pool of walnut consommé with kabocha squash and a dusting of pistachio matcha, the fish was expertly cooked to a buttery, flaky finish, seasoned just enough to enhance without overwhelming its natural richness. Curiously, both dishes arrived with the same slice of undercooked squash. While flavorful in theory, the squash’s firm texture left parts of it inedible. It was a minor misstep but noticeable given the otherwise refined execution of the plates.
Service throughout the evening was prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable—servers appeared at just the right moments, kept our glasses filled, and were eager to answer any questions. The romantic atmosphere, panoramic views, and the warm glow from the interior’s rustic décor all contributed to a memorable night.

Though portion sizes were on the modest side—particularly for the price—the overall experience of dining at the Flying V Bar & Grill remains elevated by the quality of the cuisine, the captivating setting, and the attentive service. After 13 years away, I’m delighted to report that Flying V continues to shine as one of Tucson’s most distinctive and enjoyable dining venues.

“These are the best tacos in tucson. Not only that, but the variety on the menu is amazing. The owners are very nice. We ordered the shrimp boil and one of each type of taco. Everything tastes extremely fresh and is well seasoned without hiding the meats. I'm from the northeast and can usually tell how long the seafood was frozen. (Fun facts, almost all seafood, no matter how close to the ocean you live, is shipped frozen). If you asked me where to get the best tacos in Tucson, I would send you here. (Likely with some terrible directions on my part).

Kid-friendliness: I think the menu is kid friendly.

Parking: Large open lot with a dollar store nearby.“

“Todo muy delicioso y limpio“

“Ate there this July-first time. Food good, prices good. Couldn’t hear myself think for the blaring tv overhead. Walls bounce sound aplenty, try application or turn tv off“

“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

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp to the entry door.“

“I had an amazing experience at Guadalajara’s Grill thanks to our incredible waiter, Alex. He was attentive, caring, and made sure every detail of our meal was perfect. The food came out promptly, and everything was delicious, but it was his excellent service that truly stood out. He anticipated our needs without being intrusive and made us feel genuinely welcomed. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated to creating a wonderful dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning and hope to have him as our waiter again!“

“Javier is a excellent server good and kind food came out quickly thanks Javier.“

“Today’s lunch at Chef Brian’s Comfort Kitchen was nothing short of delightful. I had the pleasure of dining with my neighbor, and from the moment we stepped through the door, we were warmly welcomed by the attentive staff—and even greeted personally by Chef Brian himself.

We both opted for the salmon croquettes, and they were absolute perfection. Generously portioned, beautifully crisped, and paired with an incredible sauce that elevated every bite. For my side, I chose the sweet potato and sage soup, which was savory, well-balanced, and deeply flavorful. My neighbor offered a taste of her sweet potato bites, which were just as impressive—expertly cooked and seasoned with care.

Service was top-notch throughout. The staff was not only friendly but also impressively attentive, bringing us take-home containers before we even asked. It’s the kind of thoughtful touch that sets a great dining experience apart.

As we were finishing our meal, Chef Brian came out to thank us personally and invited us to return. It was a kind gesture that made the visit feel that much more special—and we absolutely will be returning.

Other highlights include ample parking, and pleasant background music at just the right volume, allowing for easy conversation.

Final Verdict: A+
Chef Brian’s Comfort Kitchen lives up to its name in every way—comforting food, warm hospitality, and an inviting atmosphere. Can’t wait for our next visit!“

“Great place ! All the food is delicious and the staff is amazing“

“Nice Place to Visit“

“The service is among the best in Tucson, our server is always welcoming, prompt and extremely knowledgeable about the menu and specials, no matter who serves us when we go. The menu is expansive and everything sounds delicious, but I keep coming back for the chef’s creative specials. 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!“

“OK, Nightjar has no food, but the food at its partners is absolutely outstanding, so there.
Nevin served a delightfully perfect Macallan 12 while helping me amend an upcoming reservation. Now I sit on the patio, just after sunset with candles and Edison lights writing this while sipping. Get the idea? This place is sublime.“

“Delightful and delicious !! A real gem for Tucson dining !! Classy artistic decor and atmosphere. Service designed to please !! Gets busy about 5:00pm. Recommend reservations on weekends especially“
