Was there for the live music which was awesome. Sat on the patio and the service was great. We both had the cob salad. Had to take some home, very delicious.

Because we stay at the hotel that has this restraunt we have went their. The first few times was incredible. Decent portions and the prices were cheap. Over the last 4 months however he portions have drastically decreased and the prices haven't just went up they had a huge increase.

Every first and third Thursday of the month, live music is presented at 6 pm playing to an adult crowd for a couple hours, I got a buzz drinking Sprite while letting the world spin without me on duty. Refreshing is what it is.

Why can't this place open earlier and stay open late for the bar? People like to have a drink late!! Doesnt matter if it's a hotel. People come from outside to eat at hotels. I their own city!

Lackluster presentation and preparation. Ordered shrimp cocktail it was not fresh wrapped it in a tissue from my purse since the waitress was MIA. let her know it wasn't fresh one even had really terrible discoloration and she left it on my bill and when brought to her attention she said she could only give half off because one was gone. Unbelievable whatever happened to just making it right had she come back in a timely manner I was going to order something else. Pork Souvlaki was Lackluster also pita and tortilla aren't the same guys... oh and the drink was well tequila and they charged me for Don Julio smh. I'll keep venturing out because although It's on the hotel property, it is a convenient inconvenience

I would give this an absolute 0 star if I could, but this is definitely the worst place to go to if you want a relaxed and stress free weekend. Its was very loud and low staffed only one staff member for the whole floor. Over an hour for the food to even be ordered. Only saving grace was the waitress (only person on the floor) was kind.

Total Score 3/5Food/Beverage (1/3) - The presentation, look, and freshness of most ingredients are what gives this at least a 1 out of 3 stars for me. What drops the two other stars are the lack of flavor and the garlic seemed to be the only thing old. The food could have used a bit more salt and spices, it relied too much on the natural flavors which was lacking. The garlic in our Hummus Platter was old and we could tell because the garlic was over potent and spicy as can be. The wife's Pasta Carbonara was probably the best item we had, it did have good flavor and was plenty to share if you're not starving. I had the Paella which was large enough for 3 people but was bland. I add a squeeze of lemon for taste, but definitely was lacking in flavor. Finally, to drink I had a Vodka Martini standard with 3 olives; hard to mess that one up.Service/Staff (1/1) - No complaints here. It wasn't busy when we arrived, so the 1 server and 1 bartender were able to take care of us. They were polite and attentive to us.Location (1/1) - This one is interesting because it is a really nice, well kept restaurant, but it is located within the Sheraton Tucson Hotel & Suites. If you are not staying at the hotel you have to enter through a side entrance, go through a lobby, then you'll be able to enter the restaurant. Even though it is hidden, the cleanliness and look and atmosphere is what keeps this star.

I was here on Monday evening. They have a jazz band playing live music from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. These guys are great and are associated with the national award winning Tucson Jazz Institute. Every Monday night. I had the Spaghetti Carbonara. Wow! White sauce, bacon--yes bacon!--and peas. Yeah...peas. It actually worked quite well. The peas were a good complimentary flavor and texture. The whole thing was amazingly good. And the toast on ciabatta was perfect! Light toasty crunch on the outside with butter and garlic and nice fluffy bread on the inside. Youi can even order a side of this lovely bread. Since the jazz was outside, this is where I dined. It was chilly out but they had gas bonfires going that made it comfortable. I think the waitress was the only one working for both outside (where I dined and listened to the band) and inside, so I didn't get checked on as often as I would have liked. I had to get up and get my own drink refill from the bar, but I don't fault her. She was pleasant serving us. I recommend this restaurant and the Monday night jazz is a bonus. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

I cannot rave enough about this place! It was my first time dining with them and it was lunchtime. I got the chicken and havarti sandwich with fries. They brought me a selection of condiments to use. The staff was super friendly and helped me when I started to choke due to a health issue I already have and brought me fresh fries, bun and condiments when I ruined mine after only a few bites. They really went above and beyond in terms of service. As to the food itself all I can say is OMG AMAZING!!!

This is inside the Sheraton hotel. So be aware when you are searching for it The food is ok, the service is nice, the drinks are good!

The hotel staff is rude! No club like they say, they are only want you to buy from the restaurant, if you don’t do that you can eat anywhere in the hotel!! The hotel en general is very dirty!

Estuardo Montero
