    a pile of crispy fried food

    Back again for my meat and sweet potato fix. Being March the Irish come out in droves. Beat'em back and senseless with those sweet potato thangs.

    I think we in the S/W side of Tucson get all of the "B rated restaurant chains, this is by far the worst Sam's I have been in.

    Had great service around 8pm, food came quickly, and I never needed to ask for a refill. The food isn't bad, pastrami sandwich is great!

    Buffalo Wild Wings is our go-to spot for casual dates and comfort food. The burgers and wings are…read morealways good, and there are so many sauce options to choose from. The atmosphere is laid-back and fun, perfect to relax, eat, and enjoy the game or just hang out. Service is usually fast and friendly. Great place for wings, burgers, and an easy night out.

    Visited August 16 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM. We decided that we…read morewould like to go here to have our little brunch today just on a whim. We read the reviews here on yelp and I gotta tell you we were a little worried that we were in for a terrible experience. But I am happy to report that that was not the case today! All the TVs were going full blast. There was baseball, football and golf playing everywhere and even though it could've been called loud. It really didn't hinder our table conversation at all. We walked in the door and stood there at the hostess desk for maybe 10 or 15 seconds and as it turned out, the bus boy spotted us and just came and told us to help ourselves to a table any table that we would like to sit at so we did . Within about a minute or two our server, Ashley, came by and asked if she could take our drink order. So we ordered a Michelob Ultra , an unsweetened iced tea and and a cup of soda water with lemon. We said we'd like to look at the menu for a few minutes since this was actually our first time at the restaurant and she said she would be happy to go and bring our drinks in the meantime. When she returned with our drinks, which was pretty fast, I took a swallow from the beer because it was already hot outside and we made our order. I ordered the 20 chicken wing traditional wing meal with large onion rings for the two of us. I asked that she break the order so that half of the wings would get the original buffalo sauce and that half the wings would just be plain. Probably about not even 10 minutes later our wonderful server who was actually very very sweet and paid attention to what we ordered and just was great helping us out came back with our food and we were ready to dig in. My wife's favorite was the onion rings if you can believe it, and she just loved them. The wings themselves were as good as any wings can be certainly good enough here. I thought that they were just on the slightly overdone side of being perfect. Maybe if a minute less in the fryer would've been perfect, but I understand some people like them on the dry side of this so that's understandable. Also, on the original buffalo sauce, they really lather it on good so the wings are really covered. I actually had to grab a napkin and wipe some of the sauce off because it was just too much even with what was left. It still had plenty of flavor and that original buffalo sauce is actually really really good so no complaints on the sauce just just a little bit on the cooking of the chicken. As it turned out the choice of getting the Michelob Ultra, as the beer was actually the perfect choice of beer. the flavor of the beer itself went perfectly with the flavors of the chicken spicy or not so I was really happy that the two went together really well. For the most part, we were left alone to enjoy the meal we could eat as leisurely as we wanted to, and she checked on us a few times to be sure things were going well and so no complaints on anything . Ashley was always very!very sweet and wonderful and and the food was good and I just have no complaints anywhere so our experience here today was really great. aAnd wifey, who is very tough on these places said that she would like to come back in and try this again sometime. She would probably try a different sauce, but there's plenty to choose from. So all in all good job Buffalo wild wings. We really enjoyed our lunch. Ashley was great as was our whole visit this afternoon. I hope this experience is more of the norm than what we were reading before we came.

Unfortunately we didn't find it here. The food itself was decent. My friend ordered the corn soup, jicama slaw, and battered cod tacos, along with a Paloma cocktail. His soup was somewhat bland, even after adding cracked pepper. The slaw was mediocre. The battered cod itself was good but it was somewhat soggy. He said the cocktail was meh. I ordered the short rib. It was excellent, very juicy and full of flavor, but the serving was extremely small. The broccoli was great, but portioned quite small. At $34, it's the kind of plating/portioning you'd expect at a fine-dining establishment with a cozy environment. This is more of a cafe feel, one open room with kids running around and screaming, bright lights, hard seats--in no way elegant. Sure, the building is called The Clubhouse, but the Starr Pass brand is refined and luxurious; which is why we were disappointed not to find those qualities at Creosote. Lunch with the family after golf? Yes, go for it. If you have lots of cash to spare. With tip, our bill totaled more than $180. I had water. My wife had one small serving of white wine. She thought her Shrimp Culichi was decent. But it was not better than what you can find for half the price at many Mexican restaurants in Tucson. One thing I can praise is the service. Our waitress was top tier friendly, respectful, and ready to help. She was great, in fact. Our complaint is that what you get is far from what is portrayed on IG as a luxurious, gourmet dining experience.
