    Mushrooms, zucchini sticks, onion rings. Fresh, hot and cooked at a proper temp so the oil does soak in the batter.

    Been coming here for a few years. Mostly on a day off, so it took me a while to meet Andy. He is a friendly, attention to detail bartender. His Bloody Mary's are top notch , and he knows how to work the bar. What I mean by that is everyone at the bar feels welcomed and appreciated. I cannot fully articulate how much people appreciate that. He offers suggestions for menu items, and all in all represents the establishment extremely well.

    So, I have been coming to this Famous Sam's for over 6 yrs and I have never left a review..‍‍.. Being a Yelper it's my duty to leave a review of my favorite spot.... From the ownership to the close friends and friendships I have made there says a lot about this place. The food, service and staff are top notch. They have different specials through the week.. Monday is half off wings.... Wednesday is $3 drafts Miller, Bud, Bud light, Miller.. And Pastrami is off the chain... They also have karaoke night, karaoke, trivia, visit their website. And it's family oriented.... For all ages... They also have an outside patio..

    We wanted some wings so we rode bikes here, only a mile from home. It just happened to be half price wing day so we had two pounds for the price of one. We had four different sauces on them. They were excellent! I had a Kilt Lifter Amber to go along with them. We had some to take home. Very nice place with great service.

    Bbq wings. Hardly any sauce. Honey hot wings also hardly any sauce. Then my sweet potato fries burnt.

    My first time ever trying this place. Not impressed. My sweet potato fries were burnt and my wings did not have much sauce on them. They were also dry so I couldn't finish eating them. I did a take out order. I had to find a waitress in order to see where I pick up my order.

    We were first greeted by Andy behind the bar who makes a delicious margarita! He recommended several food items and told us each nightly event. I had the Sam's classic and it was the best burger I've had in a very long time! We also had the club with was huge and also very delicious! It was nice and cold in the restaurant which was a perfect escape from the Tucson heat! Great place! Go see Andy!

    We went there because kids wanted to go and it had been awhile. We had sliders, quesadillas, Rueben, & chicken sandwich. Food was good, drinks were cold, & service was fast.

    I  absolutely love the sandwiches!!! My go to bar food that I recommend to anyone...

    As good as it gets for beer pricing, $2 drafts all day Wed including some good micro brews! Along with a lunch special, not so bad!

    I decided to revisit Trident, as it has been a few years. I usually go to another establishment,…read morebut we all need to venture out of our usual places now and again. I was greeted by the bartender who was SUPER friendly and made me feel very welcome. There were others at the bar that asked if I needed a seat at the bar. Very cool vibe. Sports bar vibe....with a family friendly place as well. The second bartender that relived the first one was..nice and friendly, but I did not get that "happy your here "feeling. I ordered the HH cod tacos with slaw, avocado lime sauce, and salsa. They were so good!! The blend of the fresh fish with the slaw....YUMMY. The fish was perfectly cooked. Crisp and not greasy, and so flavorful. I wondered why they delivered a bunch of napkins and ....a few bites in I realized. All over the face, and dripping down the chin....good!! :-) I got a burger to go, with added green chilies. I asked for rare, and I got medium to medium well. Sad panda, but it is still a good burger. I just really love to taste the burger at a rare temp. I also asked for a cup of the gumbo. My first bite was SO salty. I don't know if it was in storage or not fresh, but it was a salt lick. Could not taste the flavor past the saltiness. Good locals place, and prices are reasonable. I appreciate a Veteran owns the establishment and since I am a Veteran as well....I will always support Veteran owned!!

    Been here twice in two months - once during a weekday happy hour and once on a Saturday night…read more Different staff both times but the vibe was the same: annoyed that we came in at all, and apathetic at best. Two visits doesn't make a pattern. But so far my experience is that you can walk in at any time and receive the same dismissive attitude. To be clear, I don't necessarily fault the individuals - this is typically a management issue (coming from someone who has worked behind the bar). Bottom line, a simple hello goes a long way, just sayin. Our business favors those who realize their patrons have options. FWIW this is my first-ever "negative" review. In any state. Take that for what it is. If I don't like a place, I just don't go back. But there's a missed opportunity here, y'all. We went to a different Trident in Tucson and met the best server ever, no lie. IV, please get it together and we'll come back.
