    Huevos Rancheros
    Fernando R.

    If you want a quick bite, with delicious authentic Mexican food. This is one of the great places to come. It's a little hole in the wall Mexican food restaurant that has been here for decades. They have great options on authentic Mexican food, and you could also order takeout if needed. They have recently remodeled it, and everything is nice and clean and you. The staff does a really good job of upkeep in the place. The staff is really friendly accommodating, and they work fast and hard to bring out your food. I've been here several times in the past, and I usually get the menudo. It is always fresh, they bring you all of the condiments to put on it on the side. It comes with a side of bread with butter nice and toasted perfect for those days when you feel like a soup. On this trip we ordered the chorizo, well rancheros, and the Chilaquiles. They were all fantastic delicious flavor and me to order. One of the best parts about it is the beans that it comes with. Reminds me of being at my moms, or my Nanas house getting the beans straight from the pot and eating them. If you need a place to eat breakfast or lunch on the weekends. Make sure that you were ready to wait a little bit, they do get busy from time to time. But if you don't have a lot of time to order takeout and you will be very pleased with what you receive.

    Red menudo

    This place has a home cooked feel, with nana serving you and consistently trying to serve you more. The caldos here are my absolute favorite. The same can be said for many locals in the area who cam be seen waiting in line Saturday and Sundays with their ollas for menudo and fresh birote.

    Every time I visit Tucson from LA i come to this joint for menudo. They serve two kinds, white or traditional red menudo with or without the corn. I dig the White pura carne no corn. Hands down the best menudo in Tucson or LA in my opinion. I buy two 1 gallon buckets. One to enjoy with my family here in Tucson and one to freeze and take back to LA to enjoy.

    The right side of the menu. Glad to see menudo without hominy as an option.

    I arrived at this place and the parking lot was packed so a good sign; however, the parking lot layout is odd. The restaurant was very busy and it felt like I was eating in Mexico. I was glad to see menudo offered without hominy. It was my first time seeing white onions instead of green onions for menudo in the Tucson market. All other markets I've seen white onions. My meal started with complimentary chips and salsa. I wasn't a fan of the watery salsa. It was cool to see menudo with tripe only, but the broth wasn't too flavorful. Overall good place.

    Cheese enchiladas
    Peg P.

    Jalisco offers a very inexpensive way to get some delicious tasting Mexican food. Their chile rellenos are tasty and their enchiladas have a wonderful rojo sauce along with being filled with Mexican cheese, not cheddar. You get a side of corn tortillas and all the chips you can eat. That's a good deal. The beans and salsa were somewhat average in taste but it's not a deal breaker by any means. The restaurant itself is pretty utilitarian in design with nothing flashy or colorful adorning the walls. Just a TV tuned in to some great Mexican soap operas that you can understand no matter what language you speak. Jalisco is also a little store and offers a nice variety of sauces and tortillas. Service was great.

    This restaurant also has groceries (canned goods, beverages, tortillas, bread,etc.). We tried a bean and cheese burro, carne asada burro, chicken quesadilla and a birria burro. The waitress and staff were friendly and fast. The food was just okay - nothing was great. The shredded chicken in the quesadilla was not very good. It seemed like almost every table was ordering the menudo (both red and white menudo / mostly red). So this place must be known for their menudo.

    Very good "family" style restaurant. Quality exceeds prices, the staff here make you feel right at home when dinning here or takeout. We just had our first experience here and we'll definitely be back soon! The tortillas are freshly made here and they are very delicious. We for sure recommend coming in to enjoy a flavorful meal. By the way they also have live music too!

There's a separate building you can buy local retail, as well as a café where I ordered a dirty Horchata (not realizing it had coffee lol), a sandwich with fries, and one of the baked desserts (a brownie with something I can't remember lol). All the food was great. As a french fry lover, I have to say that the fries were fantastic! Once you order, you're able to find a place to sit, and the food is brought to you. I would def return!

    I was finally able to make it back to Coronet Cafe for breakfast and had another great experience…read more I love the outdoor seating, as it feels so quaint and peaceful. I also love that the menu strives to be locally sourced. The food is very fresh! The service from the counter is fairly fast, which was especially great for us, as we were short on time. This time ordered the Simply Eggy Breakfast. The marmalade was unique and the eggs were perfectly poached. The portions are standard, so there will likely be no leftovers. For the portions though, I would say the price is a little on the higher end. To finish my friend got a tahini brownie on the way out and we found it to be very pleasant and not overly sweet. I would love to try their coffees and teas!

The line was the usual long line and with my dog, was much better as people talk and pet dogs in line and it went fairly fast. The line was in shade with the nearby tree so it made it that much better. The ambiance is the misters around that are welcomed by all, the pretty tree and greenery and fencing and signage they have used to decorate this small outdoor place so well. The shaded and covered tables outside had various chairs and enough space for people to rotate in and out- esp with our dogs that love the cool brick to lie on:) Now, the absolute best part is the food- still amazingly worth waiting for and delicious!! I got the burrito( basic has potato, egg, beans , cheese) and the protein I added was bacon and extra was guac. Also got the 16oz Dirty Chai. My friend came for first time and was surprised to open her order and find two burritos- I knew and wanted to see her face- she loved the taste and the fact she had lunch or dinner later as one truly is so full of deliciousness- it fills you up! We each had one we took home ! This place- just a treat for anyone wanting fantastic and pure local service and food! Highly recommend!!!

    Nice restaurant. Been here a few times, some with colleagues for lunch…read more Food is good. I've had a variety of things, some Mexican dishes, some American. Did a breakfast once. I wouldn't say that it is top of the line cooking, but it is very delicious and definitely worth a visit this side of town. Parking can be a little challenging, they do share a parking lot with other businesses, but close in, there are not that many spots. Service is always friendly and makes you feel comfortable. Interesting atmosphere with flamingos galore and other things decorating the inside. Gives it somewhat of a party and fun feel. Food comes out in a timely manner even when they are very busy. Prices are reasonable. Give it a try, I think you'll like it. 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!

    Teaspoon is one of the best overall restaurants in Tucson…read more I've been here a few times over the last year or so. It has never disappointed in service, quality or taste. (well once in taste, but I'll get to that) They have great in-house made items. Like the Challa bread, the preserves, their pesto. They most certainly know what they're doing. I had unseasoned filet mignon once, I believe it was the omelette. I talked to the manager. Now I wasnt upset, didn't send it back, I just told them what I experienced and mused that I found it odd the cook forgot a simple thing like salt. The manager acknowledged my complaint and that was all; or at least I was fine. Nope, she came back with a to-go box of croissants topped with cream and berries as an apology. They were tremendous by the way. She didn't have to do that. The ambiance is it's only weak point, but even that is minor. Simple black is fine. It's modern feeling and doesn't stand out loudly. They have outdoor seating, which early in the morning is fine, but id avoid in the summer, which will likely mean you'll be waiting, depending on the time. Oh! I forgot to mention, they have very good drinks. They really are intentional about the blend of flavors, they have a little something for everyone. All in all, I cannot recommend this place enough. It's been a shining star amongst Tucson restaurants and I am grateful they exist. Even to how they organize their menu partly by flavor profiles shows they genuinely LOVE food. I love food too, and I love here. Try this place. Today.

There is outdoor seating with small tables and misters to stay cool. The inside has a good amount of space and A/C is on spot. There is also a bar with a good number of seats available. This might be first come first served but I am not totally sure. The food is a really good spread of options. Pancakes, german pancakes, french toast, eggs benedict(s) monte cristo, omelets, croque madame, country chicken with biscuits and sausage gravy, chilaquiles con pollo, avocado toast, savory crepe, and even a breakfast pizza. Oh and they offer a few skillet options too-southwest, loaded baked potato, and sausage and peppers skillet. So many options!! I can't speak too much for lunch but I did see burgers on the menu. Not too helpful in that arena sorry. The eggs Benedict with ham was awesome. Side of potatoes with a bit of all seasoning and a side salad with awesome light dressing comes with it. The dutch baby was also great. A german pancake served savory with sausage. Huge portion. Come check this place out and make sure if you don't want to wait you call in advance when driving there and ask to get on their "wait list" you may not be able to get a reservation but you can do this. You're welcome.

    My girlfriend and I first tried coming here about three weeks ago for brunch, but there was a…read more45-minute wait, so we decided to come back another time. One thing that stood out during that first visit was the hostess. Since the restaurant is located inside a hotel and can be a little difficult to find, I expected a more welcoming introduction or at least some confirmation that we were in the right place. Instead, the interaction felt a bit awkward and impersonal. We returned a few weeks later (07/12/26) and happened to be greeted by the same hostess. Unfortunately, the experience was very similar. She asked how many people were in our party, I said two, and then she simply looked at her computer without saying much else. Another employee eventually came over and escorted us to our table. Throughout both visits, she never came across as particularly friendly or welcoming. As the first person guests interact with, I think a hostess sets the tone for the entire experience, so this was disappointing. On a more positive note, our waitress was very kind and attentive throughout the meal. The service once we were seated was definitely better than the initial impression. As for the food, it wasn't bad, but it also wasn't anything special, especially considering the price. Overall, it felt pretty average for what we paid. The ambiance was fine, but nothing particularly memorable. Overall, the experience was okay, but between the lack of hospitality at the front and the food being average for the price, I'm not sure I would go out of my way to come back.
