    Breakfast Menu
    Mick B.

    The lookout was just what we were looking for after a long day of travel. (See what I did there?) Well curated southwest style dishes and excellent service made our visit a delight. Do check the specialty cocktail menu for a nice selection of beverages. A bit spendy, but we felt we got a good value for what we paid. Our only complaint is it is hard to see what is probably a spectacular view due to the glare from the harsh indoor lighting.

    a menu and a glass of water
    Mike M.

    My wife and I came here to listen to the music and grab a dinner. We were greeted and sat down by very friendly person. We then sat there for 30 minutes drinking water and nobody ever came back. I posted a picture of our table after 30 minutes, just two menus and two waters. The manager walked by us five times and there were two couples that were sat down after us ordered and got their food and we were still waiting for somebody. Our server finally came up and we said no thank you we're just gonna leave. We were prepared to pay probably $60 for two dinners instead we went to a different place. I gave it a two because the music was pretty good.

    a plate of steak and french fries

    We made reservations online for 6:45 PM because we wanted to try a new place. When we arrived inside of the Lookout Restaurant, no one greeted us. We stood around and had to ask one or two of the servers at the bar where we needed to go. Finally, Karisa Ranlord (we later found out was the manager according to our server) came up to us and asked if we had a reservation. She seemed very confused when we gave her our name and then she asked if we made it on OpenTable (we had). She had a stack of papers with notes written on the back of what looked like a children's menu and a handwritten seating chart that she was scanning for our name. Finally, she took us to the patio to a corner table (with no heat lamp) and another party's name on the table. We ordered appetizers, drinks and dinner. The appetizers came, but no one came back to our table again (not even to refill water) after that until 7:45. The manager and servers seemed to know the other guests, and they were super friendly with a few of the tables around us, but never made it back to ours. It was like being at a party you weren't invited to. Very surreal. The original server who took our order never returned, and then a new guy finally brought our meal (an hour later). We asked him about our drinks and if he could bring us some more water (& my daughter asked for mayo for her sandwich). About 10 more minutes passed and he didn't return. Finally I went and found him at the bar and told him we just wanted to cancel the drinks, we just wanted our check and more water. He was holding the mayo for my daughter and said nothing. I took it and left. Ten more minutes passed and he actually came out with the drinks I told him to cancel. We asked him again to just bring the check and water, no drinks and he said he would send the manager. We told him we just wanted the check and didn't want to speak with the manager. Soon the manager wandered over (after she and the server had a super obvious conversation in the dining room where they pointed at our table) and asked "Is there a problem here?". We explained we just wanted our check and to leave and that we had waited for our drinks and food for over an hour without even a water refill. We felt invisible and totally ignored. She said she would comp our bill which was fine but it was New Year's Eve and they completely ruined it for us. Honestly, it was a totally ridiculous and bizarre situation and needless to say , we will never return or recommend it to anyone.

    Tequila pasta, Steak bites, and Tucson chicken sandwich

    Amazing food!! This place is underrated. Tequila pasta is to die for. We had a amazing server named Anthony. Will be coming back. :)

    Enjoying live jazz during Happy Hour 1600-1800. Ordered the quesadilla and it came in waves. First the three folded tortillas with melted cheese inside and a cup of salsa. Thinking that was it, I began eating and then another sever arrived with the guacamole and sour cream. Not very organized. It was okay. Happy Hour margarita $6 and quesadillas $7.

Go around the building to the right side of the landing and follow the path until you get to a green wall and you've made it. Thank you to the staff at the Landing for directing us! The whole ambiance in here is incredible. It's bright and sunny outside but it's dark and moody inside Cabali. The lighting in here really helps set the tiki mood. To drink I got the desertcomber (essentially an old fashioned) and my husband got the shoreline spritz (non alcoholic). Yes, the drinks are expensive but they pack a punch! We paired our drinkies with an order of the coconut shrimp. These were really good! Would order again. Overall, this is more a splurge night out but it's a fun place for a date night or to bring friends.

We learned that the mugs are part of the owner's personal collection, which he has been building for years. That makes the atmosphere feel even more special and authentic. Hayden was our bartender and a true mixologist. He was extremely knowledgeable about the drinks and the history behind the place, including the artwork created by someone from the University of Arizona's art department. We loved hearing the stories behind all the details. Alex ordered the Desert Comber, and I had the Painkiller. Both drinks were phenomenal--and very strong, which made them even more phenomenal-om-om-om! We also shared the shishito peppers, which were delicious. The entire experience was unique, fun, and memorable. It truly feels like you've escaped Tucson and entered another world. A huge thank-you to Hayden for being so cool, welcoming, and fun to talk to--you made our first visit even better! We will absolutely be back!

Clean where it needs to be. 4 stars Service-Hanna was the BEST, taking time to listen to food/drink requests and make solid, helpful recommendations. Circled back a couple times to check status. 5 stars Food-Inconsistent. Devils on Horseback bacon wrapped dates were fire, perfect crunch on bacon. Coconut shrimp needed to be butterflied. Mac n Cheese was wonderful, pulled pork on top needed spice. The patty melt patty was inexplicably rubbery. Nutty buddy cheesecake was perfect. 3 stars Will go again. They have AYCE spaghetti on Mondays.

It has quite a few tables and a large dance floor. What I loved: I'm not much of a country person, but I absolutely love the cover band they have come through on Fridays. They sounded so polished, and there were so many people dancing! The bar has a small but well-curated assortment of craft beers, and there's a menu too if you didn't grab dinner before going out. What I liked: They make a pretty good burger, and this would be a fine place to watch sports if you squeeze in before the live music plays. I might be a bit too young to be Outlaw's target audience (This is Gen X turf), but I still had fun here and certainly look forward to coming back.
