HsiaoCheng W.

A little unassuming pizza shop near downtown. They have great pizza with a nice undercarriage that's got great crunch. The staff were super nice and pleasant. They even got anchovies. They also got wings and deserts but we were simply eating too full.

Pesce Fritto with risotto
Emma F.

Los Olivos is INCREDIBLE!!! Their special Pesce Fritto is one of the best dishes anywhere. The fish is very tender with veggies, capers, lemon- delicious!!! I sub the risotto for spaghetti, but the risotto is very good too. The cannolis are great, the bread roll comes out hot and the olive oil at the table is flavorful. Everything I've ever had is very very good.

Capicola 14"
Cheyenne H.

Wonderful place! Capicola 14" Right amount of chew and crunch to the crust. Toppings were delicious! Friendly place with seating available inside and outside. Hidden gem on the West side! They had various specials listed in addition to their regular menu. I will return again!

Pesce Fritto
Alex C.

I have to say, we have been driving past this place for years. This time we decided to take a chance and stop. I was at first hesitant because I didn't see any cars in the parking lot. Man am I glad I got over my hesitance. It's a small place nothing fancy or over done. Friendly service, super clean and homey. The food! It is so delicious! You would think because of the name that it's an Italian Mexican fusion but it's just Italian in the most satisfying way. We had a slice of margherita pizza, my husband and I shared the los olivos salad and he has the pesce fritto so delicious. He just had to order the mussels, they came in a steaming pot filled with delicious garlic butter and the softest bread to sop up the garlic butter. I can't say enough about this place.

Seafood Cioppino
Deanie R.

The exterior look of the place in no way matches the delicious food that came out of the kitchen. We had heard about this place from a friend and when I pulled up, I almost backed up and what to another nearby restaurant instead. But you should never judge a book by its cover right? And the recommendation came from a friend with a great palate so I forged on. I am so glad I did! This place was magnificent. After the first couple of bites I was already planning what I would try on my next visit. We had the Polpo Special Salad, Shrimp al Olivo and Seafood Cioppino. Having been to Italy, this is the kind of Italian food I love! Not the overly garlic laden, cheese loaded monstrosities that Italian food has turned into in the US, but simple yet flavorful food that is not heavy and perfectly portioned. The Polpo Greca Special salad was amazing! I wish it would stay available for a return visit. The prices of Octopus were generous and cooked perfectly to retain a great chew and sweetness. Served with red onion, tomato, cucumber, Kalamata olives, basil, avocado, feta cheese, a breadstick and a delicious lemon and olive oil dressing. It was so simple and flavorful that it instantly took me back to a little cafe off the coast of Capri. Great start to a great meal. The Shrimp al Olivo was equally simplistic and amazing. A tomato sauce evenly flavored with garlic, green olives, white wine and basil. The perfect example of less is more. All of the flavors incorporated seamlessly. The Seafood Cioppino was almost the same dish but with fish, mussels and clams added. The plates weren't huge portions but satisfying. I actually would order concentrated flavor and presentation then a lot of food for not a lot of quality. We found out they make house made panettone and the pizzas looked amazing. We will be back soon to try both and maybe have a few Peronis for good measure. If you heavy been, make a point to try out this local gen.

Lunch special- pepperoni pizza & salad
Susana L.

Lunch spacial $10.95!! -slice of pizza, salad & drink! Amazing crispy pizza. The salad has a mediterranean taste. The slice of pizza is larger than I thought! It's delicious. Indoor & outdoor sitting.

Los Olivia salad
Granite G.

Absolutely delicious! It's a small hole in the wall place, order at the counter and they bring it to you. I had the pan fried whitefish with capers, tomatoes and fresh lemon. Husband had spaghetti and meatballs. Both came with the BEST garlic bread. We split a Los Olivia salad with an oregano vinaigrette dressing that was so good. I can't wait to go back!

Side salad
Ileana C.

This place is unassuming. A little neighborhood place on the side of the street. Anyone knows that the small tucked away places tend to be among the best. This place doesn't disappoint. Theres a great tasting selection of appetizers, sandwiches, pizzas, calzones, salads, pasta dishes. They even have a selection of beverages including wine and beer. Two pizza sizes 14" and 18". Really can go here and always find something to enjoy. All the dishes are great tasting. In the past I've had the pizzas. Every one I've ever tried has been quite tasty. On this occasion I had the meat ball sandwich and my friend had the calzone. The sandwich was perfect. Hit the spot with nice meatballs in a great marinara sauce perfectly topped with cheese on a great roll that was neither hard nor soft. It held up perfectly and was a pleasure to eat. The calzone was a decent size. Filled with sausage, pepperoni, mozzarella and ricotta. Looked amazing when they cut into it. I was told it was creamy, nicely flavored. One of the better calzones my friend has ever eaten. It disappeared quite fast so I believe it. Both the meatball sandwich and the calzone came with a side salad. If you decide to try this little place out, there is a small enclosed patio in which you can enjoy your meal or you can do take out like we did. Either way you can be assured of having a very satisfying meal at a reasonable price.

The crew
Edgar U.

Pizza was delicious. Brought four kiddos, who typically don't eat the crust, and they cleared their plates. We opted for a whole pie, but they have options for by the slice purchases. Lots of other options if you're not up for pizza, but wanting Italian cuisine. Staff was also friendly and would check up on us from time to time to see if we were doing OK.

We asked if they could bring it over next door to the Broadway, and they happily said yes , plus, they gave us a 10% discount! Great service, tasty sandwiches, and such a nice experience overall.

However, I have to give 3 stars for the overall execution of my meal. I had a half of a Hammer sandwich which was about $8. It's ham, soppressata, cheese, lettuce, tomato, banana peppers, dijon, vinegar, oil, garlic sauce. Unfortunately, I felt that my sandwich came with skimpy toppings. I got a pretty thinly stacked layer of ham and 2 little ovals of soppressata. The cheese was barely present. I also would have loved more tomato. I got a good amount of lettuce and banana peppers, though! Unfortunately, I just couldn't taste the meat and cheese toppings super well due to their being not much of them on the sandwich. The flavor of all the other ingredients were good, though. My friend got the Scramwich on Foccacia for $14. Looking at it, I could also tell it had not much proscuitto. Upon further inspection opening one of the halves of the sandwich... it was definitely only a few little smaller pieces of proscuitto. (The other toppings were on the other piece of bread, don't worry, those were fine) Sorry for the ugly photo - hard to really capture it without dissecting the thing. I also just noticed while looking at the photo again that one of the pieces of arugula also had black spots on it... Definitely not very fresh. My friend still enjoyed the foccacia, sundried tomatoes, and other toppings, but also felt there wasn't enough proscuitto. For the price, I would hope for a sufficient amount of meat. Heard a lot of hype about Quisty's and I see great potential in their quality and concepts! With better execution I'd definitely consider coming back. It's just hard to justify paying as much as we did for sandwiches that were skimpy on arguably one of the most important toppings!

We chose this place as we were passing through Tucson at lunchtime between different morning and…read moreafternoon venues. This place is located in an artsy / entertainment district close to downtown. When we went, there was road construction nearby that made getting here more challenging. Once we located it, the next challenge was parking. We visited around noon on a Saturday. There are no large parking lots, so you have to find something on-street. We ventured a couple of blocks off the main street and found something. However, the signage wasn't really clear on whether you had to pay on weekends or not. We accessed the parking app via a QR code, but it told us that our space 'was not available', despite the fact that we were in the space. A guy leaving the space next to us confirmed that parking *was* free on weekends, so we trusted that and walked to the restaurant. In retrospect, I think the app meant that we did not need to pay, but 'not available' seems a bit vague for that... The restaurant is located on a strip of old storefronts that now house restaurants, record shops, etc. There was a lot of pedestrian traffic out front, including a homeless guy asking for change. The atmosphere was sort of a loud, slightly cramped dive bar. I don't mean that in a bad way, but that was the vibe. The music was loud - none of it was familiar but I didn't hate it. I guess my point is that if you are looking for a quiet spot for lunch, this is probably not it. We initially were offered a table on their covered patio. We left one person there while sorting out parking, but when we came back they had a booth inside so we grabbed that instead. The patio seemed shaded and semi-comfortable, other than a loud barking dog. We browsed the menus and ordered our food. We all got half-and-half combos (soup/salad or sandwich/soup). The only issue was that the soups came in a bread bowl. I was able to finish my soup, but felt bad about not eating more of the bowl. If I'd had the option, I would have gotten a plastic bowl. The salad was pretty big, despite being only half. I finished most of it. We ended up having sufficient leftovers from others such that we took them back to our hotel (a relatively short drive) and finished them the next evening. All the food was tasty. This wasn't what I was expecting, but I'd consider eating here again given the right circumstances / group.

Went here with zero expectations Was so pleasantly…read moresurprised! When first entering it's a very small booths and bar but if you continue down the hall past the bathrooms they have a big open outside/indoor patio seating area! Great if you have kids or pets with you So the food. Honestly some of the best sandwiches I've ever had Their combo with the bread bowl and half a sandwich is hard to beat to be honest. A little bit of both worlds there I recommend eating the bread bowl first because it's more filling that you think and you can take the sandwich home They have a wide range of options for everyone And even offer a picky kid friendly sandwiches like PB & J, might sound boring or normal but that was the best PB & J I've ever had The staff is very nice and helpful They run the bar also and will bounce between the bar and your table So if the bar is busy I'm sure it could take a bit for you to order at your table Great food Great environment And friendly people Highly recommended!

Overall decor was nice, tall ceiling and lots of space. Menu is pretty well sized, as there's options for a little bit of something for everybody. I'm sure we've all been to places similar to this. The Monica is a bit nicer than some of those other ones I've been to. The way ordering is done here is at the counter after you walk in through the main door, just go straight to the counter to order. Staff here were nice, no issues there. We got a couple of things to eat today. I myself got the beef steak sandwich, which came with fries, and an au jus like sauce. It was good. Decently sized portions for the sandwich and also the fries. Not really sure what the faux au jus sauce was, but it was just okay. But the NY steak strips were tender, and good. Definitely a philly cheesesteak ish type feel to this sandwich. Final verdict; The Monica is a jack of all trades kind of a restaurant which I'm sure we've all had in our own areas. The Monica is probably a bit nicer than the ones I have had around me, but I wouldn't exactly call it fancy. Certainly a nice spot to relax, drink, and just be simple dine and perhaps a drink. I would come back if I'm ever back in the area.

Upon arrival there was one bag ready to go with receipt stapled to the outside. I just saw the total price in the largest print and it was exactly right. Someone asked my name, I called it out, and they rang up the bag. I decided to just sit down for 5 minutes and enjoy the sandwich fresh since I had requested that it be toasted (they will now toast any sandwich - a game changer!) But the sandwich I opened was cold. I went back and said, hey, I'm super easy going, I was just wondering if you guys could still toast this? Fernando came over and was super apologetic. He then asked to see the receipt to troubleshoot the oversight and, lo and behold, different name, not the bootlegger, and not toasted. Wrong Bag! He promptly had my sandwich made (which apparently never came through on the app). At the same time the person whose bag I had paid for called in and said he had ordered his sub to the wrong location! Fernando was terrific about fixing everything. And, yes, the bootlegger toasted (with added crispy onions and cucumbers and no mayo) was ready lightening fast and terrific. The venue is hard to park at but the tables are typically clean and the fountain drinks are easy to access.
