    Food is mid, at best. Convenient location with an abundance of free parking. Upon entering, I was warmly greeted and immediately seated. Complimentary chips and salsa were served. Chips were mildly seasoned and absolutely delicious. Salsa was good with just a little kick. After looking over the menu, I decided to try a Cheese Quesadilla with Grilled Chicken, which arrived after a few short minutes. Umm... sadly, it was less than desirable. It was excessively greasy and lacked any real flavor, just an abundance of cheese. The accompanying guacamole didn't seem fresh and had an unusual creamy texture. Service was fast and friendly. Overall, it was a disappointing experience.

    Pretty good Mexican foods in Tucson I've... just having Fajitas and it tasted delicious and the guacamole, spicy and corn tortillas were right on!!! Services were excellent and efficient...

    Overall a good experience. Server was OK, but maybe he's new to industry? The food was very good, but I would get no hominy in my menudo next time. I asked for a little bit. The place is spacious and has a sports bar vibe. Definitely would come back.

    The food is so delicious and great customer service, they are so friendly. The corn tortillas are made by hand and were so yummy that was my favorite. Not a loud establishment with a very nice ambience. I got chicken mole one of my favorite dishes tasted so authentic. :)

    Quesabirria tacos.

    First time trying this place, based on the mostly positive reviews on Yelp. The quesabirria tacos were the bomb. The beef and cheese tasted authentic and delicious. Service was quick and Luis is super friendly and attentive. The restaurant also doubles as a rental hall, so it is a big space with plenty of room. Will definitely be back.

Ours was 1/2 that size x2. 2, 1/2 corn on cob not 2 full cobs as expected, but 1 cut in half. What a total rip off and false advertising!!! We complained the minute we saw how small the KING crab was. About 10 inches long total with about 3/4 inch in diameter in shell! Now I have had king crab before and the legs were at least 2 feet in length not 10". We went home hungry and $104.00 less in our pockets. Manager was our server and only gave us 10% off! This does even cover the cost of the sausages we paid for but never got. WE ARE NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN AND NOT RECOMMENDING!

We arrived around 7:30 p.m., and the restaurant doesn't close until 9:30 p.m. Not even 20 minutes after we sat down, while there were still plenty of customers coming in and the restaurant was nearly full, the staff had already started removing food trays and weren't replacing them. It felt like they were shutting the buffet down long before closing time. To make matters worse, employees were mopping the floors around our feet while we were still eating, leaving the floors extremely slippery and making us feel rushed. The BBQ/sushi area closed at 8:30 p.m., and there were only three plates of dried-out sushi left. We never even got the chance to try the BBQ station they advertise. The desserts were dry and unappetizing, and overall the food was bland and lacked flavor. We spent $112 for dinner, plus a $20 tip because our server was attentive, friendly, and deserved it. The service from him was the only positive part of our visit. For the price, this experience was not worth it. I do not recommend this restaurant and will not be returning.

The walls have (fake) graffiti on them; for some reason I thought of the Florida coast food shacks. The place was pretty empty for a Saturday lunch time. Our server (Maricella? Aricella?) arrived immediately, took our drink orders and then gave us enough time to look over the menu. She came back and took our orders and was very knowledgeable about the food. Friend ordered the (cold) lobster roll and onion rings; I ordered the shrimp basket with seasoned fries and cornbread. After a 10 minute or so wait, our food arrived. Friend said the lobster was good but a touch weak on the intensity of lobster flavor (Florida lobster perhaps?). Friend is from the coast in Massachusetts and so knows lobster. The onion rings were really good. My shrimp basket was perfect. The seasoned fries were much like the ones at Blakes Lottaburger and very good. The shrimp were breaded and fried with the tail on. The corn bread was tender and a touch sweet. Our drinks were kept full. The, I'm guessing, manager stopped by twice to see if we needed anything which was nice. This is a nice, hidden gem near downtown. The menu has so many options that everyone can find something to eat. We'll go back. I want to try more things on the menu.

Nestled a bit further down from Cobra Arcade at the front corner of the street it's on, just walk a bit further and you'll find CRUDA. Not a huge place, maybe about 8 or so actual tables, it's a quaint little spot that's surrounded by many other places that are a bit larger but not necessarily better since the other spots are just so crowded particularly at night. If you want a nicer spot to kick back and unwind, you definitely want to try out this spot first. The night we were there they had live music playing too, and since he spot is smaller but had decently taller ceiling, the sounds and acoustics in there actually wasn't bad. Nice to have someone jamming while you have a bite and a drink. The drinks here were sort of hit or miss for me. The drink I got wasn't bad, the drink my friend got was not good. A couple of drinks others got were also hit or miss. I think the cocktails here are just mediocre. The shots here were a bit pricey, but beggars can't be choosers perhaps. Food here was pretty good. Personal favorite, especially for the drinking crowd, that calamari basket was amazing. Came out piping hot and oh so tasty and perfectly fried. Compared to that hot mess of a fried calamari I had at JA Curry Ramen before, this was leaps and bounds ahead. Just a nice spot to be in if you're looking for more lowkey spots here, and one that isn't awful just because it's quieter for, different reasons. Would recommend.

Shrimp taco was exactly as described above with the toppings. The shrimp was way way waaayyy over cooked. Marine tacotote was interesting. It had a huge piece of fried fish, 2-3 fried shrimp, and a tomatoe vegetable, cheese medley with a grilled fish on the botttom. It was...nothing like I've ever had.

The price for what you get is extremely reasonable ($17) I would give it another chance but no coleslaw or avocado and I would eat it there. The people who own this shop are wonderful and kind.
