    I've been to this bar a few times with a small group of friends. I've also been for some of their listening parties for Whitney Houston, Usher, etc. which are always fun. The servers are true winos and can guide you to the right glass. The owner is typically at the bar when I come and is a very pleasant guy. I like that they let you select what goes on your charcuterie board so you can experiment with flavors. They serve port wines too! My only complaint is that they don't serve wine flights. I recommend this spot as a pretty dinner meetup with a friend or two (it can be loud sometimes) or a date night.

    Cheers

    The wine selection here is always nothing short of impressive. After a long and hot 103 degree day yesterday, the Elk Cove Pinot Blanc was the perfect way to start off our evening. Revel is such a cool local find- where style and community converge. Everyone is approachable and knowledgable about all things wine. Make this your new summer hang!

    We were in town for a couple of days and looking for a quiet spot for a drink and discovered REVEL. located just off 4th street this cozy wine bar has an interesting selection of wines by the glass as well as a build your own charcuterie menu. I enjoyed a couple of glasses of a sparkling white burgundy and my wife savored the French Rhône. The charcuterie menu allows you to mix and match cheese, meat and other items and was very reasonably priced and was just what we needed food-wise. While service was a bit on the leisurely side of things, we were in no hurry and the three folks working seemed to be doing their best. A great little spot.

    Quite the selection of wine. Atmosphere is beautiful. Classic, small and quiet. Great spot for enjoying a book and wine or enjoying an evening with a friend. Take your pick. Music was played at a perfect level for conversation and savoring your wine. Not a large selection of food. You have a handful of options to make a charcuterie board. Everything I had chosen was delicious. Bread that was brought out had a great crust and soft in center. Wish there was some butter to top it.

    Tried a few glasses of wine while in Tucson. The service was pretty good. I was surprised to see we were the only people in their. It's a very nice set up with a long bar area and tables along the wall. They had a nice selection of red and white wines as well as port wine. I forgot to ask if they serve food. I didn't see it on the menu ? Finding parking wasn't easy but we look forward to trying this place again when we visit Tucson.

    Charcuterie spread! We tried almost everything!

    This place is adorable. Local art on the wall and fresh meats and cheeses. The wine selection rotates and is delicious.

    Absolutely love to Gabby our server she was so friendly and nice and made an excellent recommendation based on what I like. Accidentally found this place from a sandwich board. A quiet Place for the owner is hanging around and can answer any questions. Also plays excellent air guitar.

    I'm happy to have finally gotten a chance to visit Unicorn Zebra since it's been on my list from…read morethe time they opened. It's a fun and also elegant atmosphere with the zebra theme clearly exemplified across the space. I would have to say this is one of the coziest bars I've been to, the furniture and seating is really supportive of a long-term visit. There are other levels, lower and an upper level besides the main space, but be aware that if there are parties, they can typically take up different areas. Our bartender, Sarah was fantastic! The way that she handled all of the guests and the busy field was incredible, so calm and collected, and furthermore making some really incredible drinks. Heads up that the online drink menu is not the current drink menu, I couldn't remember all the names of our drinks and put those in the photo captions, so when I checked on the website, the menu was showing something different other than what I saw at the bar. Out of several places I've been to, I'd say the mixture of flavors and details in the drinks are quite unique. I'll be back for more one day

    One fateful night in Tucson, we stumbled upon the Unicorn Zebra. We had never heard of this place…read morebut were curious so we went in. We were greeted by a giant statue of a unicorn zebra and of course took a selfie. We then went to the bar area and absolutely loved the dark speakeasy vibes. Burk, the handsome man with a shiny head, was at the bar. He handed us a drink menu that contained fun drink names like Death of a Unicorn. The drinks tasted good and had a lovely presentation. Mine even came in a zebra mug. We also learned that this bar has both an upstairs and downstairs area. We enjoyed a couple of drinks and headed home. This place left such an impression that we have been back two times since. On another occasion we had Nate the bartender. He had a lovely personality and accommodated all of the guests that came in near closing. We enjoyed Santa's Banana Hammock and Unicorn Ski Accident. I would definitely recommend this hidden gem. I look forward to seeing where this place goes. It has a ton of potential for special events with the basement area. P.s. It's also a boutique hotel. You could always book a room and enjoy dreams downstairs without having to drive

It feels intimate, almost cinematic. You're not walking into a bright sports bar; you're stepping into a moody, low-lit cocktail lounge built for conversation and slow evenings. The space has character: exposed wood beams, a long bar lined with bottles, soft pools of light over booths, and a relaxed, unhurried energy. It feels tucked away, which adds to the appeal. And while the lighting sets the mood, the drinks are what make it worth staying. Well-crafted, balanced, and clearly made by bartenders who take pride in their work. Strong without being sloppy. Creative without trying too hard. If you appreciate a dim, intimate setting and serious cocktails, The Owl Club delivers. It's the kind of place you settle into -- and don't rush out of.

Perhaps a bad financial…read moredecision on my part ($150 per person!), but regardless, it was a night I'll (mostly) remember, haha. I've always been a foodie, and now that I live on my own, I've recently had the opportunity to teach myself how to cook. As somebody new to cooking, and somebody who loves food, I was delighted to find a restaurant that combines food and art into cuisine inspired by the chef's home. A concept too lovely to miss out on! And so, not heeding my better judgment, I decided to book a reservation for myself and my partner for an evening. Based on pure observation, the creativity taking place in that kitchen was worth the value alone. It could be my lack of experience, but so many techniques and flavors were incorporated into each dish that made it difficult for me to trace the methods used. Each morsel was filled with unique, local flavors that I feel very few people would ever have the opportunity to taste. Of course, these were extremely elevated dishes using local ingredients (such as elk, venison, and squash), but regardless, I believe the desert's beauty is often disregarded. Ursa took these unexplored local items and turned them into delicious culinary experiences. I definitely shouldn't have added on the alcohol tasting (additional $80 per person) with the 8-course meal, buuuut when else would I be eating at Ursa, y'know? Each pairing helped to bring out the hidden flavors of the dishes presented, perfectly curated to accompany Ursa's unique menu. There is a non-alcoholic pairing option, which I am curious about, as one of the pairings was a tea made with brittlebush. I was amazed at how concentrated the flavor was! It was so deep, slightly sweet, and paired perfectly with its partner. (I kind of wish my partner didn't finish his!) Was this experience worth it? I'll admit, I do have a little bit of buyers remorse, but I also understand the work involved with creating something like this as a service for others. The food felt very intimate (although pretentious), allowing the chef to speak without saying a word. The service was lovely and attentive. Each person on the staff communicated without me even noticing, and food and drinks found themselves on our table at just the right time. I was beyond impressed with the service, and each dish, that I feel I have to say it was certainly worth the value of the *experience.* If you are looking for a nice place to eat a meal, however, there are other places for that. That said, I probably can't revisit Ursa, haha.

    We really wanted to love Ursa. Service was excellent, super warm and attentive. The space, plating,…read moreand locally sourced concept are all really strong. The issue for us was the food. Most of the dishes were either over salted or just didn't come together flavor wise. Some ideas were interesting, but the execution wasn't there, especially for a tasting menu at this price point.

With better seasoning and a bit more balance, it could be really good, but based on this visit we probably wouldn't come back.

The staff also were kind enough to move one of our chairs out of the way so our dog had lots of room to lay down. Staff were all very kind and never seemed annoyed with the dog (you can always tell at a restaurant if they are, and they were very happy to accommodate him). Very dog friendly!! The food: We gotta talk about their French onion soup. It was pretty dang delicious! The broth itself is quite nice, a nice cheese portion, and the baguette was divine. I also had their French Connection sandwich (with a side of fries), and it had a great combo of ooey, gooey cheese, firm and flavorful ham, and served on a really delicious loaf. Really solid fries, too. We didn't end up getting any drinks but saw several people ordering yummy looking bites. If (but likely when) we come back to Tucson, I'm making a point to return to Cup Cafe!
