Fancy steakhouse. Salads were big enough to share as starter. Was not a fan of minced Brussels spouts, and too much sugar on candied nuts over sweet potatoes. read more

My steak was cold, the hour wait to get it (after riding on line) and the attitude of the front staff stinks. Only good thing was the half dressed girls that showed up.. wow! read more

Our server, Josh, always taken excellent care of us. Even if he is not our waiter, he always comes and checks on us. He is very knowledgeable and helpful. HIs pleasant and courteous service is always a highlight of our visits to Sullivans. He is energetic and personable, a valuable asset to the Sullivan's staff. M and D Johnson 12/21/2024 read more

Visited Sullivans to celebrate a birthday. The steak was cooked perfectly to what it was ordered to for each person, which was absolutely amazing as this doesn't often happen other places. It was very tender and tasted good. The sides were a good amount, we ended up with three different types. The asparagus, potatoes and creamed spinach. The creamed spinach was definitely a hit. We enjoyed a light cheesecake and it was all so nice. Definitely recommend for events or just to try. read more

Personality of Server was great (Josh) . however it didn't mask that he forgot about our appetizers (we had to remind him prior to our food about to come out), and that he also forgot about our side dishes that went with the steak- that we just ultimately cancelled.. 2 of the steaks had to go back to be properly cooked to how they were ordered (medium well).. ambiance was good..... will go to Flemming's next time for our next special occasion dinner- this one was for U of A Graduation.. read more

This review is for the bar only. This used to be my every Wednesday spot ten years ago. Therefore, coming back to town for a visit, it only made sense to stop by my old stomping grounds. I was in town for a reunion so we stopped by. It was just like old times! I had a delicious espresso martini. Service was good. They have bar food, which is awesome and a good price, but we had already eaten. The restaurant menu is amazing if you want a great steak. In the past, I've enjoyed ladies night here with a free cigar and $5 drinks. From what I remember, the $5 drinks include a cosmo, a margatini and a classic martini. They have jazz music in the bar as well, but I am not sure which days. It wasn't as busy as I thought it would be. Maybe it's not such a hot spot anymore? Nice patio seating and good amount of parking. Bathrooms are clean. read more

I am obsessed with their lobster bisque. We had Bruce as our waiter and he is fabulous. He was very patient and professional with us. I'm sad we forgot to take a photo of our food. But we had the "sure thing" because I don't like to make too many decisions after a long day at work. So it was nice to choose a meal that had an appetizer, steak and dessert all in one. Their tea I think is filtered because my husband had 6 or 7 cups. This place is a gem and we will definitely come back. The lights turned dim at 5:30pm and the ambiance was really nice. I was on a kid free date with my husband so it was perfect. read more

Dinner Saturday night. My husband had a wedge salad, which he said was delicious. I had the corn bisque- also delicious. He had an 8oz New York Steak and I had a piece of salmon. Again, very nice. We ordered the preset full meal- salad of soup, main course, desert- advertised $49 each online. The steak price increased when my husband ordered an 8oz steak. He wasn't told that was a different price. Prices for individual items not on the preset had increased by $10 or so from the online menu. Just a little disappointing to see a bait and switch. read more

Food was spectacular. Service was unparalleled... thank you, Tristan!! Ambiance was awesome. Matt, you have a terrific restaurant there and Tristan is an asset. read more

Great service, friendly atmosphere, delicious food! My steak was a tad bit overdone, but the manager more than made up for it by not charging me for that meal and giving me an entire new one to take home that was made to perfection! I'll definitely be going there again! read more

What? Horrible. I used to like this place. I used to be able to count on some sort of consistency. Service was good. Oysters Rockefeller were good. Sauce a bit runny but good.could not taste the oyster. I think there was one. Mushrooms were horrible. One bite and I could not eat them. A weird rancid flavor. The person I was with got a stomach ache from them an has been quite sick. Ordered steak medium rare. Came out blue to rare. Sent it back. They cooked it and it came back rare. The other piece was medium rare except part of the top 1/4 inch was well done and the rest medium rare. Not sure about the health code and if they are even allowed to take food back into kitchen to recook. If I recall, that is not allowed. But not sure anymore. Spinach was ok. Potato, baked was excellent. The cocktails were ok. Meat cut was a good quality. Too bad it was ruined. The béarnaise sauce was weird. An interesting adaptation but not edible. Not coming back. There are better places in town now. read more

For our anniversary, we decided to make a reservation and try out Sullivan's for the 1st time. We were not disappointed! The place exudes class, creating the perfect ambiance for our occasion. Everything was clean and immaculate. Things only got better with the food and the service. We were seated immediately, and to our surprise, were brought to a booth already decorated with rose pedals and a congratulations card. Amber, our server, was there in a heartbeat with our menus and offered a short history of the restaurant(which I secretly love knowing about). Been in Tucson for decades, never knowing that this steakhouse staple was named after an old boxer. An added bonus are the old timey photos of Jack Dempsey and others. The cheesesteak eggerolls and beef wellington bites were incredible appetizers! I had the French onion soup and my wife had the wedge salad, and both were phenomenal. For the main course, I ordered the filet mignon(med rare), with the garlic mashed potatoes. Amber watched me cut into the steak, which looked great at first glance. Unfortunately, it was a little overdone on the outside. Mind you, I said nothing of this, and began to enjoy the steak, as I am not one to complain about something so slight. But to Sullivans Steakhouse, perfection must be everything. Amber must have noticed, and before I knew it, Jenna showed up at our table. She introduced herself as a manager, and asked how I was enjoying my steak. I told her it was great, but she could tell that it had been slightly overcooked on the outside, and wasnt having it. She proceeded to compensate us, saying that the steak was on the house, and even offered to bring out a second steak, which was generous, but I declined. She came back to our table after we ordered some desert to go, and had a great conversation. When the bill came, it turned out that not only did she comp the steak, but our deserts as well. On top of that, after hearing that my wife and I are parents of four, she came back to our table with 4 new york style cheesecakes for the kids. With 4 children, my wife and i dont get out often, but this, by far, was one of the best dining experiences we've had in a very long time, and we have Amber and Jenna to thank for it! I'd give Sullivan's 6 out of 5 stars if it were possible. I will be very vocal about this experience with my coworkers and friends, and will definitely be coming back. Just have to find time away from the kids again read more

Ambiance and service is pretty much all they have going for them. Our server Luis, was very attentive and when they severely overcooked my steak they sent the manager to inquire. The NY strip tasted like a chuck steak and was on par with a Denny's steak without the side of pancakes. The mashed potatoes were just mashed potatoes. The Ribeye was good but not exceptional. Home cooked medium Ribeye would be just as good. The alcoholic drinks were by far the best part of the night. We had the Dirty Bird, Coconut Tiki and a couple others. They were tasty and strong. It seems Sullivan's is getting by more on their reputation than quality. The other picture is of the trim in the restroom. A quality establishment would have the nails embedded in the wood and the holes filled with wood filler and painted over. Sometimes, it's the little things. read more

Crab stuffed shrimp tasted like warmed up leftovers. Shrimp was like chewing rubber. Crab meat was tasteless. Same for crab fried rice, no taste at all. Sadly, my wife's birthday dinner was definitely not what we expected at Sullivans. Probably won't be celebrating special occasions here anymore! The prices are what I expect for fine dining.....not leftover warmed up food. read more

As a vegetarian, I love coming here. I get their iceberg, lettuce, wedge. And their side dishes. I order brussels sprouts, fresh, asparagus, cream style, spinach, and their wild mushrooms. Sometimes I get there three cheese Mac are there garlic, roasted potatoes. read more

I recently went here with a friend for happy hour. The cocktails were so good and the bar bites both yummy and reasonable.

DO NOT GO HERE! This place used to be amazing. However, there is a very clear problem with the "management" -- or lack thereof. With available staff not receiving any direction, what seemed like every customer complaining (so much so that the entire dining room was poking fun at the chaotic situation) and no leadership to be seen, the situation was almost laughable. "Almost" because this is supposedly a high-end prime steakhouse and they certainly charge the prices of a high-end spot. They were obviously over-booked and I can understand that these things sometimes happen in the restaurant world. There was no leadership addressing the situation, however. This caused chaos among this waiting in the bar area, entry way, hallway, bathroom area and patio. There was clearly a fire code violation. We waited over an hour and a half to be seated AFTER we arrived 15 minutes early for our reservation. Then we waited another hour and a half for food. This is not hyperbole; it actually happened. When we finally received our food (after my companion and I conceded to each other that the rest of our evening plans were ruined), her food arrived cold and my medium-rare porterhouse was egregiously overcooked. We left hungry (after spending the better part of four hours at this restaurant). We stopped by McDonald's on the drive home and while the food there wasn't great, we experienced competent and friendly staff. I have little doubt that the management of that particular McDonald's would have provided a better experience had they been the people running Sullivan's on this particular evening. This is pretty sad for a restaurant that was once considered elite. read more

Great food and very attentive servers! The bar had a local musician performing that did exceptionally well! Great atmosphere!

We were a party of 10 for a 930pm reservation. The staff was nice and accommodating. We went for a high school graduation dinner and they decorated the table to celebrate including a signed hand written card, that was surprise. Our food came out quickly. My rib eye steak was cooked to order and the garlic potatoes and sauce was good. Everyone in our party was happy with their meal and the service. read more

Contrary to other reviews, our service was amazing. Our waiter Luis was thoughtful and gracious, and attended to our every need. The manager Jen was accommodating with the issues with our food and basically comped our entire meal. That being said, the main meal was horrible. My wife had the crab stuffed shrimp. The shrimp was horribly over-cooked and basically inedible. I had the scallops which were grainy. my wife then ordered the brick chicken as a substitute. It was so incredibly dry. We couldn't even swallow one bite. We had ordered the lobster mac & cheese as well. The lobster literally tasted like tar, but the noodles tasted ok. We came here for our 8th wedding anniversary and we were disappointed They comped a good portion of our meal. But we will most likely never return. read more

Get yourself a good drink at the bar... order their deal for under 50 bucks for a steak side and desert. The service is amazing. The vibe is like old jazzy classy so cute early 2000s Paris ... it's so cute. Perfect for a date. read more

We had a reservation. When we arrived they told us the wait could be an hour even though I made the reservation 2 weeks ago. Then we heard someone complaining as they were leaving, saying that they were at their table for two hours, and had not received their food! So we walked out. It's unconscionable that they overbook and don't honor reservations. Terrible managaement. read more

Food Quality: 2.25/5 We got the Price Fixe. The lobster bisque (0.5/5) was a worse tomato soup- both tasted completely different. Mine tasted vaguely of applesauce and precooked lobster, and the second was mostly pepper. As for the steaks, We got a ribeye and the New York strip. The New York (1/5) was burnt entirely on the outside. The ribeye was a great quality meat cooked meh (2.5/5), there are much better steakhouses in Tucson. As for dessert we got the banana fosters (3.75/5) and the New York cheese cake (4.5/5). Both tasted exactly as expected, which was good. We also got the Cheesesteak eggroll, which was alright (3.75/5). However, the bread (4.25/5) was great. Service: 0/5 The servers were great and this score should not reflect on them. However, waiting an hour after your reservation to be seated is ridiculous. We Called before 7, arrived at 8:15, was seated at 9:05 , got appetizers and drink at 9:10, and finally at 10:20 we received our steaks. Dessert was served 10 minutes after Price per Quality: 0/5. 150 dollars for active disappointment. Other: 2/5 The ambiance is okay. Live music was too loud (at least the main microphone was) in the bar area and almost inaudible in the main dining area. Half of the decorum was from target/walmart. Also, there was obvious water damage, and parts of the roof were missing. Overall: 1.3/5 read more

Unfortunately this review doesn't concern the food because I never got the opportunity to eat. I had a reservation for four people at 8:30pm. We arrived at 8:20, I was told there was at least a 30 min wait. We saw people leaving, after waiting for over 20 min, people walked out and stated their reservation was at 7:15 pm (it was 8:45) and they were told they had at least another 30 min wait. I went to the receptionist, who stated there was at least ten parties ahead of us that needed to be seated (which would mean we would be waiting more than 30 min as stated when we arrived. We made the reservation believing we would be able to have a great meal. Being that this would have been our first time at the restaurant, we were really disappointed. We waited another 15 minutes and decided to leave. read more

What a mixed experience this was. The restaurant is absolutely lovely and extremely comfortable. We arrived on time for our 5:30 reservation, and were seated promptly. The manager was very kind and thoughtful, bringing our 4 year old colouring gear. The food was wonderful. Steaks were cooked just right, and delicious sides of creamed spinach and potatoes au gratin. The challenge was the service. Our server was marginal at best, and the food took much longer than it should have. Before we even got water, we specially ordered food (chicken fingers and fries) for our small child so as to keep her cared for so that we could enjoy our family time at a nice dinner. An hour later, I had to track down the manager to as why it had not been delivered yet. Our water glasses ran dry and were not refilled. French onion soup was ordered and delivered without a spoon. By the time we got a spoon the soup was cold. "OUCH" I really want to recommend this restaurant based on how good the food was. But, after spending over $400 for a dinner for four adults and one child, and experiencing inattentive service as we did I am reticent to do so. Will probably try again. But, it will be a while. read more

Went for happy hour and food was awesome but service was not friendly. Totally was ignored and wasn't busy

The service and ambiance was absolutely amazing. We had great appetizers and salad. When it came for the entree we were very excited and had high hopes. I ordered my steak medium well with very little pink. When it came the first few bites were very good. as i got closer to the middle I realized my steak was severely undercooked. I'd already bitten in so I didn't want to send it back. Sullivan's is good if you like your steak rare. read more

Bad waitress. Super slow and had to ask for everything. And forgot our au gratin potatoes.

We celebrated our wedding anniversary at Sullivan's Steakhouse. Joshua was our server tonight, and he is one of the most exceptional server that we had this past year. When he described the wine and the selections, it is like watching poetry in motion. He is charismatic and his goal is to have his guests the finest dining experience. Thank you Joshua for your excellent service for taking care of us tonight. read more

Very slow service. It took over two hours to complete our meal. Food was average. Meat had no flavor and was chewy. Garlic mashed potatoes were just dry mashed potatoes with skins. Used dishes not picked up promptly. No attention to details. Not worth the money spent! read more

Steak was very good, the rest of the main meal was unremarkable , just ok. The key lime pie was the worst I have ever been served. It was so bad I couldn't eat more than two bites. But what was the worst was how sick I got that night and the next day. Sullivans has gotten some bad health department reports which I didn't know when we planned our celebration dinner. Too bad these reports aren't printed in the newspaper anymore. I do not recommend you eat there. read more

The food was overpriced for what the menu had to offer. The baked potato was overcooked so there was almost no potato inside skin. My meat had too much salt and pepper on it. Overall a great disappointment!! read more

While the food was absolutely fantastic, from the Shrimp appetizer to the Lobster Bisque or French onion to the rack of lamb or NY strip, but the best thing of all was our server - Stephanie N. - as she made the joyous occasion of a valentines day even better with her smile and fast service -- Our #1 choice for steakhouses in Tucson !!

Five minutes after studying the menu, the maître d swung by and replaced our lunch menus with dinner menus, saying they weren't sufficiently stocked with lunch items. Looks like our sixty dollar lunch was going to weigh in at one hundred forty. We then received a bonus menu, where we could have last night's Valentine dinner for two hundred fifty. I was looking at the dinner menu when the wife said "I'm not planning to come back here." So I decided to not let go of a single, discontinued penny. We made our way towards the door when the waitress cut us off with good news: "I spoke with my manager, and we are able to support the lunch menu!" I wanted to provide a message for the manager, but I didn't want to melt the poor girl's ears off. Sadly, that message isn't fit for typing here either. Flemings is fun, Le Rendez-Vous is romantic, and we're country club members accustomed to paying a bit extra, but Sullivan's is plain snotty and overtly slimy. The icing on the cake was the only other customer, a women who also experienced the menu switcheroo. She had left her table and was waiting in the lobby for her lunch companion to arrive, so they could go somewhere, anywhere, else. Fortunately, we didn't even have to move the car - we just walked next door and enjoyed the item pictured below. read more

Had dinner there for the first time in a long time. The food and the service was exceptional. Luis was our waiter and was extremely attentive and proactive. I can't say enough great things about him. Everything from top to bottom was so good, and it was a great atmosphere in which to celebrate our special occasion. The new manager spoke to us and said they are really trying to improve the dining experience, and they have! Highly recommend giving them a try if you haven't been there in a while! read more

Worst experience of our life for a fine restaurant ! They ruined my fathers birthday! We waited an hour to get a table which we understood because we didn't make a reservation. We then sat for 2 hours... 2 hours and still did not get our food. We were highly disappointed with the wait. The waiter he was amazing and by no means responsible- if anything he deserves a raise for being the front man and approaching us! Never returning again!!! We left without eating and ended up going somewhere else where we got served and ate all within an hour! read more

Well let's say I gave an additional star for the nice atmosphere. A quiet place to relax and enjoy good conversation. The waitstaff was good and pleasant. I had the rib eye and my wife the "long bone" pork chop. Sides were a lettuce wedge and a baked potato. The wedge gets 5 stars on its own. The baked potato was not piping hot but warm. The pork chop was way over cooked ordered medium but came devoid of any pink. The chop was tasty but dry. My rib eye was ordered medium well but came double well. No seasoning was on the steak making it rather blah but editable. So it was a great evening and we enjoyed ourselves. But a 50$ steak should have been much more flavorful and cooked to perfection. It was more in the 25$ range. I found out that Sullivan's has recently been sold. All 14 stores. That might be the reason they have dropped in quality somewhat. read more
