    Buffalo Wings
    Sunny S.

    Stopped by here on driving home from Roadies. We got it to go which is about a 20-25 minute drive. It took a bit waiting in the drive thru for our food but to me that just means they fried it fresh. Overall the flavoring of everything was good. My husband noted the teriyaki chicken wings were drowned in sauce and was too much for him but I enjoyed them. The el picante is actually spicy. It's a slow burn, you don't get hit with how spicy it is until a few moments after you take a bite or bites. There were many other things on the menu we wanted to try but did not want to over fill on food. We will be back. I would recommend this place.

    So slow...but worth it since it's always made fresh. Everytime I eat here the food is hot and delish...but don't forget to ask for ketchup..they always forget. The fries are really good too! Also- the prices are very reasonable especially compared to fast food chains.

    The hub and I had mixed viewpoints. He likes tenders and I like bone-in wings, so that's what I ordered, plus fries. They are pegged as jumbo tenders and wings, so I anticipated a crunchy outside and flavorful, moist interior. I know my hub, so although the dry rubs and sauces for wings are available for the tenders as well, I ordered the tenders naked. I tried the garlic Parmesan sauce on half the wings and the truffle garlic rub on others. Both were tasty. I do prefer my wings not breaded; usually boneless wings are breaded and bone-in are not. These were breaded, but they were juicy and crispy. These hub wasn't fond of the tenders. He said they were too thick, too big, and too chewy: more like a piece of chicken than tenders. I took a bite and didn't find them chewy, but I understood what he meant about them being too big for tenders. He really liked the fries, though, flavor and texture. I had a problem with the Tuxon Chix website, trying all afternoon to place an order to pick up at 5:30, but when I attempted to add the tenders, I kept getting a "try again" command. I finally gave up and did a bit of detective work to find a phone number, as I couldn't find it on the ordering site. A very nice man answered the phone, took my order, and said he would notify the IT people of the problem. My order was ready at 5:30 as promised. Four huge tenders, six wings, and fries came to $29 and change. There is plenty of food left over.

    Consistent week in and week out. I've made it through 7 sauces, the latest was Buffalo and it was really nice! Light breading as requested and the chicken is always just perfectly fried and juicy. I'm gonna bring my own carbless bun and try a sandwich next! Staff is always friendly & accommodating.

    I recently visited Tucson Chix and had a mixed experience. The flavors are definitely there, and you can tell they put effort into seasoning their food. However, my chicken sandwich was disappointing. On the first bite, the outside was crispy and hot, which was promising, but the inside of the chicken was cold and released cold liquid into my mouth, which completely caught me off guard and took away from the experience. The spice profile was also a bit unusual for my taste. Rather than tasting like traditional spices or heat, it had more of an artificial or chemical-like spicy flavor that was difficult to describe. That said, the staff was the highlight of the visit. They were attentive, friendly, and provided excellent customer service throughout my time there. The team was welcoming and did a great job making customers feel appreciated. The location itself could use some attention as well. The bathroom door did not close properly, which was concerning from a privacy standpoint. Overall, there is potential here because the flavors and customer service are strong, but improvements in food consistency and facility maintenance would make a big difference.

    This place was so good! We have already been back a few times, the vibe inside is really nice and going through the drive thru does not compromise the freshness of the food! The chicken is also halal which is awesome! Warning: they do know how to bring on the spice! So proceed with caution if it's not really your thing, but if it is you will thoroughly enjoy many of the hot options! The boneless chicken wings were more like giant chicken meatballs but I'm not complaining! I definitely recommend one of the sandwiches! Great spot!

    I learned about Tuxon Chix through Riana R.'s review (see below) which randomly popped up on my Facebook. Honestly, her picture looked so nice & the Caesar Salad Crispy Chicken Wrap looked so delicious, I knew I had to try it! It did not disappoint. The service was good & the dining room was nice & clean. My friend had the buffalo chicken sandwich and she also said it was really good. The portions are a great size and the fries were bomb! I did use the restroom while I was there and felt it needed a little bit a work (not dirty but needed soap and there was a bit of a sewer smell) but nothing terrible! Would recommend to friends and family if they are in the area!

    I ordered dinner to go on the website. It was easy. They sent a text to pick it up. I got the Chicken Tikka Masala tenders with French fries and a Mac and cheese. The chicken was tender and juicy. The smell of the spices was intoxicating. I really enjoyed the chicken and will be back to try the Tikka Masala Mac and cheese. Even the sweet tea was good.

    So great
    Karlee A.

    Really good! I wanted chic fil a on a Sunday so I ended up here and glad I did! the cheese curds are one of the best fast food items I've ever eaten but also one of the pricier items on their menu. The Cesar wrap was pretty good and the price on that was more affordable than the competition. Would definitely come back to try the wing flavors and more curds.

    I stopped by Tuxon Chix on my way home from work and went through the drive-thru. When I pulled up to pay, the man at the window told me I was the "lucky customer of the day" and that my meal was completely free! I asked if he was joking, but he assured me that he was completely serious with the biggest smile on his face He shared with me that he is the owner and today is his birthday. To celebrate, he decided to give away a free meal to the next person who came through the drive-thru, and it happened to be me. His kindness genuinely brought tears to my eyes just seeing how happy he was to give away a meal for free, all while working at his own restaurant on his birthday. I have been here many times before and the food is always fresh and delicious. The service provided has always been so welcoming and kind. I don't ever post anything on here, but I thought I could simply share my gratitude for the great experience I had today with a local business owner and try to bring him even more customers for his birthday! I'm sure would make his day :)

    My nephew has an upcoming birthday and is a tenders/wings fan so when googling 'best chicken tenders in Tucson' this place was in the top 3. We tried it for the first time and everyone was super happy with their order. The Tuxson was very tasty! Prices solid and Friendly service!

    Man let me tell you. First, this is on university's main drag and it's and first food second. So…read morethe crowd is very bar heavy. Western themed but I would say it's a country bar. Service was great! The food however was lacking. Sub par bar food. Coca-cola wings have no seasoning. Burger is blah. But perhaps the most offensive this was the chili. I got wedges so he were good and well season with chili. The chili had corn in it. I like corn. It doesn't belong in chili. Otherwise it was good chili. If you want to bring some sweetness to the chili give a side of cornbread. Not corn kernels. Come here for drinks and to watch the games. Eat the food to soak up the alcohol.

    Visiting from San Diego and was looking for something other than fast food. Typically, I don't use…read moreGoogle for food options but that's where I found The Saddle. It's right next to the University of Arizona on university and I loved it so much, I came back three nights in a row. Call me a creature of habit, but when you're out of town and you find something excellent, it's worth going back. It definitely has more of a bar vibe than it does a restaurant, but the food I ordered was incredible. If you're hungry, don't look at my pictures. Lol. With that area of town being so crowded, I thought parking was going to be an issue, but I found a spot right near the front of the restaurant every time. I walked right in, ordered at the bar, and was in and out in less than 12 minutes every time. On top of it all, I had the same person helping me from behind the bar each time and she was incredible. Friendly, accommodating, and if I was the manager, she'd be getting a raise. Ask for Alyssa and you won't be disappointed. Needless to say, anytime I am in Tucson, Arizona, I no longer have to search for a restaurant that I like. I'll definitely be back. PS - When they saw me come in for the third night in a row, the chef blessed me with a free slice of raspberry pie. That's quality customer service right there. Love this place.
