    Side order of fries $3 not worth it.
    Becky W.

    Disappointed is how I will start. Eating out is expensive and driving anyone for work or fun is costing all of us way more now in many years. I placed an order for dinner for my husband and me. Dining in at Zinburger is not my husband's favorite because the acoustics are terrible. But we enjoy their food. I arrive at the time my order said it will be ready. I park in the posted area for pickup and curbside. I call the number posted. A employee answers and said my order was ready and they would be out in a few minutes. She asked if I was parked in the curbside area. I said yes. 15 minutes later no one. I notice a bag stapled inside. It is 4:30-4:45pm on a Wednesday. Not busy at all. I walk in, look at the bag and it is my order. No one greets me or asks anything about me taking my bag off the counter. We won't be back. The food was cold and the fries for a side order was terrible in size and flavor. Completely disappointed!

    Can't go wrong with Zin Burger. They offer a nice patio, bar or dining room seating option. Their wines come in various ounces: 6,9 or the bottle. The Rosé is very refreshing on hot Tucson days. You can split an order of sweet potato fries. I build my own burger with onions, bacon, cheddar and a fried egg. And then I take half home. Very nice ambience for a date night or bday celebration.

    Right now we have perfect weather for dining outdoors in the beautiful patio of this restaurant. They even have sprinklers for your comfort. I ordered their Hit Guac Bottom burger which would have been spectacular if it wasn't lukewarm. The side fries were delicious and perfectly seasoned. I decided to have it with strawberry banana shake and even though they don't have it on the menu they made one for me. Over all the service was very good I just wish the food was served hotter.

    Sam burger!!! The beat burger I've ever had!

    Absolutely incredible!!! The burgers are on another level. Get the Sam Burger, double smash patti. Get the truffle fries. Also, the service is 10/10. The team here knows how to provide friendly, welcoming, and excellent customer service. If you are looking for a great date spot, then this is it. Happy hour is so good! And don't forget to leave space for the Banana Cream Pie!! I'm from CA, and I wish Zinburger was in my state. My first time here and I will come back over and over again. I even ordered one to go after my dinner.

    Had an amazing time here tonight. Jacob did a great job taking care of us on the patio. This was my first time here in a while and they had an updated menu. Loved all the fun options!

    We were a big group of 14 every thing was delicious and TENI made the experience extraordinary. We usually dine her often and its first time she takes care of us

    Nice, casual place for dinner! I decided to try the Asian chicken salad, which was very fresh and tasty. Also ordered a side of sweet potato fries which were ok but not amazing. The cherry blossom dirty soda was more tart than I expected but still very good.

    Tonight, I ordered the exact same as last time...Med Chicken Bowl. This time it looked as though the bag had been dropped, as food was sloshed about in the container...not very appetizing. All of the chicken was at one end and the tahini was smeared around on the sides of the container, which not only looked icky but also means there was less on the food. Perhaps it wasn't dropped but something happened to it. All in all, there was no feeling of care associated with the meal. Also, the chicken was cold and kind of gross, though I picked up in a timely manner (20 minutes after ordering). Top guess on the chicken is that it was previously cooked, and at lower heat so there was no sear whatsoever. And then it was lightly microwaved to kinda heat it up for my dish. It was fairly gross, though I did eat it. I looked at the menu just now (to refresh my memory)...I do not recall any chickpeas or red pepper in my meal. All I recall is chicken, rice, tahini, cucumbers, onion, tomatoes. Maybe that's why the container looked somewhat empty. I had asked to hold the feta...maybe that triggered a cascade of omitting other items. It was fairly disappointing and it's kind of weird that the exact same meal not even two weeks apart can be so different. First time it was great, second time I'm not sure if I'd eat that meal again, even if it were free. Tonight: kinda gross, actually. Oh, well, it was a good streak! PS To whoever reads these on behalf of Zburger...here's what time today I ordered (see pic). In case you want to ask about regarding what happened.

    I love Zinburger for happy hour. They have the best HH menu in Tucson IMO! They have specials on drinks, apps, meals, and desserts. I usually get the drat beer and smash burger happier meal and banana cream pie. But this time I tried their seasonal shake. The service, atmosphere, and food were all great. Cheers!

    Buffalo Chicken
    Henry V.

    Zinburger is now on my list of burger spots in Tucson. I had ordered the Zucchini fries, Buffalo Chicken Burger, and the El Diablo Burger on this visit. The dish that stood out was the Zucchini fries, it was crispy yet melted in your mouth with each bite. It was topped with grated Parmesan that paired with the fries perfectly. The Buffalo chicken was delicious, the chicken was a good size that offered a slight crispy crust, while the meat was very juicy. The El Diablo is great as well. The fire-roasted jalapenos gave the burger a slight hint of heat, but mild enough for those who can't handle a spicy meal. The service was good, and we got greeted and seated quickly. The ambiance is very relaxed with many windows to allow the natural light in. I would like to visit this location again in the evening or when a game is one to see how the vibes are then.

    The burgers are great, but the banana cream pie... to die for! My friend and I stopped by for drinks and desert and it was perfect. PS: the slice is large enough we could have shared it, but it was a Saturday afternoon and a cheat day!

    Loaded Cheesy Fries
    Ashley C.

    Went here for date night on Halloween. It was pretty quiet, with maybe five different parties eating, including ours. We ordered two appetizers, the cheesy fries and the Italian meatballs. Both came out with our entrées for some reason. The meatballs weren't bad. There were four along with some soft brioche like bread that was great for dipping in the sauce. $14 for that did seem a bit much for it though. The cheesy fries ($10) were a good portion for two people. I originally felt they could've had more cheese, but they came with a cheese sauce to dip them in, so all good. Both of the burgers ($14.95 &$15.75) were pretty yummy. It was a good meal, but altogether with tip, also a $70 meal. I won't say it's not worth the prciness but just know if you're going to visit it's a little bit pricey for a burger spot.

    Samburger Burger with egg
    Gene T.

    An update: for the longest time this was my favorite burger in town! The last few visits I have found the meat patty lacks seasoning and while the toppings are usually good the patty stills needs flavor. Without the seasoning and/or char, it leaves a fatty taste in the mouth and is awful. I will try this again and hope there is a change, but it will be awhile. I am very sad. For many years I have brought people here and suggested this place. That is on hold. I am no longer recommending it for now.

We arrived on the earlier side and by about 7 PM the place was buzzing clearly a local favorite. We thought we were just going to start with a few appetizers... but we happily got carried away! The appetizers were so good that we ended up skipping the dinner menu entirely because we were already full and totally satisfied. Here's what we tried (and loved): * Nom Noms (risotto bites) -- Absolutely delicious, perfectly crispy and flavorful. * Sausage Board -- The pork belly sausage was incredible, and the pretzel buns with the cheese dip were chef's kiss. The pickled beets added the perfect touch. * Fried Calamari -- Light, crispy, and not oily at all. * Brussels Sprouts (Spicy Bang Bang) -- These were the star of the night. The sauce, the crispness, the flavor perfection. For drinks, we ordered a classic Old Fashioned (executed perfectly) and their signature Eternal Summer cocktail, which was bright, refreshing, and so good even though I got distracted by the food and didn't finish it! And honestly, the experience was made even better by the staff. Our host and server were both so friendly, warm, and genuinely helpful with their recommendations. They made us feel taken care of without hovering just great service all around. We will definitely be coming back. Everything from the atmosphere to the food to the service was memorable. Highly recommend!

Love the wall of chianti bottles that lead to the bar and love that the staff dress up in casual Prohibition garb. Came here for girl's night and it was everyone's first time even at the restaurant but mine. I'd had dinner a couple times in the restaurant for my birthday and had the cheese wheel fettuccine alfredo. I asked if anyone was interested in trying it and so 3 of us split it which ended up being pretty perfect. It is hands down THE BEST fettuccine alfredo. We had many drinks come to our table, the first round being the homemade limoncello. Made with local Meyer lemons, it is deliciously potent. A must try. The bartender, Ryan or Brian, he made cocktails from the heart. A couple of gals ordered "dealer's choice" drinks and they were inspired by the drinker's stories. It was really a unique experience for them and I could almost see his mind working out the chemistry of the libations. Another must try, although I didn't because I had to drive myself home. I did have a coffee with Bailey's, Amaretto, and freshly-made whipped cream. Last must try if not on a coffee drink maybe on a dessert. One person in our party thought that the drinks were on the spendy side. Many of the ingredients were house made and all top shelf. I'm from Los Angeles so an $18 drink was a normal night at the klerb. Worth mentioning if that would be a deal breaker. Worth a go. I thought it was better than the speakeasy at the Sonoran House which was too bright and not intimate. You really like feel more like you're not where you're supposed to be at The Still. There is a curio cabinet with cigars that I think are for sale. The speakeasy opens up to the patio for all the smoke suckers. Great for a small groups or date night, maybe not the first date.

We were a lively group of seven, and after our meeting we even celebrated my birthday. From the moment we walked in, I was impressed. The restaurant is bright, inviting, spacious, and has a warm, modern atmosphere that immediately makes you feel comfortable. The food was outstanding! Our table enjoyed a delicious variety of favorites, including Elote Nachos, Shrimp Ceviche, Mac & Cheese with Chicken, and several Happy Hour entrées. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. And if you visit, do yourself a favor--order the Margarita with Tajín (that perfect blend of mild chile, lime, and salt).

Manager Edmont and our server Olivia treated us like old friends from the moment we arrived. They were attentive, fun, and genuinely made us feel welcome. The highlight?

To top off a wonderful evening, we shared a warm Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding complete with a birthday candle--a sweet ending to a fantastic celebration. Redbird isn't just serving great food; they're creating memorable experiences.

The first thing I need to own is that it's a shame I hadn't visited here before. We arrived at 5:30p and both the bar and patio areas were packed - standing room only, and no wonder. They have one of the better happy hours (daily! 3:00 - 6:30p) - able to accommodate both the slacker and the over-timer Lol. Basic drinks are all discounted such as house wines, well drinks, and beers. Their bottled wines and craft cocktails are all exempt though. Many of their appetizers are also discounted and some quite substantially. We grabbed a glass of the house cabernet ($6, normally $8) and the grilled shrimp wrapped in jalapeno bacon ($13, normally $20). NOTE: happy hour pricing is Only available if you order/consume at the bar or on the patio and that's clear in advance, and understandable. The dining areas were only half full at this early point (but filled up by 6:30) and the host kindly encouraged us to enjoy our starters at the bar as she would hold our table. We were then sat near the "back" of this long venue and frankly, aside from the lone windowed table at the very front, this would be my preferred seating - cozy, intimate, with only five other tables around us. For dinner drinks she got an Italian Nebbiolo Bricco Magno Red Blend ($13/glass, reliably terrific/mellow) and I got the Chupacabra ($15) Mezcal/prickly pear cocktail, strong and excellent as well. We got an additional appetizer: the roasted bone marrow ($19). I had never had marrow before but she raved about how good this can be if done properly (bonus, it is super healthy). Folks, a picture/worth a 1000... suffice to say this was simply outstanding! We both had long work weeks and were craving meat - just a damn good steak. Our waiter, without blinking recommended the 8oz bison filet mignon ($65) as his absolute menu fav, and then the day's special: 14oz ribeye ($50). We ordered each. All dinners come with two sides and we each got the day's special: roasted half artichoke and she got the loaded baked potato while I got the mashed potatoes. Food arrived about 15 minutes later at good temperature (warm/rested with a strong char) with each being accurately grilled (medium and medium-rare). Taste was outstanding. Neither one of us had bison filet before and marveled how it (subtly) added a "wild" edge to an always outstanding, lean-but-tender, cut of beef. The loaded baked was terrific, however, the mashed was the only disappointment... a plainer mash one could not make themselves - pure white and borderline dry, no milk, butter, egg, gravy(?), nothing to make it creamy or add any flavor dimension - a surprise frankly. The only other "critique" is that the dessert menu could add some kind of dark/chocolate concoction. All in all, though, we loved our experience and have decided to add this to our periodic special dinners rotation! Staff was outstanding - just the proper balance of attentive and quiet - and waters never went below half empty. Parking is free and plentiful, especially behind the restaurant (and yes, if you continue on around the back there is another long entrance/exit driveway that comes out the other side of Jimmy John's and Noodleholics.

I understand the head chef has a French influence, but frankly it overwhelms the food and takes away from the freshness. I had the snapper since they didn't have the halibut. It seemed over cooked and then drenched in sauce with greens on top, also drenched in sauce. The saddest part was they sat us in the back room. Where they seemed to sit everyone coming into the restaurant. If the restaurant was packed I would understand but every other room was empty. Who wants to sit along the pathway to the bathroom? Service was so/so. Had to ask for drinks multiple times. But frankly the quality of the food was not worth the cost. Definitely will not be returning, until they revamp the menu to include less French style and more uniquely inspired fresh food. I mean if we wanted French we would have gone to Le Rendezvous or Wild Garlic which are top notch.

    Tito & Pep is one of the best restaurants in Tucson. I had the pork chop, my son had the trout, my…read morehusband the salmon, and my brother the duck. We had the calamari to start. Everything was fantastic. The meat was tender and cooked perfectly. I highly recommend!

    Since coming to Tucson 4 years ago, Tito & Pep has been on my list and after finally trying it, it…read moredid not disappoint! We made a reservation well in advance and even then there were limited time options. The atmosphere of the restaurant is slightly upscale while still being cozy. I love all the plants! Our server was very knowledgeable and was able to give several recommendations. We ordered the grilled and chilled beets and the steak skewers for appetizers. The beets and everything that came with them was very fresh! I love anything with pickled onions. The steak appetizer was excellent and my dad could not stop talking about them. Next, I ordered the swordfish special and my dad got the pork chop. Everything was cooked to perfection and flavor was everywhere! For dessert we split the dark chocolate ganache. The ganache was very rich but paired wonderfully with the whipped cream and other flavors. I don't drink, but my dad also loved the cocktails he ordered! If Tito & Pep has been on your list do not hesitate any longer. I very much regret not coming here sooner and I highly recommend giving it a try!

My hubs suggested that we go to The Frida and see if we could get in. We drive over and guess what, we go lucky, must have been that everyone had a 4th of July hangover. We sat at the bar and couldn't be happier. Our server/bartender took great care of us, he offered us drinks, took our food order and made my hubby a really good Margarita, The Frida Margarita, he said it was bomb! I ordered a beer and it came with a chilled glass and lime wedge. We decided on the flautas and the mole enchiladas. Both fantastic, tasty and hearty! I got full with two enchiladas so I donated the third to my hubby, which he was super happy to eat. I have to say, the mole sauce was decadent and full of flavors. It really reminded me of my grandmas mole. It also left a delicious numbing (very slight) on my lips. Perfect balance of nutty, spicy, almost semi sweet goodness. Gorgeously prepared and looked almost too good to eat. Almost..... The place was full, we were still able to have a conversation. It was amazing. Will definitely be back to continue to enjoy the carefully curated menu. Everyone seemed happy and relaxed! This screams a great place to work and obviously enjoy. Well done La Frida! Well done!
