Re: “Sur Real”
Haven't tried the food but Penelope at the bar is quick with service and very friendly. Drinks were cheap, around 3 bux for our Smirnoffs I think. The girl DJ was smokin and had us dancing all night!!!
Re: “Ha Long Bay”
Arguably the best Vietnamese restaurant in Tucson. The flavors are spot on! The service is fast and freindly. Best of all, you don't have to put up with the crowded noisy college atmosphere of Miss Saigon on a Friday night (or any other night for that matter).
Re: “Lindy's on Fourth”
You just don't get it. More for the rest of us!
Re: “Char's Thai”
So far the best Thai in Tucson (and I've had some of the best in LA). Nothing fancy, just good Thai food.
Re: “Dao's Tai Pan's”
Many of the diners choose Pho, a traditional Viet soup. I have Pho here often because it is as good as the best Pho anywhere including Viet Nam. It can be ordered with chicken, beef, pork or just the soup. It is a filling meal.
Re: “Golden Corral”
Good food here, but you have to pick and choose. Salads are better than Sweet Tomato as is the fruit. Steaks if cooked right are good.
Stay away from some of the fried stuff and nasty side dishes.
Re: “Shogun Japanese Restaurant and Sushi Bar”
The best sushi serving size in town. Fresh too. Always pleasant Pak and Aoki serve you up light conversation, too. You may walk in but, after filling up, you'll need to roll out.
Re: “Thunder Canyon Brewery”
YUM. Great appetizers offered for half off during their happy hour. Something for every member of the family.
Re: “Shogun Japanese Restaurant and Sushi Bar”
Our favorite place if we're just craving Japanese and don't feel like spending a fortune. Half off select sushi rolls every day and great lunch box menu.
Re: “Macayo's”
The food here is not as good as La Parrilla Suiza, but is good and has a yummy dessert menu. The service is 9/10 times very good.
Re: “Magpies Gourmet Pizza”
The pizzas here are absolutely delightful and satisfying. I'd say that this is the only pizza place in Tucson that rivals 1702.
Re: “Verona Italian Restaurant”
Always a great place to eat if you are willing to spend the cash (menu is expensive but made fresh). Great wine list and great (but small) selection of dishes. The appetizers are really good too. Would not recommend the veal because of recent investigations that indicate the use of ham instead of veal.
Re: “1702”
Great pizza and great beer, however, the service is sometimes scant, understaffed, and takes a long time to get food and refills.
Re: “Govinda's Natural Foods Buffet and Boutique”
The food is awesome, tasty, and big variety. Salad bar is so fresh and lots of organic items to choose from. All of that for around $10. Atmosphere is A+ too.
Re: “The Garland Bistro”
Previously I failed to mention the wonderful service. Both friendly and professional, the service staff struck that perfect balance between the feeling of being stalked on one hand to the sensation of being neglected and abandoned on the other. Nicely done!
Re: “Bangkok Café”
Eaten here once; will again. Rundown:
+s
*Decent atmosphere
*Friendly staff
*Great curry
-s
*Specialty drinks overpriced
*Slightly overpriced overall, but justifiable
Re: “The B Line”
Eaten here twice. Rundown:
+s
*Nicely rounded beer selection
*Relaxed yet refined atmosphere
*Med-Lg sized portions
*Balanced flavors in all dishes had (fish burrito, salmon salad w/pasta)
-s
*Need to stay open later (suggestion: hire a manager to keep it open later during school to bring in some financial aid :) )
*Deserts, though visually appealing were ho-hum
Re: “Tatsu Sushi”
Such a fun little restaurant! You would never expect how nice it is from the outside. Service was friendly and probably the best sushi I've had in Tucson so far.

Re: “Fleming's Prime Steakhouse and Wine Bar”
Very good food and service, but bring your wallet!! Fleming's is chain but don't let that turn you off. While their Tucson location isn't their best it's still real good! Serious food for those who don't mind spending the bucks. This place is a notch or two above both Sullivan's and Mc Mahon's. For sure, Fleming's is a snob's paradise.
