Re: “Best Place to Eat Pizza With Barflies”
Empire is my new fave pizza in Tucson. Thin crust and AWESOME sauce!
Re: “Best Pizza”
True NY pizza folds in half, then flops over at the tip and the oil/grease drips off. The only place we have found that comes close to being in NYC and having a good slice is at NYPD. No I do not work there, but have found Brooklyn Pizza Co. to be very inconsistent and ever since coming back from having the best pizza in NYC they have my vote hands down! They even have the right cheese! Not over or under sauced, all of the flavors are there they way they should be. Crust is exactly the crunch you should expect and you can get full off of 2 slices easily. Yes East Coast bias here as well, but if you're going to review pizza NY pizza is the only one to compare it to.
Re: “Best Wings”
Chopstix in Marana! One taste and you will have nothing to debate... "House" sauce is Amazing!
Re: “Best Burger”
I still think Fuddrucker's is the best spot for a burger. Unfortunately it's way east and I live in northwest...
Re: “Best Delicatessen”
Boar's Head cold cuts does not a deli make. A real deli roasts it's own meats and bakes it's own bread. A sandwich made with ingredients you can buy at any Fry's supermarket is not noteworthy.
Re: “Best Ice Cream”
Disappointed to see Allegro didn't get a nom. Now THAT'S gelato.
Re: “Best Burger”
My first impression was not a good one. First of all, a ten dollar burger should be bigger than my head or else it better be amazing. Mine was neither. I ordered it medium and it was burnt, not a little red at all and carbon flavor like it just sat in the flare ups. The lettuce was sub-par, mostly white and brown pieces. It really bothers me as an ex restaurant cook when I'm spending so much on a simple dish and they don't even try to make it like I like it. I would recommend In-n-Out (my fav) or Five Guys both over zinburger.
Re: “Best Desserts”
Ugh. Not sure why anyone likes the B Line.
Re: “Best Wings”
My family loooves wingstop!! We are the hugest fans
Re: “Best Sandwich”
I really think that The Sausage Shop is better than these places.
Re: “Best Ice Cream”
I really have to disagree with the Hub-I'm sorry but I can't get excited about this place when it doesn't deliver. Yeah, the decor is awesome but the food and ice cream are mediocre.
Re: “Best Desserts”
I really think I've had best deserts at....wait a minute....wait a minute....your favorite!!! Corporate restaurants!!!! =]
Re: “Best Burger”
For once I agree! In that order too!
Re: “Best Wings”
Great Choice for the best wings. I travel a lot and I always try to find a Wing Stop if I can. Every time I go there I try a different flavor. You wait a few minutes, but man it's worth the wait! They don't cook the wings till you order them. I started at the top of their flavors and I'm almost thru all nine of 'em, then I'm startin at the top again!
Re: “Best Wings”
Great for a football game or any event, it’s so easy to order on line or by phone
Re: “Best Wings”
Their wings are great also their bonelless wing, boneless strips and gliders are out of the world. Their Fries and Twisters are as good as the wings

Re: “Best Pizza”
Apparently no tried Dry River Pizza Company......by far the best pizza in Tucson. Brooklyn is just okay. Empire, Magpies, and Sauce all have better Pizza than Brooklyn. Brooklyn only won because it is cheap.
