    Dined here for a special occasion, which was acknowledged by our server! She was knowledgeable and attentive, and made some nice recommendations on the menu. We enjoyed our cocktail, wine, the grilled squash salad, pork chop and shrimp-in-broth entrees, and fabulous dark chocolate ganache dessert—if you are a chocolate lover, don’t miss that! Delicious and flavorful meal, quieter atmosphere than expected based on reataurant photos, and great service. And open on Sunday night, which quite a few Tucson restaurants are not.

    Everything came out in a timely manner, my mom and I got our drinks at the same time and it was really nice. They didn’t have the original dish that I had ordered but I was suggested a few different options and I went with the fired chicken which I had before and the manager took care of the mixup. I love coming here with my family just know when you go in the evening hours there may be some live music which definitely adds to the noise. But everything is always so good!
