Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Foothills

The food was excellent! Perfectly prepared prime rib and the horseradish sauce was amazing. The chocolate truffles we were presented as a surprise were outstanding. Everything about our dinner out for our anniversary felt special.

The inventive menu met every expectation that the rave reviews I read here and elsewhere created. It was very stimulating to a jaded palette, the dishes by every turn inspired in conception and flavorful in execution. As the restaurant does not publish its perhaps daily changing menu, I can’t properly name my dishes. The mushroom tart came with (for a mere $7 supplement) generous lashings of OR black truffle. The albacore crudo was the best raw tuna dish I’ve had this year, with shavings of raw turnip providing an unexpected but brilliant counterpoint. Their Sonoran spin on beef carpaccio should be recorded in a published recipe. I’ve never seen squash sorbet on a menu—with candied orange zest, it made for a refreshing ending. My server was highly professional and well informed about menu and wine pairings. She graciously brought a gift dish when one of mine not mentioned here disappointed me. Finally, the prices here are a bargain for fine dining at this level. A great exemplar of Tucson’s culinary scene.

Food was fantastic. Really delicious. Feels like there could be some weirdness with management or something... A lot of items were unavailable, even down to beverages. But I’d still say give it a try, the short ribs are damn good.

Really enjoyed the Christmas Eve pre fix. Lovely evening. Great service! Charming place.

Noise level was low because they put us in a separate dining room - food was great
