I have lived here my entire life, and Karichimaka Restaurant on Mission Road is, in my opinion, the best Mexican food in town. Eegees is a national treasure, but ever since new management took over in the last few years, their sandwiches are not the same but the drinks are still awesome. Pinnacle Peak is my favorite place to go for steak dinners. And I am so glad that you included Bobo’s because that there’s a little hole in the wall place that a lot of people do not know about but their breakfasts are off the chain! You can never go wrong if you go to Lucky Wishbone. 🐻⬇️🌵 P.S. I used to work at the Furr’s Cafeteria at Park Mall 1984-1985 and am deeply disappointed that we no longer have one of my favorite cafeterias around here.

It's hard 2 take your reviews seriously, as an ex-Tucson restaurant professional that helped start Tucson Originals in 1997 with 5 other guys/restaurants. Seriously, I'd like 2 appreciate your reviews, but they are not accurate in hardly any way. You've left out so many places that I can't even account for all your inaccurate accounts of what is going on in the Tucson restaurant scene. WOW

Yea.... Chicago. How big and how many people? You think they can fit a few restaurants there? Funny, the last time I was in Tucson I was with Chicago natives who moved here (wonder why) and they took me to some phenomenal restaurants.. Mostly Italian. Tucson has top notch restaurants of all types and afterwards you don't have to put on your coat and dig your car out of a snow drift to get home.

Tucson is a horrible city for family fun and eating out.. I love Mt Lemmon and Tanque Verde falls and going to Madera Canyon but that’s about it there’s nothing to do on the weekends with your family the things to do list online has the dumbest things I’ve ever seen in my life that we would never pay to do

Seems like your outward anger is a manifestation of your inner disgrace. Might be a good time to re-evaluate your decision making. What is an utter disgrace is lack of self awareness.

The pandemic killed a lot of Tucson’s few good places to eat and have fun, in whole, aside from the performing arts and music community, most of Tucson is exceptionally mediocre, except to those who don’t know how much better it could be. Blue Willow, definitely worth it, but Bobo’s? you gotta be kidding, for people with no taste buds, sorry, this is purely BS advertising.

Mexico is definitely a big country, and while Tucson has many Sonoran-style Mexican restaurants, we also have plenty of other types of Mexican foods too. We also have many, many, many other types of restaurants though 😋 Thanks for checking out the channel!

Haha it sounds crazy but I don’t eat that much Mexican food either! I’m more of an Italian, sushi, or Greek food person myself :) my favorite Mexican food isn’t really Sonoran-style like we have a lot of here. I really like seafood Mexican food and anything that incorporates a lot of fresh veggies and thick creams. 😋
