Best Southwest American Restaurants in Downtown Tucson

Our dinner was delicious and served promptly. Our waitress was friendly and attentive but without being a distraction. Great Happy Hour at Blanco.

This is a great little spot for Mexican food! The restaurant is small. When we arrived for our reservations there were no tables so we sat at the bar. Our server was very friendly and the owner helped us order all the good stuff! We ordered a sampling so we could try it all! We got tacos, mini chimichanga , and chili relleno. The winner of all was the chili relleno. It was lightly breaded and yummy. We will be back when it gets warmer so we can sit outside on their patio!

This restaurant is always a treat. There is usually a jazz combo performing, and on this Friday night, it also featured a singer performing standards from the American Song Book. It makes a nice atmosphere for dinner. The patio was a little chilly this night, but the staff, without being asked, thoughtfully seated us in a room with a fireplace adjacent to the patio where it was quieter, but we could still hear the music well. The food selections are good here, and there is a very good wine list, including wines "on tap" which are reasonably priced, always fresh, and good. It's a southwest style menu, with good variety and vegetarian options. The staff is great here, and they cheerfully modify menu items to suit your taste. And Hacienda del Sol is such a beautiful resort with its wonderful garden entry, valet parking, and historic charm.

We loved the service, decor and the meal! Such a lovely view while sitting in a warm, southern Arizona setting.

One waiter all tables but he worked very hard to please us
