I really liked the dish I tried at Agustin Kitchen. I had a $20 voucher for dinner and came by to try their Coriander-Rice Crusted Oyster Mushrooms entree with orange- ginger- chili jam, napa apple slaw, togarashi and citrus. It was absolutely delicious and all the flavors compliment one another perfectly. The batter stayed crispy even with the slaw on top and the orange-chili jam balanced it nicely. I love that the entire dinner menu is 20% off for happy hour 4pm-6pm. The regular price seemed high to me for the serving size but I could definitely tell that they put effort and creativity into the dish. The menu changes seasonally and the food tasted very fresh and interesting. I hope to see them add some plant-based items to their breakfast and lunch menus the next time the menu shifts with the season. Vegan, vegetarian and GF items are clearly marked. They have nice outdoor seating with sprinklers. I will mention that the food took about 40 minutes to come out even when they didn't seem busy, it was not a problem for me but just noting that it might not be a good spot to come to in a rush. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite! read more

Here on business, treated like family. We rolled in with a group of 12 people and had a blast. Reservations were easy, restaurant was clean and spacious, and the staff were excellent. Food was on point and delicious. Drinks were always full. And service was friendly and patient. After a long day at work while on travel, it was nice to be comfortable with good food. Cheers Agustin. Pro tips: plenty of parking around the corner. And super clean bathrooms. read more

This is one of my favorite places in Tucson, there is a French yet Mexican/Spanish quality to the place. This beautiful restaurant is inside a building that opens into a small plaza where people can dine outdoors if they like. Its romantic but not arrogant and a very down to earth place. I have been here several times and this last time I was here, I came over after a sunset hike at Tumomac Hills. I sat at the bar and had a nice bartender take care of me. I had a PJ Margarita which was thirst quenching and refreshing after a hardy hike. I ordered the turnip salad and a side of frites. My turnip salad arrived and I gobbled up the goodness that can only happen with fresh veggies prepared this way and then waited for the frites. I got tired of waiting for the frites so asked the bartender to close me out. He asked if I wanted them to go and I said no. I should have better communicated that I wanted my salad and fries to arrive at the same time. Oh well, my mistake, no big deal. Bartender was very nice about it, took off the fries and also gave me 20% off HH pricing for my drink and salad. Overall, a good experience here, love the decor, and the pendant lighting at the bar is what drew me in initially. I'd definitely come back again when in Tucson. A mature and laid back place that still has style and class. read more

Enjoyed another delicious steak dinner here. They didn't have the steak listed on the menu and substituted a flank steak with choice of side (fries, asparagus, or risotto). I chose the risotto and it was great, not too rich since there was cauliflower and veggies added. The serving size was very generous of steak and risotto. They've changed the happy hour, it's now from 4-6 (even better than 3-5) and still 20% off the entire menu. Service was very friendly. It's worth noting the food takes a long time to come out, even if it's slow. We weren't in a rush so it was fine. Can't wait to return. read more

Not sure why this place only has an overall 3.5 stars rating, our experience overall was 5/5 and food was 4.5/5. We came a bit too late for lunch and too early for HH. I wanted to check the area out, Mercado San Augustin. We were there around 2 something and Agustin HH doesn't start until 3pm. During their HH, everything on the menu is 20% off. Service was great, our server was wonderful and so lovely! I love the decor and feel of the place. They have the main dining section and then a bar/coffee/HH/everything else in between section. The main dining area has a feel of a fancy wine restaurant, and the HH bar area has a cozy after coffee date vibe. Food was delicious! We had the salmon, half chicken, fish and chips, and the turnip salad! Everything was delicious and their fries were very crispy. The half chicken was delicious but that takes 30 mins, FYI. We also got the tiramisu and pain killer (coconut gelato) for desserts and they were excellent. read more

Went here twice this year already once for brunch and once for dinner. The staff were friendly and helpful both times. I had the fish and chips and the shrimp and grits and both were very good. The fish was nice and crispy and there was a nice portion, the fries were really good. The shrimp and grits were so good I will be back for that. Definitely worth a try. read more

This visit was waaaay better than the last. Came here with the family to have linner before going to see The Nutcracker. We had unneeded reservations and sat on the bar side of the restaurant, I'm guessing, to keep the foot traffic on one side of the restaurant since there were not that many patrons. It was fine and we were well taken care of the entirety of our meal. I had a yummy cosmo to start then went straight for my entree, braised short ribs served with overnight carrots and creamy, Yukon gold potatoes. The short ribs were almost as good as the ones I make. Loved the carrots and potatoes. I would have wolfed down my meal but didn't want everyone at the theater knowing what I had for dinner. I'm glad cuz leftovers stood the test of overnight in the fridge. I would love for this place to be my local go-to restaurant but it has been hit or miss for me. And it is mostly on the service side. As someone who has worked in food service in hotels and restaurants, some from opening day, I can tell you that on top of serving a quality meal, consistent service standards are key. I know. It's no duh, but it doesn't always occur. I am glad that we caught AK on a good day because it was the first time for one of us. read more

5 of us had dinner there on a Friday evening for a family member's birthday. First, I loved that the tables were spaced out and you could hear everyone at your table and you didn't feel like other diners were sitting right next to you. Really pretty interior. We sat near the kitchen, but the chefs were so quiet while they were working, you wouldn't realize it other than to look at the beautiful style. I had the fish and chips and it was delicious. Not greasy, perfectly cooked. Would definitely get that again. The others at the table said theirs was great as well. We had several different starters and all were very good. Service was great. We were in no rush and we in no way felt hurried along. But if there was anything we needed, we didn't have to go in search of someone to help. Definitely enjoyed our time there. read more

Sadly, this place appears to have permanently closed. Thursday, September 3, 2026 at 7:15 p.m., encountered dark premises with cryptic homemade sign that said only "summer siesta" with no dates. I was there only about two weeks ago when I was told that the new chef and new menu would be starting September 1. Something is very wrong here. read more

I tried Agustin Kitchen's new café for brunch this morning, and I absolutely loved it! It of course has all the charm of the Mercado and Agustin Kitchen that we know and love, and adds to that a bright, fun breakfast menu and lots of pastries. It was a delicious meal in a beautiful space. We got the latke with egg and lox, the breakfast sandwich, kombucha, and an iced coffee. Everything was excellent! I especially liked the latke itself, which was a well-made, thick potato pancake that paired perfectly with the light and fresh elements of herbal cheese and greens, as well as the richer components of the egg and lox. The staff were super friendly, and it was fun to have a casual morning meal in the same space I usually think of as a special-occasion dinner restaurant. I really, really loved it and I can't wait to go back. read more

I came here for birthday and i was very pleased with the service and the food! I had no idea they have some of the best oysters because they source from a reputable distributor that provides high quality and fresh oysters and that says a-lot coming from a seafood snob! Lol The desert was super pretty and esthetic looking. The burgers fries and salads were also super delicious. We also came back during the holidays on a super busy night and the service was still exceptional. I love that the have outdoor seating area and can also be seated inside which is just as nice and lovely vibes. I will definitely be coming back. read more

I came with my friend to grab a quick drink this past weekend. We had to wait in line for about 15 mins, which is too long considering we were third in line when we arrived. The staff was slow and didn't seem to be in any rush to take our order. I go to the mercado quite frequently and when I eat at the other establishments I never have to fight off flies and gnats despite sitting outside. While sitting at the bar inside Agustin Kitchen I constantly had to wave off so many gnats that were buzzing around me. On top of that, the restaurant smelled like fish despite having only one fish item on their menu. This was my second poor experience here and I don't think I'll be coming back. read more

Was shopping on a Sunday in Mercado and realized we were hungry- Augustine was surprisingly empty, but the two friends I was with had been before and said it was great, so we stoped in. The space is airy and lovely, so we sat inside. There were only a few other tables occupied but it was nearly ten minutes before our water glasses were even filled. This was done by a bald gentleman who didn't say a word to us- we thought he was a busser as a result. So we were very surprised when another ten minutes passed and he showed up again and asked if we were ready. He never introduced himself, never offered to take a drink order, and let our water glasses sit empty multiple times. It was brunch, so the three of us ordered two farmer's salads and a breakfast plate. It didn't take too long for the food to arrive, and the salads were great. But the breakfast plate- which was ordered with three eggs over easy- arrive with two eggs that were flat but sort of poached, and definitely medium. They were also served in a small bowl on top of each other, making them near impossible to eat. Again, no filling our water, no checking if the food was ok, or even offering or bringing salt and pepper (which the poached eggs desperately needed). When the server dropped off the bill, we saw he'd rung in the eggs incorrectly, even though he'd repeated the order back to us when we placed it. Not a great experience- the food was expensive so none is us will be hurrying back. read more

It's been 5+ years since my last review and Agustin Kitchen has gone through some update worthy changes. We dined there brunch, which is now order at the counter service. By the time we arrived, the pastry case was empty on a Sunday which was bummer but our group enjoyed the meal. We ordered the pancakesm served with two, but we split them for our toddlers and they are enormous. This dish can easily be shared by two adults. I ordered the breakfast plate with scrambled eggs. It's served with toasted/butter bread, bacon and potatoes. I'm a simple breakfast type and this was satisfactory. Others ordered the caesar salad, fries and the chicken salad sandwich. We did wait a long time for our food, so there is some room for improvement there. Other areas of improvement were our beverages. I ordered the golden latte and it was quite watery. My friend also mentioned her cafe au lait was watery. Other than that, the food was good and nicely presented. read more

After my first ever visit to the MSA Annex, me and my crew were looking for a chill spot to enjoy some drinks and small bites (and a reprieve from the heat!) I'd never seen of or heard this place, I just sort of stumbled upon it. And I have no regrets--it was worthwhile. The interior feels luxurious, but approachable. Ideal for small groups. The menu itself spans quite a range of New American cuisine, ranging from casual handhelds like smash burgers, to sophisticated takes on comfort foods like shrimp and grits. The scent of seafood permeated the air and gave me cravings for some sort of sea creature, so I went with the calamari. Perfectly fried, with what appeared to be some fried chiles mixed in, and garnished with a generous heap of mint and cilantro. The drizzle of fish sauce carmel really elevated this to something you can't get anywhere else. The drink selection is more than enough for whatever you're in the mood for on tap, but I was absolutely blown away with the cocktails. This was surprisingly one of the best margaritas I'd ever had in Tucson! Despite coming pretty late into the evening, service was above and beyond, and we all left happy. I would definitely bring my friends here again. read more

Since my last review several years ago, we have returned repeatedly to Augustin Kitchen. We have found them delightful in both service and quality of cuisine. We have enjoyed both their patio and the dining room experiences. It is a beautiful setting, especially on a mild afternoon where the patio is truly dog friendly. Thank you. read more

Comfy and Warm setting of the restaurant. Very open and inviting. The service was excellent. Proper service and guest experience was provided. The food was good - ranking 8 out of 10. Appetizers were more on the salty side. Our steaks were ordered medium rare but was delivered as medium well probably because it may have rest for too long. Presentation of each plates were neat and clean. Recommend indoor seating to enjoy its ambiance. Food recommendations: Mussels (100%) and Pork Rack read more

I chose the vegetarian selection for my New Year's Eve dinner at Agustin Kitchen. I was disappointed at the lack of flavor, seasoning on my dishes. Some dishes were room temp, causing the couple next to us to request a warmer plate. This was a $100/person 5-course meal. All selections were mediocre at best and it's clear that the chef is not experienced with vegetarian dishes. I ordered a mocktail which was homemade and tasty. I would not recommend eating here as a vegetarian or vegan. Overpriced and the meals were not delicious. The dessert was cornbread. Ours was overcooked making it too hard rather than soft. The maple flavor was too much which overwhelmed the overall taste. We were definitely disappointed. Customer service was a 6/10. The music selection they played was all over the place and so loud that we had difficulty hearing each other. Our tables were very close on the right and left of guests. read more

Lots of potential, but inconsistent. The flank steak was excellent, flavorful and cooked perfectly. The burger was ordinary, nothing special. The salmon was disappointingly overcooked (the sliced and grilled squash side, however, was lovely). The place has good, historic bones with bead board ceilings and paneled moulding walls. It's a bit cavernous and the main dining area is quite dark at night. One end and the kitchen are painted white and more appealing/welcoming to my senses. Service was good, attentive, lots of personality. read more

Cute vibe here but food is a little disappointing. Cocktails are pretty good. Fish and chips tasted like it was just dipped in batter and fried, no flavor really.

The shrimp and grits were also ok. read more

This is located in the Mercado district and the interior looks fairly upscale when you walk by. Prices are on the higher side and the service is slow even when they are not busy. I tried the hibiscus margarita which tasted good, but it comes in a fairly small cocktail glass. Had the fish and chips from the menu, which was just average. They do have happy hour every day from 3-5pm, but even those prices are on the high end. All in all I'm not sure that I would go out of my way to go back here. read more

Before coming to Tucson to visit my son, I had to search for a restaurant that would be open for Thanksgiving. A few days before Thanksgiving, the hostess called to confirm our reservation and informed me that it would be buffet style. The courtyard space and interior is gorgeous. It has that classy old-fashioned charm. The buffet setup excited me. Everything looked so mouthwatering. The food is New American with French influences. I am not going to list everything but omg, I had to control myself with their fresh baked Parker House rolls with whipped honey butter. Their prime rib is a winner. I am not a turkey lover but it was juicy. The mixed fruit salad was refreshing. I can tell that the string beans and carrots were homegrown. Such beautiful veggies. Each dish was well prepared. The only dish we all didn't like was the Mac & Cheese. The pasta was thick and it felt heavy. But all in all, the entire meal was absolutely wonderful. No matter who we encountered, every member of the staff went above and beyond. First class service all the way. read more

Walked into an empty restaurant and the gal that greeted us asked if we had a reservation - we looked around and asked "did we need one" She gave us a dirty look, took a breath and said "well, If you had one, I would want to get you checked in" I said "oh I see, no we don't" She grabbed menus, put them on a table without saying a word and walked away - hmmmmm okay Our waitress was great. Very nice disposition and had great tats that he Dad did. She was very released yet attentive. Mom loved her food. I will say this, get the bread (costs 9 bucks for bread and butter with what seemed to be everything bagel spread) but it was so yummy (the bread not necessarily the butter) Mom also asked the waitress to have the bartender to suggest a glass of wine with her fish - the bill came, it was $50.00 for the glass of wine. ‍ Mom was okay with that, just a little surprised. I ordered the chicken salad without the bread. Something just didn't taste right / like it had relish in it or something. It had grapes and said apples but I didn't see or taste the apples. I had the worst stomach ache all day that lasted into the evening. I had to nurse that bad boy all night. The atmosphere is really cool but I would not go back. The Mexican place was suggested to us in that square (Seis) and it was packed but Mom didn't want to sit outside and wanted to be served instead of ordering at the counter. I gave it a 4 because Mom loved her meal read more

We ordered a bread service. It was $8 the bread which was the size of a very small cucumber around and 4 inches long came and was hard as a rock. I asked the waitress what week was it made? We couldn't even eat it. It was terrible and we were charge for it anyway. They should have been embarrassed. Also, we waited for our meal a good 45 minutes and it was very average at best. We will NEVER go there again. We had been told that it was a hit or miss place. Definitely, a total miss read more

Really wanted to like this place. I've given it a few tries and I probably will not go back. Ambiance is all they have going for them. Very cute place and anything in the Mercado is going to be a nice place to sit. This review is specifically for brunch. I appreciate that they could seat a larger group as a walk in but our server wasn't the best. We were actually the only other table outside of 2 others yet our server was very slow. She barely checked on us and drinks weren't refilled. We had to ask for the check early because we knew it would take forever to see her again. The automatic gratuity was not a good representation of her service. My husband and I ordered the French toast, potatoes and bacon. The potatoes were sitting in a puddle of grease and had no flavor. The bacon was hard and only the top French toast was good, because it had the icing on it. Friends who ordered eggs said they were bland but the waitress didn't come back in time for us to ask for salt and pepper. I didn't remember to take a photo until we were done picking at our food so I'm sorry I don't have good ones. read more

The best part of this place is the ambience. Dark lighting, modern decor, open kitchen. Love the vibe. The service was also very good. We had a reservation for 6:15 but arrived at 6 and they seated us right away. The hostess even brought some extra crayons and stickers for my toddler daughter. And when my daughter got her napkin and area especially dirty, the server playfully brought over another napkin without us requesting it. All in all, those aspects are 5 stars. With that being said though, the rest of the experience--ie the food!--was seriously lacking. The menu is extremely limited. I could not find a single thing I even wanted so I ended up getting French onion soup for $14! My husband got the spaghetti carbonara and the serving looked underwhelming in size especially for $24. We were joined by our friend and she opted for the fries and aioli. We ordered a cheeseburger for my daughter off the kids menu, mostly because I wanted to have some of it, since nothing was appealing to me.it was served with fries and those were very good. We also had an order of barrio bread and I'm shocked they charge $9 for this! The butter it came with was delicious but seriously $9?!?!? Between the limited menu with so many unappealing items, the insane price points, and the underwhelming quantity, I don't think I'll be back. While the ambience and service were top notch, it's not enough for me to justify returning. Maybe I'm missing something? Maybe they have good happy hour or good lunch? But from what I experienced, it's not for me. read more
