The server was friendly and the ice cream wasn't bad but it wasn't something that blew me away. Also we had initially wanted an affogato but the espresso machine was down. This review is solely based on the ice cream though I do think the interior looked fun/elegant to dine in and try food. I would be interested in giving this spot a try for the food and drinks.

The small plates were just the right size. The oysters were perfectly prepared; I could almost taste the ocean. The shrimp Al Ajillo was out of this world. Be sure you say yes when you are offered extra bread to dip up the sauce. Husband had the Ropa Vieja and thoroughly enjoyed it. We shared the Patatas Bravas and ordered extra garlic aïoli because it was so good. The space is pleasant with outdoor seating and indoor seating with a huge rollup window that lets in the fresh air. The staff is very friendly. This will definitely be a must return spot when we come to Tucson.

Service was odd and standoffish. It feels like it wants to be a Miami club for young bros?…read more We spent $200+ trying many tapas and paella. The patatas bravas was cooked well but understated in flavor. The lamb chops with whipped chimichurri were very smoky, which I like, but the chimichurri flavor was hardly noticeable. Tuna on toast tasted canned. Paella rice was very good but you could tell the sea food had been frozen a long time--no flavor. Overall the food and the atmosphere fell far short of our hopes, not to mention our standards.

Love, love, LOVE this space on 4th Ave in Downtown Tucson!!…read more I was recently in town visiting family and noticed it while having a weekend night out for some drinks on Fourth Avenue - I'm not sure how new it is but I hasn't seen it before and thought it looked pretty cool! Its Boxyard name comes from the various shipping containers that make up most of the buildings inside. It reminded me of Container Park in Las Vegas and similar places in Downtown Austin. I'm very excited that Tucson has a place like this now too!! We were there on a Saturday night, so it was very crowded with a DJ playing in the back, yet it was still open and spacious enough to have plenty of breathing room. I also loved how there's more than one bar for grabbing drinks at and a few food options - we got a couple of smash burgers from Daddyburger inside and they were GREAT!! Took a little while to be ready but it was a busy Saturday night, so understandable. Definitely make sure to add the arugula and pickles to it - loved the extra textures and crunch. The burger hit the spot and the fries were solid McDonald's type fries. Other food options inside included a Mexican food/burrito spot with several vegan options and also a sandwiches/snacks thing! We ended up just eating, drinking, and dancing to the music the whole night there. It was a blast!! It also looked like a great spot for just hanging out or getting some food whenever during the day or the week. I highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area!

Even during the busy lunch rush with what seemed like half the downtown office crowd grabbing lunch, the staff was incredibly attentive and everything moved surprisingly fast. I never felt rushed, but I was still able to get in and out with plenty of time to spare. I ordered the Chipotle Green Chile Cheeseburger, and it was phenomenal! The smash burger patties were perfectly cooked with a great sear, and the green chile had just the right amount of flavor without overpowering the burger. I especially loved the smoky chipotle flavor. It came with their house-made chips, which were fresh and really tasty. I also ordered a sweet tea that was delicious and paired perfectly with lunch. Before I left, I grabbed a bag of the Raptor Tracks from the bakery case. I forgot to take a picture, but they were so good. They reminded me of Nutella Muddy Buddies and disappeared way too quickly. Great food, fast service, and a perfect option if you're working or spending time downtown. I'll definitely be back, and I highly recommend the Chipotle Green Chile Cheeseburger!
