Okay... I'm officially obsessed with Jimmy's Pita & Poke…read more This was my second time back, and honestly? Zero guilt eating here it's fresh, filling, and somehow still feels like a "good decision" meal. And let's talk portions... these bowls are massive. Easily shareable if you're trying to be budget-conscious, but fair warning, you probably won't want to share. This time we ordered the Jimmy's Bowl, we skipped the pineapple, but everything else? Incredible. The spicy salmon and tuna were insanely fresh, the kind where you can actually taste the quality. It just melts in your mouth. Every layer adds something: crisp cucumber, jalapeños, green onions, crispy onions, chili, avocado... it's like a perfectly built flavor stack. I also got the Munson gyro with greens (I went with romaine) and extra tzatziki and wow. Between the feta, the freshness, and that sauce, it hit every note. Pro tip: order an extra pita. I did, and turned it into two meals without even trying. Don't sleep on this spot!

This place is the best place to go to in town if you're living on campus. The food is delicious,…read morethe service is professional and nice, and the ambiance is overall good too. The pitas are delicious and so are the poke bowls. While the prices have increased over time, it's overall worth what you pay for. Everything is fresh no matter what you order and the variety of food makes it better too. I always love going here to order something. I loved the Philly pita and I also love doing a poke bowl with salmon, tuna, rice and greens. With so many toppings to choose from and other good stuff it's the best. Also the breakfast items here are also delicious as they're also fresh and cooked to perfection. No complaints from me and always leave a generous tip here. Also this is a good place for club fundraisers too.

I came here today to pick up some food for takeout.

Service was fast since no one was ahead of me. I took it to a friend's house and we both enjoyed everything. There are plenty of leftovers, too. The only downside is that the "crab" here is imitation crab.

Well spoken and energized. The portion size at first was eh but I didn't finish my bowl so now I am happy with the portion haha! I ordered half rice half noodles ! It was bomb!!! Spicy shrimp and cream cheese crab. I didnt do veggies. There was people sitting outside and eating which was nice , me and my ruca woulda stayed but we had the kids and aint no way in the tucson hot sun i will pay that price for them to not like it . Haha. So we grabbed it to go and came home it was still fresh and very good. Looked like the manager was out wiping things down cleaning up so the building was clean and nice as well. Highly recommended. Tell CJ i said Lets Go Mets!!

How have I not been here before?! Seriously…read more Taichi hits that sweet spot of fast, fresh, and actually satisfying--which is not always easy to find, especially when you want something on the lighter side. The menu is super customizable, which I love--especially if you're plant-based or just trying to keep things on the healthier side. Tons of veggie and vegan options, and nothing feels like an afterthought. I went with a tofu bowl and it was delish--fresh, flavorful, and filling without being heavy. Exactly what you want when it's blazing hot and you need something refreshing but still crave-worthy. Service was great--quick, friendly, and easy. The whole space has a cute, clean aesthetic too, making it a perfect low-key brunch or midday reset spot during those intense desert heat days. Light, refreshing, customizable, and reliable? Say less. I'd definitely go back.

Taichi Bubble Tea…read more This review is based on an Uber Eats order, and honestly... if the food tastes this good after delivery, I can only imagine how incredible it is in person. I didn't see the restaurant itself yet, but after this experience, visiting is officially on the to-do. We started with the takoyaki balls, which were an absolute standout. I'm not an expert on how they're made, but I did notice pieces of octopus inside, and wow so good. The sauce on top is an explosion of flavor: rich, savory, slightly sweet, and totally addictive. I could eat these every time and never get bored. Next, we built our own Tachi burrito bowl and this is where Taichi really shines. The customization options are next-level. You can choose white rice, brown rice, no rice, and even a greens base. Then you get three proteins yes, three. Options include tuna, spicy tuna, salmon, spicy salmon, shrimp, tofu, crab meat, and chicken. From there, it's toppings galore: avocado, cucumbers, red onions, cherry tomatoes, jalapeños, mango, masago, seaweed salad, and crunchy add-ons like fried garlic or fried onions. The variety alone deserves applause. And then... the sauces. This is where you can really get creative. Spicy mayo, poke sauce, chili hot sauce, eel sauce, mango sauce, ponzu, Thai sweet chili, Thousand Island, wasabi the list goes on. We went with spicy tuna, salmon, and spicy salmon, and let me tell you fresh, flavorful, perfectly balanced. Every bite worked. I don't claim to be a poke or Thai food expert, but whatever choices we made... we absolutely made the right ones. Bottom line: even through delivery, Taichi delivered. Fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and endless customization. Next time, in person, and probably ordering way too much.

I wanted to update my review after several years and several great meals at Obon. They have really…read moreupped their game these last couple of years (I'm guessing thanks to their new head chef). In my prior review, I complained about a lack of consistency in their meals. Not anymore! I can happily say that my meals have been consistently good. They've updated their menu many times since my last review - this is for the better. While they still have some of their classics like their ramen (the vegan ramen is actually delicious and with umami flavor), they've added other fun things like the braised short rib donburi. (Which they recently had a special where the donburi was made with udon noodles instead of rice - please make this a permanent menu item!!) I love their yuzu yellowtail sashimi dish. To be honest, I would argue Obon has some of the best sushi in Tucson. Their cocktails have also gotten much better. Before, I felt like many of them were pretty strange creations. Now, their drinks are still unique but thoughtfully made - not full of sugars, candy, etc. I look forward to having a cocktail at Obon now. The interior/exterior of the restaurant has not changed; I do not mind this. The ambiance has always felt right. If there was one minor thing I'd change, it would be so that when you sit at the sushi bar, you could actually see the sushi being made (it's hard to explain the seating at the bar but basically the view of the sushi chefs at work is sorta blocked by the unused sushi itself). But this is incredibly minor and not at all an issue causing a lesser rating. As you can see, I have come to really love Obon. I come here semi-regularly, both on dates and with friends, so I felt it was only just to update my previous critiques. If it's been a while since you last tried Obon, definitely give it another go. They are doing some good work here, clearly listening to customers and making improvements.

We made reservations and were seated promptly. We opted for indoor seating. It's really nice…read moreinside. Nice dim lighting. Our server was friendly and gave us time to look over the menu. We began with ordering edemame and yellow tail nigiri to start. It was from the happy hour menu which was a great start to our meal. I also got their cocktail of the day, which was pretty refreshing. Keep in mind that HH is good until 6pm. We also ordered salmon roll, teriyaki noodles with either white rice and 2 buns to share. It was good enough for two people. Overall, food tasted great. Very fresh.

Really love coming to this place after a nice yoga session on Tuesdays…read more My go-to has been the Mt. Fuji Bowl with Tuna with half the serving of rice but my last time there I tried the black sesame ramen. It was really rich and flavorful. I want to say that it was just as good as Monta Ramen in Chinatown in Las Vegas. You walk up, you order then they text you when your order is ready. While you're waiting, you can grab a drink from the Westbound Bar (drink included with yoga) then find a spot then chill with your fellow yogis. After having had the ramen I would designate this place as the go to next time I feel like having it.

The whole area is really fun--made up of shipping container shops--and has such a cool, laid-back vibe. It already set the tone before we even got our food. Coming from California, I definitely have high expectations when it comes to sushi, and this place honestly delivered. The fish tasted fresh, the rice was flavorful and well-balanced, and everything just came together really nicely. We also tried some ramen, which was surprisingly solid too. We grabbed our food and sat near the bar, and it made for a great, casual dinner experience. Between the food and the atmosphere, it's a really nice spot to check out, especially if you're visiting Tucson and want a good sushi fix.

Here's an update to my original post and I am so glad I decided to come back and try it again…read more There's so much to like about Kiwami Ramen. Namely the food is delicious, but there's more. The people are kind. I went through the drive through and asked what they recommended for ramen and went with the curry with pork. So good. They were helpful and sweet and I love that. You can tell that they genuinely like the food and that's everything. The packaging was very nice, stapled and nestled in a paper bag. I never doubted that it would tumble over or spill all over my car. It came in a large plastic bowl within a bowl and broth was on the bottom so it was easy to add the noodles vegetables and meats to the broth. The second time through pick up I chose the Tonkatsu a miso based broth with pork and egg. How do they get the egg so perfectly cooked? It's magic I think. Can't wait to try all the things.

First time being here. Was promptly greeted and sat. It was…read morenot very busy at all on a Saturday afternoon. Everything we had here was good and the food came very quickly. Even my 4&6 year old loved the ramen and the Avo Tuna. It is a very small place but the inside is decorated nicely. There is a small patio for eating outside as well. I would recommend for a quick bite to eat.

This food court is a really cool spot. The environment is super friendly and sociable, and it feels…read morelike a great place to hang out whether you are grabbing a quick bite or staying a while. There are about nine or ten different food options, so you have a ton to choose from. You have everything from hot dogs, Greek food, burgers, pizza, pasta, sushi, coffee, and more. On top of that, about a third of the space is a full bar, which adds to the overall vibe. We tried Monster Sonoran Dogs and GM Kitchen 86, and both were really good. The burger from GM Kitchen was massive and the fries were on point. If you are in the mood for a burger, that is definitely the place to go. One thing that really stood out was how clean everything was. The staff going around cleaning tables were constantly on top of it, and one of them even helped answer a couple quick questions I had. Overall, this is a great spot with lots of variety, good food, and a welcoming atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out.

It is similar to a food court style set up, but it is modern and elevated, but with a rustic feel and vibe. There is everything from sushi, burgers, Sonoran, dogs, coffee, ice cream, tacos, pizza, Greek, and so much more. Today I was drawn in by the Birria Dog. It has a cool pink bun and all of the fixings of a Sonoran dog with Birria on top. They also had something called juicy sticks which is basically mozzarella sticks with Birria onions, cilantro, salsa Verde, and a lime. This has an amazing cheese pool if you are looking for an epic photo app and delicious taste. We also tried the gourmet sandwiches and delicious burgers called GM kitchen 86. We got the butcher burger and fries and it did not disappoint. The burger is stacked high with two patties and two onion rings and slathered with sauce and cheese. They also have patio seating too, and even a bar for those who want to partake in a little adult beverage. I highly recommend checking out this location, especially for the variety that it has and the atmosphere.
