    Margherita Pizza to go
    Judy M.

    Busy considering it was a Sunday late afternoon. We had a reservation and were seated promptly at that time. The heirloom watermelon salad (with added chicken) was delicious! (As was the frozen cherry limeade mocktail, but was a touch too sweet for my personal taste. My dining companion thought it was not overly sweet though.) The salad had a lot of flavor, with the watermelon, pistachio, french feta, za'atar, champagne vinaigrette and heirloom tomatoes blending beautifully. Service was excellent and friendly. We were checked in on several times, but not obtrusively. Despite lots of people, we could hear ourselves talk and felt relaxed.

    I had the Thai Chicken Salad. It was delicious with just a hint of spiciness. The Strawberry Piña was very refreshing and not too sweet. Lively atmosphere but still conducive to conversation. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly.

    We went here because the other 2 places we tried going to were too long of a line (they just opened). We were pleasantly surprised with this place. I had heard about it once in passing but never really looked it up or anything. Every employee we came in contact with was so very nice and helpful when it came to our kids. I loved how the interior looked and it's nice and bright inside from natural lighting from the windows. The food was outstanding. There was not a bad thing to say about anything in our experience. Everything was flavorful and cooked well. My favorites were the pimento cheese dip, shishito peppers and the steak frites. We will be back.

    I love this place! I get the Brussel sprouts with bacon and onion plus a pizza- so good every time. Dad like the chicken. Both approved on the drink! this was something with tequila the waiter recommended I usually prefer vodka but I would order this again.

    Had the opportunity to try Doughbird today. From what I gathered, they've been in Tucson for about two years and are part of a smaller chain operating in three states. The space is clean, bright, and thoughtfully laid out, with an open feel and a cool sports bar area. Service was friendly and attentive--our server did a great job. The food was tasty, but I didn't feel it was a good value for the price. In my opinion, each entrée was about $5 higher than fair. The mac & cheese was flavorful, and the chicken fingers had great texture and taste, but for $20 there wasn't much meat. I understand prices have risen everywhere, but this still felt excessive. I'd be willing to come back and try something different if friends wanted to go, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

    After two of us ate. So big!

    Enjoyed Doughbird as part of Sonoran Restaurant Week. They were offering a great deal with items that can be regularly found on their menu. So first up we picked the appetizer of chicken wings. You can choose dry rub or buffalo sauce and our amazing server Matthew recommended dry rub with buffalo sauce on side. Follow this advice!! The wings are not scrawny and the dry rub gets a crispy skin with good bite, then dipping into sauce gives extra flavor with as my daughter pointed out, less mess. Sauce had nice kick to it. For entrees the daughter picked the spicy pasta and I got a pepperoni pizza. The pizza was huge! Enough for a second meal. It has the smaller pepperoni pieces on it, that bake to that nice crispy fry which is so much better than large greasy pieces. Good crust. The daughters pasta was good, and a healthy recommended serving size (ie, she ate a slice of my pizza after ) but it came with a lot of sauce, which was nice to dip the pizza crust into. The sonoran week special ends with a dessert, and once again took Matthew's recommendation of the butterscotch cake with vanilla bean gelato. The gelato was delicious, nice and smooth. The butterscotch cake had a crunchy outside with a moist inside, covered in sauce. If the daughter hadn't been so full she would have licked the plate. Will be back to try the chicken sandwich, which Matthew highly recommended. Ambiance is also lovely and the patio is great for beautiful days/evenings.

    Food was good. The ambiance was ok, kind of dark for my liking but ok. We got sat right away and out food didn't take to long to come out. The chicken potstickers were my fav and would def order again!

    We came here for Valentine's Day dinner which is also our wedding anniversary. We made an early reservation at 4pm and it was a nice easy in and out. The food was great! Easily the best pizza I've had in Tucson. It was even better the next day! My husband got the prime rib dip sammie it was 24$ and there was not $24 worth of meat on the sandwich, that was our only negative. Otherwise our server was excellent the taste of the food was excellent and the restaurant is nice with a nice bar and outdoor seating. We will be back!

    I've been wanting to come here for a long time and finally pulled the trigger. The food was outstanding. The service was excellent and they have a large dog friendly patio that welcomed my 97 poodle. The staff was super friendly and they even let me order some chicken for my dog. Which was so good that I even had to steal the bite. I will nut. The dog was not happy. Definitely coming back to this place.

    Pretty expensive for what it is. My friends like this restaurant though so we met for dinner. We ordered a margherita pizza and chicken tenders. Both were very good. Tenders come with an incredible coleslaw, very fresh and beautifully seasoned. Pizza was super tasty. Their Detroit style crust rocks. We topped it off with their brookie. Now that was a mistake. It is unnecessarily super duper sweet. I liked the chewiness of some parts of it whereas other parts were hard and crunchy. Service was pretty attentive until we were abandoned by our waitress after we paid the bill. We set for about an hour afterwards just catching up. It would have been nice if were offered some more water

    Crispy Chicken Parmesan

    This place is a staple in the north side for sure. Today came in at 5:25pm and man did it get so busy so fast on a Thursday. Definitely might have to wait during the dinner hour but inside is nice. Casual but also classy with a large bar and open kitchen. Food is always good, but I do think the prices are a bit high. I ordered the chicken parm with truffle orzo and that orzo was DELICIOUS! Hefty price of $26 for the meal but was very delicious so if you want to fork out the money it's a good choice. We always order the shishito for a starter and comes with a very unique, creamy umami sauce. We will be back!

    Had to remember to take a picture. It was so good I couldn't stop eating it!

    Had a great experience at dough Bird! The kids meals were very generous and they were elated to see that it came with a choice of a lemonade or a soda. Do barbecue chicken pizza was very good. The sauce wasn't too sweet, the chicken was moist and the crust had a wonderful texture to it. We had ordered a salad as an appetizer, I believe it was a brussel sprouts driven dish and I would say was bad but it wasn't very memorable either. Either. I think the pizza is what really shined, and I'm eager to try them again and maybe sample some of the more chicken forward food. The ambiance was beautiful inside. We had to have them remove the wine glasses because our kids were with us but they felt very fancy. Overall it was a delightful evening and I will be back

The booths were roomy and the space felt cozy and classy. I loved the décor and that paddle fan with the attached paddles was so fun to watch. Anything with cheese, barbecue, or chicken tenders is on another level here. Portions are very shareable. Service was kind, but it looked like our server was handling everything without a busser, so dishes stayed on the table longer than expected. The food still came out in a good amount of time. We ordered the Trio Sampler with Santa Fe Spinach Dip, Chicken Tenders, and Cheese Bites. My dad has a friend in Vegas who literally asks him to bring the spinach dip back, so we had to try it. It lived up to the hype. Our whole group agreed the chicken tenders were the best we have had. Perfect crisp and juicy, and that is a big compliment coming from a group ranging from 30 to 75 years old. Baby Back Ribs were tender and easy to share. My husband and I split ours and still had leftovers. Carrot Cake was rich and delicious with cream cheese icing, caramel, toasted coconut, and candied pecans. It almost gave a cheesecake moment. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and would come back!

I ordered a house salad with blue cheese, and tortilla soup. Friend asked for more muffins; server didn't acknowledge the request but did bring more of them. Our food came. My salad had the blue cheese dressing already in/on the salad. It was very good. The tortilla soup was more (flavorful) broth than meat with lots of tortilla strips in it, and a few kernels of corn. Friend's burger and salad was exactly the way she wanted it. I had to ask for more water. Friend had to ask for more water as well and each time we were served with no comment from the server. Friend asked for more muffins. They were brought with no comment. She had to ask for a to-go container for the left over muffins twice. Friend and I hadn't seen each other in a long time so we were there awhile - 2 hours. The place was never full so it wasn't as if our table was needed. It got to the point where the server stopped coming by our table and, to my amazement, then stopped at the table and picked up our signed credit card statements and walked away without a word! I have NEVER had a server do that. Friend mentioned that it looked like he definitely wanted us GONE!!!! Had I known we would be treated this way, I wouldn't have left my 20%+ tip. I want 15% of my tip back! I'll go back but never again have this person as my sever.

We Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon. Only two other customers in the place before we got there. A band called Bassanova was playing on the stage. They actually sounded pretty good. We asked the girl bartending if they always had bands on Sunday afternoons and she explained that they practiced there. They were actually a plus. The beer selection and prices are decent and it''s cool and dark inside which we were looking for on a hot June afternoon. Now for the not so great and reason for the two stars. The girl bartending who was only two feet away from us was more interested in her vape pin and her phone than the few customers in there bar. Even when we waited for breaks in the music to ask for another beer we had to ask twice to get her attention. My BF's second glass of beer had a chip on the rim of the glass and he nicked his lip. When he pointed out that the glass was chipped she didn't even acknowledge he said anything. He turned it to another side and just finished his beer. When she picked up his empty glass he again mentioned the broken glass and she jokingly said "Well why'd you break it?" She then came over and thoroughly inspected the glass before finally throwing it in the garbage without even an I'm sorry or any other comment even when he mentioned that it nicked his lip . The final insult though was when we when we were on our second beer, my BF asked if nobody was watching the TV, which was showing the movie Back to the Future IIit could be switched to some type of sports. After unsuccessfully finding a baseball game he chose horse racing, which he actually likes. After about 15 minutes another customer who seems like he comes in regularly came in and after a few minutes of taking to the bartender he must have mentioned something about the tv because she handed him the remote and without even asking if anyone was watching (which she knew we were) he changed the TV to a Big 3 basketball type game. My BF asked across the bar if we could at least watch one horse race before he changed the channel but either he didn't understand what he meant or didn't care that we were watching it. And to add insult to injury, he didn't even watch it, he just turned away from the TV and carried on a conversation with the bartender.

If you know a guy with a garage band who does decent covers of dad rock, he probably plays here on Thursday nights. Every now and then, you'll still see younger artists and crowds, as well as frequent karaoke. The sound system is great, and the new paint job, especially the mural gives it extra character. If you can bear the consistently loud environment, the small menu carries some hearty bar food. I highly recommend the pulled pork sandwich, but the wings are solidly above average. If you want to dine while enjoying some entertainment in a welcoming, unpretentious environment, you can't overlook Big Bad Wolf. I hope it sticks around!
