Great ambiance. We started with the pepperoni chips, Brussel sprouts and pitcher of sangria. Awesome. Wife had the steak. I had the rotisserie chicken. Daughter had the chicken strips. All the food was great. Service was great. We will be back. read more

I've eaten at this DoughBird restaurant a few times since it opened - they're still having growing pains, but for the most part, the food is good. I like the truffle mushroom pizza, the chicken tenders, the mashed potatoes and the macaroni and cheese. I like the Caesar salad & the french dip sandwich with coleslaw but the sandwich needs more meat. They also need to work on getting the food to come out at a consistent time and to prepare the food consistently. As for the bar, they have a pretty good selection of liquor as well as beer and wine, so if you like to drink, there should be no problem, except they don't have blue cheese olives (but you can make your own because they do have blue cheese crumbles). read more

This restaurant is so cool. The vibe is dope, i love all the open space and plants. The service has been good each time we've gone. The pizza is chefs kiss! tenders and salad also bomb! the chicken wings are mid tho. Overall it a good restaurant and i will be revisiting!! read more

Doughbird - pizza - Comfort Food Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

This place is great for a date night with a non adventurous eater. The fare is nothing daring but done deliciously, albeit a bit on the salty side. We started with a pitcher of the Sonoran summer sangria. This was a crisp, refreshing drink. Tasted more like a fancy lemonade. The pitcher was a bit small and a little too much ice but the flavor was perfect on a hot summer evening. The shishito peppers could have used a squeeze of lemon, but the sauce it was served with sure did live up to its umami name! I couldn't quite put my finger on what was in it but it didn't matter! It was amazing! I wanted to do shots of it! The shaved Brussels salad was nothing special. The lemon vinaigrette didn't come through at all. Just tasted like a creamy dressing, once again, nothing memorable. The dip sandwich was good, nothing fancy. Fries were straight forward. The pizza had tasty dough, nice crust. But the tomato sauce was very salty. The cheese helped cut through it a bit but the salt overpowered the tomato flavor which should be the star of the margarita pizza. We tried a side of Mac and cheese since some diners near us were raving about it. It is delicious. Creamy and rich! But definitely needs to be eaten with something to cut the richness. We were too full to have dessert but will be back soon to try the butterscotch cake. I suggest making reservations as the wait was an hour for two. Luckily we snagged two seats at the bar so we sat rather quickly. Pace of the meal was great. Huge patio but it is on the street side that faces the evening sun. Way too hot to eat out there in the summer heat. I think this impacted the waits for seating. They expected more people to choose the patio but it's probably not going to be a viable option in Tucson except in winter. Maybe if they enclosed it and added misters or a swamp cooler to help and would with the heat and would add more seating. Bartenders were super friendly and helpful with ordering. read more

First time trying this new restaurant in town and absolutely loved it! The outdoor patio is pet friendly. The staff was very friendly, made thoughtful suggestions and was very attentive. The menu has a bit for everyone. We shared the shaved Brussels salad which had a great dressing and the staff readily split it into two for us. We also tried the Detroit style crust which I can't say I've had before so have nothing to compare it to. Overall, I was surprised how light and airy the dough was. Excited to try their chicken options next time. read more

Genuinely just felt disrespected and unaccommodated places like this tend to treat the younger crowd properly because of assumptions that they won't tip well or are disrespect. I'm disappointed in Dober and their staff and honestly, I will not be eating here again. read more

We loved our experience at Doughbird. We came for Fathers Fay because my husband loves butterscotch and my dad loves peanut butter chocolate - both options on the desser menu. I had seen @realtimemomaz and @tucsonlocalista post about their dishes on Instagram so I was intrigued! My husband and I split a Detroit style pizza and wings. While we ordered teriyaki, we were given the dry rub wings which ended up being our favorite! The wings were crispy and flavorful - one of our top favorites in Tucson. The kids menu had plenty options for our picky eaters. I loved the selection of cocktails. My mom, sister, and I split a pitcher of the summer sangria - wine, apple, yuzu, and honey were the perfect refreshing combination. The butterscotch cake is a must try! I've been thinking of it ever since and plan to add Doughbird to the regular rotation. read more

Crowded on a Friday Night. 2hr wait inside, we sat on the patio. Damp with misters but tolerable. Chicken sandwich was good with lots of cheese. Chipotle Wongs must have been good the teenager didn't leave me any. A little pricey at $60 for 3 with one drink but good service, good food, and good addition to Tucson Food Scene. read more

I loved the vibe of the place! It was very cute and the staff were very friendly. I got the Blackberry Ricky, a non-alcoholic mock tail, and it was so good! Tart and minty like a mojito but no alcohol. Our server Liszt was amazing at filling up our drinks as soon as they emptied. I got the copper hat pizza and my husband got the prime rib dip with a side of mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese was pretty good. But the prime rib dip was bomb! Very flavorful and lots of meat. The copper hat pizza was super flavorful and packed with ingredients. We finished the night with the butterscotch cake. That was easily the best thing I have had all week! The hot cake with the crispy edges, the cold ice cream, plus the sauce? Amazing!! read more

I have no words because of how good it is. The pizzas: beyond amazing. My table got the Aviator and the Margarita pizza. Oh man, the desserts were straight fire. We also got buffalo wings and those beauties are the best wings I have ever eaten in my life. The interior is very neat and the bar was fancy. The people serving were also kind and chill like that. I would come back here over and over again, it's just great. read more

Such good food! We came here knowing nothing about it and were pleasantly surprised at the unique flavors. We got wings & the chicken tenders and fries. I got teriyaki wings and they were unlike any wings I've tried. The flavor was very citrusy and juicy. SO good! The tenders were basic, but the sauces are what made them delicious. We tried about 6 different sauces and each one wasn't what I expected. There was nothing basic about the sauces and each had a kick of a flavor that made it unique and delicious. Even the fries were just crinkle cut, but so crispy that even when they got cold they were still good. My only complaint was the slow service. We came on a Thursday night at 8pm and didn't get out until 9:20pm because our server kept disappearing and took forever to bring our check. We were one of the last ones out and it seemed like the staff was more interested in cleaning up than helping us out. Despite that, I still want to come back and try more items on the menu. read more

It would be nice to say we went there and they were delicious. However, we were there for a few and we were the only ones there. Other people walked in and got waited on first. I don't think they know what they're quite doing yet. Needless to say, we didn't get a chance to taste their food because they never could get to our table and we had to leave, not a good way to start a new adventure in fine dining.... read more

We got delivery from here - prime rib, whole chicken with polenta, and chicken wings. The food here is super tasty and we will definitely come back in person. I was super impressed with the chicken wings. However. The delivery was missing our polenta and I called the restaurant several times to ask for a refund. They offered a gift card which we never received which was disappointing. Seems like their delivery service is just a hindsight. Just wanted to update this review- we've gone in person and loved the vibe. It's super busy even on a Monday. Wait was 45 min without reservation but we were able to get bar seating right away. Food is better in person! read more

Cool ambiance- the lemon sauce for chicken is bomb! Friendly servers! Will be back to try the cocktails read more

SKIP IT!! That is my overall review of this place. It was our 1st, last an only time we will be eating here. It is WILDLY OVERPRICED. Service was mediocre. We had to get up from our table a couple of times to get our servers attention. As for the food, its OK. The Prime Rib dip was tiny for the almost $24. The Rotisserie Chicken was the only thing we ordered that didn't make us feel we were getting ROBBED, it was $22. 4 tiny chicken tenders cost almost $19 and an extra $1 for an extra sauce. They were cooked perfectly and tasted good, but so does Canes. We ordered an appetizer, truffle cheese bread and it was $14. It was fantastic. but again ridiculously small. It was about 5" × 7" piece sliced into 6 finger sized strips. Complete RIP OFF. You can argue all day that the quality is probably better, but when you walk out of a restaurant starving after you've paid more than $120 it's better to just buy your own ingredients and stay home. It's a NO. There are many, many, many other small business, upscale restaurants who do a better job and dont starve you. FEEDBACK FOR THE RESTAURANT DIRECTLY.... If you want to charge those prices, you really need to consider putting more food on the plate. read more

Following the formula here: Food: We had a Ingredient salad and a Barbecue Chicken salad. Both were kinda mushy, I asked for some seeds for the BCS to add just a hint of texture. You had to be on the lookout to find a small bit of chicken every now and then. Not sure why they named it Barbecue Chicken not much chicken and no taste of much of anything but onion which I asked them to put on the side so I could give it to my wife along with the cilantro and avocado. They did manage to separate the cilantro Wife had the IS and thought it was OK but did agree that her salad was also very limp. Looking at the $20+ pizza selection, I felt foolish asking if they had a smaller personal pizza when the Aviator arrived. Couldn't get much smaller and I guess they don't think mozzarella cheese needs to be in sufficient amount that you could taste it or give just a bit of chew. We shared the pizza and hardly ever have any left but the one piece that was left is still in the frig with the mushy salad leavings and I'm not sure the last time I had a piece of cold pizza last that long Mrs. said the iced tea was good but no refill offered until we were ready to leave. That brings us to service: I would say just on the indifferent side of not too surly sums it up. When I asked for a new fork, the server just sort of tossed a new bundle from another table my way . Ambiance: We ate outside which helped the lukewarm pizza get cold faster. Really nice flower planters gave a trendy ambiance to the view of the parking lot and the traffic noise from Campbell. So, I think I'm gonna go back and change this to one star. With an $11 tip (I don't tip on tax BTW- that's ridiculous, there should be a law!), 2 lackluster salads a very average pizza and 1 iced tea put $70 on the credit card which will make me wince one more time when the statement comes. read more

If you see Zach there pleaseee tell him he's great he's my dad and it would make his day but don't tell him about this review

Wanted to check out the hype. Best to have reservations as it appears to be busy all the time. We had the truffle bread, half a rotisserie chicken, chicken tenders, and pizza with black truffle, mushrooms, and arugula. Service was good. If I have to complain, I would say the mist sprays were too strong. Other than that, it was a good experience. read more

First time here. Our kids got us a gift card believing this was right up our alley. We brought a couple of friends along. I started with the frozen Pina Colada. It looked way better than it tasted. Hubby tried the chicken 3 ways and decided the roast chicken was the best. My tenders were okay, but most were very small. I'm glad I got the 10 piece, so there was enough to share. The veggies on top of the wings were tasty. We got the broccolini because you rarely see that served. Hubby didn't care for the sauce it was in. It was quite crowded for 2 PM on Saturday. Made conversation a little difficult. Would like to give this place another try, perhaps sample the pizza. read more

Wanted to love it. One would think that the "chicken is our main component', it should be stellar, delicious. It was terrible. Dry, inedible. What the heck, a chicken place? i got the chicken pot pie which had a spice that gave me adjada (italian) all night. really? If you're going to feature chicken, make the chicken stellar. How can you say chicken is the star ingredient when the chicken is dry and inedible? We're done. w read more

Love it. Good food, friendly service, kid and family friendly, clean and casual. Chicken strips are for adult too

The service was extremely poor which was odd because they were slow when we went with only a few other tables occupied. We were mostly ignored from getting our drinks, food, even our check. They took a long time to bring us our food as well. Very disappointing because the food was good. The Mozzarella Sticks were good, perhaps had a bit too much breading but was good overall. The Detroit Pizza was filling and good for two people to share. read more

Have to say I was insanely impressed. Have had one experience at the end of a long day of moving. Our server was on point. She touched our table immediately to greet us and let us know she'd be right back. It sounds simple but basic service standards like this are all but gone from nearly every other place I eat. Our drinks came and mine had several things floating in it, compromised ice was my guess. I was so impressed with the servers reaction and resolution of the issue. These things happen, for me it's how the issue is addressed that matters and these guys were pros about it. This visit was a while ago and I really wish I could remember the servers name On top of that, food was outstanding. I highly recommend this place! read more

Ordered here while on vacation and it turned into an excellent experience. I think every slice was devoured by the family. Also enjoyed the salad and soup. read more

Had the bourbon & bells cocktail and shishito pepper appetizer and both were delicious. The cocktail was very fresh, not too sweet, and you can taste the bell pepper. Had never had anything like it. The peppers were savory and so was the dipping sauce. Will come back to try some more items. read more

What an amazing happy hour they have! Small personal margarita, pizzas, which are bomb, sangria, pictures, truffle cheese bread, and many more things! they also have various Detroit style pizzas or square style pizzas, which are pretty crispy and usually have a great flavor profile! read more

Yesterday, we had dinner at Doughbird and it was fantastic. The Barbecue Chicken pizza with hand-stretched crust and the Modelo Especial beer was a perfect combination! Also Courtney, the hostess was very prompt in taking our orders and ensuring that our order came on time. Lastly, she kindly ask if we wanted dessert and we chose the Lemon Meringue Pie (with jam on the side). It was delicious! We plan to return and next item to try will be the Classic Chicken Pot Pie. read more

This place is amazing! I had a first date there. They told us it was 15 minutes for outdoor seating and an hour for indoor. We put our name down. Once they found out it was a date they "upgraded" us and gave us indoor seating after 20 mins! The food was delicious. We got the margarita pizza on regular crust and the GUAC and cheese appetizer. The server was superb and kept our drinks filled. Definitely going back. read more

Doughbird - Doughbird's Margarita pizza - Comfort Food Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Great place to go for groups. Food is really tasty. We went with a large group after a sorority meeting and the staff was amazing and so attentive. Food and appetizers were really good. The ambiance is nice as well. We ate out on the patio which was perfect but the inside was nice also. Only issue with the patio is that the sun will set on that side of the patio. The shades were broken on the day that we went to the restaurant. So those on the opposite side of the table were struggling for a bit while the sun went down. The staff was super helpful though and apologetic. read more

This is one of the BEST places I have been to in a while. It is so hard to find a place this great in tucson. My fiancé and I were celebrating our 6 year anniversary, and man I am so happy we chose this place. The food, service and drinks were excellent! Im not sure how to spell our waiters name, but his name was Ausin. EXCELLENT! Explaining the menu, the different wines and beers. I had Brussel Sprouts as an appetizer, and half a rotisserie chicken with cesar salad. Super delicious! My fiancé had the wings and pepperoni pizza. The pizza was the absolute best! My favorite thing of the whole night. The staff was very welcoming and the vibe was super chill. Definitely going again! read more

The food's not bad but it's not great either. I've eaten there twice and I find that it's good but kind of pricey. For instance last time I had a Caesar salad with chicken added and an iced tea and my total filled with tip came to almost $28. I had a larger better salad with more expensive ingredients at beyond bread yesterday and it came to 19 the salad tip and drink. read more
