    Bbq wings. Hardly any sauce. Honey hot wings also hardly any sauce. Then my sweet potato fries burnt.

    My first time ever trying this place. Not impressed. My sweet potato fries were burnt and my wings did not have much sauce on them. They were also dry so I couldn't finish eating them. I did a take out order. I had to find a waitress in order to see where I pick up my order.

    We were first greeted by Andy behind the bar who makes a delicious margarita! He recommended several food items and told us each nightly event. I had the Sam's classic and it was the best burger I've had in a very long time! We also had the club with was huge and also very delicious! It was nice and cold in the restaurant which was a perfect escape from the Tucson heat! Great place! Go see Andy!

    We went there because kids wanted to go and it had been awhile. We had sliders, quesadillas, Rueben, & chicken sandwich. Food was good, drinks were cold, & service was fast.

    I  absolutely love the sandwiches!!! My go to bar food that I recommend to anyone...

    My favorite!!! I always wanna try dessert but... after the food I'm always to full...

    We always bring their lunch so they can join us.

    Beautiful day on the patio. Food and service is always great here. The prices are good, we love the atmosphere on the patio and the dogs are always comfortable!

    We went here for the Crawfish Festival this past Saturday. We did not have tickets ahead of time since they were sold out but got there at 1pm, got right into line, and were able to be seated by 2pm. Fortunately they had plenty of seating inside the restaurant since it was so hot outside. I love the live band and dancing and the idea behind everything. Unfortunately, the portion size was ridiculously small. If you've had crawfish before, you know that there is very little meat in each one. Therefore you normally get a huge pile of them or several pounds. As you can see in my picture, the portion was tiny and maybe the size of an appetizer, not worth $20. It can with a tiny corn on the cob, cold sausage and a tiny coleslaw.

    I decided to revisit Trident, as it has been a few years. I usually go to another establishment,…read morebut we all need to venture out of our usual places now and again. I was greeted by the bartender who was SUPER friendly and made me feel very welcome. There were others at the bar that asked if I needed a seat at the bar. Very cool vibe. Sports bar vibe....with a family friendly place as well. The second bartender that relived the first one was..nice and friendly, but I did not get that "happy your here "feeling. I ordered the HH cod tacos with slaw, avocado lime sauce, and salsa. They were so good!! The blend of the fresh fish with the slaw....YUMMY. The fish was perfectly cooked. Crisp and not greasy, and so flavorful. I wondered why they delivered a bunch of napkins and ....a few bites in I realized. All over the face, and dripping down the chin....good!! :-) I got a burger to go, with added green chilies. I asked for rare, and I got medium to medium well. Sad panda, but it is still a good burger. I just really love to taste the burger at a rare temp. I also asked for a cup of the gumbo. My first bite was SO salty. I don't know if it was in storage or not fresh, but it was a salt lick. Could not taste the flavor past the saltiness. Good locals place, and prices are reasonable. I appreciate a Veteran owns the establishment and since I am a Veteran as well....I will always support Veteran owned!!

    The good news: portion sizes are quite large, and their fries are wonderful…read more The bad news: be careful before ordering an appetizer, you probably won't finish your entree. We had to try the deep fried pickles (excellent, they are spears not chips), but I had to leave most of my fries behind. Also be aware that the sound level can be pretty high making it hard to carry on a conversation without shouting. Service was snappy and efficient - our drinks were kept full. Atmosphere is bar-like with a see-through kitchen. My wife had the fish & chips - excellent. I had the Captain's platter which is a little bit of everything. The shrimp were to die for. The one downside is everything came fried in the same batter & oil, so everything starts to kinda taste the same. We'll be back the next time we get a craving for deep-fried seafood!

I appreciate their willingness to ensure we have a great experience. Service: The gentlemen that was serving us was nice and attentive. He was also quick on the orders of food which I was very excited about! Food: All the food was delicious as always. I ended up getting the same thing I did last year as I had dreams about the chicken taco's, heh. Decided to try a few other items in the mean-time and it did not disappoint. Value: It is a bit expensive as most places are, but I'd say the price is fair and considering all the cost being totaled and split with a group, it's not to bad. From a value standpoint, if you are paying all alone it's definitely on the pricier side of things, but if you splitting the bay cost its not bad at all. We had 2 hours of fun with lots of laughs and good food. Recommendation: If you're looking for something fun and want to show off your skills! This is the place to be, whether your subpar or an expert, there's something for everyone here, and I think most of all the food and the service makes the experience fun. Will be back! Thank you.
