We really enjoyed Lemongrass! We did family style, super yum! I highly recommend trying this out. It took quite a while for food, but it's worth it! The Naan is so soft and buttery, vegetables delicious I the sauces, soft but still slight crunch! I thought all 4 dishes We had were super flavorful! Not to mention the service. Outstanding!!! I am happy to come back! read more

We were just walking by and happened upon Lemongrass based on the amazing aromas outside. Otherwise we wouldn't have even seen it tucked in among other places on the street. It was worth the stop! The owner is friendly and he and his wife have a wonderful story. They are focused on truly healthy foods for everyone..veg, vegan, etc. you could eat Keto here too. I had an amazing chicken curry with their spinach based sauce...there are several meat/veg and sauce options to choose from. Immaculately clean. Fairly priced. Super fresh!!! I'll definitely be back Let's keep this gem open in Tucson!! read more

Amazing food and large portions! Plus the owner is very kind. Would definitely come back and recommend.

Delicious fresh, healthy food! Best Thai food in Tucson and very kind staff. Food is made to order and you can taste how fresh the ingredients are. Nice dining area. I highly recommend this spot and will be coming back soon!! The tofu curry and white rice noodle were incredible. read more

Decently delicious restaurant with healthy vegan options. The curry changes seasonally, so that's cool! The portion sizes are pretty small, I'd say (like just a one and some type meal... so it's a little pricey for that reason). The owners are very sweet and knowledgeable and the food was very well flavored. My only complaint on flavor was that the 'spicy' version was ... well, not spicy. So there's that. I would go back here for a light lunch or quick meal on a downtown adventure. Happy to have vegan options!!! read more

Lemongrass - Tofu curry - Organic Stores Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I had lunch here with two friends four days ago. The owner was friendly, but it took a long time to get our food. We all thought the food was on the bland side; I had ordered it medium, but it was very mild. It wasn't cheap, either. With a complete meal (entree, naan and rice pudding) plus a drink, my bill came to $31.15 (including tax and tip). read more

Superb!! 5 stars for greeting, friendliness, knowledge and helpfulness choosing a gluten-free entrée and dessert. 5 stars for transparency of staff wearing masks during preparation of food, ease of paying out, and cozy aesthetic of the restaurant. 5 stars for how delicious the food was, noting everything is made to order from scratch, and nice size portions (the platter is easily shared between two people). We definitely recommend supporting this local spot by dining in or by ordering your meal to-go. Street parking is available, no outdoor seating in front but there might be in back. 2 steps to gain access to restaurant, fyi for ADA. We recommend: Chicken Curry Platter Rice Pudding read more

Absolutely delicious curry with a homey taste. Not too heavy or too light. Great flavors - packed full of veggies. I would recommend getting it spicy (adds extra flavor without too much heat). I got the chicken curry combo, which comes with a rice pudding (one of my favorite desserts). Dessert came out on a tiny plate but was delicious (light, not too sweet). Other pluses for this restaurant include abundant indoor/outdoor seating and a super friendly owner/chef. He dropped by after to check in on us and chat. read more

I ordered take out. It was delicious . The coconut sauce is delicious and I asked for it spicy and it just has the perfect amount of heat . Food was so hot and fresh. Defintely give this place a try you won't regret it . read more

WOW! This place is an incredible hidden gem. I wish they had more locations closer to where I live. I appreciate the really heartwarming origin story of Dr. Tank (a world renowned geologist) the healthy menu full of organic gluten free options, and the wonderful service. All of the food we had was super delicious and I can't wait to order from here next time we are in town! read more

Updating to recommend the rice noodles! I chose chicken, wild rice noodles, coconut sauce and made it spicy. So delicious!!! read more

Lemongrass - Rice noodles - Organic Stores Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I'm giving this place 3 starts because for me and only my taste buds were not impressed! Not that the food was bad in any way; there was just no excitement for me. The owner was extremely friendly and service was fantastic. Please by all means give him a try at least once, that's what I did. read more

I like their tofu curry bowl and their tofu fried rice with veggies. The dish is good and it's interesting to know the guy who cooks your food and runs the restaurant used to cook this food in the field when he was doing his phd work. He still does phd work on the side at UofA. His wife also owns a shopping store down the street. This is the kind of place you go to if you want a story and context with the food you're eating. That's what makes it taste better. read more

I've heard good things about this place, so I picked up lunch from here today. I'm so happy that I did! One of the best pick up lunches that I've had! I called ahead, and was told how many dishes were to be made ahead of mine, and it was a 30-40 minute wait with 3 people ahead of me, which tells me that the owner truly takes his time, and prides himself in his dishes. I ordered the curry chicken, which was EXCELLENT!! Lots of flavor, lots of variety in the veggies! There were carrots, and bell peppers, and brussels sprouts, and cauliflower, onion! WOW!! It was a nice-sized portion, and I ordered a vegan dish for my friend, so when he wrapped it, he put the vegan dish on top, so that no chicken would end up dripping into the vegan dish - nice! The owner was very accommodating, and friendly, and I loved reading his story that's on the wall while I waited! Absolutely delicious!! read more

Delicious, fresh, and always friendly service. I love their section of different noodles and the salmon is always very good. Such a gem of Tucson! read more

Excellent, hot, freshly made food with very kind service. It seems to be a bit of a mix of Thai and Indian cuisines. REALLY GOOD!

We loved the food we ordered at Lemongrass and will definitely be going back. Also enjoyed talking to the owner about the restaurant.

Never realized this place was on 4th and so glad to know now because I plan on coming back often! I got the noodle with coconut milk base and chicken. Omg, SO flavorful and delicious!!! ‍‍‍ read more

This is clean, organic, scratch made, DELICIOUS food that we LOVE!! It is our go-to spot in Tucson. There is an interesting story behind the owner's experience of how he got into culinary arts. They put their heart and hard-working soul into the meals they prepare. I think about this place when I'm up north in the summer and can't wait for Arizona winters so I can return to Lemongrass, get take out and go watch the Arizona sunsets! The coconut curry and rice pudding is my fave, but no doubt everything is ridiculously delicious. We've had their smoothies too, which are YUM. I'm gluten free & dairy free and they accommodate perfectly & carefully. I always feel good after eating here, and DON'T see a 2# bump up on the scale afterwards because of water retention after eating out. :) The ambiance itself is better if you can eat outside, it's a good place for takeout... But the food quality is A+++. I always jack up my spice level when ordering here because it leans on the less spicy level****! So normally I get a 4/5, and here I ask for "extra, extra spicy". Go and enjoy great food at my favorite restaurant, and support a hard working owner who knows culinary science & art! Paying for parking on the street is worth it for this place. Don't judge it by the cover! And if you're lucky you'll find free parking on a side street. Enjoy! read more

The food is fresh, delicious and the service is 5-Star!! Additional words is a disservice Will definitely return anytime in Tucson read more

Read other reviews that said their meal was bland and unfortunately All too True. Ordered the Chicken curry which is pretty hard to screw up. I have been eating thai food for 40 years and I would not compare to any thai food I have ever had. Have never had a blander meal in my life sad to say. I ordered it medium spicy and if you closed your eyes you would Never Ever know it was really supposed to be Thai food. Was colorful but not tasty at all. Do not waste your money. read more

Met up with a good friend for "hope at the end of pandemic tunnel" celebration here. What I loved was that each dish was prepared when ordered and not before- having said that it took a while for food to come out but it only gave us time to chitchat and catch up so no big deal. I ordered the vegetarian stir-fried noodles. Delicious but on the bland side for me. I was hoping for a well seasoned vegetarian dish, although the dish was indeed well cooked it would fall short of well seasoned for me. The space is well organized and the Dr. Chef was very friendly. The prices are as it should be for quality ingredients. I hope to return and ask for better seasoned curry next time. read more

The guy who owns it is nice but I paid $32 dollars for rice noodles served on a paper plate. I am pretty surprised at the high reviews. This was one of the most no frills places I've been too in a long long time. They need to rethink this. read more

Very small restaurant on 4th avenue, food is delicious Nepali/Indian cuisine, the owner is very friendly and talks about his cooking style etc read more

My husband and I tried this restaurant today - it's phenomenal! So delicious, healthy, and amazing service!! Very relaxing ambiance. The owner and waiter were so friendly - they give the best recommendations based on your food preferences. We tried the vegetarian lentil patties and vegetarian paneer noodles in coconut/tomato sauce. So so tasty AND healthy. Highly recommend, definitely will be back soon! read more

I love supporting this small business! The food is hearty and flavorful. It's always worth the wait; there's usually only 2 people in the kitchen, the owner and his wife! Delicious every time. read more

Got an Eggplant Mushroom Platter with Coconut Tomato sauce and basmati rice- it was delicious - I was sad when it was gone. The flavorful sauce was not spicy but they offered to make it spicy. Veggies were perfectly cooked. We tried ordering with different sauce and rice, but the man working urged us to try a different combo of ingredients instead. I'm glad he helped us order - my suggestion is they should have suggested for dish, rice, and sauce combos so customers know what goes well together. Staff was very friendly and helpful and sanitary. Clean dining area with nice patio as well. Himalayan Hot Tea was perfect for the chilly weather. read more

The best organic Food! Owners are servants of the Customers. Eat here you I will not be disappointed highly recommend read more

Seriously just go eat there! Damn this food is good quality, perfectly spiced, great portions and a very nice gentlemen cooking.

Food was super good. Owner was very friendly and welcoming. The indoor seats have nice venting air conditioning and they also have a spacious patio in the back! This is def a local business that I would keep supporting! I recommend it!! read more

Not for me. Two stars for owners effort. Went with four people one of the orders was entirely wrong. Did not send back because they can only cook a few plates at a time and everyone else would have already been halfway through their meal. read more

What a wonderful find! Fresh food and flavors-we just love this place. Support locally, healthy food! read more

Wonderful flavors, simple presentation and satisfying meal. Exactly what I was looking for.

Ehhhh can't comment about food, but zero stars for service. Update and post correct hours because its very inconsiderate to waste people time. read more

Definitely recommend this place. Owner was more than welcoming and food was amazing. Six of us went in hungry and left with a full stomach and great food. read more

A tucson gem, hidden in plain sight off a corner of 4th ave. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a cozy spot to peacefully enjoy a high quality meal. It's a small location run by a lovely family, so I would recommend this spot for dining alone, or keeping it to a few friends. You must be unpretentious about about atmosphere and presentation, there isn't much flair but I rather enjoy that. All of the emphasis is placed on delivering a tasty and nourishing meal. Plates are served on paper, with plastic spoons, no fuss no muss. I have always leave feeling the full satisfaction of a meal cooking with love. read more

Lemongrass - This was the chicken curry combo meal. We were so excited to eat, we forgot to take a picture. Made the clean plate club! - Organic Stores Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

We had just arrived in Tucson from the Bay Area. It was around 7-7:30 in the evening and when I got there it was packed. When I got up to the counter, the guy said that we would have to wait for an hour and a half for the food. He said that he was short staffed. So we decided to try another day. The next afternoon we called for take out, during lunch. After a long wait, we finally got the food and it was completely tasteless. I'm not even kidding but it literally was the worst tasting restaurant food I had ever tried. To be fair, we ordered it "mild." So that may have been part of the issue? I'm surprised that there are so many good reviews on here because it was terrible. We were a party of 4 people and no one was impressed. I so, so wanted to support a restaurant that had all of the perks such as being organic, having gluten free options, and vegan options. There are so few restaurants that have all three. Oh yeah, also it was my first time eating Nepalese food. Maybe all of that food tastes that way? I'm familiar with Himalayan food and love it, so I kinda doubt it. The man who owns the restaurant is a gem. So maybe the reviews were in support of him? Good luck read more

Food came as described! Nan is delicious, try it with the pudding atop. and spicy is SPICY .

I have been here twice now and the food is delicious! I've had the tofu curry and the mushroom eggplant combo, which came with rice, naan, and rice pudding. More than enough for me--I had plenty to share with my partner, who ordered a noodle dish. read more
