Update !!! My daughter's food was served SO HOT , she has a huge burn mark on her forearm from touching the bowl ! Insane you'd serve food so hot someone could get a serious burn like this ! See photo ;

Sitting the bar. Good place to sit.

Monday night downtown and this place is open when it seems that everything is closed. Sat at the bar and had Skip take care of me. I love this place. Beautifully decorated. Nice upbeat music in the background. Started with crispy egg rolls with a side of Sirachi. Most definitely the way to go. I learned that I eat egg rolls all wrong. But, they give you more lettuce, veggies, and vermicelli that you could possibly cram around 4 egg rolls. But try anyways... Lesson learned. Eat egg rolls right. Reasonably good selection of sake with more of a slant towards unfiltered. Their menu is just slightly out of date as of this moment with a new one coming out next week. So, went with Shaken beef again. Trying hard to not order the same thing every time. Firecracker Shrimp isn't a player anymore. Wasn't disappointed and the left overs eat well cold out of frig ... except that I ate all. I really should stop working out in the morning. Eat here !!!

A beautiful restaurant atmosphere! Very gorgeous restaurant store design with their signature blossoms tree in the middle of the restaurant and beautiful bar makes for a romantic, classy vibe. I was craving Vietnamese food while out here, and am very glad I found Saigon Blossoms. I had the Bun Bo Hue (BBH) and it was absolutely delicious. It was a big bowl of perfectly chewy noodles with tons of meats. They do not serve it with the blood or pork feet, but this is exactly how I would've ordered it. The soup was a bit spicy from the chili oil but it was so good! It also doesn't come with its original variety of banana leaves on the side but they do give you some veggies and sauces (meant for pho) along with your dish. One thing I might add is, it is a very, VERY big bowl of soup/noodles. I really wish they had a bigger spoon because it felt like it took me forever to eat; I usually love to do a spoon full of noodles, soup, and a bit of the meat in every bite, but with the spoon here, it was quite an impossible feat. I asked for a different spoon, but it was just as small. I did end up taking most of it home to finish. My server was very nice! And was quite attentive. I would like to come again if I'm ever in the area.

Glad to see something I haven't seen in Tucson, the short rib pho. When eating pho with family, I love adding a short rib or oxtail to my pho. This is a nice addition to their menu. The pho was pretty good as usual. The service was OK today. I'm guessing the bar tender had a lot going on? Saigon Blossoms is a cool spot downtown. Glad to see the new menu.

Blossom Bun Bowl with Grilled Shrimp

I had an impossible mission to find a cute and trendy restaurant in Tucson on a Monday that had reservations after eight and Saigon blossoms answered my prayers. Their lobby and main restaurant wasso adorable with all of the blossom trees. We each grabbed a cocktail and an entrée and safe to say this was an awesome find downtown.

Fabulous Dining Room with cherry blossoms to escape to from the heat outside, only to heat up again on large soup cauldrons. Well one of us did that, only I ordered wrong thinking the shrimp pork dumplings in chicken broth with egg noodles was a new one on me, Mi Hoanh Thanh Dao Biet $19. SO WRONG, that would be Wonton Noodle Soup, duh?! Dang it, while perfectly good enough, did not fix my Viet hankering for 'Pho'. Easily made 2 meals, about 10 tasty wontons, in mild broth that seem to taste better as it aged a day in the fridge. The Hubs was even less adventurous with his Salmon with curry sauce rice, Salmon Xa Ca Ri $26. Again good enough, healthy portion salmon 6-7oz guessing farm raised, asparagus and squash with a coconut curry sauce that could be doubled for a rounded bowl of rice..blah blah blah. Bia Saigon $6 for a 12 oz was bright, a light lager with medium body...the best thing we ordered haha but that was entirely on us. Food is fresh and tasty on busy First Art Saturday, and will have another go at ordering the real deal Viet next visit and check out Weekday Happy Hour 4-6P :D

This was our second visit to Saigon Blossom. The food was amazing again (I dream of their orange chicken), but unfortunately, the service was disappointing. Our first visit was 5s at the bar. After being seated at a table underneath the epic blossoms, we ordered two appetizers, but only one arrived. When we asked about the dumplings, our server then informed us they were out. We also had to ask whenever we needed water and later had to request our bill. When we asked for to-go boxes, he did package our leftovers nicely. I'm not sure whether the restaurant was understaffed or our server was new, but the service was not as attentive as we are used to receiving when visiting downtown Tucson. I also tried to make a reservation online, but the system showed no available times. When we arrived around 6:00 p.m., however, hoping to be able to at least sit at the bar since they appeared to be so busy online, the restaurant was almost empty on a Saturday. A better-functioning reservation system might help bring in more patrons. The food is definitely worth returning for, and I hope the service and reservation experience improve. I can only give 3 s this time unfortunately.

THE BEST happy hour deal I've ever seen. Thursday thru Sunday 4-7, most apps are half off. It was dead tonight, Sunday evening, and the entire bar was empty. I ordered spring rolls and my dining companion had the egg rolls and chicken skewers. The food came out right after ordering and was super good. Even though the menu has shrunk with the change in ownership, the inside is the same, still gorgeous. I'll be returning sooner rather than later.

We went here for an early dinner on a Saturday night after Tour de Tucson. Luckily this beautiful restaurant is right in downtown, a short walk from AC hotel. It was pouring right when we got inside so we got lucky! I was actually surprised to find such a big and beautiful Vietnamese restaurant right smack in the middle of downtown Tucson. So far, Tucson is very impressive to me with its food and coffee scene, and of course, arts! Saigon Blossoms reminds me of few places in SoCal, where the restaurant is super classy but it turns into a lounge with live DJs and dancing at night. There is a huge cherry blossom tree in the middle of the place and the place is beautiful and super clean. We were starving so we ordered a few hearty dishes. Pho combo, spring rolls, gyoza, salmon plate, and orange chicken plate. Everything was so good and I was very impressed with their spring rolls and Pho!! The spring rolls have delicious pork belly and shrimp. The pork bellies were in thick cut, which is something rare nowadays even in Westminster, CA. The Pho has such a great flavor and the meat were good. The broth was good and I have to say, pretty authentic for being in the middle of Tucson!! Overall, we were all so happy with our dinner. Service was excellent and prompt. Highly recommend!

First time at Saigon Blossoms and we had a wonderful experience. The outside plants and all the decor inside was very beautiful. The cherry blossom tree inside was my favorite. We had the lettuce wraps and steak. They were both amazing but we weren't a fan of the peanut sauce. Our waitress got our order right away and brought our food and waters very fast.

I love Miss Saigon and this on is super nice and fancy! I think one of the best things about here is the happy hour and the prices that go along with it. The pho ga was really tasty and full of meat. I really enjoyed the broth that it came with and definitely not the same that I usually get when I order the same dish at other Vietnamese restaurants. Still very good! Did you get a bit crowded so we sat at the bar which we don't mind because the bartenders are very attentive to us. If you're downtown and looking for a good Asian/Vietnamese dish and this is your spot.

This's the lunch specials on weekdays only for smaller bowl n appetizers... but it's still to make me full... Spicy noodles is good tasty n delicious.... Just the rice noodles were too soft... a little more Al Dente is the best!! Egg Rolls n Springs Roll were good tasty!! Overall it's very good in the area!! Services were excellent n grooming well!! The decorations of design is always good on elegant!!

Made a reservation and was seated immediately upon arrival. Staff was nice and all helping each other out. I love the Wings tossed in jalapeño sauce, so had to get those. And we tried the potstickers too. We had a Paloma to drink and got the sizzling beef (it was not sizzling like last time), we also got the shaken beef ... all yummy

On a recent trip to Tucson, I drank my way through quite a few bars. Out of the bunch, Juniper was…read moreone of my favorites. Located downtown, I found free street parking and then walked over an hour before close on a Tuesday. Ambiance (4.5/5): Juniper gives off speakeasy vibes without being a speakeasy. Elegance and sophistication without being stuffy. There's a long bar and some small tables. I sat at a table. The bar is clean and there's a cool wheel in the middle of the bar that lists out all of the herbs, fruits, and other garnishes that are often used in cocktails. Service (4/5): The bartender started off well, greeting me promptly and then asking for my order after I had looked over the menu for a few minutes. Later on, she went outside and smoked a cigarette for a bit which you probably shouldn't do if you're the only bartender working. That delayed my second drink a bit. All good though, she let me stay after close to finish my drink. Food (N/A): To my knowledge, they don't have food. I had dinner prior. Drinks (5/5): Juniper is Tucson's only gin cocktail lounge. That means gin is what's for dinner. If you're not a gin drinker, probably not your spot. If you do like gin, as I do, you'll be impressed with the significant collection they have. There's an interesting list of creative craft cocktails. That's where I started my night. From there, I picked out a bottle of gin, and had the bartender fix me a simple cocktail with it. I don't think I've ever been to an exclusively gin bar prior to Juniper. Cool spot!

Parking is a bear. Plan to use a nearby garage or even better, ride share since you will be drinking

Located downtown, this unique bar is inside a boutique hotel. Since it's downtown, street parking is your best bet (free at night). Ambiance (4.5/5): This is part of where Unicorn Zebra shines. Definite animal theme going with some cool status and decor. It's modern, trendy, and a little out there. Which makes for a cool experience. The main bar is relatively small. 10 seats or so at the bar and a couple of tables. What you won't immediately realize is that if you go up the stairs in the lobby of the hotel, you'll get to a second level of the bar. This is more of a lounge with comfortable seating and board games. I got to enjoy both. Service (4/5): Two bartenders were working, even though it's a small bar, which is always appreciated. I ordered one cocktail. I was greeted promptly, my order was taken quickly, prepared, and she ended up closing me out without me asking since they were closing soon. Solid overall. Food (N/A): I had dinner prior to stopping by. I didn't notice whether they offer food or not. Drinks (5/5): I have a lot of cocktails in my day (typing this with my chest puffed out). After many years of visiting countless watering holes, I will say that Unicorn Zebra has one of the most unique cocktails I've tried in my life. It was so out there that I was unsure whether or not I should try it. I even asked the bartender about it. I'm happy I took the plunge. Let me paint a picture for you. Vodka infused with basil, buffalo mozzarella, and tomatoes. Served with two cherry tomatoes as garnishes... yup! If it sounds disgusting to you, just trust me. It tastes like a Margherita pizza in liquid form. So glad I tried it as it was hands down not only unique, but one of the best cocktails I've ever sipped on. Thank you Unicorn Zebra for a memorable experience!

We'd heard good things about this place and have been trying to support local downtown bars this summer, so we stopped in around 11 on a Friday night before heading home. As we sat down, we watched the bartender be pretty dismissive toward another group at the bar, so we were already a little unsure. We started talking about the decor because we liked the eclectic vibe. We jokingly pointed out that one of the pictures had a joint instead of a cigarette because someone in our group hadn't noticed. One of the bartender's first comments back, completely seriously, was, "I'm from San Diego. Have you never seen art before?" Honestly... what? It was such a weird, unnecessarily condescending response. I brushed it off at first as awkward banter, but it was a really strange first impression. The drinks were decent. The Loverlist was really good, and the Unicorn Fluff and Old Fashioned were fine. The bartender was quick to talk up their whiskey selection, but when we asked for a recommendation, she mostly gave reasons why she couldn't recommend anything and just kept saying they had "over 90 different options." Without a whiskey menu to look through, that wasn't especially helpful. We also asked for a shooter and were offered half of a cocktail instead. That would've been totally fine on its own, but combined with everything else, the service just never felt welcoming. We ended up leaving pretty quickly. I'd give the place another shot because the atmosphere is fun and has a lot of potential, but hopefully with a different bartender behind the bar.

I've never had a soft taco feel this elevated. The flavor was beautifully balanced -- as if every ingredient had been measured with intention so they could come together and deliver the exact deliciousness they were aiming for. The carne and the other ingredients were cut into similarly small pieces, giving each bite a clean, even texture. And the zig‑zag of fresh guac across the top didn't just add richness; it made the whole thing look brighter, fresher, and more inviting. It's a testament to the idea that you don't have to complicate a simple dish like a carne asada taco to elevate its flavor. Simple, fresh, authentic Sonoran ingredients will do it.

Your best bet is finding street parking (which was free since I arrived pretty late). I sat at the bar. Ambiance (4/5): Sonora Moonshine is a good looking bar and restaurant. There's a pretty spacious patio out front. And a pretty small bar inside, along with some seating. The ambiance is trendy and comfortable. Service (4/5): The bartender did a decent job taking care of me. It wasn't busy at all. There was a group of two people outside, me, and that's it. She could have done a better job checking in and being more attentive, but given the number of people that were there, it wasn't tough to get a hold of her. A nice touch that Sonora does is they have postcards that you can fill out. They will send it out for you free of charge. Drinks (4/5): Sonora has an interesting list of craft cocktails, many of them with a focus on Mexican spirits including tequila, mezcal, and sotol. I tried two cocktails and they were both good. They even have a "basura" drink that's served in a plastic bag... pretty funny! Food (4/5): Sonora's menu isn't large, but it's an interesting one. I ended up going with the queso fundido which is a Mexican cheese blend with birria. The cheese is served on a hot platter and it's stretchy. You have tortilla chips that you use to scoop up some of the cheese. While not a huge portion, it was exactly what I wanted. Traditionally, it's served plain or with chorizo. Birria here is a nice touch. Pro tip: They have a speakeasy in the basement that's open several nights a week.
