We stumbled upon this place while visiting from out of town, and we were so impressed, we might actually come back during our short 3-night stay! They start you off right: Great chips accompanied by two different salsas that were both fresh and very tasty--a great sign of what's to come! For the main event, the Surf and Turf Tacos were absolutely amazing. We also ordered the Guacamole, which was spot on and delicious. This is definitely high-quality Mexican food. The only slight critique is that the layout of the restaurant was a little confusing when we first walked in, but that was quickly forgotten once the incredible food arrived. The complex the restaurant is in is very nice! read more

I'm a fan of Seis Kitchen since its first location opened at the Mercado San Augustin. This River location was such a beautiful spot because they had an actual dining room, bar and large area for groups. My team at work would meet early to celebrate once or twice a year, in their patio. On this occasion my husband and I wanted to celebrate Mothers Day and due to our schedule, Monday dinner we came in at 5pm. I love the open space and generally you order food at the counter and your food comes to the table. On this trip there is a new option of sitting at tables with no number, but an orange card displayed where they offer table service. I'm not sure how this works because they are usually busy. At Seis Kitchen there is a variety of proteins including: cod, mahi mahi, shrimp, chicken tinga, chicken pobil, al pastor, carnitas, birria, and more. Today the menu, which usually is on the wall was only in menu form. Seis Kitchen has expanded their menu and are showcasing their bar menu. Most of the time I get a taco plate with my choices size which are beans smashed beans, rice, Casitas, or an upgraded side salad. They also have chimichanga's,quesadillas burritos, and nachos. They have a kids menu as well. My mom and I love their chips and salsa. They roast chiles and tomatoes daily for their fresh green and red salsas. The problem can be, over eating the complementary chips and then jonsing for more chips n salsa before your order arrives. My last trip to Seis Kitchen my mom and I ordered nachos and then filled up on their homemade chips and homemade salsa. On any given day they offer two agua fresca flavors, and horchata. I love their agua fresca options and as much as I love a good margarita; my love for lemonade and limonada is greater. With the many places to enjoy Mexican food in Tucson, Seis Kitchen has been a top place for gatherings and meeting with groups. Other good options in Tucson are loud or more frantic. All Seis Kitchen locations with dining rooms seem to have a spa like relaxing vibe. The original is a walk up space at the Mercado an so crowded and noisy. The food here is great, and our Mother's Day belated dinner was a great success. Please check out this location off River Road in Tucson. read more

We love this place! Kick off happy hour here with a plate of (the best) nachos and a pitcher of margaritas. Then, order some delightful tacos and you MUST try the Mexico City Style Quesadilla. The restaurant is clean, well maintained, and they offer full service now (you can sit down and have a server come to your table), or you can order, take a number, and wait for your food. I prefer the latter, and the service has always been fast and friendly! There is indoor and outdoor seating. read more

This location is a walk up and order then pick your own table location. They have tables both indoor and on the patio. We sat on the patio which was so convenient with a baby. I ordered the mini chimis and ceviche. The mini chimis are flavorful and delicious. The ceviche had large chunks of shrimp which was nice versus the standard small chopped shrimp. It was fresh and so good! I wish there were a little more spice in their salsas, but overall the flavors were awesome. We will be back! read more

Seis Kitchen - Birria Flautas* Guacamole App 6oz* Fajitas* - Mexican Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Friend and I had been wanting to try Seis. We met for lunch. Walking in, it's not clear that one has to order their food from the counter. There was an Asian family, who walked in after us, who had no clue what to do. Finally a server went to them and helped them figure it out. Better signage would be helpful. The place was really loud (something on the ceiling to help mute the noise?). The server that took our orders had a really hard time making eye contact. Friend ordered the shrimp tacos with rice; I ordered the chicken tacos with calabacitas as a side. More confusing was that there were numbered stanchions on some of the tables, with stanchions also sitting on the ordering counter. We had to tell the no eye-contact server what table we wanted, with no idea what numbers were on each table - confusing. We sat down and a server brought us chips and salsa, The salsas were okay, typical for many Mexican restaurants. We waited around 15 minutes to get our food (the table next to us had theirs in 5-7 minutes). The food was delicious! My chicken was grilled, tender and moist. Friend's shrimp were cooked perfectly. The tacos had lots of cheese and cabbage on them. The calabacitas were tender but a bit bland. Friend said the rice was good. For the price, it was an appropriate amount of food. We'll go back, now that we know how the place operates. read more

I finally tried Seis on river, I usually frequent the location at the Mercado. This one is nice, but I still prefer the ambiance at the Mercado. The menu is exactly the same. I had the ensalada mixto with creamy cilantro dressing and grilled shrimp added. It was huge and just delicious! We also had chips and salsa with red and green salsas! There was enough salad for me for dinner also! You place your order at the window and get a number to have your food brought out. Seis is expanding and it's a good thing! read more

Delicious as usual! This time I split a burrito which was a better amount of food. Everyone enjoyed their food! I ordered the coffee and had free refills which was fun - self-serve. I don't particularly enjoy their specialty coffee options so this time I didn't order it and felt better about the whole thing. However, I do wonder why you are prompted to tip when the only server aspect is walking the food to your table the first initial time. Overall, a good experience, but heads up don't tip much because there aren't servers. read more

Consistently one of the best Mexican restaurants in Tucson. Their margs and tacos both tasted really good and were very filling. Can be a bit pricey ($7 for one taco) but I think it's worth it. read more

Roger and I love Seis, great service, wonder ambiance and of course the food. Going tonight early and can't wait.

We frequent this location and the one at the Mercado often. This location is great because they have indoor seating and a full bar, plus chips and salsa are included with your meal! The food is consistently good, and comes out quickly. A great local place that we are excited to see expanding! read more

We decided to have a semi-indulgent lunch and ordered some sangria and salad. I ordered the Ensalada Rustica, which had greens, cabbage, queso fresco, pepitas, sliced radishes, pico de gallo, black beans and fire-roasted corn, with the ancho-lime vinaigrette. I added the chicken (called poc chuc). It was a very generous salad and very filling, but I thought, a tad light on the chicken, especially since I paid to add it. The sangria was delicious! Ordering was easy at the counter and we were directed to a pre-numbered table. Complementary chips and salsa were soon delivered. All staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. One little tip to the restaurant though, if diners are sitting next to the glass doors, you might want to wait to spray cleaner all over them, which wafted heavily our way and onto our food. Other than that, the inside was lively, but not so much that we couldn't converse. read more

I love Seis Kitchen! This location does have longer waits for the food to be prepared as they seem to often be shortstaffed. The last time I got takeout from this location the fish was dry and not so fresh tasting. But the coffee horchata never disappoints and parking is always available! read more

After eating at the downtown Seis Kitchen, I was eager to try the other outlets. Big difference in quality of the food between the St Agostin market cafe and the River and Campbell store. Service took forever at 7pm on a Sunday night. We finally had to go up to the counter and ask what was going on after waiting 30 minutes. When the food did come, the tortillas completely fell apart and we received the black beans instead of the refried ones we ordered. Servers disappeared. Downtown restaurant uses real utensils and this one offered us plastic which we did have to use to eat the tacos. I haven't tried the other outlets so don't know how they compare but the downtown version is certainly far above the River one. read more

The downfall of Seis is a Tucson tragedy. Seis had the best tacos in town pre-covid, but after the pandemic they leaned into a "high volume, low quality" business model. Now they have 4 locations, but the food is awful. I dared to try again in 2026 and it was worse than ever. Greasy meat, excessively salty chips and beans, no pineapple in the al pastor (al pastor = pork+pineapple, everywhere except Seis apparently). The ambiance is nice and the service is good; it's a pleasant location to eat. But the soul and flavor are completely gone, sadly. RIP 2010s Seis. read more

We love this neighborhood restaurant! My favorite is the Mexico City Quesadilla and Prickly Pear Margarita. My hubby has tried a variety of dishes and hasn't been disappointed yet! El Capitan may be his go to!! Everyone is friendly and welcoming. You can enjoy outdoor dining with a cool fire pit or sit inside at a full service table or order your food at the counter. A LOT of people do To-Go read more

Amazing food and great service and atmosphere. The tacos are to die for and love their horchatas!

Love going to Seis for fish tacos! Enjoy the nice grilled (not fried) yellowtail tacos with a HUGE side salad. Guilty pleasure: their great guacamole and chips! Weather-permitting, enjoying lunch outside on the patio is really nice. Inside can get noisy, but still not bad (and in summer, it's a little quieter, as there are fewer diners). Sometimes there's a wait, but it's worthwhile. Worth noting that staff are friendly and pleasant as well! read more

The nachos here. The best nachos I have genuinely had the honor of eating. Amazing balance of creamy and fresh, which the perfect universal chip just holds so well. The ambience is lively and they had wonderful music on Saturdays at their outdoor location. They are attentive and make sure everything is to your liking. Cannot visit Tucson without coming here read more

Good service. Pretty good ambience. Burrito was a 8/10 and tacos were like a 3/10. A little bit pricey but each food item is just a hit or miss read more

Seis Kitchen - Surf & Turf burrito - Mexican Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Always fresh, always good, always top quality ingredients! Only negative is none of their salsas are all that spicy. However I could not recommend their Mexico City style quesadilla more! It always impresses me every single time I eat it, which is a rare experience for me. Always pretty clean at this location with a nice ambiance, however does tend to either be packed or slow, so you have to know when to hit it. I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea and is a little on the pricier side but a worth while spot to try while you're in Tucson! read more

I was told the fish tacos were lightly breaded and fried. When they arrived they were thick with very very dark brown batter, having been obviously deep fried in very old oil, way overdue for discard. In addition, this old heavy brown oil soaked fully into the two corn tortillas the fish sat in. All batter removed, if there were 2 oz of fish underneath all that, I wouldn't bet on it. This is quite a nose dive from when they opened. I wouldn't serve those fish tacos to the alley cat let alone patrons. read more

Overall the food was okay, nothing really blew our skirts up, but it was fine. I ordered the quesadilla with birria, tortilla was fantastic and so was the birria, but most of the meat was stuck to a giant piece of burnt cheese in the middle so I just ate the tortilla. Drinks and chips were good as well as the churros! Friendly service and really cute inside. read more

This was my very first Mexican restaurant I tried in Tucson while I was visiting looking for a place to live (realtor's office is in the same plaza) and I was so impressed back then. 3 years later, I went back with my friends from out of town. To be honest this wasn't our first choice but the wait was too long at the first choice restaurant so we came here. I totally regretted it and wish I took my friends elsewhere. Food took sooooooooooo long even though it wasn't that busy, which was frustrating because 1. We had a plan afterward and 2. If we were going to wait for this long, we could have waited in the line at the other restaurant and their food would have been much better. Once we got the food, they were all mediocre at best. The only thing I loved was their watermelon cucumber agua fresca. read more

Terrible. I have been to seis about a dozen times over the last two years and they have continually gone down hill. The North Tucson location is slightly better. Fish taco- super fishy . Perhaps spoiled Avocado taco- too much batter and old oil. It was inedible due to the old oil Chicken Tinga taco- chewy chicken Aqua Fresca- all pulp Nachos- old chips. Stale. It was horrible. Do not go here. read more

We always enjoy eating at one of Seis Kitchen's locations. The food is always fresh and delicious, the atmosphere is contemporary and clean and the service is friendly. At all Seis locations you order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. During this visit we enjoyed various tacos and burrito meals. The black bean sides were very good. We will definitely keep coming back. read more

We had one order of the crispy biria tacos and two orders of chicken taquitos. Those who had the taquitos said they were really good but I thought the biria tacos were ordinary. However, the only others I have had were homemade so it may not be a fair comparison. This was our first visit so I would say the jury is still out on the food. The staff was very friendly and attentive...give them an A. Unfortunately, we were in there after 1 on a week day when it was maybe a third occupied and it took almost an hour to get our order...D- would be generous. But again one visit, so maybe it was an off day. Ambience? None. You order food at the counter like Chipotle. They do bring it to your table but you'd have to decide for yourself if cafeteria style qualifies as ambience. Worse, the noise was terrible and as I mentioned, it was only a third full. We sat on the patio and at first I thought it was fan noise. Upon further inspection, the fans were off. I couldn't tell for sure, but there was some kind of a unit over the garage size door between the inside and patio that had a constant loud hum...well, way louder than a hum. I don't know if it was a big exhaust fan to clear kitchen fumes or what, but it we could not carry on casual conversation at a normal volume. Hard to imagine the racket if it had been busy. Then there is price. Over $60 with water for beverages for lunch seemed exorbitant for a notch above fast food, but maybe that is the state of the world these days. read more

My first time at this location. It is clean and festive. Service was friendly and prompt. I had the carne asada burrito enchilada style and it was presented very well. But it could have used a bit more carne asada. The guacamole and chips were very tasty and overall I would return to this location. read more

This place was a spontaneous post V-day outing since we didn't have a date night on the day. It is so cute inside and the person who took our order was super friendly. The prickly pear lemonade was tasty to me but too sour for my kids. It was 615pm when we ordered and got our food at 715. Maybe they were short staffed for presidents' day? We had to get up and ask for everything we needed at our table. But they were always sweet, though it felt a little chaotic. The salsa as mentioned before had zero spice but had flavor so wasn't a problem for me. My chicken taquitos had more spice with the lime-y sauce on top of it. Loved the amount of guac that came with them too. My husband said his surf n turf burrito was yummy and it was big. So the service wasn't bad but not attentive and food took too long so that knocks off a star and a half; the food made up for it. We give 3.6 stars. We hope there's better service in the future so I can update my review. read more

The Seis off of River is the worst. Ordered food for my daughter and I... sat for 30 minutes and watched everyone else get their food. Our simple order of tacos and churros was lost. They must have changed their recipe for the Al Pastor- the only thing I get here. It used to be spicy. It's not anymore... don't know what happened to the chile. The last 2/2 times I have had it over the past 2 months it hasn't been served with pineapple (says it comes with that in the menu). Overall the quality and thoroughness of the food has greatly declined. Overall I have never been impressed with their service and that's why I try to go to Seis off Oracle but this one is conveniently in the way home. Do not recommend at this point. They can't even do what they say they are doing to do right. Very disappointing. read more

They hardly put any meat in their tacos. I've ordered six times and every time they get smaller and smaller. Sometimes as little as TWO tiny pieces of steak per taco. So little meat that you have to combine all three tacos into one tortilla in order to enjoy it. Not sure how they're getting away with it, especially for the price of $20 per order. Considering going down to the restaurant and making a youtube video exposing them. It's a shame because the food would be great if they weren't scamming. read more

It pains me to say it but Seis Kitchen was very mid for me. I was excited to try it and the photos + reviews looked delicious however the anticipation was more exciting than than the food itself. In all our dishes red onion's overpowered everything. The guacamole, the salad and the tacos red onions galore. My mom ate one of her chicken taquitos because she reported the meat was mushy and was bland. I ordered the three taco plate with a chicken, steak and pork taco all of which were okay, nothing special. I did not like either salsa, they were both too smoky for me. Green was less smoky than red. What I can say is portions were hefty, black beans were yummy and salad greens were fresh. It is counter service and there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Birria tacos were too greasy for me. Sat outside and the patio was not picked up and things were blowing around in the breeze.

You cannot call in a pickup order, so i ordered when i got there. Sat there for 25 minutes. They were not that busy and other orders after me came out. Finally got the order walked out and the handle on the bag broke, Luckily I didn't loose all the food. Got home no chips or salsa for the queso. I ordered a shrimp taco and a fish taco, no crema, both cold and dry! Couldn't even eat them. I tried calling to talk to a manager all you get is a recording to leave a message. I spent 85.00 dollars and that's the service they give, will never go back! read more

I'm not sure how I've never tried this place but I met a few friends here today for lunch. We found out that you can't order off the lunch menu until 12 noon and they held very much to that time frame. So we hung out for about 15 minutes and then placed our order when they allowed. I was somewhat underwhelmed with the food. I got 2 flank steak tacos and cilantro rice. The tortillas were soggy and soaked through. The rice had no flavor. I asked for hot salsa and it wasn't spicy at all. You have to buy chips and salsa separate. I didn't find anything worth going back for. read more
