Wonderful food and atmosphere. If you sit at the outside bar, there's usually no wait, otherwise expect a half hour or more.

The food is good, but the service is very lukewarm and a bit unfriendly. It took an uncomfortably long time for us to be acknowledged after we were seated. My mimosa was only about half full. All the food we had was excellent, however. read more

Great staff and comfortable facility. Love they added avocado toast, but when I tried it, the bread was marginal tasting. Get some good bread such as Ren coffee house uses. Their bread with your sliced avocado presentation would be terrific. Live you friendly staff! read more

LOUD!! It was so loud in the restaurant that we had to shout to talk to each other. The food was stale (or at least taste like it). The service was terrible. read more

This restaurant food was horrible and unseasoned. When they brought out the food that we ordered, it was undercooked and unseasoned. I would never eat here again nor recommend it to anyone... read more

Our server was Tito, which just so happened to also be the manager. He was amazing! So polite and very attentive. I cant say enough about him, so you should really go see for yourself. The food was beyond delicious! We had the sausage and peppers scramble as well as the blueberries and cream French toast. It was one of the best breakfasts we've had in Tucson. Soooo soo yummy! Great portions and great service. Go check out Teaspoon now!!! You wont regret it. They also have a bottomless mimosa deal that is perfect for bigger parties!! We had the prickly pear mimosa and it was so perfect. Highly recommend this place to everyone!!! read more

Teaspoon is a real Tucson treasure. The menu is innovative and the execution is amazing. Moreover, the waitstaff is fantastic, especially Jasmine. We've never had anything that wasn't great at Teaspoon. read more

Mediocre food at best. Inside is decorated very nicely and they have a nice patio outside. The Orange Theory uppity's like to glare at you as they come out sweaty from the work out they just did, but that's ok. read more

I've been here twice good food except both times i had to send the eggs Benedict back because they over cook them. The dutch baby pancake is really good but the service was poor because only one waitress. read more

We really like the food here. The wings are so good. Then there's the bubble waffle which is yummy. The service tends to be slow though. That is why they don't get 5 stars. read more

So disappointing. Our first visit was on a weekday morning & there were three occupied tables. Consequently, our service was great. We were a party of two & we ordered a skillet dish & a bubble waffle topped with crème fraîche. Bubble was delicious, yet there is nothing savory about it; it's pure dessert. We both agreed that the skillet dish was substantial yet was a little bland. House coffee was very good. We visited again on a Saturday morning & the indoor area was full but it was a little too hot to sit on the patio. Our 28 year old son was visiting from CA so we were a party of three & had to wait about twenty minutes for our indoor table. The indoor room is very loud when crowded. Two of us tried another skillet dish, & I had the chicken with biscuits & gravy, which we all agreed was delicious. The two skillet dishes with potatoes, beans, avocado, eggs, etc, were VERY bland. The predominant flavor was of canola oil. We had the same waiter as last time, yet service was lousy, spotty. My son finally had to get up to get his attention & he still took a while to come to our table. My husband was a little disgusted with all of the waiting (we all were). He sent his back & ordered nothing else & our son ordered an omelette. The omelette was just ok; nothing special & very basic, served with a piece of toast with jam on the side. I had to flag someone to get a refill of coffee. Clearly management needs to hire a runner or another server on the busy weekend mornings. I think our server was just spread too thin yo provide adequate service. And if people had been complaining about the canola oil, had the servers notified management? I might go back on a weekday for a dessert-like dish, because the location is convenient for me, but I would select my entree with caution. read more

Just under 40 dollars for two people for breakfast. My eggs Benedict had a piece of ham 1/3 the size of the English muffin. The sauce did not have the lemon savory taste I had hoped for. The skillet was under cooked, dry and one penny size piece of sausage. The coffee was good and so was our waiter. Spend more on food quality and recipe development if you want people back. read more

Dear owner of Teaspoon, What a disappointment!! I had really been looking forward to your new breakfast, brunch, lunch spot in the old bluefin location. Things started out well: very nice ambiance, creative menu with higher end pricing for breakfast and lunch, good coffee and clean restrooms. Downhill the rest of the way. We each ordered an omelette- I ordered the veggie omelette, my husband ordered the 3 pigs omelette $8-11 for omelette with one piece of toast - no potatoes. I ordered them extra as a side. First the omelettes- mine had spinach, peppers , mushrooms and jack cheese. Peppers were thrown in raw without precooking to soften them up. I'm sorry, I don't like crunchy raw peppers in my omelette. Jack cheese was so minimal it was almost nowhere to be found even after I deconstructed the whole thing trying to find some, mushrooms and peppers were fine. I would have asked for a bit more cheese to sprinkle on top but the waiter was no where to be found. In fact he only came by to offer a refill on the coffee only after we were finished with the whole breakfast. I can see why they don't put breakfast potatoes on the plate - they were awful! Totally undercooked, not worth the $3.00 spent. Finally, waitstaff obviously untrained as to follow up after food delivery to see if everything is satisfactory or to offer refills on coffee. As I said, other menu items looked intriguing but probably won't return to find out! Too many other places for a better breakfast in Tucson read more

Amazing food and great service will definitely be back!! 10/10 recommended the breakfast pizza it was beyond what I was expecting!

The best way to describe the food and service quality of this restaurant is simply put as "Outstanding." Although the hostess was rude to us when we came in, our Server Cesar (Sess-Ar) was AMAZING! and quickly turned our group's frowns into smiles. He was kind, attentive, and made my friend's birthday brunch one of the best we've ever experienced! Thank you Teaspoon and Cesar! read more

So excited we have a new restaurant in the neighborhood. I wanted to give them a couple of months before trying. Well I went twice this week. I like the menu but food & service so disappointing. I had the sausage & pepper breakfast skillet, very little sausage and peppers but tons of uncooked potatoes and absolutely no flavor. I decided to try again with some friends for lunch, I had the Greek chicken wrap very plain. I'm writing this in hopes that the owners will read some of these reviews and make some changes. I really want you to succeed but the last thing tucson needs is another plain & boring restaurant. Good Luck read more

The food is amazing.. Eggs Benedict is so good! Service is great and people nice and welcoming! Small place but the place is great! Owner is there and is talking to people and being friendly! read more

Teaspoon - Amazing Menu - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

See all

The only reason it has one star: good coffee and fresh cream. Horrible experience. This is not hyperbole: Denny's and McDonalds provide much better service, quality of food and price. Isn't it fraud when you agree to provide sthing for a fee but don't deliver and continue to lure suckers in???? Clearly there is not a chef in the kitchen and front of the house staff?....I don't know what to say...speechless for now. Muffin in eggs Benedict dense, thick grainy. One thin piece of ham size large enough to cover maybe 1/3 of rackufdun. Hollandaise sauce, consistency of orange juice, flavorless and neon orange. Potatoes half cooked and flavorless. Even tons of salt didn't work. Literally half cooked, they were crunchy! Chicken in the biscuit gravy dish tough. So tough hard To cut. Gravy, predominant flavor, flour Skillet dish no flavor and no joking...dry...no moisture no juiciness. I guess it's because the potatoes are half raw and the sausage and onions ...I just don't Know what would make them dry and flavorless Never never offered more coffee one of us spilled ice tea on the table ice and tea everywhere. A person took a plate away and never took the ice tea and ice and Wet napkins from our clean up. Person who took our order didn't know what a basted Egg is. I feel real sad and pissed all this $$ wasted in investment etc. one big scam. Really disturbing I gave them my $. Oh yeah--there were flies. Please note there were only 6 tables filled and 6 persons milling about looking like they hit a raver last night woke up here and are playing a creepy cosplay called restaurant and kitchen. read more

Amazing food, wait staff! I had the country chicken with biscuits, eggs over easy...awesome!!! read more

Teaspoon - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Teaspoon served some of the most delicious breakfast we ate in the Tucson area. Service was great. The only negative factors were the prices which were on the high side... In spite of the price we will likely return. read more

My boyfriend and I dined here for breakfast. The staff was pleasant and nice, but service was a bit slow. They may have been understaffed. I had the savory crepes, and my boyfriend the famous bubble waffle. Both were good, but not exceptional. The food was just warm when it came to the table, not hot. I would come again, but at a less busy time. read more

Really fun, new brunch spot. I've been three times and the local is cute and the menu is refreshing. Service is slowly improving. The French toast and cast iron skillet pancake are both winners. read more

Ok had to try it since it's new and in the area. Has a good concept. And overall party of four left unimpressed. Went for breakfast. The iconic 200% profit meal of a restaurant. You all know. 12 bucks for eggs. Etc. I had the Benedict with crab and lobster suggested by the waiter. Not bad but not good. 1 egg perfectly poached the other soft but with a cooked no run yolk. Bummer. Also the hollandaise sauce which makes a Benedict, seemed to be used as a garnish drizzle over the plate instead of a nice coat over the eggs and English muffins. All home hash browns were under done and under colored.seemed par boiled and oily. These are cubed hash browns. Food is a texture and color as well as taste when people enjoy. The cast iron skillet dishes are simply the items placed in the skillet as a vessel. Nothing more. Just as another yelper had said. The iron crispness you would hope to find in a skillet is missing and the boiled hash browns are in the skillet which gave it away. Go to The Cup and get there skillet eggs. That sets the bar. Best part of meal was the quality of the drip coffee. And the bubble waffle. That waffle is dessert like and apparently the owner of this place is a pastry chef. Which makes sense since the savory menu items lacked any enthusiasm, wow factor, or desire to order again. The service was good but the food took awhile and we were glad we came early as about 1030 am Sunday it got filled up. The waiter suggested to make some hash browns for us and we elected no. As 2 of the dishes would be impossible since the wimpy hash browns​ were a component to the meal. Didn't ask for a discount but maybe a simple free coffees would have been nice to do. The pancakes side was 4 bucks for 2 pancakes the size of a McDonald's small cheeseburger. Steep for fried buttermilk batter. All I can say is I may be blunt with a review but I have to keep it real. I want new businesses to succeed and hope they learn from yelpers. There is far too much competition in the breakfast market on Sunday. We ended up as a couple out 50 bucks with no alcohol ordered. For that price I'd higher a cook who can raise the game and make a breakfast scream good morning. Not.. is that it? read more

This cozy and comfortable restaurant is a hidden gem of the Tucson valley. First off the service exceeds in meeting all your dining needs. I went here to celebrate a friends birthday and within minutes of arriving the owner greeted us and began to get our drink orders. The waiter followed suite and promptly took our orders as friends arrived intermittently. On Fridays, they have a live band that doesn't blast out the place with volume but provides that gentle jovial ambience to relax to after a week of work. Their happy hour deals on drinks and apps are a good deal. I had the boneless wings and fried vegetable platter with a red Zinfandel. The apps both had full flavors and are size wise just right for an app. It was a pleasant experience and I look to go back for another round. read more

Our favorite brunch spot! Amazing staff, amazing mimosas, AMAZING food! My go to is the chillaquilles, or the bubble waffle

While in Tucson, discovered this amazing breakfast cafe. The ambience was perfect. Indoor and shaded outdoor eating. Food was just awesome! The vanilla bean French toast delicious! We will definitely be back and I already recommended it to a Saddlebrooke resident who plans to go as she loves eating out for breakfast. And order the OJ as it is fresh squeezed and delicious. read more

Great addition to expand our selection of breakfast options in Tucson. I love the healthy options, but they also have an indulgent selection too! Had the acai bowl with the "beautiful" fresh juice (apple, carrot, and ginger). Everything was so yummy and was the perfect post-workout meal. My husband had the eggs benedict and the Hong Kong bubble pancakes. I had to amend my review from 5 star to three star. Just went back and it was super busy (Congrats) but it took an hour to get our food, my acai bowl was actually lukewarm, and someone from our party had to give our tickets to the counter to close out. They have gotten busy, but need to step it up their service to keep up. read more

We really, really wanted to give teaspoon a chance but unfortunately only a few things were great; the southwestern was liked and and the bubble waffle was a smash; enough so that we now own a bubble waffle maker. Maybe we'll give it another go but for the time being, this place was a disappointment. read more

The food was delicious. I had the bubble waffle. Unfortunately the service was lacking. It took forever for our server to come take our order and it wasn't even crowded. The waiter only checked on us once and it took a while to get the check. Very disappointed. I wouldn't go back for this reason alone. I kind of felt like nothing while I was sitting there waiting. A very bad feeling. read more

Generous 2 stars. Opening service Mother's Day was horrible. When your waiter refers to anything cooked in "grease" you know his skill level immediately. Undercooked potatoes sent back came back out still undercooked but with twice the serving size. More of bad is not better. Coffee was initially served with low fat milk, not half and half. Are my standards too high to expect such things? read more

Little pricey but very good food. I went with a group and it was packed! The espresso was potent! I also loved the Eggs Benedict dish. The bubble waffle looked amazing but seemed too big for me to eat by myself. Will be heading back again! read more

We had a wonderful breakfast here. Went early Saturday morning while running errands and were pleasantly surprised with the excellent food and service. The egg parfait was delicious and the bubble waffle was to die for, with a generous scoop of clotted cream and strawberries. We'll definitely return! read more

Wonderful! Great menu, good service, and a lovely location! Dog friendly, shaded patio with outdoor air conditioning! The food is really high quality! This area needed a good breakfast/lunch spot! Love the Casas Adobe Plaza. Just beautiful! You won't be disappointed! read more

I travel to Tucson for work and often grab breakfast at Teaspoon and get some work done while I enjoy a great breakfast. Today was my first day back in over 6 months and boy this place had a completely different vibe. Staff had an attitude and acted like they were doing me a favor by seating me near an outlet. Next, I tried to get the WiFi password to connect to "guest" and it was as if I was asking for a key to their home. After 30 minutes and asking two different people, I was told the owner doesn't like for guests to be on the wifi. Not a big deal but the treatment I received was really disappointing and I will definitely find a new breakfast spot. The food service was poor also-- slow, unfriendly, and a major lack of enthusiasm. Bummer because I use to love this place. I won't go back. read more

This was our second visit in the last week. Our first time was Easter and we ordered a variety of things which were all great! Their mimosas are delicious. Today we tried the morning bruschetta and Dutch apple pancakes...yum! I love the atmosphere and the people working there. It is our new favorite place. read more

My husband and I love trying new eating establishments. We checked this place out for brunch a few weekends ago. I love the ambience at this joint! It reminds me of a restaurant in San Diego. The patio looks lovely and I love that they have the large garage type doors that can be opened during nice weather. I got the fresh squeezed orange juice. Delish, but for $4 a piece I would expect it to be substantially larger sized. My hubby got a balt (bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato) and said it was fair. The Parmesan fries he got were tasty. I got he loaded baked potato skillet. It was just okay. It was mainly potatoes, which were cooked well, but I was definitely disappointed in the potato to toppings ratio. Our waitress was nice, but was very quiet (maybe she is shy?). Overall it was a good experience, but I feel there is room for improvement. read more

Forget any other place to have breakfast in Tucson, from the fresh coffee to the Veggie Omelet everything was done to perfection. Staff were happy and helpful and unlike just a pastry place the breakfasts are real food read more

The food is exceptionally good, and the service is even better! "Little Brandon" Is the epitome of an outstanding, dedicated and friendly server! We will continue to return! read more

The food was OK nothing to rave about and the service was horrid. We waited so long to be served that it took a lot away from the experience as a whole. And when we were there we are one of many that were complaining about the length of time to even give our order much less receive it. There are so many great restaurants in that area that have amazing food and service that I will not be returning to this one read more

Absolutely not happy. Arrived and was told a 45 minute wait. Ok. An hour and a half later with tons of excuses, we still were not seated. So disappointing. We came to celebrate a birthday and just kept waiting. I don't recommend believing the wait time. We ended up leaving. We won't be back. read more
