This is definitely a spot you can go to get drinks and play bar games but on a Saturday afternoon it was nice and quiet. We ordered a couple beers and two pizzas: the bianco pizza and a quattro carne pizza. We also got a salad on the side. The salad was fresh but a little mid, but the pizza was excellent. Such crispy crust. I was excited to see they have a lot of trivia nights so I'm excited to come back for more festivities.

They've got a few TVs as well as a cooler of drinks to choose from that you can drink there or take home. There is indoor and outdoor seating. They also have a pool table and a ping pong table and beer pong set up. They're known for their pizza, which we've tried once and it was fine. They also have daily specials. We were recently there on a Saturday and the special is $5 house shots. We tried the green tea and the white tea. Both were delicious and huge! Definitely more than a shot. Service is bar/walk up order only, which is totally fine, but makes it less memorable. Overall we are glad to have Casa Marana nearby. We will definitely be back again and again.

Old Pueblo Cellars is serving up a some great unique wine varietals like Malvasia Bianca, tannat, malbec, Cabernet, Syrah and other unique blends like their Super Tucson. The wine tasting room is a bit small and but has a personal charm of southwestern themes.

But then again it makes since when it's 110 degrees outside and going wine tasting. After taking a brief tour of the property, we went inside and were greet by the nicest and most compassionate woman you could ever meet... Next to my wife of course. She was friendly, gave us the history of the winery and shared with us what brought her to work at Old Pueblo. We were there a little over an hour sharing stories; how we met our partners, what's fascinating about wines and what makes Old Pueblo unique. The wines were delicious; 100% organic and prepared in a way where you enjoy every sit and get every bit of the flavor as intended. This is definitely saved on our list of wineries outside of California that we will be going back to. Just got to plan the next road trip.

Go around the building to the right side of the landing and follow the path until you get to a green wall and you've made it. Thank you to the staff at the Landing for directing us! The whole ambiance in here is incredible. It's bright and sunny outside but it's dark and moody inside Cabali. The lighting in here really helps set the tiki mood. To drink I got the desertcomber (essentially an old fashioned) and my husband got the shoreline spritz (non alcoholic). Yes, the drinks are expensive but they pack a punch! We paired our drinkies with an order of the coconut shrimp. These were really good! Would order again. Overall, this is more a splurge night out but it's a fun place for a date night or to bring friends.

We learned that the mugs are part of the owner's personal collection, which he has been building for years. That makes the atmosphere feel even more special and authentic. Hayden was our bartender and a true mixologist. He was extremely knowledgeable about the drinks and the history behind the place, including the artwork created by someone from the University of Arizona's art department. We loved hearing the stories behind all the details. Alex ordered the Desert Comber, and I had the Painkiller. Both drinks were phenomenal--and very strong, which made them even more phenomenal-om-om-om! We also shared the shishito peppers, which were delicious. The entire experience was unique, fun, and memorable. It truly feels like you've escaped Tucson and entered another world. A huge thank-you to Hayden for being so cool, welcoming, and fun to talk to--you made our first visit even better! We will absolutely be back!

The location is great - a strip mall with plenty of parking and surrounded by restaurants, and you are invited to carry-in food. The decor is nothing special, if you look up you see all the plumbing and ductwork. We arrived at 5:45 and got the last table in the house. Best to come early or late, as it seemed to clear out a bit at 7:15PM when we left. Our table was way in the back, but we were glad to be back there as the music wasn't quite so loud. Speaking of music the band was truly exceptional. We enjoyed every minute of the live entertainment. We were looking for something to nosh on - there was a food truck out back serving burgers, but we went for the large charcuterie tray which was perfect for the 4 of us (see photo). The beer and wine menu is not huge - there is basically one "on tap" for every kind of style, and there are big fridges if you want to buy a bottle or can. We all found something to enjoy. We have added this place to our list to take visitors, it makes for a very enjoyable evening and I highly recommend it.

Wondering why a brewery with kids? Well, half of this place is a giant game room filled with old and new pinball machines, a pool table, a couple video games, foosball, a boxing game and shuffleboard. I met Jim, the awesome bartender on duty, who told me some really net stuff about the place and gave me a limited tour of the brewing room. I tried the CDO Blonde beer, which is fitting for this blonde CDO grad. I thought it was really good. Jim explained that they don't add sugar to their brewing process, and instead their natural flavor options serve as the sugars in brewing. Things like fruits, flowers and nuts take the place of added sugar. The pinball machines are very fun, but I have to say the boxing machine was the highlight for the teenage boys in our group. Seeing who hit hardest was all the rage. Catalina Brewing Company takes their beer on the run, or should I say mountain biking trails, to serve to people at events, which sounds fun. There some neat history in this place. I hear they have trivia nights as well. They are family friendly, serving sodas as well. They make cocktails with wine converted to various types of "liquor ". Overall I thought this was a great place I'd go back to in a heartbeat. Plenty of outdoor and indoor seating, and parking. It was clean and best of all, cool in the summertime. Check out the walls when you're there, including the bathroom walls, for funny memorabilia.

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!!

Been here twice in two months - once during a weekday happy hour and once on a Saturday night…read more Different staff both times but the vibe was the same: annoyed that we came in at all, and apathetic at best. Two visits doesn't make a pattern. But so far my experience is that you can walk in at any time and receive the same dismissive attitude. To be clear, I don't necessarily fault the individuals - this is typically a management issue (coming from someone who has worked behind the bar). Bottom line, a simple hello goes a long way, just sayin. Our business favors those who realize their patrons have options. FWIW this is my first-ever "negative" review. In any state. Take that for what it is. If I don't like a place, I just don't go back. But there's a missed opportunity here, y'all. We went to a different Trident in Tucson and met the best server ever, no lie. IV, please get it together and we'll come back.
