    The nachos are fantastic with or without protein and the carne asada quesadilla is a favorite
    Janet B.

    This restaurant is located at the pool and is a great spot to have lunch. We also ordered at the pool both days and everything we ordered was fresh and fantastic! Servers are great and even when the pools are super busy they all work really hard at creating a fun atmosphere and try to keep your wait time down as much as possible ~ this area in the daytime gets really busy

    Turquesa Margarita
    Matt G.

    We dropped by after multiple people told us the bison tacos here were a CAN'T MISS. Totally worth the hype! Also, the Turquesa Margarita (pictured) was FANTASTIC. What we weren't necessarily expecting was the exceptional service. Dalia and Luke really went out of their way to make our day special, and Ivan was slinging extraordinary drinks from the bar. 10/10 would recommend.

    Beautiful restaurant by the pool and amazing service! Everyone is super friendly and I enjoyed the food and time here! :) The drink was fantastic but the highlight for me were the nachos - sooo freaking good. I kid you not but that cheese sauce is yums! We added steak but wished they gave us a bit more since there were only a few pieces - it was like looking for gold... "oh yay found a piece" - if I had known I probably wouldn't have paid the $7 add on because it was tasty as is :)

    Southwest Superfood Bowl
    Melissa F.

    Service was wonderful! We sat by the pool and had drinks first and then went up to a table for lunch. EVERYTHING was incredible! My husband got the Fuego burger and said it was worth every single penny if not more! I had the southwest superfood bowl and it was full of flavor. Portions were large which was just what we were looking for. All the drinks we had were delicious as well.

    I randomly found this while searching online for local restaurants in Tucson. Upon finding it, I…read morewas so excited to try it out and immediately made reservations a couple weeks out. Once my husband and I arrived, at 7 o'clock on a Friday a couple weeks ago, we were sat immediately. I ordered a Horchata, I found their take on it, refreshing and unique. The pistachio coconut rim was so different, but good! I ordered the chef board appetizer ,which comes out looking like a work of art. I believe there were four different cheeses/spreads, and multiple arrays of fruits and sides. I loved it! My husband liked his pork belly appetizer too. Our meals were both phenomenal, with my husband, choosing the salmon dish and I had the chicken piccata dish. Fries taste fresh and had the perfect crisp tothem., well, though I didn't expect the olives with my entree, they really helped him make the dish! Even the leftover was amazing. My only complaint from this visit was the $14 curry I ordered which was severely lacking. I love curry and order it often at different places. This one could've used more flavor, and I really wish it would've had more than just potatoes in it. I definitely took it home to work on it. This place is pretty pricey , and boosts are very small menu, but they did have some nightly specials to also order from. It's extremely small with only six tables maybe, but there is a covered and enclosed patio as well!

We've eaten a lot of food and had a lot of cocktails over the years and honestly this is one of the greatest meals we had. Though it's small the atmosphere was fun and yet still felt private. However that didn't stop us from pushing our table together with the couple next to us even though we didn't know them....we couldn't ignore each other's oooing and ahhhing about the food and so we decided to join tables and order every single dessert to share! So not only do we have a great meal , but we made new friends! The service was fantastic. We wanted to go back for a special occasion but unfortunately they had to unexpectedly close for the evening. However they let us know about the issue and we're looking forward to going back another time.

The seafood paella is a true highlight--rich, aromatic, and packed with perfectly cooked seafood that brings depth and authenticity to every bite. It's the kind of dish that feels both comforting and elevated at the same time. The cauliflower croquetas are just as impressive--crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and full of flavor. Even if you're not usually drawn to cauliflower, this dish easily wins you over. Dessert was unforgettable. The churro y plato was absolutely amazing, with warm, crispy churros paired with indulgent dips that made it hard to stop at just one bite. Service was stellar throughout the entire meal--attentive, friendly, and perfectly paced, which really elevated the overall experience. One small drawback was the seating. With a reservation, it would have been great to have the option to select outdoor seating ahead of time. The patio atmosphere looked inviting, and having that choice during booking would really enhance the overall experience. Overall, Contigo Latin Kitchen stands out for its flavorful dishes, excellent service, and thoughtful preparation--definitely a spot worth returning to.

We were not offered bar seating as an alternative but others after us were offered and seated right away. As we waited for our table other couples were getting complimentary drinks but none were offered to us even though we were waiting longer. When we got frustrated enough to speak with the hostess seeing that other people were seated for tables that arrived long after us we noted that we should be seated as it was well past our reservation time. They said we can sit at the bar but in fact had a table open. When we pointed that out they said that table was for the first couple to arrive which was in fact us. When we noted that they seemed confused but looked at their sheet of names and had no rhyme or reason to the order they were sitting people. Finally we get seated, food was changed last minute to a pre fixed menu with high price. We paid $260 for food that tasted like it cost $30!! Tables beside us were complaining about the food as well, over cooked and rushed. Plates were taken off our table before we were done with them and service was rushed and unprofessional. We have been trying to go here due to high reviews however I strongly recommend not going. In fact, the steak house next door has much better service and food combined for same price. 10/10 do not recommend if I could give 0 stars I would. Please improve not only your service but the quality of food you present to your customers especially for that high of a price tag!

That was even more special as the birthday gal loves mariachi. They were good. Despite hosting a wedding reception that took a good portion of the restaurant, our service was excellent. Never felt neglected or forgotten. Drinks and chips came quickly. The drinks were reasonable and not watered down. I had a Tesoro margarita. It was spot on. A mixed drink was ordered and so was Modelo on draft. Love the full bar. When it came to the food there was a delay caused by our party. Many good selections, we took a while to order. Despite that our food still came up timely. Every one was served at the same time and everything was the perfect temp. It was nicely presented and tasted just as good. Even the hard to please were pleased. Generous portions. Great taste. It was fun listening to the mariachi and watching people dance and have a good time. Far as desert. Who had room. Still the to go flan was excellent once eaten. I would definitely consider coming here any time for happy hour. For dinner. Or. To celebrate any occasion. It was a good time.

Flavors…read morewere all on point and as expected from the components on the menu, which doesn't happen often in Phoenix. The Papas Verde had an addicting tang from the tomatillo salsa but were brilliantly balanced out by the chorizo and asadero cheese. The shaved brussel salad could have used a little more date and chile to balance out the vinegar but I was pleased either way. The elote was probably the only thing that fell short execution-wise as I didn't get much of the chorizo flavor, but the cook on the corn itself was perfect. The Gambas al Ajillo are absolutely a must-get. Juicy, sweet shrimp with an unexpected kick from the butter sauce and unsurprisingly great bread from Noble. The Tlayuda was a little heavy on the lettuce, but the smoked pork and bean puree combo were so flavorful that it helped balance out the richness with texture and freshness. I also loved the crispy contrast from the fried tortilla. We ended with the Concha and Mango Sticky Rice ice cream which sounded pretty simple but was quite impressive in its own right. The ice cream was a touch too frozen, but it ended up working out well with the crunchy cornflake coating and lightly warmed, pillowy concha to make a really satisfying ending to our meal. Service was excellent and the patio was well-lit and had heaters ready for colder weather. Vecina is on the pricier side for sure, but you will not be disappointed.

Both dishes were very flavorful and the beef was so tender. I enjoyed the light but flavorful sauces on both dishes. The prices are extremely high for the small portion sizes. The service was excellent. The whole Diners, Drive Ins and Dive advertising is a little obnoxious. It's on the front of the menu, on a huge sign on the window, and the episode the restaurant was on plays over and over on one of the TVs. You should be known for having amazing food and service, not for being on a silly tv show. (Has anyone ever heard Guy say something tasted bad in a single episode? I haven't.)
