A diner from tucson, AZ
Jul 2, 2010
They just opened a few weeks ago. It used to be a place called Chuy's. I stopped going into Chuy's because the Manager was rude to me when I politely asked to turn the 105 decibel juke box down a bit.
THIS IS NOT CHUYS!!!!! It really is a great place, the manager and staff are all NEW and really nice, so many of Chuys staff looked like parolees. My first experience is the kind of treatment I search for in a restaurant and bar. I ordered the rack of baby back ribs and the first few ribs had a fantastic rub on them, superb taste ... an obviously good chef, But alas a few ribs in they went from light pink to undercooked. {learning the refrig verse freeze is probably what happened} Well NO Guff the polite manager (Young Guy Jesus possibly) made it right. Beyond right!!!
They first offered to replace it and I did not want to do that so they offered any other dish free of charge to make up.. Well they hired a REAL Chef there. I got a dish called "Shrimp Poblano". The Poblano sauce was world class, Not something I would expect in southwest Tucson and at these reasonable prices. I asked the chef If I could try his Ancho Chile Cream sauce and again a world class sauce. They use that on a scampi dish. I dont know where this chef went to school but WOW!!!
I am going back this week they say they are getting wifi installed and I love to work online and have a few cocktails in the daytime... My new local hangout!!!
