Cafe Terra Cotta, Tucson, AZ


A couple weekends back we joined some friends for an evening at Cafe Terra Cotta.  Having been there before, we all knew what to expect but decided to sit in the bar area instead of the main restaurant.  Drinks were decent but started with a few mix-ups:  a wrong beer, followed by an orange slice on the Hefeweizen - major faux pas in the beer world, should have been a lemon! The waiter was straight from Orange County - more considered with his surfer hair than customer satisfaction.  Once the food came we all were pleasantly surprised.  The hot wings were REALLY hot with a nice smokey flavor.  The fish tacos and carnitas were good for the price and the burger was big and satisfying.

Our next time back we will be looking for a new server, with a bit more beer knowledge (shame on him)!

The great thing about Cafe Terra Cotta is they are part of Tucson Originals and it is always good to support the local economy.
