After a day of grueling house-hunting followed by a nice afternoon drive through Saguaro National Park, we had a pleasant dinner here. This kind of mall menu is almost always a good idea. For $16, these were some of the smallest fish tacos I've seen this side of the authentic ones you get from street vendors in San Felipe for a couple bucks, but they tasted good. At $17 the burger was also expensive but good, and there was a huge pile of "hand cut" fries to go with it. They have a huge draft beer list. A pleasant young fella as our server and a rare (for this summer anyhow) cool desert evening on the patio made for a nice time.

This cafe had delicious food and drinks. The staff was super friendly and helpful when ordering. I recommend asking for a table by the back windows. They have a great view that usually includes local wildlife.

I haven't been to saguaro corners in a while so I took my family over there for dinner and this is the first time we've been there for dinner. I ordered the ribs and they were very good (seemed to have a mustard based bbq sauce), also the side of beans was equally delicious. Others ordered fish and chips which looked delicious and cooked right, a burger, a kids cheeseburger (large), and cheese curds. Everything was delicious but I must say those cheese curds were probably the best cheese curds I've eaten 👏🏼. I also ordered an old fashioned which was pretty good and the margaritas are also good. We'll be heading back for dinner sometime again.

Great selection of food and beer, very flavorful, at a good place. Sometime for everyone, even the kids. Very nice view of the Rincon mountains. In the summer, avoid late morning and early afternoon because of the desert heat.

LOVE the atmosphere and the staff. The place itself is beautiful and never had any issues wherever you sit. The patio is great and they usually have the umbrellas open on sunny hot days. Inside is great and there’s a wall of windows to see critters outside. Saw some javelina once. Staff is always helpful and personable. Saguaro Corners has quickly become a favorite to-go place. Try anything on the menu, it’s all fantastic

Food and drinks are great but the service was lacking.
Food: the food and drinks were delicious. Ordered the jalapeño margaritas and they were the perfect amount of spice. The ribs were great. The sauce was very savory and accompanied the ribs fantastically. The green chili carnitas Mac and cheese was perfect. The sauce was creamy and the green chili added the perfect flavor.
Service: walked in at 5:30pm with 2 people and were told it would be a 30 min wait. Waited 45 min. There were open tables and we were told they were for a larger party coming in. Well, that family of 10 got all the service and attention. Seated after us and our server was more focused on them. Sure, bigger table bigger tip.
Our server didn’t write down our order (which always turns out disastrous) and had to come back to the table twice to ask about our order. She didn’t get it right even after coming back to ask. She was more concerned with getting the seating ready for the party of 10.

Appetizer and dinner was very tasty. My Mom loved the chicken and waffles, we had fish-n-chips which were also very good. Our server Jakob was absolutely excellent! Very attentive and very sweet to my mom who wears hearing aids which can be challenging in a restaurant atmosphere. Jakob made our experience exceptional and we will definitely be back!

I've been here before, and generally enjoy both the food and the ambience of this rustic eatery just across the road from Saguaro National Park East. This particular experience was problematic in ways that previous visits were not. Medium-rare and medium burgers were indistinguishable. The beer I ordered took a very long time to appear. Most concerning, the salmon which was ordered with my wife's salad didn't arrive until the meal was mostly eaten. There were also inaccuracies in the checks that needed to be corrected. These shortcomings were a one-off in my experience. They won't prevent me from going back here again.

An absolutely beautiful environment to have dinner with two cherished friends. One had the skirt steak with vegetables and rice, another had the New York strip with mashed potatoes and some gorgeous carrots, and I opted for a couple of fish tacos with rice and beans. The steak dishes were magnificent and in all honesty I wish I would have ordered one of them as well as the tacos were good, but not what I had hoped. The Baja fish had a pretty significant amount of beer batter to the single piece of cod, and the spicy shrimp taco was just that and it was wonderful, but the shrimp itself were those small shrimp that remind me of my youth, and shrimp from a can. Not what I expected. However that does not detract from my desire to go back and try something different next time. Service was very good, the supper club ambiance was endearing, and the scenery outside was beautiful. I love that they hang feeders to attract the striking desert cardinals (which are different than the bright red cardinals that I'm used to seeing in the upper midwest). The most important part of the evening was time spent with wonderful friends - that's what matters most. I'll be back!

Great food and very generous portions! The National Park is just across the road.

Saguaro Corners has been a Tucson favorite since 1956. Located directly outside the Saguaro National Park, the ambiance is the huge selling point here. We had the Summer Steak Salad and the Fish and Chips, along with a few specialty cocktails (Mango Jalapeño and Pineapple Jalapeño Margaritas). Fish and chips was good but the steak salad was not memorable for the price. Fortunately, our server recognized we had a few issues and resolved everything before we even had to ask. We did enjoy looking through the large glass window as the wildlife went about their business without a care in the world. Service and ambiance gets a five stars. We will be back to have a few drinks and appetizers and to sit on the dog friendly patio when the weather cools down a bit.

** Spouse worked here for Frank & Flo Calvert, and Bob in the Kitchen from 10/80-2/82. Pay stub attached, believe this gives her a unique perspective is contributing to this 5 star review. (Smiling). ($3.36 per hour plus tips)
1. Respectable beer selection.
2. Chicken and Waffle plate - did not disappoint.
3. Pulled Pork Sandwich - decent, however the yellow mustard introduction leaves the pork looking a bit unconventional. Don't misunderstand, still tasty, just aesthetically difficult for this reviewer to get past....
4. The Dip - Not chewy, great flavor - clean and a toasted bun. Solid 5 stars.
Shout out: Chelsea had just returned from a break - and provided outstanding service, truly made us feel like part of the Saguaro Corners family. Thank you, Chelsea, for making our trip out East extra special!

First time there. The hostess could be more welcoming and have a better phone presence. The I door dining is a bit cramp but the wall to wall picture windows make up for it. Our niece had a ball watching all of the birds moving from the multiple feeders to branches and cacti. The server was kind, the food came in a timely manner, the silverware took the longest. The food was very good and portions were huge! Split a plate or be prepares to take a box home. Now that the weather is getting cooler we will try to patio.

Love going here to eat. Their servings are large and the food is always good. We’ve been here during lunch and dinner and never had a different experience. The only thing that is iffy is their take out - the servings don’t feel as big and the food isn’t as good by the time it gets home. So I do recommended eating in versus taking it out.
James Sanscrainte
I LOVE this place. The food is always fantastic, the view is to die for, and they have excellent live music most nights. GREAT selection of beers too! It's a "must visit" place if you are in Tucson.
Shirley Peircey
We went here for my brothers birthday. Our family loved it. I highly recommend this place. Very friendly staff and they stay on top the drinks. The food was great.
Marcus Arriaga
The staff is very responsible and courteous and I had a great time! I will definitely make it a point to visit the restaurant again. Everyone is real down to earth.
Casey Case
great music on the patio in the evenings, good food .. all meats are smoked (not good) allowing dogs on the patio , becoming a distraction to customers and a dog park
Rick Small
Really enjoy Saguaro Corners. The only rewstaurant and bar this Far East. Great beer selection. Good mixed drinks. Great diverse menu. Nothing has been bad. Enjoy the outdoor patio and the variety of music all week long.
Ashley Hendrickson
Went to dinner tonight. Bobby, our server, was fantastic. One small snafu wasn't even enough to make a deal of and yet Bobby was a mind reader and fixed. Fun place, excellent service, and yummy food. Treat yourself to a night out there.
Barb Mark
We had a group if 8 that ate on the patio. Our waitress was great. She made sure the umbrellas were just right and the heaters were on. The food was heavenly. So was the beer.
Gustavo Portillo
Overall ok experience for a very informal open patio service. Good food selection and music was really good. Prices are good according to the menu.
Alan Hummel
If you are going for the beer, service and atmosphere, it’s a great place! The food, not so much.
Matt Barker
Have been here many times and absolutely love the atmosphere. The food is fantastic, with unique, tasty options you won’t find anywhere else. I love the creativity in the food and always look forward to going here. Great selection of beer as well. Been coming here since I was a kid and I was very glad to see the change after the run-down, kinda upscale place this used to be. It needed a change and that change couldn’t have been any better.
Jessica Evans
Beautiful spot and great patio! Great beverage selection as well!
JoAnn Lozowsky
The food and service was good. If you go you have to try the cheese curds. OMG they were good! The best part is the location and the amazing view.
Megan Anne
Great place for drinks, food and music. The service from Colin was great, he was super attentive and polite. Couldn't fault anything. Will be back time and time again.

good food, great atmosphere and service. Only suggestion is to fix a couple of the chairs needing repairs.
