We are here for dinner on a Sunday night. The server was very attentive. The burger and salad were definitely above average! After reading all the negative reviews on here, we were pleasantly surprised. We will return.

Stopped by for lunch today with the wife. She had the  Mac'n'Cheese Burger: she liked it, was wanting  something different and this did it; I had a Calzone, it was huge and delicious. Andrea was our server, was very attentive and pleasant. We enjoyed ourselves and the meal. Don't forget this is not a 4 star restaurant;  but it is a good  burger/pizza joint with hot rods under construction for your viewing pleasure, cool machines and events in season and interesting memorabilia and displays. Great bar too.

Great food was very busy when we went but still had great service and the food was fresh flavorful and cooked just like we asked. Too bad all the bad reviews keep people away since we really enjoyed it!

Great place to eat. Went there today and everything was fantastic. The Philly cheesesteak was one of the best I've had out here and my wife had the patty melt and loved it. Great service, great food and I want the Cobra!

I went there got dinner last night, and may I say the Beef Stroganoff was the best thing I've eaten in a long time. My friend ordered the open face roast beef sandwich and I was great also. Nice lounge and patio upstairs too!

Great First Visit. On the first visit, I have to give a five star. The ambiance is great. Very much a garage with great decorations, a car enthusiast dream. big windows give you a look at the work in progress with several cars at the garage.

On service and food they excelled. we were promptly seated and got our drinks fast. All the plates going to adjacent tables looked great. We ordered a Bacon Cheese burger and a Philly Cheese stake. They both came very fast and the product was excellent. I read some reviews here about frozen or cold food. This was nothing like that. The burger buns are great looking and tasting and the Philly was huge and very flavor full.

It looks like they close their kitchen early, we visited for lunch. we asked about weekends and we were advised that they have a weekend breakfast buffet. Looks like something to try.

We definitely want to go back at night, the upstairs bar looks to have some great vistas.

Huge potential, not so great service. As a lot of other reviewers have mentioned, the service at Hotrods is spotty. "Our" waitress consistently ignored my husband as he tried to flag her down for a drink refill and to clear the plates and bring the check. That said, another waitress - I didn't get her name, but she was both tending bar and running circles around the other waitress - picked up the slack and was very friendly and professional. We both enjoyed the decor, thought the prices were great (really, only in Tucson could anything on this menu be considered even slightly pricey), and also liked our food. They have some reasonably healthy options for appetizers - for example, the chicken fingers are grilled instead of breaded - and also offer gluten-free bread for their sandwiches, which is a rarity. I hope they get their service act together, because I think this restaurant/business model is solid gold and a much-needed addition to southeast Tucson. We will definitely be back.

This place is cool! Heard they had some growing pains but it's really coming together! Great concept! Good prices, great atmosphere (Car guy), and dang good food! Check this place out! Rebecca in the bar was great!

We took our 2 year old here because he’s obsessed with cars. The hostess noticed our son was loving the cars and asked if we wanted to be by the window to see the cars better, which I was thoughtful. The food was good if your looking for American fare, and it was fun to look at the old cars.

Very nice fun place, especially if you like vehicle restoration! Place was clean and the service was nice and good. Food is limited, just bar type food. The only option for a possible good piece of meat on a salad, sandwich or appetizer is no longer available. And, that is only informed to you after the whole decision process and ordering. We were told that they no longer offer sirloin options on any dishes, not that they were currently out of stock.

The food is SCRATCH!!! No frozen or prefab meals or food. They literal bread the fish and chicken and make their sauces. I wish I could have taken pictures because the food was similar to what you would get at a high end restaurant. Also, the staff were great and the "hot rod" part is totally true and unique. I am definitely going again.

Went to a friends retirement party at Hotrods. Service was fantastic. It had been a few years since going to Hotrods and nothing had changed. Love the place.

Awesome place. They are working on some really cool projects. The Porsche 944 getting a V8 swap was cool to see. Food was good. Beers are cheap in comparison to alot of other places. Server and Bar tender were really nice.

From start to finish, a great meal. Cool truck and motorcycle in the lobby to look at as well as pinball machines to play. Our Server showed us that there are still good ones out there, quick, attentive and just enough conversation when at the table. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. You can look right into the mechanic area where they are working on hotrods while you talk and eat. Numerous TV's to watch the game as well!

Tried this place out on a Friday night for dinner. Great place! Good food-basic pub fare but a lot of variety. Food was a little pricey but drinks were very cheap. Awesome atmosphere and very nice staff who were very quick. And pinball- my favorite!

First time coming to this restaurant and I really enjoyed myself. Service was great, and the food was delicious with an excellent menu. The environment itself is quite large and spacious. They have two dining areas one is separate from the bar if you're looking for more of a quiet experience but overall this place was extremely low key and in my opinion underrated. This building should be packed everyday with how the service and experience was and yet it's pretty quiet here which is a bonus to all of the locals. They had very clean restrooms and they also have a couple of pinball machines, Pac-Man, two pool tables located outside in a nice covered area with plenty of shade and breeze. It looks like they also have cornhole games available to play as well. They also have windows across the entire venue overlooking a restoration shop where you can see the guys work on cars!! I would highly recommend at least coming here once and I will definitely come back again.

If you are into cars, great atmosphere for a meal otherwise come for the awesome food. We went with a group and we were all surprised how huge the portions were, even the kids pizza was big enough to split among kids! Everything was delicious, definitely going to go back when we are back in town.

The family and I stopped in on a whim. It was probably one of the best restaurant stops we have made in a while. The atmosphere was really neat. It is awesome that you get to look down at the garage! We went on a Sunday afternoon so no one was there working in the garage. I got the Italian meat and cheese sandwich with fries. It was great. My wife got the Roma shrimp pasta dish and loved it. My youngest daughter got the BBQ pulled pork sandwich with fries and she actually ate the whole sandwich (she normally doesn't...). The eldest got the 2 hot dogs with fries. They were the big hot dogs and not the little ones. The bread they use is out of this world good! Overall I definitely give this place high reviews. Our server was Kristi and we loved her.
