Restaurants near Titan Missile Museum

Patricia was our server, she as excellent as usual. There was very nice, quiet guitar music during our meal, and the food was excellent.

We were a party of three last night and made reservations to sit on the patio. We prefer the patio because it can get pretty loud inside. Our waiter, Alec made the evening - he was simply outstanding. We ordered two appetizers because we had to have the Cold Smoked Salmon (which is out of this world) so we added the Steamed Mussels. To our delight, the mussels were fabulous. My husband ordered his usual - the fish and chips. The fish is lightly battered and is delicious. We've recommended Wildflower just for the fish and chips. The Pork Scallopini and the Short Rib Ravioli did not disappoint. Of course, we saved room for the Banoffee Trifle for dessert, my favorite! Our granddaughter was very impressed the restaurant lived up to our hype. Again, thank you Alec for a wonderful evening!

Minor "glitch" early on remedied by restaurant Zoe McCarthy in superbly professional manner. Food fit our Wednesday night requirements perfectly- food board we split for four and four appetizers/pizza/salads (not all, we are seniors), plus the bottle of wine and we left happy (as opposed to happily left).

We thoroughly enjoyed Bata. The food was an eclectic and seasonal mix of farm to table innovation. The food was fresh, flavorful and imaginative. We chose our own mixture from the various courses. We stated with apps of the beef & pork bites , ( which were delicious and moist meatballs with a fantastic pumpkin miso sauce), and a luscious mushroon skewer. We moved on to the malawach, a wonderful Mediterranean flatbread with a labneh egg yolk and honey dip. It was special. We tore and dipped until it was gone! There was a smoked turnip dish that served as a really delicious warm, smoky salad course. Our entrees were pork loin and cod. Both proteins were well prepared while retaining just the right amount of moisture with complimentary vegetable accompaniments. We experienced various preparations of turnips in just about every dish. All were delicious. Dessert was the sorbet and chocolate cake. One was as light and refreshing as the other was rich and decadent. Our server, Roxana B. was delightful, personable and menu knowledgeable. She made great, helpful suggestions. The team was spot on with maintaining perfect timing on flow of courses and clearing and replacing plates and flatware. The restaurant had great ambience and we were pleased to have the chance to experience it on our visit to Tucson.

Vivace continues to be one of the finest dining experiences in Tucson. Over the years the location has changed, both times for the better, but the food is consistently excellent. Their most popular entree is the crab stuffed chicken breast, and it has been my go-to dish for about 30 years.
