Special occasion restraunt in tucson?

Recommended Posts

Not "special" like you guys think I am but something for a special birthday or anniversary.  my wife's birthday is a few days before Christmas just trying to plan ahead since December is a hard month for me with Christmas and 2 Christmas time birthdays I got to navigate.  Wanna take momma somewhere nice.  Any suggestions? Hotels already booked need to figure the rest out yet.

Thanks

Does it matter what part of town?

North side-Vivace’s, great Italian food

East side-The Cork, southwestern/steak house

Here is a sure fire way to pick a restaurant your wife will like. Tell her you are taking her to a special restaurant for dinner. Then say guess where we are going?
Which ever restaurant she names, just say wow great guess. Then quickly make the reservation..

You are obviously not married to a sarcastic woman that would say McDonald's or her least favorite restaurant. I envy you.

Nothing in Tucson I have found that does that for me but I don't eat out a ton. Mostly cook at house as we live a ways out.

Our favorite place to get away to is Elviras in Tubac. Make sure no shows locally are happening the weekend of...

Uh yeah thats not correct

are you talking about Pinacle Peak patio in north scottsdale?

Pinnacle Peak Patio was a famous steakhouse in Scottsdale, Arizona, that operated from 1957 to 2015, known for its Old West theme, mesquite-grilled steaks, and a policy of cutting off any ties worn by male diners. The restaurant closed permanently in June 2015 due to the sale of its land and is now a piece of Scottsdale history. 
  • History: The restaurant began in 1957 as a small store that evolved into a large steakhouse.
  • Closing: It closed its doors on June 28, 2015, after nearly 60 years of operation.
  • Tie policy: A famous and unique policy was that if you wore a tie, the staff would cut it off and hang it from the rafters.
  • Closure reasons: The restaurant was leasing its land and, when the land was sold, it was unable to find a new location.
  • Legacy: Many of its rustic treasures were sold at a public auction after the closure.
