agustín kitchen

great for a date night or special occasion. this place is so nice, open and airy, with an elegant ambiance.foodwas very tasty, and service excellent, our new favorite neighborhood spot, when we can afford it!

a must eat spot! kinda fancy but more trendy! very up to date!foodis amazing! i don't care what you order you can't go wrong! service is awesome! they must like their jobs!

anniversary dinner best ever. our 2year wedding anniversary spectacular! we had the mussel app, which had an amazing spicey broth. the brulee goat cheese with agrodulce topping was perfectly creamy. the lamb shank served over the most spectacular polenta, it was to die for! the short ribs over a mushroom risotto that was packed with flavor. and the bourbon vanilla gelato was packed with vanilla flavor and the hint of bourbon set it over the top! i can't say enough about how amazing, fresh and delightful thefoodis here. this has become our go to spot for celebrations as we know we will always have spectacular service, and the most amazing farm to table fresh food. eat live and be well.

great food. tastyfoodhot or cold as it should be
cool decor

tucson iron chef does it right!. greatfoodwith beautifully balanced french overtones. the wait staff is warm, knowledgeable and efficient; and the décor is sleek, yet comfy, definitely try the "current jars" appetizer -- an offering of 4 smears served with toasted french bread. i want it to be my last meal.

easter sunday dinner. was fortunate to eat here on that night. it was relatively slow, but service was top notch and thefoodwas incredible. between two of us we had gazpacho, steak tartar, caesar salad (had to order it because of the parmesan twinkies!) and the salmon with beet sauce over red rice. all was really good...although the twinkies were more of a novelty...they really didn't go all that well with the caesar. we didn't have room for dessert, but wished we had! dining room is very pleasant although the lighting along the dark walls would have been too dim for my taste. its a neat restaurant!

1st experience. after reading an article on chef ryan impressive resume, i could not wait to sample his work. this was my first visit to the agustin plaza near downtown tucson. it is a beautiful newly designed building paying homage to traditional spanish architecture with a spacious open center courtyard surrounded by several shops and businesses. the good design continues on inside agustin kitchen where the open and clean interiors are comfortable and relaxing. the table spacing is a noticeable blessing to an enjoyable meal. we started with (2) specialty cocktails (richmond gimlet and vodka & ginger) both were original and well prepared,foodstarted with shared calamari, caesar salad and mean greens. all were fresh with ample portions and unique with just the right amount of dressing. my wife had the lamb shank and i had the amish chicken. both dishes were well prepared, tasty with generous portions. the kinks still to be worked out are with timing. our entrees were delivered much too quickly evidenced by the fact that our appetizers were still not finished or cleared from the table and i have never been accused of lingering over my food. it's good for a server to be attentive and to anticipate but from greeting to goodbye our servers anxiety communicated a desperation that almost gave me the impression her job was on the line or this tip had to happen. she performed the individual steps to our meal with textbook memory. i just wish she would have relaxed and enjoyed herself. all in good time one can hope. all in all a very nice new addition to the tucson restaurant scene. i look forward to my return visit to sample more delicious food.

nailing it. upon arriving at the soft opening sunday evening it was apparent that final appointments were not all complete. those distractions soon evaporated as i picked up the drink menu and was whisked away to new york, chicago, l.a. and other places where i first experienced remarkable new flavors. the roasted pepper infused margarita puts tucson on the map. if you’ve experienced chef clark’sfoodat the dish or the lodge, be prepared for the next evolution. of the six appetizers, two salads, and five entrees sampled, i could not declare a favorite (although the perfectly prepared salmon before me was not to be shared). the peaches that finished the evening were reminiscent of east coast excellence. service was good and prices reasonable. for qualityfoodexquisitely prepared in a comfortable environment, chef clark has nailed it.
