food lacks quality. we have been to saguaro corners three times since it opened - once the first week, second time a couple weeks later, and most recently this evening.
the first time we were there, we realized that it was the first week in production and understood that it was a new operation. we did not complain when some of the food was cold and took a long time to arrive. we did think it was odd that the wings came uncut. here we were expecting hot wings, and we got this huge plate of full size wings. was not appealing at all.
on our second visit, the food was better. nothing i would rave about, but better than my first visit. there was live music and it was wonderful. the 6th street band played that night and they were awesome. it is such a beautiful setting out at saguaro corners, and so right for a perfect desert evening in tucson.
tonight, i ordered chicken tortilla soup and i came across a 3 inch strip of boiled chicken skin, bumps and all. just gross. spoiled my appetite. i tried to eat my second item which was calabacitas over rice and beans. i don't eat white rice, so i asked if i could just have it over black beans, but was told no, it was a mixture. i had like 5 black beans total when it was brought to me. but that wasn't the worst...it was the what seemed like days old squash...mushy....that was awful.
the staff is really nice. they are trying. i don't think it is a staff issue at this point. it seems to be a food quality issue. aside from the issues i have already raised, they have very little if any healthy options. we see what happened when i tried to get black beans and no white rice. throughout the menu, it is chicken thighs they serve, not chicken breast. just seems like the focus is delivering on the cheap. that is a shame. hope it changes. wouldloveto take my family there and have a better experience and am always looking for new, cool places to take my large client parties.
