The Monica

The Monica is a beautiful, fresh, airy, and new restaurant. The menu has excellent healthy food options. There are plenty of seating options, such as; cozy indoor table and chairs, counter, patio tables, and outdoor lounge seating. Food and drinks are ordered at the counter-register, and the staff brings the order to your table. The wait for food and beverages is minimal (10 minutes). The food is hot and delicious. Monica‘s is the beginning of a fresh and new Tucson vibe. Check them out!

We weren't sure what to expect but it's definitely a different kind of eating establishment. There's a lot of those around Tucson and we love it. It's a very open and airy eating establishment. You walk up and place your order and they give you a number that you take to your table. They have bench seating along the front window and very casual seating around the restaurant as well as outdoor seating on artificial turf with a lot of space heaters. They offer live music as well on certain evenings from what I've read. Food was quite good. We ate breakfast there but I'm sure lunch and dinner are equally good.

This place is only 6 weeks old at the time of this review! I'm left in wow and awe at the immaculate attention to detail and well thought out business plan. Quite a unique experience worth your time! From the helpful and friendly staff to the layout and to the delicious, multifaceted food choices this place has earned 5 stars easily. My partner and I WILL be returning. 😀 ❤️ 💯 🌟

DOWNTOWN TUCSON DELIGHT
A new concept in open casual dining in the heart of downtown. Order at the counter and your food and drink are brought to your table.
We ate at dinner 5 on a Monday and found a table in the spacious open outdoor patio. The atmosphere is an inviting modern industrial theme.
Tonight we had steak and salmon which were delicious but we found it curious that we were asked if we wanted mashed potatoes or fries. Turned out these were in addition to the rice that came with the meal??
The mashed potatoes were outstanding! However, the fries cold and soggy.
We will definitely be back and try some other options.
