The Parish

My brother and I tried this place for the first time on 2/29/20, so we were able to dine in during that time. I believe our waiter's name was Lawson, and he was very friendly and efficient. Always checked up on us and kept our drinks filled. We loved the vibe and decor. Laid back atmosphere for sure. The food was spectacular and had such great flavors. Really looking forward to when we are able to dine in this fine place again.

Double yum. The hushpuppies are to die for. Though remember if you order the gumbo it's comes with them so don't go too crazy ordering them as a side, I ate my extras for dessert. The collards are super tasty. Love the mix of southern and South West. Staff was super attentive and friendly. Would happily eat here again!

I really wanted to like this place. I will likely give it another try. I had the short rib which was very good. My partner had the sweet tea smoked chicken, which we had initially expected to be boneless. The barbeque sauce was extremely sweet. Through dinner we had heard other tables offered bananas foster and bread pudding. Bananas foster is my favorite dessert so I was really excited, but was told it was not ready yet when we attempted to order it. Considering what bananas foster is, this seemed a bit strange. We ordered the bread pudding after this and it did not seem anywhere near as good as other reviews state. It was way too dry, and the caramel sauce didn't taste like rum at all. There were golden raisins that did not compliment the dessert. Also my large amount of leftovers was piled into a box that was too small. Most things were good but some parts of this dinner were very disappointing.

One of our three favorite restaurants in Tucson and we've been here 18 years. The place is vibrant without being noisy and you can tell that the servers love working there as much as we love eating there! An extraordinary chef with original ideas and a loyal following. If you want to impress visitors without breaking the bank, this is the place! Try the Drunken Angel or the Gumbo with hush puppies. Yum!

From out of town and Sarah waited on our table. We didn't have reservations on Sunday night, so had to wait for 15 minutes while plenty of tables were empty. Suggest making rervations it is a busy place. Food was excellent, service after we were seated was excellent. Good portions, almost too much and a little on the pricey side but I never mind paying a little more for great food and great ambiance. The music was a little on the loud side but we were still able to hold a conversation at our table. The vibe is modern and cool. P.S I had the special for that evening, a monstrous beef rib. It was yummy!
