Every meal is a special occasion |
6440 North Campbell Road (Sunrise at Campbell) Tucson, AZ 85718 United States +1 520 299 1771 |
This is the place that Tucsonians flock to for special occasions; with the spectacular views and award-winning cuisine and wines any visit is a memorable experience. Called an "architectural jewel" by many, this fine dining room is sophisticated without being snooty. True to its name, the views of the surrounding mountains and the cityscape to the south are the visual focus of the restaurant. An underground wine cellar houses more than 25,000 bottles with more than 1,400 individual selections. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Passionate flavors and seductive setting |
5605 East River Road Tucson, AZ 85750 United States |
Inspired by the famed world traveler and lover, the menu features classics from Casanova's country, updated to entice modern palates. The setting is sensual as well, with unmatchable Continental couth. Decked out in shades of gold and deep purple, the atmosphere is meant to evoke a Venetian ambience. Glass pieces by local artist Tom Philabaum add to the Italian atmosphere. Without saying as much, one would conclude that there are more than a hint of aphrodisiacal properties to the menu, including the sinfully decadent desserts! The wine list is intercontinental.

Classy dining room |
306 North Alvernon Way Tucson, AZ 85711 United States +1 520 325 3434 |
Located within the recently revamped 1936 hacienda-style Lodge on the Desert, this classy dining room presents some of Tucson's top continental cuisine. Executive Chef John Harings (formerly of L'Auberge de Sedona) has created a French/Mediterranean fusion menu, which is served in a charming, subtly southwestern setting. Muted colors, an abundance of natural light and high-back chairs make for a slightly formal, but serene dining experience. Service is professional and knowledgeable. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Worth its weight in gold |
245 East Ina Road Tucson, AZ 85704 United States +1 520 297 1151 / +1 800 722 2500 (Toll Free) http://www.westwardlook.com |
The Gold Room has been a multiple award-winning restaurant and has long been a Tucson favorite. Located at the naturally breathtaking Westward Look Resort, it has been honored with Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence. It's open and airy with classically elegant furnishings and decor. As you'd expect, gold is used extensively in the color scheme. Floor-to-ceiling windows afford diners a panoramic view of the surrounding desert and mountains. While the menu has recently been given a more modern bent, it still focuses on classic cuisine with a southwestern spin. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Provider of German pastry |
3355 North Dodge Boulevard Tucson, AZ 85716 United States +1 520 323 7101 |
Owner Ilsa Bechert has provided Tucson with authentic German tortes and pastries for many years, and she's still getting better. The selection of confections behind the counter is tantalizing; you'd be well advised to sample some items before buying, just to get the whole range of sweet flavors. German and French bread is made fresh every day, and there is a small dining area where soups, sandwiches, coffee and soft drinks are served. If Ilsa is in, she will most likely come to your table for personal service. She also does catering out of her store for breakfast and lunch meetings, her specialty being to-go platters with assorted finger sandwiches. Delivery, packaging and shipping services are included.
