We were visiting Tucson from Canada and came across this restaurant when planning our trip. We decided to make a reservation to try it out. We were so impressed! We enjoyed a fantastic meal and great service from Todd. (Thank you!) Once we saw the desserts when we entered we had to pace ourselves in order to leave room to try a couple. A difficult task to do, as everything we had was so delicious. Highly recommended!

About the restaurant
Kick off your evening at Sullivan’s with a craft cocktail, whether you prefer our “Knockout” orange-pineapple martini, a “Smoldering” smoking mezcal mule, or an elevated pomegranate cosmopolitan. From there, dive into our mouthwatering bar bites (like our signature sliders or blue cheese chips), or settle in for more formal, equally delicious steakhouse fare. There’s a cut for everyone, whether you’re partial to the “cowboy cut” bone-in ribeye or a classic filet mignon. Pair your steak with crab-stuffed shrimp or a broiled lobster tail for the ultimate surf-and-turf duo.

There’s something in the air that makes Sullivan’s unique: an ambience at the intersection of luxury and cozy familiarity. Enjoy the swingin’ energy of our bar-centric atmosphere, soundtracked by the stylings of local musicians. You’ll be greeted by a staff who remembers you by name, offering personalized recommendations based on your typical favorites.

Went to Mama Louisa's with my husband on our search for a good Italian restaurant in Tucson since we are from NY. We were very pleased. The food was excellent. My husband had the veal parmigiana and I had linguine with white clam sauce. I will admit that my linguine was a bit overcooked but it tasted great. The breadsticks were also very tasty as was the canollli we had for dessert. Our server Redana was excellent. Very friendly and efficient. I would highly recommend this restaurant and plan to return.

Our over all experience was excellent. My only complaint was the food was slow to come out of the kitchen. This was our first time going and will totally go back. The dinner rolls are a must. Ask for a side Caesar salad before the main meal excellent salad. We ordered the short rib and miso black cod both very delicious. Sorry to say we didn’t have room for dessert. We had an excellent waiter and hostess.

Every single bite was amazing! I can’t tell you which dish was the best. The Brussel sprouts amazing! The tartar in general is one of my favorite dishes. The burrata is just a comfort food dish to me. I loved the short rib and the lions main dish as well! I can’t tell you how amazing the food was! The chef is such a sweet chef, and kind. He does an amazing job!
