| - Went here with a bunch of colleagues while in Mesa. The place has a great location, history, atmosphere and building. The food was OK, but not great. When I go to a steak house (that requires reservations), it better be ready to impress. This place has been around so long that it has become complacent in the service and food they are serving.
Like another reviewer said, the bread is fantastic, but if it's the high-light of your meal, there's a problem. I started with a chintzy (why so small?) Caesar salad and then an 8 oz. filet and baked potato(also really small). I ordered medium, but got medium well. The steak was edible, but not delectable. The potato was so baked that I could only eat about 3/4 of the potato inside.
IMO: the two sides included with your meal should not include the salad. It would have been nice to have something else on my plate rather than just meat and starch.
Final say - better than a Denny's or Applebee's steak, not even close to Ruth's Chris quality.
Tucson comparison would be El Coral quality of food and ambiance, but not as good as Fleming's or Sullivan's.
