Guadalupe Huerta
Everything was good, the service was great by Celest she was very attentive. This was our first time here and we are coming back. I had the steak burger and was good. We share the fried pickles, calamari and the skin potatoes. No complaints about it….

Very informal place with a large menu and many beer options. A decent outdoor seating area. Food is excellent! Some of the best nachos I've had, and the side of mac and cheese is amazing. Others had the fish and chips, salmon and sautéed cod and said they were all very good. Service was acceptable. One of our favorite places in Tucson.

Mixed feelings. Food was delicious, portions were big, and it all arrived in a reasonable amount of time considering how busy they were. (And they are ALWAYS busy.) Burger not cooked as requested, but still good. It took several attempts to get some things we requested at the time we ordered. Order taken by waitress, appetizer delivered by a different person (who did not return with a requested item), meal delivered by yet another person (who also didn't return with a requested item.) Eventually got our stuff but pretty late in the meal. And then we went thirsty after our waitress vanished. We were about to go try to get refills ourselves when she finally appeared. She apologized, but by that time we were almost done eating. She was very friendly, and trying hard I suppose. The food was VERY good but it was a shame the experience was impacted by the service. And finally I will say that the place is... filthy. We sat on the patio, which is an otherwise great spot, but the entire patio surface is BLACK with years of grime. I don't think it has been touched since the place opened. The table surfaces need some attention as well. They all have that sticky feel of accumulated grime. Two words Trident... pressure washer. It'll change your world. Maybe I shouldn't be so critical of a "bar patio" but naturally it makes you wonder about the kitchen. Not a good thought.

Broke from the original location on Speedway to try a new ‘environment’. Nice patio, bellied up to the bar and split the Reuben with iron rings. Decent Reuben, fresh / clean tasting, crispy rings and cold pints on draft. Service was good. I realize the menus are the same at each location, and while this is a cool patio if there is a group meet up – I prefer the overall vibe at the original location on Speedway. Keep up the good work Trident II and thank you.

As a 25 yr veteran high volume operator out of Chicago, I make sure to hit up this spot each time I visit my son at U of A. Quite simply, these guys run a great operation. Big Menu with top notch fresh a d flavor profiles. Fish n Chips is of the highest quality. Amazing salads. Premium Sliders and Angus Burgers. They have a young staff they've trained well. The girls move, hustle and have a friendly attitude. We also have visited the Ina Road location and found it also to be stellar. Prices very fair in today's marketplace. Tuscon and U of A parents are very lucky to have a restaurant group like this

I really enjoy any food I've ever had. Here the service is on point about 8.5 / 10 times. Had a server forget to cash us out/ hand us off before they left their shift once. But other than that I really enjoy the crab stuffed mushrooms they are excellent. And they cook a great burger.
Penelope Holbrook
The absolute best red potato salad I have ever had!!! Actually, everything was amazing. We started with the stuffed mushrooms, and the sauce was the perfect combo. My steakhouse burger was cooked perfectly and was delish with the house Cab. My son loved the California BLT, and I have never seen so much bacon. We will absolutely be back!!!
