Frost Gelato

It’s not an ice cream which means only 3% to 8% butterfat - less the guilt and more of the good stuff. Gelato at Frost may be one of the silkiest and coolest frozen treats you could possibly have and with so much assortment of flavors and add on to play with!

Shlomo and Vito

A New York delicatessen in Tucson. This is how this gem of a restaurant is often described. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and we thank the heavens for it. Everything is just a sinful taste of what the gods and goddesses must eat.

Recommendations: breakfast entrees and gluten-free desserts

OPA!

With OPA, you can never tell what it is. Is it the atmosphere that reverberates between modern chic and traditional Mediterranean or the simply fabulous and too good to be true food?
