Five-star restaurants in Tucson
UpdatedBasing your dining choices on Yelp reviews can be risky. You don't know how many of the reviews were done by friends of the owners or how many were made by exes of the owners.
But we decided to take a look anyway. The restaurants that made this list had to have more than two reviews and they had to have at least two reviews in 2017. A lot could have changed in a year. We supplied the most recent reviews here.
We included addresses and phone numbers when available. Since many are food trucks, there's no guarantee they will be at the same spot tomorrow. The restaurants are not listed in any particular order.
