The Best Seafood in Tucson, by the Record

The best seafood in Tucson, by the professional record: Time Out, Eater, and Tucson Foodie have all weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Kingfisher Bar & Grill comes out on top.

  1. Stained glass, studded leather barstools, and a rotating local art collection give this upscale but decidedly unstuffy bar and grill a vibe that says "been around forever" without trying too hard. The menu leans into seafood, creative cocktails, and an extensive wine list, with a house burger and shoestring fries on hand for anyone who finds fish menus stressful. Regulars tend to know exactly which booth they prefer.
