RELISH - TUCSON, AZ

 This is the second and last time we will eat at this restaurant located on the corner of Camp Lowell and Swan. When we ate here before it was newly opened and we could understand the lack of patrons. Now 3 or 4 years later, being about the only diners, we know the answer. the food is not very good and the customer service is lacking.

I had pulled pork which i didn't want but there was absolutely nothing else on the menu which interested me; the menu is not big and i remembered having this same decision problem the first time we were here. at that time,  i ordered the grilled chicken sandwich and was duly unimpressed; same gustatory result this time.

Bill ordered the Chef's special which was a New York strip steak mounded on a a pillow of blue cheese infused mashed potatoes surrounded by a pale green sauce. The steak was so tough he could not even cut into it. So he told the waitress and asked for the pulled pork which she brought piled on top of the same mashed potatoes moated with the green sauce.

We were charged for the steak though which was double the price of the pork. The very rare times we have returned an entree; the manager has always come over, apologized and either gave a discount on the meal ticket or offered a free dessert.

We will not be coming here again if they are even open much longer. There was never more than 1 other table of diners in the large  with patio restaurant. and this was over an almost 2 hour span of time on a Saturday night.
