We have eaten at many places in Tucson but here is our favorite:
JBar at the Westin La Paloma in the foothills.
It is the casual section of the famous Janos restaurant (many say, Tucson's best gourmet restaurant). The J Bar features southwestern cuisine - like barbecued pork, flank steak, trout, Mexican-style chicken - but prepared in a highly sophisticated way. And the price level is very reasonable.

The Gold Room (in Westward Look Resort, foothills) and the Wildflower (Casa Adobes Shopping Plaza, foothills) are also recommendable but more fine dining.

For Thai food try Bangkok Cafe on Speedway and Tucson streets. There is not much atmosphere, but the food is excellent and very reasonable. Korean food and sushi are good at Sushi Garden which is popular with U of A students. Also give a second vote to Manuels in Green Valley for great Mexican food at reasonable prices. Also LaPacita (spelling?) right off the second exit (from Tucson) for GV is good if the wait at Manuels is too long. There is a small, family run, great Greek restaurant by the Spice Shop on the frontage road south of GV on the way to Tubac. Tubac is fun for art and tourist shopping, but the food is pricey there as it is a tourist draw. Enjoy!
