Here’s a list of some restaurants who’ve made waves with their shell-less lobster dishes in Tucson.
Who would’ve thought that a donut cafe and bar would serve up a mean lobster dish? Well it’s true. Try their Mac & Cheese + Lobster or their Knuckle & Claw grilled cheese with lobster (obvs), mascarpone, provolone, and some healthy stuff.
