Over at 198 W. Cushing St., the menu looks absolutely decadent and worth every penny. For example, choose the Fresh Mushroom Soup to kick things off before you dive into the Tartare of Angus Beef with Tonnato. Also, if you can, splurge for the wine pairings.

Plus, The Coronet will be offering free coffee and toast to all who attend, and a tasty Riesling Zero for non-alcohol drinkers will be on hand, too.

They’ll also be having live jazz by Naïm Amor, Thøger Lund, and Ben DeGain from 5 – 8 p.m. in the dining room. Then, from 8 – 11 p.m., and then even more live jams by Golden Boots and Ruby Plains on the patio.

Seats are the dinner are $120 per person and $170 with wine pairings.

When @ginzatucson opened in 2008, it became the first restaurant in Tucson to feature an izakaya style menu, bringing Japan’s popular shareable dining experience to the city. Today, it’s still the only restaurant in town with a dedicated izakaya menu, along with one of Tucson’s largest curated selections of sake, Japanese beer, and shochu.

In 2018, the couple expanded again with @raijinramen, Tucson’s first restaurant dedicated entirely to ramen. Known for its rich tonkotsu broths and seasonal specialties, Raijin helped pave the way for the city’s growing ramen scene.

From fresh fish flown in daily from Japan and California to chef’s choice omakase experiences, Ginza continues to showcase authentic Japanese cuisine while Jun and Diana regularly travel to Japan to bring back the latest culinary trends.

📍 Ginza Sushi & Izakaya: 5425 N. Kolb Rd.
📍 Raijin Ramen: 2955 E. Speedway Blvd.
