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.

IOU Sushi III has closed.

Anne Rysdale built @sheltercocktaillounge in 1961 with concrete walls, lava rock, and Cold War nerves. Today, owners Pam Santangelo and Kevin Breutzmann keep the Tucson bar exactly as regulars remember it. Inside, martinis share space with JFK memorabilia, a vintage atomic chandelier, and a suit of armor named Charlie. “Tucson is changing so much, but this has stayed the same. It’s a time capsule,” Santangelo said.
