“Sure, we’re known for our delicious, scratch-made smash burgers, wings, and tacos, but our love of high-quality food doesn’t end at comfort classics,” the team at Redbird Scratch Kitchen + Bar shared. “We like to take things up a notch for special events and holidays. And since we put so much love into everything we do, we thought, ‘What better day to get classy than Valentine’s Day, a.k.a. the day of love?'”
From 2 – 10 p.m. on Wednesday, February 14, Redbird will be dimming the lights and transforming into a high-end steakhouse to host a candlelit, four-course dinner. There’s going to be a set food menu (no substitutions) and a special wine and cocktail list.
Seats are $130 per person and include a celebratory cocktail to kick things off before the four courses. Space is going to be very limited so you’ll want to make a reservation by calling (520) 495-5353 or by reserving a spot online.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
