American Eat Company

The food is spot on! This is the only place in Tuscon that I was able to find that served their fish & chips with cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, and vinegar. The beer batter on the fish is really crisp. The calamari was crisp, and the coctail sauce went so well with it. Not to mention the fries being nicely breaded and seasoned. I'll be coming back!

There is variety of food to choose from. I think it's a great idea. I came to Walters Pizzeria and it was delicious. Definitely a place to come back and try different things.

The food never disappoints! The atmosphere is always lively. It is a food court setting, so the food options are quite varied. Lines & wait times can be long at peak hours, but there's always plenty of seating. Parking can be tricky, but I've always been able to find a spot- even if it's across the street. Being in the heart of S. 4th Ave means you might encounter a few unfortunate souls on the way in or out, but they do a great job keeping the whole place clean, feeling safe & comfortable.

THE BEST RESTAURANT CONCEPT ♥️ i think this place is sooo great because if you’re with people who may want something different to eat than you then you can choose from a variety of food spots here. it’s basically a building with about 8 built in food spots it’s kinda like a food court but super clean and cute!!! they offer sushi, ramen, pizza, coffee, a bar, and two different Mexican spots! they also are super kid friendly as they offer arcade games. i got a pizza for my son it was a bit too greesy but overall not too bad i probably wouldn’t get it again tho but still love the idea of this place! the mexican food was bomb i got a vampiro from TACOSON! my sister had the ramen and said it was sooo good. the agua fresca from MONSTER SONORAN HOT DOGS was fire i loved it, was so fruity but not too sweet which was great! highly recommend if you’re in the city it’s great for when you have a divided family! ♥️

Always a great place to go eat. Like the variety of foods. Bar is great too!!😊🍻👍

This has to be the go to place when feeling undecided on what you feel like eating. You go here and you have so many choices from hot dogs, carne asada, sushi or even pizza and wings! I love it too because there is even a coffee place and a place to get the best agua frescas to pair with your food of choice. It’s very likely and the dim lighting is a plus as it really feels like you went to a food truck market and are eating outside with friends.

I love that this is "food court" style dining, there are many options to choose from, you can get something for everyone here in one place. It was not too busy, food was great and service was good. I will be visiting again.

Walter’s pizza first time ordering was great . This last Sunday not so much . Ordered a whole pizza pepperoni , ham & sausage . Does this pizza look like it has sausage was told by employees it did have it mind you I’ve had it before and did not look nor taste like this one . Disappointed.

We ate at samurai sombrero for Mexican sushi and both rolls we got were delicious. We got the Vegas roll and samurai roll and they're so good - I'm definitely going back!! We ate it all before I could get a picture. I love that it's in a little food hall kind of feel with arcade games and the walls decorated. There's different choices of food so I'm sure everyone can find something they like there. I originally came for fatboy sandos but I saw a new Japanese place opening up in their spot so they might've permanently closed and moved to park place mall. Service was fast and super friendly!! Great place to come with friends and family

I appreciate this place as a home for up-and-coming dining options that haven't quite graduated to having their own spaces. But it's just not a spot where you can really enjoy your meal. What I like: It has a decent breadth of cuisines, currently boasting Mexican, Mexican Sushi, Ramen, Pizza, and Burgers. What I don't like: It's a bit out of the way, so you'll need to drive, but parking is terrible and can only hold space for a fraction of the customers. We had to use residential street parking nearby at lunchtime. I've tried to come here for dinner before, but every time I was foiled because there was literally nothing available nearby. What I hate: Police feel compelled to hang around outside in the middle of the day because it's near a large homeless encampment and people are just constantly wandering around near the entrance. The atmosphere inside feels like a Peter Piper because there are so many kids running around, there are signs posted warning parents against it. Final verdict: I enjoyed my lunch, but nothing here is good enough to make me want to come back.

I love this concept and haven't been here since pre-COVID but I needed sushi and you all know Samurai is one of the best. With all the options and seating this place is so fun to checkout. You can grab something to eat from one or multiple restaurants, and drinks from other vendors. Then sit and enjoy great people watching inside and out. Check it out if you can. We need an American Eats in the Rita/Vail area.

It's one of our favorite places that has many options to choose. Nice and clean place with easy parking. Many choices of delicious food. Reasonable price. If you come on Sunday, they have mariachi from 11am to 1 pm.

Went to Samurai Sombrero! It was AMAZING!! got a 4 different sushi rolls plus gyoza that are up to my standards coming from California. The owner gaby checked on me and my step mom many times to see how we liked the rolls. She was super nice! Got margaritas at the bar right next to the sushi spot and they were gooood! The food court was awesome looking inside! The area of the food court doesn't look like it's in the greatest spot. A lot of homeless people. Parking wasn't too bad but they had a jolly jumper for the kids in the front parking lot. Will come back on not so busy weekend day!

Monster Sonora dogs are EXCELLENT! Their Ramen is also to die for. El Tacoson Asad and Pastor- must try the Burro Percheron wrapped in bacon is the best thing here to eat.

Four for lunch today, and everyone had a wonderful time. This place is growing on me, the people are so friendly, I love the atmosphere here. Not overcrowded, kinda surprising for a Saturday. I tried the 86 burger, and one of my companions had the double. Same amount of meat (1/2 lb), but one versus 2 patties. What a great burger, perfectly cooked, nice bacon, big slice of tomato. Worth every penny. the sweet potato fries were excellent. My wife had a Sonoran dog, which she judged excellent. Interesting color bun! We'll be back again with new visitors!

Every time I visit, the parking lot is almost full to overflowing. The place is usually packed. Why? This is a big and colorful food hall in an area with not as many comparably fun options. I typically get sushi and am never disappointed sitting here to enjoy the atmosphere while I finish my meal.

The sushi is good but their descriptions are all very similar for the sushi rolls It does take them time to prepare them

Stopped by to try Samurai Sombrero Sushi. Service was great, friendly and fast. Lots of seating available and everyone was friendly. I like that they change out the different restaurants so you can try other businesses. I've had Samurai Sombrero when it was a food truck and the quality has not changed.

Tasty options and ample seating. My group got burgers, caramel I from the taco spot, and all enjoyed our options! Tacos had a salsa bar, too.

I was so surprised at how flavorful this food was. Probably one of the best burgers I've have in a long time. Kitchen 86 really went over and beyond when it comes to gourmet burgers. Seasoned throughout and juicy. Even the impossible burger had an amazing depth of flavor. The carne asada fries I tried were delicious I just wished the fries were seasoned or something. It tasted like it's missing a little something that would take it to that next level but still a good choice. The atmosphere is cute, great place for when you don't know what you want to eat, because there's plenty of restaurants to choose from here. Highly recommend and will definitely be back to try the sushi restaurant here.

Yep, this is a fun and funky little food hall! We've eaten here several times and frankly, the $7 Birria Quesadillas from Monster Sonoran Hot Dogs is the bomb. Extremely rich and satisfying, this $7 bargain is hard to beat and will definitely fill you up. Go early and beat the crowd.

This is a food court in South Tucson. One end of it is a noisy bar. The other end is a bunch of restaurants. Not quite as noisy but not exactly quiet. It's a fun place with lots of different food and drink options.

There is a lot to take in at this place. You are sure to find something to satisfy your craving or to fins something new that's spectacular.

I'm so glad I stopped in to check this place out! Cool and unique variety of food stalls which made choosing what to eat a little hard, so I chose a lot of things! Fatboy Sandos was delicious! We tried thr onigiri, pork katsu sando and a fruit filled dessert sando! So good! Monster dogs hit it out of the park with one of the best Sonoran dogs I've had in awhile. Nacho dog was perfection! Lots to do and see here!

The food is ok, but I will never recommend this place as long as the staff and customers remain trashy. Atmosphere is tense and ghetto. I mean that wholeheartedly. Long story short, family were basically made to feel very unsafe and practically chased out by customers and followed on bikes. Keep in mind these are kids being harassed by "men". I will make a cursory report and ensure that the trash sees itself out. In the meantime, there are hundreds of amazing restaurants in Tucson. Don't settle for a glorified food court with problems.

Awesome spot. I love food halls because I can get a little taste of everything. I think that have a good variety of options here, and plenty of seating all around. We came close to closing so we hope to be back another time for sure in order to get the whole experience!

Ambiance: Indoor/outdoor food court with plenty of options and seating. Service: Efficient and personable. Food: Had a couple of the places inside and it's fairly decent! I'm a fan of FatBoy Sandos! Overall, cool place to hangout in groups that may want different types of foods. Especially when it's hot out since there's in-door seating!

With a variety of vendors, you can never get tired of eating here. I had the monster tots from one of the vendors while my daughter got sushi. The next time I went, I tried the fried calamari and sopes. Nummy! You gotta try it!

You walk in and it's a nice vibe with central seating and the little eateries surrounding area. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety. Mexican seafood, Mexican food, and Sonoran hot dogs then you have Japanese cuisine, sandwiches and other stuff. We tried the Japanese food it was pretty good. My companion thought a little salty but ok. Decent portions. Food was served in to go boxes not plates. It seemed very busy with workers on lunch break so maybe that's why. Some places prices were decent others super high. For example we ordered two drinks and they wanted $16. What? So crazy to charge $8.00 each for Agua Frescas. Not my favorite place or experience. My companion doesn't want to go back

Um, wow. All I can say. I never heard about this place before and in fact, it never even appeared on my Yelp radar when looking for places to try near downtown while were in Tucson for a few days. It came up on Google maps and I'm so glad it did! This place is wild! Semi-loud music playing in the background, with a myriad of various food stalls lining the walls. We honestly didn't know what to get; everything sounded so good, so we settled on: * Cheese pizza * Sonoran dog * Caramelo - ( $6.50) * Sopes - ($5.50) * Twisted Watermelon-Strawberry Agua Fresca * Barrio Blonde Beers Everything was good except the Sonoran dog. I got the "regular" or small version, and it was not using a bacon-wrapped hot dog, so not technically a Sonoran dog by my standards. The caramelo and sopes were excellent, and even the cheese pizza was VERY good - hot, cheesy...as perfect as you can imagine it should be. The "twisted" style agua fresca was beautiful and huge. Our kid couldn't drink it all. For the beers, we had to go "in the back" which is like this whole other side of the building. Just huge with a full bar. We seriously like how this place is laid out. Overall cannot wait to come back and try more stuff. I noticed I could not find a menu at the mariscos stall at all, otherwise all of the other menus were on brightly-lit boards and many with photos of the food. Love this place!

This place has such a great vibe, a great place to go to with family and friends. So many good restaurants to pick from and 2 different bars. Great seating both indoor and outdoor. Something great for the whole family to enjoy! Go check this place out!

We like this place so much because everyone can get something different and we can sample a little of everything! Everyone I've interacted with at each business has been really nice, and I haven't had a bad dish yet. It's busy nearly all the time but we haven't had an issue being seated together at all. The only issue I have ever had here was that some of the places are open when a couple are not. If they had the same hours it would be optimal, but I understand that it's not always feasible.

BEST PLACE EVER, you know why? So if you're a kid is coming to eat here, go to Restaurant 86 I got chicken nuggets and for dessert go to ADIS get churro cart it's so cool and tasty. The service for both restaurants is amazing. The outside looks old but the inside looks great.

First off it's in a really bad place there's homeless and drug users on the street around the area. The homeless seem to avoid the area. Hopefully a few of the restaurant hospitality people explain it to these cockroaches in terms they can understand. The parking is limited but acceptable There is a bar area, and there is a feedlot area. On the outskirts, there's little corners and outside zones to eat. The restaurant was acceptable, cleaned, and all trash was cleared quickly and efficiently. They have a full-time staff or that all he does is clean. The restaurant did not smell like urine, body odor or harsh chemicals. Surrounding the food lot area there's a bunch of different feeding stalls, which after you take your order, they'll deliver a number to your table and give you your food. The soda pops are delivered at the place you bought it and then you fill it up in the middle basic no thrills however there's opportunity to buy it liquor if you require it as well as ice cream and stuff I ordered three fish tacos when they came they were 3 Fish Steet tacos And so did my companion, and they weren't cheap. However the food was decent. It was tasty. It looked good. But it wasn't filling. If you bring a party of four and want to get filled, I would expect the pay $$80-$120 It was an interesting experience, however, one I am not gonna repeat I can't complain about the food quality. It was just too little and safety issues. Worry me, including the door, which is not up the code for handicap people there's no handicap button the door weighs a ton, and I literally had to push my back Against the door to let in my handicap person that was with me that couldn't open the door in 1 million years nor leave the door as well. If there was a fire on their own I don't consider this a problem because everybody be rushing out perhaps there was another exit that would've been easier, but we used the front door in and out.

Great spot with lots of options. Had quesa birras and they were amazing. Along with a agua Fresca that was top notch. Highly recommend checking it out.

This is always a great experience and we usually end up over eating because we want a little bit of everything. We tried the sliders from Coop. The bbq was our fave! The Monster Dog birria tacos and quesadillas are always a hit. They also have really great birria dipping juice. We tried the Sangria from the Market Bar and that was refreshing and delicious. It wasn't too packed and we were able to get a booth.

What a cool idea. Bring the whole family something for everyone. Very clean. Several different places and types of food to choose from. Bar included. The service is great each vendor delivers to your table.

This place has such a fun concept and great execution. So many great restaurants all in one place and a stellar bar so that no matter where you get food from you can have an equally as awesome drink on the side. I've been here a few times, and I have had food from 6 of the places inside and I have yet to try something that I don't like. Burgers, ceviche, nachos, salads, ice cream, EVERYTHING IS STELLAR. You literally cannot go wrong with anything on any menu. Great work here!

THE COOP These were the BEST Buffalo Chicken Fries I've ever had. I love all the Buffalo sauce but man this chicken was the star of the show just so flavorful and cooked to perfection! I HIGHLY recommend! Our group also had the tenders and fries and said they were also super juicy and seasoned so good, the chicken tasted "fresh" and real lol. "They tasted better than Raising Canes". The slider was also really good but I was filled by the fries in all honestly. I can't wait to go back again and try everything on their menu. 100% recommend especially if you have picky eaters, I mean tenders and fries can't go wrong but like these were off the charts!

Came to get some coffee, stayed for the food and vibes. I was able to watch my lecture and not be home to do it. Looking forward to coming here during the week to work. They also have karaoke on Wednesday!

This is basically a free standing food court. On the plus side that means that there are a lot of options. Unfortunately, it's also very loud and there is nowhere near enough seating, inside or out. I went there with a friend. Her food, a Sonoran dog, was awesome and she thoroughly enjoyed it. My food was not as good. I got the pizza and it was awful. It was greasy, did not have enough cheese, and the crust was burnt cardboard. I had wanted to try a few other things from another booth in the venue, but no one seemed to be manning it despite it saying it was open. I would not go again. It's far too loud for me.

Such a cool concept; American Eat Co's food court features different local restaurants - a nice place to stop if you have a group of people who are craving different things to eat and can't agree on one thing. You order at each food stall and then choose a table in the main dining area and food is brought out to your table. We've been here twice and have left satisfied overall. Our favorites have been Fatboy Sandos (the furikake fries and strawberries and cream dessert sandwich are so good) and COOP (solid chicken tenders and fries - the chicken is tender and juicy and not too greasy despite being fried). For fancy "twisted" agua frescas, try ADIS. Monster Sonoran is solid if you're craving Mexican food - my husband really enjoyed their Sonoran dogs; the birria tacos were pretty good but we've had better around town. Definitely will be coming back to try more of their other food stall options!

I came here for a family gathering to celebrate a graduation. They were able to reserved our family a large table at 11am. Although we wanted to celebrate early with a few drinks we found out that the main bar doesn't open till noon, but it was totally ok because we all waited. They have soooo mang options of food places to choose from. I felt this place had a hipster kinda vibe and it was welcoming. I enjoyed my food especially the agua chiles and elote and oh gosh so many other food options. I definitely recommend coming here and will most definitely be coming back again.

Perfect for a big group of people that want different foods. My kids got the pasta and pizzas, while I got carne asada tacos and a coffee Togo. They also have very good agua frescas that are 'insta worthy'

If you want variety come Here. Mexican , Burger ,, Pasta , Coffee . You order at the counter then they bring it to you . Clean

Great atmosphere for everyone. There were families, college students, couples, and so many more. Live music on Sunday funday was great and you can't go wrong with any of the food.

It's an okay place good food too friendly environment as well i recommend this place

Great food and choices. Not from the area so was a little surprised by the neighborhood, but can 100% tell this place is doing big things for the community. A little challenging to find a spot to sit on a Sunday afternoon.

Something for everyone! Nice outdoor area. Inside cool and and packed. Had a small buffet today and enjoyed every bite. Baabby when I tell you The Coop is on to something! Not your average chicken tender. Waay better than Canes and its local! The Spicy (pico, cabbage, pepper jack cheese, and a spicy vinaigrette) is the most well balanced in flavors and textures. The calamari at Kitchen 86 is simply delicious. Lightly breaded cooked perfectly and comes with a little salad. Not sure what the dressing was had very little. The Street Corn not very street. Zero flavor and not cooked enough. A torch to roast it a bit would have done miracles. Last but not least..Fatboy Sandos!! The Furikhake Fries and Chicken Karrage warrants another visit. Definitely wish the chicken was cut into smaller pieces. The breading was a little doughy. Still so so yummy!! America Eats great job!! Can't wait for my next visit. The service great at all three places.

Food service and music was great! It is a great place to hang out after work with coworkers or just enjoy a bite and drink

Hielotos in American Eat Company has the best raspados! My beloved and I were at the street fair this weekend and they had shaved ice but I don't like the syrups and artificial preservatives they put in those things so I told him "let's go to our absolute favorite place and get the good stuff!" I love the strawberry and my partner loves the pineapple. This time we mixed things up and I got the strawberry & mixed it with mango and he got all mango. Both were delicious!!! Strawberry is still my fav but any are absolutely delicious! They are piled high with real fruit and we get ice cream and leche on ours. I highly recommend! Anytime we wanna escape the heat and grab something cool, we're heading here !

First time trying this place,it was a good experience. It's like a food court of mostly Mexican street food. There's one Italian food stand and sandwich stand. The Biria Footlong dog is really good. I wish I have enough room to try everything. The Biria ramen is something to look forward to,next time.

Great to have options for family members that want different items for dinner. It is like a food court at a mall but no mall. Lol My granddaughter had spaghetti from Walters Pizzeria and she loved it and my daughter had a Carne Asada Ramen from Monster Sonoran which was delicious. And then my daughter and I also had food from El Bochas. I had the mango ceviche, and she had a cerviche tostada. Both were excellent and the house sauce was just right. Sorry no pictures this time but it was scrumptious

Great service and a wide selection of options. All the food is great, we sampled everything. I highly recommend it.

Coming back to this neighborhood years after AEC opened, and it's great to see it busy and thriving with more than two businesses with undependable hours. Hot take: get some more garbage cans and bussing stations for customers. People are frantically looking for seating and running in circles to bus their own table to make room for the next customers. I walked the circumference of the building trying to throw my trash away, and half the trash cans said "this is not a trashcan" Make a map as you enter with a description of the restaurants, where they are at, and the menus. It's a carnival and it's a fucking free for all for no necessary reason.

My wife and I went here for a work party. It had a really cool layout, with the first area set up like a small market with different resturants. There was a back room with a full bar, plenty of seating, and a dance floor. There were a lot of good looking options to try, but I settled on Monster Sonoran. They had different gourmet hot dogs and sides. I ordered the Sonoran dog and the not-cho dog. Both were super delicious and packed high with toppings. I especially liked the not-cho dog since it was smothered in nacho cheese.

If I could, I would give this place as a whole, 3.5 stars but since we're rounding, I'm being generous and rounding up for all the potential this place holds. It's better than "Okay" but for me there's just something missing. Half of the places listed or photographed here on Yelp as being inside this food-court, have since been replaced or shut down. I think when it first opened, it was probably much more worth the hype but as many of the places inside this little food court came and went, it's lost a bit of its luster. Don't get me wrong, this place has amazing potential but if it were really that good, I'd be here more often considering how close it is to places I frequent. It's like a Anaheim Packing District on a microscopic scale with a Tucson twist. It's right off 22nd street, just north of the South Tucson area so it's a chill, slightly trendy, slightly modern take on a food court eatery without being too gentrified. It does get pretty busy some nights, but others it can be really chill. It's a great option for when you want "whatever." -- You know the age old question between friends. "What do you want to eat?" -- "Whatever!" It's easy and low-pressure because everyone can get what they want, plus there is a bar so you can easily have a quick round of beers with friend. If you have yet to stop by, definitely give this place a try.
