This steakhouse was really unique. The atmosphere was warm and comfortable, with a nice balance of upscale and relaxed. The service was friendly and attentive, and everything came out just right. The steak was tender, flavorful, and clearly high quality. The sides were just as good, especially the mashed potatoes. It’s not the cheapest place, but the food and experience make it well worth the price. Overall, a great spot for a nice dinner or chill night out.

FLAVOR 👌🏾 Been wanting to try Forbes Meat Company for a while now and finally made it. Stopped in for lunch and it didn’t disappoint! Great decor and a very welcoming atmosphere. Many meat options to buy and take home. They have a bar also with many options. Spoke with one of the staff about some of the products and they were able to give me all the answers to the questions that I had. I chose to go with the burger and fries this time. Fantastic food with tons of flavor!! They also offer the Mexican cokes in the glass bottles which is my go to when eating out when available. I can’t wait to go back and try one of their steak options. All I can say is go and experience Forbes Meat Company asap! Most likely the best burger in Tucson!!! Unbelievable burger 🍔

We did love the burgers and fries. Burgers lacked seasoning and the fries had something we didn't care for. We did not get the ketchup we asked for, so we only had the sauce. It was just not great flavor for us. We don't go out to eat much so not sure we'll be back. The atmosphere was a nice vibe.

I’ve been to Forbes multiple times for both dinner and breakfast, and it’s always fantastic. The service, food, atmosphere, and drinks are all top-notch. Some items are a little pricey, but you truly get what you pay for — and in my opinion, it’s worth every penny. Forbes delivers quality and consistency every time. Highly recommend! The carrot cake is so delicious.

This is got to be one of our favorite spots here in Tucson. We’ve been here 4 times now for dinner and breakfast. The steak Fritz with the beef tallow fries! So good! and if you do breakfast only Friday, Sat and Sun. Try the Wagyu steak and eggs, and don’t forget the side of tater tots, also deep fried and beef tallow! definitely gonna try the breakfast burrito next time. The Green chorizo muscles, and the oysters were also very fresh and delicious. And don’t forget to grab a four pack of the green chorizo on the way out and any other grass fed beef in any cut you can imagine. Must try spot!!

Amazing experience during my first visit to Forbes. The bartender was very knowledgeable and helpful in picking out food and drinks for the night. We sat near the kitchen and you could tell they were very passionate on the food they were serving. The Caesar salad was delish and the halibut was incredible! Definitely check them out if you're in the area, it's a small place and fills up quick! They also have a full meat market in there too!

First time to checkout this place for lunch. Lively atmosphere with great & attentive service. Food was really delicious and the fries were excellent. Lots of good wines to select and take home, definitely worth a visit

My girlfriend and I, took my daughter and her boyfriend. We started at the bar with some fun beers and mixed drinks. We were seated quickly at a large table for 4. The service was fast and pleasant. The food "meat and oysters" was amazing. We all said to ourselves, we're coming back here again.

New JEWEL in Tucson!! Stopped in for a wonderful dinner of Steak Frites and a salad. Service like the food was truly amazing. Forbes is a superb locally owned meat company / butcher shop and restaurant that specializes in top of the line steaks and fresh seafood. The atmosphere is modern industrial with a beautiful open kitchen. This is a MUST VISIT restaurant if you are in southern Arizona. There is plenty of Back-In parking off 6th just north of the modern grey and black 3 story building. Forbes is accessible from the front of back of the structure.

So impressed. Came for a work lunch meeting and amazing food. Highly recommend. 10/13/2025Update.. I've been here so many times now and love to take first timers. People are always so impressed. I have never had bad service or an average meal. There's a female server there with short hair that is such a sweetheart .I got to get her name next time!

If I could give Forbes 10 stars, I would. The first time I ate here I declared it would be the only place I ever ate from now on. Of course, that hasn’t happened but I still would. The steak sandwich is amazing. It’s my go to place for oysters and I’ve had the best sashimi there. Not to mention the best butcher shot in Tucson.

This spot is special and really impressed me. Food was fresh and delicious, one of the best lunches I’ve had in a long while. I highly recommend trying the oysters here. The steak frites and lobster roll were to die for. Really neat spot to …

My first time at FMC and it was the best experience I’ve had in Tucson in my 3 years here. The Breakfast Burrito is the best burrito I’ve ever had! Thank you Harvey and Tonya for making me feel at home! I will be back….often! :)

This is a pretty new place in Tucson and they were very under prepared for the throngs that descend upon Tucson for the gem and mineral show every February. We had a reservation and a group of 8 and we were put outside in the parking lot, …
