Chef Brian’s Comfort Kitchen is truly a hidden gem in Tucson!
The portions are HUGE — definitely come hungry. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The chicken and waffles were absolutely outstanding — perfectly crispy, juicy chicken paired with fluffy waffles that hit that perfect sweet-and-savory balance. Easily some of the best I’ve had.
The fresh tea was crisp and refreshing, and the blueberry punch was incredible — bright, flavorful, and not overly sweet. You can tell they take pride in every detail.
On top of the amazing food, the service was exceptional. Friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish. The atmosphere is warm and comfortable, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal.
If you’re in Tucson, don’t miss this place. We’ll definitely be back!

Chef Brian’s Comfort Kitchen is THE spot for brunch in Tucson. The first thing I noticed when you walk is how eclectic the restaurant appears. The mismatched vintage furniture, flower plated tableware, and serve-yourself-beverage fridge immediately endeared me to the comfort vibe. As I looked in on the open kitchen, Chef Brian (formerly of Top Chef) greeted me with warm Southern hospitality that I might have expected in NOLA, but was a pleasant surprise to experience in Tucson. I had already scouted the menu and knew that I had to try his World Famous chicken and waffles. Previously a private chef to Hollywood royalty, Chef Brian is not shy with unabashedly declaring how good his food is, and from the first bite, I realized why he is so confident. The flavors are AMAZING! From the homemade blueberry punch individually sold in mason jars, to the perfectly cooked (crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside) chicken adorned on top of the hearty waffle, and the herbed mayo (soon to be sold in stores), everything Chef Brian served for my brunch was to die for! There is an extensive menu here, and I cannot wait to go back and try everything. Put this restaurant on your must-go list! Just make sure you come hungry, because I promise you, regardless of the massive portion sizes, the flavors you will experience here will make you want to eat every bite!

10/10 for the chef Brian experience. The food was super delicious, very unique, and it was served with a style and flair that you will rarely find in this world. Shout out to Cashmere in the back also adding to the vibes. This is our new go-to spot when we are passing through Tucson on our drive. Had the salmon cakes, chicken and waffles, and the delicious sweet tea and blueberry tea. Do yourself a favor and come visit!

What an incredible experience earlier today. We met the amazing Chef Brian and his delightful colleague today, the food was simply superb! From the sweet & blueberry teas to the mouthwatering chicken and blueberry waffles, slightly spicy vegan collard greens, and potato salad – every bite was absolute perfection. The portions are huge, so your party will be able to share. We’re already counting down the days until our next visit to try more of the menu.

You have NEVER had fried chicken and waffles as good in your life until you have it from Chef Brian, and you can fight me on this…but you won’t, because after one bite you’ll forget this review, and probably any concept of space and time.
Personal opinion: ask for dark meat…it makes the chicken all the more savory in the mix, and when you dip it in the herb mayo? You’ll forget your native language and regress into grunts and otherworldly noises.
The only, and I mean THE ONLY thing I had wished for was a bottle of Crystal extra hot and a slice of lemon…the blueberry punch is amazing with just the right amount of cinnamon hit to balance out the sweet, but I personally would have used the lemon a bit to get a little tart cut to reset after each mind numbing bite of the star of the show.
Realize this is not hole in the wall prices, but you get what you pay for: an experience in food and passion from the masterful kitchen magician you will never forget. 11/10

My brother was visiting and we decided to order a Thanksgiving meal from Chef Brian’s Comfort Kitchen. The meal came with chicken; which I got the roasted breasts, yams, greens, cornbread and mac and cheese. It was delicious. Everything was cooked fresh and seasoned just right. Brian and his assistant were cool people to meet, and the experience was good. I’ll definitely be back again.

This is home. From the moment you walk in and Chef Brian himself welcomes you, grabs your name and starts cracking jokes. Music is pouring out of a stereo and you watch Chef dancing and singing around his kitchen as he prepares your hefty meal.
This is a place for hearty appetizers and hearts full of love. It’s a truly rare gem tucked next to a flower shop.

Genuinely the most delicious meal I’ve had since moving here. Portions were humongous and every item was so good. Chef Brian was so welcoming and funny, it made the experience even better. Will be returning for breakfast!

10/10 experience no matter where Chef Brian’s business is. There’s something so uplifting and truly welcoming about going to get food somewhere and being welcomed with a warm smile, great food that’s made to order, and great recommendations. The energy is exquisite and the food is warm, filling, delectable, and worth every penny. The pre-2000s music and orange really brings everyone into the same open and inclusive environment and lifts community. Always obsessed.

This is our second time coming to Chef Brian‘s kitchen. This location is definitely hopping. The food is delicious and I guarantee you’ll end up taking the rest home for later if you can Customer service is top-notch, although they are new in this area you feel welcomed and appreciated by the staff and the chef.
Being a retired chef myself I’d call that a win-win familiar delicious food with a new twist.
