“Durazo’s Poco Loco specialty salsas are Absolutely the Best!!! Adela the proprietor has so many different selections, from mild to spicy, fruity, something for everyone. The crab dip is amazing, and her Jalapeño crema is one of my favorites and depending on the season Adela has the Best Bloody Mary mix in mason jars that are so full of olives and the tastiest ingredients, love at first sip!!! So with that being said, if you’ve never tired her products it’s an Absolute Must I promise you’ll love them as we all do!!! She is at the farmers markets and on Facebook. Thanks Adela for doing you, keep up the great work ♥️♥️♥️”

“The staff was very nice but doing presentations was truly eye opening. The room was clean but the tables were horrible ,peeling veneer with duct tap to add skid row ambience and no table cloths and some of the chairs smelled like feces. Recessed broken outlets in floor are a broken ankle waiting to happen. If you are trying to make an impression with a high ticket service or product”

“Really love this place! What a Tucson treasure. We made a special trip to see the traveling exhibit of the art work created from trash washed ashore around the world. Very interesting and sad. Great to see the rest of the gardens again. It's more than just the wide variety of beautiful plants and flowers. Sit and soak in the sounds and the smells. The happy people experiencing the garden! Dining was a bust - food truck in lieu of Cafe with one person serving everyone. Hope that's going to be fixed!”

“We had our wedding on February 22nd, 2024. Overall it was a seamless, phenomenal experience!!One of the biggest pros of the venue is how much is included in the base pricing.1) The Venue. Absolutely gorgeous venue, the mountain and desert views are stunning. The ceremony area is gorgeous, the reception area is cozy and warm, and there are many photo-op locations! The venue also has a staggering number of centerpieces, silk flowers, table clothes, decorations, you name it! We donated a few of the extra things we bought for our wedding, and it’s wonderful knowing that our donated wedding decorations may be used for other beautiful weddings.2) The staff. Extremely knowledgeable and on top of it! They set up everything for the ceremony/reception and took it down after. Everything was set up exactly as we had envisioned it, it was absolutely perfect. Made our wedding so stress-free. They had everything bundled up and ready to go the next day, so we could pick everything up easily.3) Wedding Planner. Having a wedding planner who comes with the venue was incredibly helpful. Debi walked us through the wedding day procedure and was very quick to answer any questions we had! She was wonderful to work with.4) DJ. I didn’t realize how important a DJ would be for my wedding until about a week before! We worked with Tim, and he made sure our reception went smoothly. Very smart and fun music choices and checked in on us occasionally to see if we needed anything. He was in charge of mic’ing people up, and from what my guests tell me, everyone was perfectly hearable!5) Food. The venue went through three different caterers during our planning. When we signed on in December 2022, they were moving to a new caterer. In January of 2023, they moved onto the third caterer, Edge Catering. While it was stressful having to pick new meals for everyone, the caterer and venue absolutely nailed it! We had a lot of vegetarians with specific diet restrictions, and everyone got exactly what they needed! It was a huge weight off my shoulders to see everyone enjoying the delicious food. The Edge Catering was a star, and I’m guessing the venue will stick with them!Our perfect wedding could not have happened without the Buttes at Reflections. I’m so grateful to them, and I absolutely recommend them.”

“From the moment we met, I knew she was the one. For us. To be in charge of our wedding. Samantha Hay LITERALLY made our day so freaking amazing, and we will forever be grateful for her and her team.Finding a wedding venue/coordinator reminded me a lot of dating. You show up, you have small talk, you laugh awkwardly, and then at the end you say, "We'll be in touch," without ever intending on making a move.When we met Samantha, we knew she was different. She made us laugh (like, REALLY laugh). She set clear expectations on what she could offer. And she didn't put any pressure on us. It was AAHHHMAZING. In our brief meeting, I knew she was the one.We booked a wedding five months out and began planning immediately. She gave us a checklist of things to think about as well as local vendor recommendations (a must for newbies like us!) She helped structure our day while giving us the flexibility of choosing what it will look like, when things would happen, and where things should go ... not to mention the full service bar! We brought the booze (hello, Costco!) and her team served the drinks. Our guests were extremely happy with how the evening flowed and we got so many compliments about how wonderful the staff was all night long.There are so many things that I appreciate about Samantha. From her ability to plan and carry out large events to stepping in and taking over when I got overwhelmed to her willingness to meet a bride where she's at (laughing, crying, and sometimes both) up and through the day of the wedding.Having watched countless wedding movies and never planned one myself, I know that it's easy for chaos to ensue. Samantha and her team never once made me feel like things were out of control. I had complete faith in her and she made all of our dreams come true.As I end this love letter to Samantha Hay and her team, my only regret is not having more time to truly thank them throughout the day. The grounds are beautiful, the views are stunning, and the pictures from our wedding are ones that I will hold near and dear to my heart. Thank you for all of the work you put into making our wedding so wonderful for us. In the words of David Schitt covering Tina Turner, "You're Simply the Best!"”

“The Oasis at Wild Horse Ranch was the perfect venue for our Company Holiday party. The venue is beautiful and the team is fantastic, a big shout out to Devin, the bartender, best prickly pear margaritas eva! The late night food was fun and delicious, and DJ Obi was on fire. Thank you for hosting a perfect holiday party - we'll be back.”

“Rian was our waitress. She was perfect. Salmon with crab stuffing and vegetables, flat iron steak with mashed potatoes and vegetable blend was fresh and so delicious. Christmas tree is up and bar was crowded. Lots of seating available in either the bar or main dining room. Or sit outside next to the fire..6 tables of 4 outside for a private party this time of year would be lovely. They also have heaters. The view is gorgeous.”

“This review of the Emerald Event Center is long overdue… but here goes. I was so happy to find a facility close to home that would hold 100+ guests. This facility is VERY nice, clean and roomy. From the time I made the reservation with Chrystal to the end of our event, she was always available to answer my questions and was able to satisfy our needs for a successful party. I would definitely use this facility again!”

“Amazingly beautiful and the stars are so bright here. Awesome place to meditate, hike and remember what it must have been like 200 years ago when you could see the stars in the sky. Highly recommend if you are craving space. Literally and figuratively!It's a dream up there on Dove mountain.”

“We stayed 4 nights. The staff was delightful and helpful. The rooms are nice and functional. The kitchen was super helpful and we cooked our own meals. Easy parking, great location...Thank you for a nice vacation.”

“This is a relatively good bowling place. Their pizza is actually good, they serve drinks and it is an overall nice bowling place.This is a wonderful time for teenagers' birthday parties and such. It's fun for any age and has an arcade for little kids too.My only peeve about this, from my experience was that we got a owling lane that constantly had an issue. It took time out of our matches, so that was not so great.But otherwise, it's a good bowling alley.”

“GPS sent us to the wrong place. Address shows correctly but navigation directs you to turn north on La Canada, into the nearby apartments, which you cannot drive through, because it is a gated community. I wish Google Maps would have directed me to the ENTRANCE to the Cultural Center, which is on River Road, just EAST of the intersection.”

“Great fire works!! My family we watched from Camino de Oeste & Cortaro. You could hear the snap crackle pop, smell the sulfur, we just did not have to fight the traffic. Thanks Marana for a very nice event.”

“Nice place, great location, friendly employees. Get's a little noisy, both inside and outside (right by I-10. Lot's of trucks leaving early in the morning). I would stay there again.Rooms: Nice and dark for sleeping.”

“Excellent Organization! These folks are very community oriented and are very kind. From the staff to the TPD Sargents that attended the function we were invited to.”

“A local treasure. The food is delicious: comfort soups, bright salads, sandwiches over-stuffed (so you get leftovers!) They do generous cocktail pours. Lovely views of mountains and golf course. Inside views of art by local artists of the SAAG Arts Guild. Welcoming and community-minded. I wish they had dinner hours as they used to, because their dinners were delish. Oro Valley is blessed to have this feel-good gem!”

“This was the first time we've been to this location. My family ranks it #2 out of all the PPP they've been in ( not extensive research)It was clean, not busy and the food was ok.”

“Very private and peaceful with a great view. Ate at the Gallery restaurant had the members favorite chicken sandwich with bistro fries for lunch. Friendly and clean property.. windows clean as well good to see”

“There was a very horrible smell in the ladies room. It was not caused by a large crowd, as there were only five other people in the restaurant. There may be a major plumbing at this Peter Piper’s. Other than that…it was just fine.”

“I had stayed at this hotel so year ago. The quality is still there, the only things I found missing was the old Southwest charm. It is sleek and modern, which I find to be a direct contract for the facility and it's location.”

“Excellent place to stay at and the staff makes you feel like you are home.Rooms: Super clean.Nearby activities: Plenty to do in TucsonSafety: Good security systemWalkability: Plenty of shops in the same areaFood & drinks: Excellent breakfast and I will give two thumbs up ??.”
