okay, let me start by saying that claim jumper is one of my top favorite restaurants, providing hearty ""man food"" and delicious salads for the most finicky of females. HOWEVER, the tucson location is simply not up to par. the california establishments are FAR better, the service smoother, and the food tastier. it's disappointing, although it probably won't stop my patronage. and, for the folks who complain about the atmosphere - go to North for quiet dining! claim jumpers was never meant to be a great date place but a family-style restaurant meant to please pop to tot. where else can you order a piece of cake for 7 bucks that feeds 6-8?
Pros: huge portions, comfortable seating, low key vibe
Cons: lackluster eats, noise, long wait
