Really good tasty food! Hush-poppies were crispy outside and warm inside. Shrimp and grits were delicious, lots of shrimp. The bread pudding dessert was just ok.

Colorful and cute interior design. It is located in a strip mall and parking can be an issue. They have indoor and outdoor seating. It is a busy place so timing is everything. Friendly, efficient service. Just a so-so wine selection and quite pricey. However, they do have a good beer selection with some on tap and some in bottles. The fried catfish and french fries are good but the fish is slightly too greasy. The portion of fries is huge and literally fills the whole plate. Very tasty hush puppies with a tasty dipping sauce. The gumbo is nice and smoky although a bit salty for me. Also, it could have used more chunks of meat and less rice. Not our usual type of restaurant with the higher sodium and carbs but can’t deny they know what they are doing.

Ate here with friends on a recommendation while weekending in the Tucson-Elgin-Bisbee area. Wow. Small wait for seating and a bit of a wait for food after we ordered but that's to be expected. This place is popular and packed. But they do it right. Our food was outstanding right down to the fries which were perfectly seasoned and crisp without being salty or greasy. We ordered our burgers "medium" and that's what we got. Our server was friendly and helpful. Nothing but a good experience here.

The only bad thing about The Parish is that there aren't more seats available! The food is excellent. I didn't expect much considering these are Cajun tasting note in the middle of the desert, but I was extremely happy with the result! The corn bread is probably the best I've ever eaten. The burger was among the best ever. The gumbo and jambalaya were as good as anything outside New Orleans. I really hope Tucson can appreciate how talented The Parish's cooking staff are.
