Seriously! You have to come here! The Fish and Chips are crispy and not at all greasy. This is the kind of seafood eatery you tell your friends about. Hidden gem. Clam Chowder anyone?

I love their fried oysters. That's all I've ever ordered there. But that's because they're so good!

This is a hidden jem... Food is AMAZING! Especially liked the ceviche and the chicken parm. The food is priced way under value. The staff is working so hard. They are rock stars. The place is older and in a weird location. BUT, absolutely worth the visit. Very small, call for a reservation.

Fettuccine Alfredo was not that good and my shrimp were so hard. The garlic bread was decent. I would not go back or recommend.

Restaurants these days have lowered their standard of quality ingredients and portion sizes, but not Baby Beluga! Excellent food and service. This restaurant is truly a diamond in the desert. Seafood and meats taste fresh, Portions are huge, vegetables and ingredients are chunky, sauce is thick and delicious. Definitely one of the best seafood restaurants we have here in Tucson! I recommend for everyone to try this place out!

I truly enjoyed the Garlic prawns I got and they gave me a huge portion that I tried to or better yet should've saved for the next day. They have me a good amount of prawns and it was a pleasant surprise on how good their sauce was. I thought it crazy to find this place way out in Tucson Estates area on Kinney but it was a good find. The staff were very friendly and I appreciated their recommendations. I highly recommend what I got and I'm sure the rest of the food options are just as good.

Great seafood and friendly service in this small restaurant near Tucson mountain park. You have to try the clam chowder! Really enjoyed our dinner and had so much food for a really reasonable price.

Found this truly amazing little spot while we were renting a VRBO one mile away! OMgosh! I am a seafood lover and this is the best I've had since in the Pacific Northwest! Do not miss out on this GEM!! Fantastic owners/servers/chef!!! Small, not fancy, but the best you'll find here!!

Outstanding little restaurant near Tucson Estates. Ample portion of very fresh fish and chips. Prices very reasonable. Friendly, attentive service. Great sitting outdoors on the patio in the rear of the restaurant. Relaxing and enjoyable. We will definitely be back when in the area.

Was back again last night. Been great every time I have been. If you haven't tried these folks, you really are missing out. I had the garlic shrimp last night and I had enough for lunch and even a little more later today. I think it is absolutely amazing. I had a hard time choosing last night. Next will be chicken PARM. I honestly hope when we can ALL hang out again, they put their heads together with Kim's place and the Mexican place across the brick path there and create one huge block party! I would so come hang out to nibble choices from each place. C'mon you know it would be a blast. I am well and truly proud of the quality of our choices on the Hill. I hope the city peeps don't figure it out.
Just had the most delicious chicken Parm from baby Beluga . It's a small mom and pop type place. She made my salad in front of me and the chicken in the chicken Parm was humongous, definitely a two meal dinner. My husband's fish and chips the fish was very crispy the fries well he got chips had a really good flavor but once the lid got closed they got kind of soggy, they would be good crisped up in the air fryer. So happy to have a new restaurant out this way. There's not much out here!! We will definitely be back

The food was delicious! This was our 4th attempt to order from here and today they finally answered the phone. It seems the hours are just whenever they feel like being there. We ordered based on the menu they have posted online. Two "whale" fish and chips for $13 each and a "minnow" for $10. when I went to pick it up the total was $47! They raised their prices $3 per meal(it's fine, they can do that. It was just not expected)While it was very tasty, we probably won't be returning. $50 for 3 fish and chips meals is a little excessive for Tucson. If you plan to eat carry out here be sure to order earlier that you want it. Placed my order at 4:30 and it was not available for pickup till 5:30. I thought that a little strange since it was pretty slow (not a soul in sight) I wish them luck, it's hard to keep a restaurant open up here.

What a great addition to Tucson Estates! We've had their take-out fish & chips, shrimp & fries, clam chowder; and dine-in Alfredo with shrimp and with scallops. ALL was outstanding! And now with all restaurants closed they are still open for take-out PLUS helping our community. What wonderful people AND food. Please continue to support our local businesses, these people really deserve your support and you deserve some great food and a smile.

First, there are very few options in this area so I give the proprietors big credit for starting this venture. They serve .... hands down .... THE BEST OYSTER STEW I have ever tasted! Milk, butter, and huge oysters flavored with smokey bacon, salt and pepper. A very generous portion with enough to take home. We also tried a meal of fried oysters and shrimp served with freshly made chips. The seafood is fresh and cooked to perfection. All the fish options (not pasta) are served with a side of freshly cut and made potato chips that are really yummy, not greasy and great flavor. There are pasta options with seafood in either a red sauce or a white Alfredo sauce. Also, a marinara option for those who don't eat seafood or fish. Seems like the fish and chips are a big favorite as they were flying out as fast as they could prepare them. Service is promot and courteous. Ambiance is truly the desert so be kind. We are about good food! If you want upscale, make another choice. You want tasty seafood or fish at a fair price... this is the place. Truly a gem in the western flats of Tucson. Thank you Baby Beluga, we appreciate your presence here in the Tucson Estates area.
