9 Places to Eat in Tucson, Arizona

Tuscon is an amazing city for food. All throughout the city you will find restaurants, coffee shops and street vendors that make some of the best food you will ever have. I spent a week exploring the city and eating at many different places. While this is by no means a full list, this should help you to begin your Tucson culinary journey. Let me know what your favorite spot is in the comments.

I'll be honest, as a native Tucsonan, I often take the diverse access to cuisine for granted. Sure every city has its problems, but there's beauty here too. Though I'm sure videos like these aren't targeted at people who already live there, I appreciate your content all the same

I can’t believe you mentioned Seis but didn’t talk about their neighbor La Estrella! Best Mexican bakery I’ve ever tried. Amy’s Donuts is more of a gimmick with those weird toppings. La Estrella has real donuts and other pastries that deserve a shoutout

Oh man... Born and raised in Tucson and the food is what I miss most. Great video and the only other thing I'd add would be the Mexican restaurants on 4th Ave in South Tucson... It's like a mile of no wrong choices.

(You got Tucson instead of Tuscon this time! Yay!)

You left off El Ne Ne. GREAT food Cable guy recommended it and we're glad he did!

I live in Tucson & I can confidently say that BOCA is my absolute favorite restaurant! Everything on the menu is delicious but i have to say the best thing they offer is the chips & salsa starter dish (i know it sounds crazy but trust me!). It comes with five different unique salsas that are switched daily & made in house as well as fresh chips to dip. I highly highly recommend giving this place a try!

I didn’t see anyone talking abt Willow. Such a cute atmosphere and yummy breakfast

Our kids went to college there. We were there a few weeks ago. My favorite place is Beyond Bread. My husband likes Lindys. Frankies and Lolos were favorites back then. Guadalajara Grill is great for large groups. We had 27 in our party once and no problem for them. Great college town.

I'm from Phoenix and get to visit Tucson often. It seems strange to me, but along with the outstanding Mexican food spots, we find great Chinese food there too. Not sure why, but the Chinese food I get in the valley doesn't even come close.

I heard Eegees was going national. They're food hasn't been as good the last like..10 years and they're sandwiches are half the size of what they used to be. If you go national at least make it like it was. Hogie House used to be amazing too but now is the same way. All bread and lettuce, no meat..

I've been to Tucson several times in my life and another place I remember from back in the 1990's is Pinnacle Peaks . That place was awesome too but I know that there are many others . I think they've been gone for quite a while now . I'd love to visit the city again with my wife . Go to Sabino canyon and Saguaro monument . Beautiful place .

missing out on La Estrella bakery! next door to Seis, amazing Mexican confections and vegan donuts as well! Cochinitos from La Estrella always make my day and I was waiting for you to mention them the entire video

[markperlman]

one place that is always left off these lists from Tucson is Canyons Crown great English style pub food like the delicious scotch eggs, Guinness pie, pasties, and the best fish and chips in town and a bruised pear to wash it down followed with a sticky toffee pudding for desert. I live clear across town and make the 45 min trip regularly.

Great video! I have tried most of it and this should have a part 2.

Barista Del Barrio is hands down the best place I’ve eaten at. Not just in Tucson.

[ndyRae]

FYI Don Guerra of Barrio Bread won a James Beard Award for outstanding baker a few weeks ago!

One of the best youtube channel ever! Your travel videos are a sunday staple for me. Your Route 66 road trip was the best! I didn't realized I have not subscribed yet but I have been watching your content since.

I haven't been to Tucson in like 15 years, man has it grown up now !!

[jessedesens]

Neat. One that I'd like to see is a video on some of the cafes around town. Baja Cafe has got to be my favorite. Another good one is Le Buzz with their amazing scones, pastries, & cookies and even locally roasted coffee.
Yeah.... Tucson Cafes are another level.

A few more recommendations from a local: Sher-e-Punjab (Indian), sa-ing (Thai), kogi (Korean), Zemam's (Ethiopian) and North Italia (okay, that last one isn't only a Tucson thing but it's really good). All of them are absolutely phenomenal!
