The Parish at 6453 N Oracle Rd. is a foodie destination in Tucson’s dining scene — Chef Travis Peters and the team are pros at combining the charm of Southern comfort bites with Southwest flavors.
They’ve been around for more than a decade now, too! You’re in for a treat if you’ve never eaten at The Parish, or even if it’s been a while since you’ve stopped by. Jambalaya, shrimp and grits, Southern fried chicken, hushpuppies, po’boy sandwiches, and more.
Also, once a year, the team hosts a big Mardi Gras bash — roasting an entire alligator over an open fire paired with a crawfish boil, Cajun sampler plates, and King Cake.

However, during the summer, The Parish offers deals and special menus.
There’s a “screamin’ takeout deal” you need to get in on pronto. They’re calling it a “three-part harmony” and it’s $15 each, available to go from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. on Tuesday – Friday throughout the scorching summer months.
$15 Summer Lunch Special
- Your choice of any half Po’Boy on their menu
- Salad or chips as a side
- Substitute your side for hushpuppies ($1 extra) or gumbo or red beans ($2 extra)
- Tea or Soda
Again, that deal is available for takeout only from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. on Tuesday – Friday. The deal is happening now until the foreseeable future — until the end of the summer season. In other words, order a to-go meal soon before the deal ends.
Also, happening this summer: new summer cocktails.
Each of the restaurant’s new cocktails is “expertly crafted to provide the perfect balance of flavors, ensuring a delightful escape from the scorching sun.” In other words, get ’em while they’re available!
