Charro Steak will open a second location this August in the Casas Adobes Plaza at at 7109 N. Oracle Rd. The new spot will feature the same mesquite-grilled steaks, sustainable seafood, and Sonoran-inspired menu that have defined the downtown restaurant since 2016.

Executive Chef Gary Hickey, who has led the original downtown kitchen, will also oversee the new location.

“I am so excited to bring the amazing food we have been downtown to the north side of Tucson and surrounding communities like Oro Valley and Marana,” Hickey said.

Charro Steak North will host job fairs from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. on July 8, 9, 11, and 12. The team is hiring for all positions, including front of house and kitchen roles.

In celebration of the summer and the restaurant’s expansion, Si Charro! is also hosting its popular annual “Xmas in July” promotion. Through July 22, customers can pre-order a $100 gift card online at Si Charro’s official site and receive an additional $100 card for free.

The deal will also be available in person on July 24 and 25 at participating locations, including Charro Steak & Del Rey. Beginning July 26, the Xmas in July cards are valid at most Si Charro! locations, including Charro Chico and Pub 1922, though some restrictions apply.

“Xmas in July is our way to thank our local customers for their year ‘round support and what better way to do it than during the hot summer as a reward for braving the summer heat,” Flores said.

The grand opening is TODAY, Oct. 8! 🎉

@istanbultucson is expanding with a second location, @istanbulmediterraneanexpress, at 5660 W. Cortaro Farms Rd. 

The fast-casual spot will feature about 75% of the original location’s menu, plus two exclusive dishes: build-your-own Turkish stuffed baked potatoes, known as Kumpir, and fresh-ground doner made in-house. The falafel plate and stuffed potatoes can also be made vegan. 

“The first restaurant taught us what our customers love most, so at Cortaro we’re focusing the menu around our most popular dishes while making the experience a little more casual and convenient. Most importantly, we’ve learned that no matter how much we grow, the quality of our food has to stay high every single day.” — Kamran Esar
