@Sonoranrestaurantweek runs from September 4 through 13, 2026, and itā€™s the perfect excuse to pair a day of Tucson sightseeing with a prix fixe meal. Since the Old Pueblo packs desert trails, historic missions, art districts, and a UNESCO City of Gastronomy designation into one metro area, visitors can easily build a full day around any interest and land near a Restaurant Week stop when itā€™s time to eat. Swipe to see six itineraries built around Tucsonā€™s core attractions, each paired with nearby restaurants participating in this yearā€™s event. Menus and prices are subject to change, so itā€™s worth confirming details on the Sonoran Restaurant Week website before heading out.@Sonoranrestaurantweek runs from September 4 through 13, 2026, and itā€™s the perfect excuse to pair a day of Tucson sightseeing with a prix fixe meal.
