Your Guide to Sonoran Restaurant Week 2023
Sonoran Restaurant Week 2023 is a wrap! Thank you to all the restaurants that participated, all the foodies that dined locally over the past 10 days, and to our sponsors Visit Tucson, Rio Nuevo, The Tucson Metro Chamber, Commerce Bank of AZ, The Downtown Clifton, Tucson Weekly, and The Tucson City of Gastronomy.
In a few weeks, we will share the final impact report right here. Until next year, stay hungry my friends!
Now in its fifth year, Sonoran Restaurant Week is back September 8-17, providing both locals and visitors a unique opportunity to explore and fall in love (again?) with Tucson's incredible restaurant scene. Use this page as your guide to Restaurant Week. Scroll down or click "Map View" (on mobile) to see the list of participating restaurants and their menus. If you're like us and you intend to create a plan of action for Sonoran Restaurant Week, scheduling out all your breakfasts, lunches, and dinners for the entire 10 days — be sure to add some flexibility — stay tuned as this page is updated daily as new restaurants join and send us their menus. As you'll see, most restaurants offer a prix fixe menu at either a $25, $35, or $45 price point. Though, some restaurants went above and beyond, creating super special menus for you to enjoy at multiple price points. We loved their ideas so much, we allowed for this flexibility. Cause when a horse wants to run, there ain't no sense in closing the gate, right? Have fun out there!Note: Sonoran Restaurant Week is produced by Tucson Foodie and supported by Visit Tucson, Rio Nuevo, The Tucson Metro Chamber, Commerce Bank of AZ, The Downtown Clifton, Tucson Weekly, and The Tucson City of Gastronomy.
