Nov 15, 20212 min read

There’s a spot on Fourth Avenue that’s promoting creativeness throughout the community with instructional classes, self-guided painting workshops, entertainment like stand-up comedy, and more. Now, they’ve taken a dive into the local culinary scene.

Arte Bella On 4th Ave, which has been serving its new menu for a couple of months, hosted its official Grand Opening over the weekend at 340 N. Fourth Ave.

Arte Bella has branded itself as “Tucson’s original puff and paint” joint, hosting several events that are 420-friendly down the hall and near the back of the building. The location has gone through several changes over the years, including a restaurant that sold poutine fries, another that was a Jewish deli-inspired eating spot, a music venue, and more.

The new Arte Bella restaurant is open 5 – 10 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday, 5 p.m. – midnight on Thursday, 3 p.m. – 2 a.m. on Friday, 11 a.m. – 2 a.m. on Saturday, and 10 a.m. – 10 p.m. on Sunday. They’ve got a regular menu, a Taco Tuesday selection, and even a brunch menu on Sunday.

The Taco Tuesday menu offers a variety of Crispy Tacos ($2.50 each), with a choice of birria, carnitas or chicken, Vegan Tacos ($3 each) filled with the likes of jackfruit and coconut cheese, and then Quesotacos ($4 each).

On Sundays, their brunch menu’s got Huevos Rancheros, Eggs Benedict, Birria Hash, and Vegan Pancakes — made with brown sugar and almond milk before topped with vegan whipped cream, blueberries, and strawberries. There’s also plenty to choose from a la carte if you’re looking to create your own all-star breakfast, and for drinks they’ve got beer, wine, cocktails, seltzers, and CBD seltzers.

On the regular menu, you’ll find some treats like the Whole or Half Roasted Chicken, Birria Ramen, and King Pad Thai. End the night with some Churro Ice Cream or Peanut Butter and Chocolate Bites, while you’re at it, too.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
