Campbell Avenue continues to grow with flavors from all over the globe.
Next up: Casa Asada Taquería at 2502 N. Campbell Ave., which is the spot that formerly housed Goodness. With a focus on traditions out of Mexico, the team behind the build debuted the new concept this past weekend.
“It’s like a traditional taqueria out of Hermosillo,” said Daniel Thomas of Blueprint Restaurant Concepts. “We’re not going to be doing lengua or anything like that — we’re keeping it very simplistic. We’re using prime beef for our carne asada tacos and the al pastor is straight off the trompo.”
Casa Asada has more than one bar, too. One is designated for their housemade salsas and another is there to lift your spirits.
“We have a full bar,” Thomas added. “Beer, cocktails, and wine. The cocktails will be influenced by the content so there’s going to be a lot of mezcal!”Therefore, be sure to add this place to your list of “where to find margaritas in Tucson” and other tequila and mezcal-driven concoctions.
The restaurant also has table service as opposed to walking up to the counter to order.
“It’ll be a relaxed service,” said Thomas. “If you go to any taco shop, taqueria, restaurant, or anything in Hermosillo, the hospitality is incredible. They’re so attentive! We’re really going to try to drive home principles from those taco shops and smaller restaurants.”
The new restaurant is open daily from 11 a.m. – 10 p.m.
Casa Asada Taquería is located at 2502 N. Campbell Ave. For more information, visit asadataqueria.com and follow Casa Asada Taquería on Instagram.
