Trident Grill III is Permanently Closing its Doors on Craycroft Road

Sep 5, 20231 min read

As of Friday, September 8, Trident Grill III will be permanently closing its doors at 250 S. Craycroft Rd. No specific reason was given for the closure and the last day to eat, order a beer, and chat with the restaurant’s staff is Thursday, September 7.

The sports bar first opened its doors in 2017, which was a former Tilted Kilt, next to Tucson Coffee Roasters and Miss Saigon. During Trident Grill III’s final day on Thursday, they’ll be open from 11 a.m. – 11 p.m.

We do have some good news, though.

Trident Grill II on Swan Road is hosting a grand reopening on Friday, September 8. The midtown location has been temporarily closed for restaurant renovations.

After Thursday, there will still be three other Trident Grill locations and a Trident Pizza Pub. Stay tuned because this may not be the end of Trident Grill III — perhaps the owners have another location in their sights.

Trident Grill is located at 2033 E. Speedway Blvd., 2910 N. Swan Rd., and 2912 W. Ina Rd. Trident Pizza Pub can be found at 446 N. Campbell Ave. For more information, visit tridentgrill.com.

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.
