Vegan Tucson Restaurant Week is Here! (December 1 – 7)

Dec 1, 20241 min read

The time has come! The first-ever Vegan Tucson Restaurant Week has arrived, happening from Sunday, December 1 to Saturday, December 7.

In partnership with Hannah Hernandez of Death Free Foodie, Vegan Tucson Restaurant Week highlights the creativity and flavor of plant-based cuisine across Tucson!

During Vegan Tucson Restaurant Week, participating restaurants will feature special vegan menus or spotlight their most popular plant-based dishes. It’s an invitation to step outside your comfort zone (or lean into your love for vegan food) and discover something new.

Below is the guide to all participating restaurants — start planning your plant-based journey!

Your Guide to Vegan Tucson Restaurant Week

Over the years, Tucson Foodie has had the privilege of building events that celebrate our community’s love for food — like the Vegan Night Market, which draws 3,000–5,000 people quarterly, and Sonoran Restaurant Week, which generates a $3 million economic impact and brings tens of thousands of diners to explore locally owned restaurants.

“Let’s make this event a success,” said Shane Reiser, Head Foodie at Tucson Foodie. “Mark your calendars for Sunday, December 1 – Saturday, December 7, explore the incredible menus from participating restaurants, and share your experiences with us.”

The grand opening is TODAY, Oct. 8! 🎉

@istanbultucson is expanding with a second location, @istanbulmediterraneanexpress, at 5660 W. Cortaro Farms Rd. 

The fast-casual spot will feature about 75% of the original location’s menu, plus two exclusive dishes: build-your-own Turkish stuffed baked potatoes, known as Kumpir, and fresh-ground doner made in-house. The falafel plate and stuffed potatoes can also be made vegan. 

“The first restaurant taught us what our customers love most, so at Cortaro we’re focusing the menu around our most popular dishes while making the experience a little more casual and convenient. Most importantly, we’ve learned that no matter how much we grow, the quality of our food has to stay high every single day.” — Kamran Esar

Daily hours: 11am - 9pm
