Carnitas La Yoca

TucsonSouth Side

Carnitas La Yoca features a spacious dining room with neutral walls, tiled floors, and a large mural of a Mexican lakeside scene. While it is a humble taco shop, if you arrive early Sunday morning, be prepared to wait in a long line of regulars dressed in their Sunday best. Pork is prince here, so order the classic carnitas with their fresh house-made corn tortillas. For a gelatinous combination of textures from different cuts, order the mixto.

@Talegacoffee at 177 N. Church Ave. transforms into @_Velvetcowboy after 4 pm, bringing cocktails, tapas, disco lights, and a lively bar atmosphere to the same space. The dual concept comes from the team behind Talega Coffee Co., with coffee and scratch-made breakfast and lunch served during the day, followed by happy hour and bar service at night. Velvet Cowboy’s grand opening is Oct. 16, with upcoming events including drag brunches, DJs, and live music.🪩 “Opening this place feels a little surreal. To now have a space where we can bring together coffee, food, art, booze, and all the weird things we love feels like a reflection of how far we’ve come.” —Tyler Melo Photos courtesy of @_velvetcowboy Read @jackie_tran_’s article on Tucsonfoodie.com #tucsonnews@Talegacoffee at 177 N.
