Before you join
Can I cancel?
Yes — from your profile on this site or in the app. Cancelling stops the next payment and your membership runs to the end of the period you've already paid for. On the monthly plan you can pause instead, for up to a year.
How do the perks actually work?
Each restaurant sets its own offer and how often it comes back. A handful are good on every visit, most return every one to three months, and some are twice a year. The restaurant's own terms are shown with the perk.
Do I need the app to redeem?
Yes. A perk is redeemed in the Tucson Foodie app at the restaurant, and that is the only place a redemption is recorded. Managing or cancelling your membership works on this site too.
Is it one perk per person or per household?
Per member account. One membership redeems a given perk once per that perk's own schedule, however many people are at the table. What the discount covers is the restaurant's decision, and it is written on the perk.
Can two of us share one membership?
Yes. Sign in to the same account on both phones and the perks are shared between you. It is one allocation rather than two — each perk comes back on its own schedule for the account, not once per person. Member dinners work differently: a ticket is for a member, and whether you can bring a guest is set dinner by dinner.
Can I give unused perks away as gifts?
Yes. You can send a perk you haven't used to a friend from the app, and they don't need to be a Foodie Club member to open it — just a free Tucson Foodie account on the email address you sent it to. Gifting spends your own use of that perk for the period, so you're giving the perk away rather than an extra copy of it. There's no limit on how many different perks you can give, but each one has to come back on its own schedule before you can redeem or gift it again.
What if I don't use them?
Nothing accumulates. Each perk comes back on its own schedule rather than stacking up, so an unused month is simply an unused month. If you know you will be away for a while, pausing a monthly membership is the better option.
Do member dinners cost extra?
Yes. Each dinner has its own price, set when it's announced. The price includes the tip, nothing is added at checkout, and it goes to the restaurant hosting the dinner. Tickets are released in the app, and whether you can bring a guest is set dinner by dinner.

In their words.

“Being in healthcare during the pandemic was a trying time, but the Foodie events have provided my wife and I with the first sense of normalcy. When I support Tucson Foodie, I am supporting locally owned business and members of my community.”
Casey H.
“Tucson Foodie is taking me to places I never knew existed. I'm telling everyone I know about it.”
Mary T.
“We moved here from Seattle two years ago and this is helping us make Tucson home! We've tried so many new restaurants, explored new neighborhoods, gotten to know new people.”
Jaime N.
“Before we go out to eat we always check to see places we've never been so we can use the vouchers. The savings are amazing!”
Brian M.
“It has helped us break out of our comfort zones with restaurants in Tucson. We love trying new places and different food with friends.”
Alicia K.
“Why over complicate it? I love being a Foodie member because I just really love good FOOD.”
Haley O.

IOU Sushi III has closed. The all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant on North Oracle Road announced the news on Facebook after about 10 years in Tucson. “This is the hardest post I’ve had to write,” the owners said. The post continued, “we have met some great friends who have become family to us.” Tucson Foodie first visited the restaurant in 2017, when it operated as IOU Sushi IV.

Anne Rysdale built @sheltercocktaillounge in 1961 with concrete walls, lava rock, and Cold War nerves. Today, owners Pam Santangelo and Kevin Breutzmann keep the Tucson bar exactly as regulars remember it. Inside, martinis share space with JFK memorabilia, a vintage atomic chandelier, and a suit of armor named Charlie. “Tucson is changing so much, but this has stayed the same. It’s a time capsule,” Santangelo said.

Scratch-made Japanese ramen goes far beyond instant noodles, with rich broths like tonkotsu, miso, and shoyu. Tucson has more specialty ramen shops than you might expect. Here’s where to find them around town.🍜
