Owners Jordan and Emma Fuller, who also operate Guadalajara Original Grill, designed the 7,000-square-foot northwest Tucson space around an old-world hacienda aesthetic, with murals by local artist Ignacio Garcia, custom woodwork by The Lost Barrio Gallery, hand-plastered walls, and imported cantera stone from Jalisco.

Reservations are available through OpenTable or at reservations@casaveratucson.com. Casa Vera is at 7265 N. La Cholla Blvd. For background on the restaurant, see the Tucson Foodie photo tour of Casa Vera.

@Pueblovida is closing its original downtown taproom this fall, 12 years after opening, and moving next door to a larger space at 121 E. Broadway Blvd. The new taproom will seat 100+ guests and feature 14 taps, a curated wine program and, for the first time, a restaurant. Chef Scott Girod of @Anello_pizzeria will open a new restaurant in the shared space, expected to follow the taproom’s late fall 2026 opening in early 2027. “This taproom has always been more than four walls. It’s where we’ve celebrated milestones, introduced hundreds of new beers, watched friendships grow and built a community we’re incredibly grateful for. While we’re excited about what’s next, it’s impossible not to feel sentimental about saying goodbye to the place where it all happened.” — @Pueblovida Co-founder Linette Antillon Read the article on Tucsonfoodie.com@Pueblovida is closing its original downtown taproom this fall, 12 years after opening, and moving next door to a larger space at 121 E.

After 13 years, Agustín Kitchen has permanently closed its doors at Mercado San Agustín. The space already has its next chapter lined up. Il Santo, an Italian concept from hospitality veteran Vito Prencipe and fifth-generation Tucsonan Bonnie Callahan, will take over the space. “I leave this chapter with mixed emotions as I say goodbye to our friends, patrons and colleagues at Agustín Kitchen. It’s with gratitude and admiration that I thank our managers, chefs, staff, and purveyors both old and new for their years of collaboration. Agustin Kitchen has meant so much to so many over this time and has been a beloved anchor in the Mercado District community.” — Owner Adam Weinstein Read the article on Tucsonfoodie.comAfter 13 years, Agustín Kitchen has permanently closed its doors at Mercado San Agustín.
