Restaurants offering military discounts to honor those who serve

May 27, 20193 min read

On Memorial Day, the last Monday of every May, we honor and remember those who died while serving in the United States Armed Services.

Some businesses and restaurants extend their gratitude to veterans and actively serving military members by offering discounts. We’ve compiled a list of restaurants who offer their discounts year round.

We have only included the restaurants who have communicated with us regarding their discounts; if you know a restaurant or you are a restaurant who offers military discounts, please tell us the amount and we’ll add you to this list.

@Sonoranrestaurantweek runs from September 4 through 13, 2026, and it’s the perfect excuse to pair a day of Tucson sightseeing with a prix fixe meal. Since the Old Pueblo packs desert trails, historic missions, art districts, and a UNESCO City of Gastronomy designation into one metro area, visitors can easily build a full day around any interest and land near a Restaurant Week stop when it’s time to eat.

Swipe to see six itineraries built around Tucson’s core attractions, each paired with nearby restaurants participating in this year’s event. Menus and prices are subject to change, so it’s worth confirming details on the Sonoran Restaurant Week website before heading out.@Sonoranrestaurantweek runs from September 4 through 13, 2026, and it’s the perfect excuse to pair a day of Tucson sightseeing with a prix fixe meal.
