Seis Kitchen is planning to open a brand-new location on the east side at La Plaza Shoppes, which is right behind Sakura at 6530 E. Tanque Verde Rd.
Owners Erika and Jake Muñoz plan to open the new spot by mid to late spring, bringing another dining option to the bustling area. In recent years, restaurants like Zio Peppe and Noodleholics have debuted to diners, while The Cork and UnCork’d Kitchen & Cocktails have refreshed existing concepts.
“We are beyond grateful to be expanding our local restaurant concept, and continuing to grow in the community that has supported us for the past 13 years,” said Erika. “It’s been an incredible journey, and we couldn’t have done it without our amazing team and loyal guests.”
Chances are you’ve seen the long line that forms at the Mercado San Agustin location or grabbed a bite at the other two locations on River Road and/or Oracle Road. The new location will have the same menu as the other three, which are known for their birria tacos and commitment to quality.
Also, Erika and Jake make it a point to use only local or regional beef, sustainably sourced fish and seafood, and naturally raised/antibiotic-free poultry to name just a few.
“We are so very excited for what ahead,” said Erika. “We can’t wait to bring our made-from-scratch cuisine, handmade cocktails, and fun atmosphere to the east side community. This expansion means the world to us.”
Stay tuned for updates, sneak peeks, and progress reports.
Seis Kitchen at La Plaza Shoppes will be located at 6530 E. Tanque Verde Rd. The other locations are found at 130 S. Avenida del Convento Ste. 100,1765 E. River Rd., and 9740 N. Oracle Rd. For more information, visit seiskitchen.com and follow Seis Kitchen on Instagram.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
