@Seiscantina has permanently closed its Joesler Village location at 1765 E. River Rd., the Muñoz family announced today. Three Seis Kitchen locations remain open at Tanque Verde Road, Oro Valley, and Mercado San Agustín. The family says guests can still find their favorite dishes and familiar faces at the remaining locations. “It is with heavy hearts that we share some bittersweet news. After much reflection, we have made the difficult decision to permanently close our Joesler Village newly rebranded Cantina Location. Saying goodbye to the regular guests who became faces we looked forward to seeing every week, we are truly sorry that we cannot continue serving you here.

On a hierarchical tier list of comfort food, mac and cheese ranks among the top. An ideal mac and cheese blends rich creaminess with a kiss of crunch. A velvety cheese sauce coats every noodle without being lumpy or gloppy. Chefs use blend of artisanal cheeses to create depth and sharpness. Roasted poblano, salty cured meat, and crunchy breadcrumbs add texture and complexity without overwhelming the dish. The right pasta shape, such as cavatappi or shells, helps the sauce adhere better than standard elbow macaroni and offers a more toothsome bite. In this list, we highlight some of the spots with stand-out mac and cheese in Tucson. Share your favorites with us in the comments.🧀 @beyondbreadbakerycafe @charrosteak.delrey @choicegreenstucson @eclecticcafetucsonjm @hubdowntown @janetandrays @redbird_scratchkitchen @saguarocornerstucson @barnyard_az @corktucson @jackrabbitloungetucson @tridentbargrill @trulandburgers Tucsonfoodie.com #tucsonfoodie

After a concert at Congress, a long shift, or a night out on Fourth Avenue, you might not want to stay up even later to cook. Thank you, late night kitchens. The options span more than just drive-thrus and dollar menus. From Sonoran hot dogs and solar-baked pizza to fresh gyros and craft cocktails with bar bites, Tucson’s late-night scene covers serious ground. Some spots stay open past 2 a.m., while others offer late-night happy hours that make the decision even easier. This guide rounds up places to eat late in Tucson after 10 p.m., whether you need a full meal or just something to hold you over. Hours can change after this article is updated, so check ahead before you head out. @bison_witches @brooklynpizzaco @bumsteds @elliottsoncongress @gentlebens @omars_hiway_chef @hubdowntown @karameloking @kontiki_tucson @miramontetucson @pocketspoolandpub @quesos_on_4th @red_garter_tucson @sisterstucson @surlywenchpub @jackrabbitloungetucson @tridentbargrill @uncorked_bar @uniontucson @urbanpitaaz @woodennickeltucson Tucsonfoodie.com
