TASTE THE 23- RESTAURANT WEEKJune 16, 2019 - June 22, 2019This week-long celebration of Visit Tucson's "The Best 23 Miles of Mexican Food in America" campaign provides every reason to go out and try some of the best Mexican Food that Tucson has to offer. Participating restaurants want to show off their signature items and are offering specials directly in their establishment.
What is The Best 23 Miles of Mexican Food? It’s an adventure of incredible food and a wide array of dining options, from fine to funky. We’ll go ahead and say it: you won’t find better Mexican food anywhere north of the border. And we stand by this bold claim. If you love Mexican food and you haven’t eaten in Tucson, you haven’t tasted the whole story. Taste the 23 Restaurant Week is the perfect opportunity to try what it is all about. When you arrive, just ask for the Taste the 23 Special. Why?Tucson is home to the most authentic Mexican food north of the border. The highest concentration of these restaurants is found within a 23-mile area that includes the City of South Tucson, downtown and lower midtown. At these terrific eateries, many of which are family-owned and decades old, the settings are casual, the ingredients are fresh and the experience is unforgettable.
