About

Empanadas El Dominicano is much more than just empanadas. Since 2021, it’s been a little corner of Caribbean flavor and joy right here in Tucson. Every dish reflects the pride and tradition of the Dominican Republic. Founded by Wander Pérez, a former professional baseball player, this food truck was born out of a desire to share a piece of the DR with our Southern Arizona community. We’re excited to be part of this joyful community full of cultures and flavors. We promise to serve you fast, with a smile, and with the sazón that makes us unique.

Sauce Pizza & Wine Pizza restaurant
We believe in one simple thing; delicious food at a reasonable price. Providing a high-quality product that is made fresh daily and affordable for people of all ages is important to us. We don't think being a fast casual brand means you have to lower your standards for quality and fresh ingredients. Whether it's one of our salads made with farm-fresh ingredients, a panini served on bread from a local bakery, our pasta, or one of our signature gourmet pizzas, the utmost care is put into crafting the perfect made-from-scratch meal that anyone in the neighborhood can enjoy. Also, we've carefully selected a variety of red and white wines along with several local beers to complement our menu items. Join us in Tucson for lunch or dinner.

Copal Contemporary Mexican Cuisine Mexican restaurant
Welcome to "Copal," a contemporary Mexican restaurant inspired by copal resin and the Day of the Dead, which offers you a unique and vibrant experience. Copal is an aromatic resin used in Mexican tradition to create a sacred and mystical atmosphere. Its intoxicating fragrance and its connection with the Day of the Dead make copal a perfect choice to represent the essence of this restaurant. Behind Copal is the Bohon family, who in 1986 opened their first Mexican restaurant in Tucson, Arizona. With years of service, they gained the experience and knowledge that made them an institution in the local gastronomic scene. The Bohons are a dedicated and passionate restaurant family, always striving for excellence, authenticity, and innovation.
