Walk one block up to Grant Road and turn right. Good Mexican food, breakfast and lunch. They close around 4 in the afternoon. I love their posole. They also have good menudo, and albondigas and other soups in addition to the enchiladas, chimichangas, tacos. No alcohol, but good food!

One of our favorites. They shutdown during the pandemic, changed names from La Cocina to LaCo with a new organization (but still local).
Hopefully they're staying much the same, but having just learned they've reopened, we haven't been able to visit it yet. My thumbs are crossed.
Outdoor dining with a music on some nights, check their website, but the ambiance is always relaxed, and enjoyable for anytime they are open. The restaurant is also surrounded with several stores.

A must see if you're new to Tucson and the desert. Especially during the summer, but true most or all of the year, visit early in the day before animals start to hide from the heat.
