Broadway Proper, an amazing 55+ community in Tucson, Arizona, has a 5-star in-house restaurant, but if you’re looking to try somewhere new or special, Tucson has a lot to offer! Here are a few of the best restaurants for seniors and their families in Tucson, Arizona near Broadway Proper!
Baja Cafe
You’ll find Baja Cafe, home of the snickerdoodle pancake, less than a mile from Broadway Proper. Open 6am to 2pm daily, it’s a great choice for breakfast or brunch with friends or families. The atmosphere is pleasant and not too loud, great for smaller groups. They also have a great kid’s menu for any visiting little ones in your life.
La Frida Mexican Grill
La Frida Mexican Grill & Seafood is just 5 minutes from Broadway Proper, and it’s also one of the best Mexican restaurants in Tucson! It’s wheelchair accessible, and has great service, with a calm, professional atmosphere. Diners rave about the mole enchiladas and (perhaps surprisingly) their ice cream cake.
Wildflower
For an incredible atmosphere and delicious food, don’t miss Wildflower. Also just 5 minutes from Broadway Proper, this restaurant has beautiful mountain views and legendary short rib ravioli. They also have both indoor and outdoor seating, both of which are wheelchair accessible.
The Cork Tucson
The Cork Tucson is known for their unique Southwestern food and steaks. They have traditional steakhouse options like surf n’ turf and prime rib, but also some more adventurous options like bison filet and roasted bone marrow. It’s definitely a more unique choice if you’re looking for something different.
Falora
Everyone needs a favorite pizza joint, and Falora might be your new favorite. It’s worth the slightly longer drive for their wood-fired pizzas and homemade bread, and even some great vegan options. Try the margherita pizza or the hazelnut gnocchi!
JoJo’s
JoJo’s restaurant is also a little further away, but it’s also one of the most beautiful outdoor dining experiences in Tucson. They have live music and a pond, making it a sweet little oasis in this desert city. Locals love the brunch, or try the birria dip sandwich for lunch. They also serve dinner a few days a week–check the website for their listed hours before you go.
