5. La Fuente

NORTH TUCSON.   Although it's considered by many locals to be a bit of a tourist trap, La Fuente does have fabulous mole sauce, the deeply layered chocolate-based sauce that originated in central Mexico. And the décor is about as appealing as it comes – colorful and bright with fairy lights and metal lamps, complemented by a lively mariachi band every night starting at 6pm. The restaurant has been in business for more than 40 years, and has hosted well-known folks such as Barbra Streisand, Frank Sinatra and Johnny Cash, so it must be doing something right!   (© 10Best)

A longtime tourist favorite; try the carne seca chimichanga. (from Southern Living)
