Aqui Con El Nene has been a beloved Tucson Sonoran dog mecca for years, but you'll find more than just hot dogs. The restaurant, which began its life as a food truck, has grown and expanded to a brick-and-mortar location on the south side that offers late-night service on the weekends. Come for a great menu of tacos, including mesquite-grilled carne asada. You'll also find specialties like papanchas, oversize, grilled stuffed potatoes. True, this is not fine dining, but you don't have to dine amid white tablecloths to savor the irresistible, well-crafted and addictive tacos, Sonoran dogs and other eats at this well-established Tucson destination.
