Travel Tips for Tucson
Do they make tequila of Arizona Agave?
by matcrazy1
Hmm... I don't know. Thick leaves of Arizona Agave looked impressive but I didn't eat them :-).
TEQUILA is an alcoholic drink (officially 38%-55% of alcohol, usually 38%-40%) in the arid highlands of central Mexico, from fermented and distilled sap of the agave (also called a maguey), an indigenous plant (a succulent, not a cactus).
I am not sure whether tequila maybe made of Arizona agave. Do you know?

Cafe Poca Cosa
by bombshelter2 about Cafe Poca Cosa
True Mexico City style food. Not mexican food. With a menu that changes everyday, Suzanne always has an interesting menu of chicken, beef, fish, sometimes pork, and vegatarian dishes. The best part is the Poca Cosa Plate where they select three items from the menu. You can't go wrong. Margarita's are exquisite also. Any chicken Mole dish
Eat, Drink, and Meet People
by Basaic about O'Malley's Bar and Grill
O'Malley's is a bar and grill located on the corner of 4th Avenue and 8th Street. They serve all types of drinks including Jose Cuervo Margaritas on tap, and typical bar and grill food. I only had a drink so I cannot testify as to the quality of the food. The decor is sports and alcohol related. They have big screen TVs tuned to sports (and strangely enough Dr. Phil). They also have 4 nice pool tables. The staff was friendly and the girl behind the bar was cute. I paid $1.75 for a large glass of Sprite. Popular hangout for U of A students. I did not eat here; just drank and met new people.
