Mojo Cuban Kitchen and Rum Bar

Mojo Cuban Kitchen and Rum Bar brings authentic Cuban flavors to Tucson, Arizona, located at 1929 E Grant Rd in the heart of the city. The restaurant's name 'Mojo' refers to the traditional Caribbean garlic sauce—a citrus and garlic marinade that forms the foundation of classic Cuban cuisine. The menu showcases beloved Cuban comfort foods including tender ropa vieja (shredded beef in tomato sauce), crispy empanadas, golden fried yuca, flavorful mojo chicken, and the quintessential Cubano sandwich pressed to perfection. At the full-service indoor/outdoor bar, guests can explore an impressive selection of rums curated for both sipping and cocktail creation. The cocktail program features classic Cuban drinks like refreshing Mojitos, Cuba Librees, creamy Pina Coladas, and Daquiris—prepared exactly as Ernest Hemingway preferred them. A convenient walk-up window offers quick service for online orders, Cuban coffee (cafecito), and sweet pastelitos, reminiscent of the 'las ventanitas' windows found in Miami's Little Havana. The ambiance features a regionally inspired soundtrack that enhances the dining experience. Open daily until 10pm, Mojo Cuban Kitchen has earned 909 reviews with a 4-star rating, making it a must-visit destination for Cuban cuisine lovers in Tucson and throughout Arizona.
