Zio Peppe is where tradition meets innovation, serious collides with playful, and gourmet converges with casual. Zio Peppe means “Uncle Joe’ in Italian, and just like a beloved “funcle” – a fun uncle, Zio Peppe will make sure all are welcome, and everybody is having a good time.

Zio Peppe is a collaboration between Chef Devon Sanner and Chef Mat Cable. Our menu is anchored in Italian-American classics of pizza and pasta, but draws heavy influence from the foods and flavor profiles of Tucson and the Sonoran region.

Sanner joins forces with Cable after having cooked under Tucson culinary legend Janos Wilder for the past 15 years, serving as chef at Janos, JBAR, Downtown + Cocktails, and The Carriage House.

Zio Peppe, which means “Uncle Joe” in Italian, is in part a tribute to Cable’s uncle, Joe Sottosanti, who opened Tucson’s first Sicilian pizza place, Tesseo’s Pizzeria, nearly 50 years ago.

Food and service were great. 2 items I didn’t like - split charge on a salad - credit card fee. Used to be a cost of doing business. Would’ve been a5 without those.

We made reservations for 730. When we got there, we told the hostess of the reservation. She acted surprised. 45 minutes later, we were finally seated. After waiting 10 minutes without being approached by a waiter, I asked if we had a waiter. 10 more minutes with went by without any contact, and we all got up and left. Staff seemed completely clueless and they weren’t ready for a party of six at 7:30 on New Year’s Eve.

A gem. The place was packed for dinner by the time we left. Recommend a reservation. The arancini were fantastic, and we got the bucatini arrabbiata, the margarita pizza and figgy stardust pizza. All were homemade and outstanding. Service was overall pretty good, as mentioned they were busy so it is understandable the server wasn’t able to check on us much. Definitely a great restaurant with great food.

Even though we were familiar with a co-owner and chef we had not tried Zio Peppe until last evening. Our first thought? "Why had we waited so long?" It is a small space tucked back off Tanque Verde Rd. near some other older restaurants and bars. Even though small, they have made efficient use of what they have to accomodate a good number of diners without feeling crowded. The menu is one of the more creative we have seen in town but thankfully not off the deep end on fusion of things of items that just should not be fused! Italian with a southwest flair along with Italian standards. We are former NYC residents who like to think of ourselves as "pizza snobs" and we were not disappointed in the Margherita pie we ordered (we added fennel sausage and mushrooms). First of all, the ingredients were top notch, including a slightly sweet tomato sauce, creamy mozzarella, real italian sausage, a good ratio to all, and most importantly to us, a crust that was light and crispy (good for folding, as any New Yorker knows, slices are supposed to be eaten). We cant wait to go back and try the pastas as well as the very interesting looking desserts. Great little "hidden gem" on Tucson's east side!

As a foodie, was looking forward to this Italian Mexican fusion. Great idea, but not executed well at all. Save your money and go elsewhere.
