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.

This restaurant was recommended by our daughter who lives in Tucson. We have foodie friends visiting and we wanted a special place for her birthday. Tito and Pep far exceeded our expectations. Every dish was so tasteful, different and delightful. I particularly like the cold eggplant appetizer. Our daughter said we had to save room for the buttermilk panna cotta and it was good advice. All 4 of us left raving about the food. We also appreciate that the staff worked on Jan 1 st which is our friend's birthday.
