Four generations ago, the Wisdom family opened up Wisdom’s Cafe in 1944. It’s the perfect stop for tourists traveling through the Tumacacori and Santa Rita mountains in Arizona. Serving up delicious Mexican food and live music every Friday and Saturday, it’s no wonder that the café has become a favorite to locals and visitors alike.
Wisdom’s Café brings a unique charm to Tumacacori with its rustic feel and friendly atmosphere.
Outside of the building, people like to stop and pose for photos with the famous giant chicken statue in the parking lot.
Once you walk inside, you’re surrounded by rich culture and history, including Native American pottery and cowboy memorabilia.
Photos of family and friends accent the walls. Various antiques and family heirlooms are also found around the café.
Wisdom’s Café is also known for having some of the best margaritas around.
Served with a rim of salt and a fresh lime, these margaritas are the perfect refreshing drink to sip on while you wait for your food to arrive.
Want to warm up with some soup? Yes, Arizona can get chilly during the winter months! Soup makes the perfect appetizer before you dive into a plate of tacos or enchiladas.

Don’t forget about dessert. There’s a treat to please everyone on the menu.
