National television show set to film at Boca Tacos y Tequila Thursday

Boca Tacos & Tequila, 533 N. Fourth Ave.

We love Tucson food. Visitors love Tucson food.

And it seems the Travel Channel also loves Tucson food.

The Travel Channel has been in Tucson the past week filming segments for at least one upcoming show.

The newest restaurant to announce filming is BOCA Tacos y Tequila, 533 N. Fourth Avenue — which is fitting considering today is National Taco Day. BOCA said filming will be from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 4.

A spokeswoman with Travel Channel said the air dates and other details about the show are secret, but we know of at least three Tucson eateries will be featured on the channel. 

On Monday, the channel filmed at burger spot Lindy's on Fourth, 500 N. Fourth Avenue.

On Wednesday, it was Pinnacle Peak's turn. Folks who dined at the historic steakhouse at 6541 E. Tanque Verde Rd. had the chance be featured on the show. 

But this certainly isn't the first time Tucson has been on TV. Check out 12 other appearances:
