A Landmark Steakhouse For More Than 70 Years

Li’l Abner’s Steakhouse is a Tucson/Marana landmark that has been in operation since 1947. Li’l Abner’s sticks to the basics and lets the food speak for itself. Offering Steak, Chicken, Ribs and Fish options. Everyone that shows up hungry is sure to leave happy!

Dutches and Larry Lewis opened a bar at the site in 1947 and named it after their dog Abner. At the time the cartoon was popular, which was made famous by Al Capp starring the hillbilly cast which included Li’l Abner. The restaurant changed hands, and in 1981 David S. Hoffman bought the restaurant. He was a Criminal Defense attorney who had represented the previous owners, and loved the food too much to let the restaurant close. He has owned and operated it ever since making sure to maintain that same ambiance he fell in love with. The restaurant is run by loyal employees who have been with Hoffman since 1981, and some longer than that. The plan is to keep the tradition alive at Li’l Abner’s Steakhouse, with no plans on changing anytime soon!

Li’l Abner’s prides itself on simplicity. Treating the meat the right way and taking their time ensures that each visit will be as delicious as the last.

Li’l Abner’s smokes their ribs for 7 hours, and finishes them over the open Mesquite fire, allowing them to absorb as much of that flavor as possible. BBQ Sauce is always served on the side, as they believe it adds to the flavor, but don’t believe it should ever cover it up.

Make sure you enjoy their homemade pies and cobblers, the perfect way to top off a great meal!
