Nothing picks up the body and mind like a helping of soul food. It has a way of melting you into your seat and putting a smile on your face. From fried foods to greens, there’s something for everyone. Even those who are not vegetable lovers can savor the taste of collard greens after cooking with ham, infusing the greens with a salty, juicy, deliciousness that helps you forget you’re getting a solid helping of your daily vegetables. Combine that with cornbread and fried chicken and you have yourself a meal few restaurants can rival. And if you live in metro Phoenix, a new soul food restaurant is now open and ready to serve. 

This new soul food location comes to the Valley by way of St. Louis. Momma’s Soul Fish & Chicken first started as a takeout-only restaurant, but it has since moved to a dine-in and take-out restaurant after moving to north Phoenix at 15414 North 19th Avenue. The menu, whether you check it out through the restaurant’s Facebook page or you’re looking at it when stopping by the restaurant, is packed with food that will satisfy even the pickiest of eaters. You will find St. Louis pork ribs, pork chops, collard greens, fried catfish, tri-tip baby back ribs, fried shrimp, not to mention several variations of chicken and waffles (or shrimp and fish and waffles if you want to switch it up a bit), deep fried okra, hush puppies, and cornbread. 

Maybe you have a bit of a sweet tooth that needs satisfying? Sure thing. You will find homemade peach cobbler, chocolate cake, apple pie, and banana pudding, just to name a few. The menu is simply too packed to mention everything, so the best way to view all the options is to view food photos on Momma’s Soul Fish & Chicken’s Facebook page, or just stop by the restaurant and see everything for yourself. 

The restaurant is closed on Monday, but it is open Tuesday through Saturday, from 11 AM until 9 PM, and on Sunday from 11 AM until 7 PM. If you are familiar with Momma’s Soul Fish & Chicken’s drive-through-only restaurant in San Tan Valley you will want to skip that location, as it has closed. This was done so the family-owned operation could focus all of its efforts on opening this dine-in and take-out restaurant. It is now open and ready to satisfy all of your soul food cravings.

Chicken Restaurant From Denver Opening in Town

If you have spent any time driving around Scottsdale in recent months, you may have happened onto a new restaurant called Birdcall. The restaurant stands out as it possesses a unique external eating area that feels part 1950s, part new age, all blended into one unique design. And yet, it still has a traditional drive-through. The massive glass windows from the dining area opens and almost invites curiosity, unlike the majority of fast food chains, which apply heavy tints and advertising stickers, making it nearly impossible to see what’s going on inside. This unique restaurant has a mission, and it’s also expanding in metro Phoenix, with a second restaurant open and the possibility of more on the way.

Flies in Bread, Possible Contamination at Local Restaurants

Over the past week, hundreds of local restaurants around greater Phoenix received their annual health inspections. Nearly all of these restaurants passed, many with flying colors. However, two restaurants, one in Phoenix, and the other in Gilbert, performed poorly. Each received a D grade, which is the lowest possible passing grade.

Popular Ghost Taco Restaurant Open Next Month

Ghost kitchens have a way of drumming up business thanks to the hush-hush exclusivity of the restaurant. It is one of those locations you have to be in-the-know to discover.

Ghost kitchens sprouted in greater numbers during COVID, but the trend continues. And now, one of the most talked about ghost kitchens in metro Phoenix will be taking over a local restaurant and fully serving the general public for the next month.

Award Winning Wings Restaurant Coming Soon.

When thinking of the best chicken wings, you might not instantly think of Korean chicken. While Korean chicken is a spin on American fried chicken, which first made an appearance on the Asian peninsula during the Korean War (thanks to American servicemen preparing the dish), the style has taken off here in the States. One chain restaurant in particular recently was named the “Best Wings” in Dallas. And now, the chicken wings are coming here to Tucson, where not one, but three new restaurants are in the works.

Popular Italian Restaurant Opens Second Location

When it comes to comfort food, few cuisines can compete with Italian. With heaping servings of carbs, cut with garlic and proteins, there’s no wonder as to why the culinary style stands as one of the most popular options not just around metro Phoenix, but around the country. There’s something satisfying about a plate of pasta with house-made sauce, or when a meatball has just the right blend of fat, protein, and seasoning. And yet, while there are several Italian restaurants around the Valley, one location that excels at producing Italian-inspired dishes has recently opened a second location.

Rodent Droppings Found in Food, Restaurant Remains Open

Every restaurant around greater Tucson receives an annual health inspection visit. This is to make sure not only all the ins and outs of the restaurants are up to the necessary health and safety standards, but that all the certifications are current as well. The vast majority of restaurants around Tucson perform well during their inspections and don’t warrant any write-ups. However, one recent restaurant performed so poorly that it has been placed on probation. Should it fail its upcoming inspection re-visit it faces losing its restaurant license.

Rock N Roll Restaurant From Alabama Now Open

Rock and roll, sushi, and Alabama. Not exactly three things you normally group together. If this was Sesame Street and you had to decide which one of those was not like the other, you would likely say all of them. And yet, Rock N Roll Sushi, based out of Alabama, has surged in popularity, thanks to its Americanized take on sushi. In the 13 years since its original opening, the restaurant has spread across the country, and it is now open in metro Phoenix.

New Health Food Restaurant Now Open in Metro Phoenix

Taco Restaurant From California Now Open, Giving Away Free Tacos For A Year

Do you enjoy tacos but wish they weren’t as messy? Perhaps you end up with half of the taco filling splattered across your lap by the time you’re done with dinner. If that’s the case, why not opt for the rolled-up taquito version of a taco? These basically marry tacos and burritos together to give you a meal with the convenience of easy dipping. However, instead of settling for the frozen taquitos out of the box, a new restaurant brand has started popping up around metro Phoenix, and after a successful initial launch, a second location is opening, and is giving away free taquitos for a full year.

Midwest Burger Chain is Coming to Phoenix

When traveling around the country, you will find a select number of very interesting chains that, somehow, haven’t escaped the region. You might sink your teeth into a burger, try a taco, devour a pancake, or nibble at poutine, and wonder why, on earth, the restaurant doesn’t exist back home. Sometimes the location wants to stay regional. Other times it is family owned and they are perfectly content with remaining in one general location. Then, for one reason or another, the chain decides it wants to begin the expansion, which it has pushed off for years if not decades. Well, that is exactly what is transpiring in Phoenix, as a regional Midwestern restaurant has its eyes set on the Valley as a new destination to try and satisfy customers.

Local Restaurant Chain Closes 3rd Location in as Many Weeks

Generally speaking, when restaurant brands perform well they tend to expand. And yet, for one reason or another, there are times when brands decide to contract, instead of open up new locations. For one particular chain, which is about as Tucson as a restaurant brand can get, sales have continued on an upward trajectory for years, and yet, despite this, the local chain has closed up three local restaurants, with the possibility of more to come.

Popular Chain Restaurant Hit With "D" Health Inspection Grade

Typically, when it comes to annual health inspections at restaurants, chains tend to outperform locally owned counterparts. While not a hard and fast rule, these locations do perform well because the franchise has oversight groups that will monitor to make sure local restaurants perform well and, if they don’t, may remove the owner or manager and replace the individual with someone who can ensure the restaurant is clean. The brand must maintain its image, and as such, location managers and workers follow very specific cleaning requirements. However, with that said, one chain restaurant in metro Phoenix performed especially poorly on their annual inspection, resulting in a D grade.
