Whether you grew up in the Southeastern United States, or the craving for some soul food and fried goodness comes from out of nowhere, there aren't exactly a ton of options around metro Phoenix. Sure, you can dig up mac & cheese or chicken and waffles, but maybe you have a different hunger. Maybe you want some classic fried catfish nuggets or fried shrimp with the sweet (and just a hint of spice) sauce that takes you back to Atlanta or Memphis or Montgomery. If you’re constantly on the lookout for a new Southern food hotspot, you’re in luck, because a new option is now open and ready to help you satisfy those cravings.

Tucson, AZ

There’s nothing like a slice of pizza. Whether after a long day of work, after a kid’s sporting event, or you want something everyone can enjoy during the big game, pizza is often the best (and most affordable) option. Of course, you want to make sure your pizza place is not only tasty but up to health code standards. For the most part, every pizza restaurant around Tucson is, but one local spot did not perform adequately and was given an impending “Needs Improvement” grade. This means, another inspection is fast approaching, and the restaurant will either pass or fail.
