Bold flavor. Big portions. Made with love. Chef Mo brings the soul of Southern cooking straight to Tempe — slow-cooked oxtails, fall-off-the-bone ribs, and all the comfort food your heart's been craving.
ChowDown AZ is Chef Mo's love letter to Southern Alabama cooking — the kind of food that takes hours to make and seconds to disappear off your plate. Slow-cooked oxtails braised until they fall off the bone, finished in a rich house gravy with a seasoning blend that's entirely his own. No shortcuts. No pork. Just real, honest flavor.
From BBQ beef ribs and loaded cheesesteaks to crispy wings, loaded fries, and sides that could easily be the whole meal — every item on the menu is built around one principle: make it with love and make it worth coming back for.
Cap it off with banana pudding or peach cobbler and you'll understand why comfort food hits different when someone actually cares about the craft. ChowDown AZ opens May 19th inside Tempe Eats.
