Mellow Food Philosophy

Mellow is a State of mind, a culture, a way of being. Our mission is to provide delicious food in a fun and creative environment. We are the originators of hand tossed, stone baked classic southern pizza. Our spring water crust is unique and flavorful, and all our pies are made with high quality, fresh ingredients. Our philosophy is to elevate the dining experience with a higher order of pizza. Mellow out.

Our Dough

We source the best possible ingredients to create our signature Mellow dough. This means the finest variety of high protein, unbromated unbleached wheat flour, Appalachian spring water and no refined white sugar. We take pride in baking the best quality pizza dough for all our pies, pretzels, and calzones.

Sauce

It starts with vine-ripened, hand-selected tomatoes, which are picked and processed within hours of harvest. We then add a proprietary blend of herbs and spices, and cook it all the old fashioned way – simmered low, slow and easy – to release all the flavors. We never use additives or preservatives to make our sauce last longer. One bite and you can taste the difference!

Meats

Our chicken and steak are 100% all-natural. No additives. No preservatives. No hormones. No steroids. No worries. We also use thick-cut, premium hickory bacon and top of the line deli meats. There really is a difference.

Vegetarian and vegan Options

We offer a large variety of vegetarian options, many of which can be easily made vegan. We also offer vegan cheese, which is free of animal and soy products, and a good source of calcium. Our veggie customers always leave full, happy, and satisfied!

Pizza Boxes

Our famous brown pizza box is actually the greenest pizza box in the country. It has a negative carbon footprint and is made from 100% recycled material. But that’s not all: our brown napkins, paper towels, and tissues are also made from 100% recycled products, and our paper cups are recyclable and made from rapidly renewable resources. We print everything with environmentally friendly soy ink. Now that’s good karma!

Salad Dressings

Love salads? Then you’ll love this: all our dressings are gluten-free and we offer 100% all natural dressings, with no room for hydrogenated oil, artificial ingredients, or flavor enhancers, they’re just good old-fashioned yumminess. And speaking of yummy, be sure to try our signature Esperanza dressing. One taste of this craveable sensation and you’ll understand why it has a cult-like following.

Cheeses

Our mozzarella is the highest quality available premium, part-skim real mozzarella. It’s been patiently aged to deliver the best creamy flavor and melt. It’s never frozen and we won’t allow the addition of any additives or preservatives used in lower cost cheeses.
