LIKE A HEARTH TO A HOME, THE FIRE AT MEL'S IS WHERE IT ALL BEGINS
Mel's Wood-Fired Pizzeria | New York City
MEL'S IS A PIZZA RESTAURANT RUN BY MICHELIN-DECORATED CHEF MELISSA RODRIGUEZ
The centerpiece of the menu is a wood-oven pizza, designed to be a cross between a Neapolitan pie and a New York slice; with a chewy, bready crust and enough structural integrity to be eaten slice in hand. The restaurant has no gas cooktops; everything is cooked over an open fire.
BOTH THE DESIGN OF MEL'S AND CHEF MELISSA RODRIGUEZ'S MENU ARE INFORMED BY THE HEARTH AT THE RESTAURANT'S CENTER
Everything on the menu is intended to be shared and is prepared either over a wood-fired grill or in the chrome-tiled pizza oven. The menu is versatile enough to satisfy those leaving the office for a glass of wine and a plate of grilled prawns at the bar; or a three-course family-style feast for a friend’s birthday or fun celebration.
WE KNOW HOW TO THROW A PARTY
