Mellow Mushroom In Cape Coral Sets Opening Date

If you live in the Cape, it's time to get excited because Mellow Mushroom in Cape Coral has set an opening date.

Being from Chicago, I feel like I was born with a love for pizza in my blood. While Chicago-style 'za is my favorite, when it comes to pizza, I like a little bit of everything. How can you go wrong with good dough, delicious sauce, melty cheesy goodness and toppings to your hearts desire? It's a food that I don't think I've ever heard anyone dislike.

Here in Southwest Florida, we have a lot of great pizza. I have to be honest that outside of Fort Myers and Cape Coral, I haven't gotten to too many pizza spots, but I'm trying to expand beyond my tried and true. My favorite is the Chicago from Chicago Pizza in Cape Coral, but I also really enjoy Downtown House of Pizza, Uncle Rico's, Mellow Mushroom and Two Meatballs in the Kitchen. And speaking of Mellow Mushroom, a new location is coming to Southwest Florida.

Back in October, construction began on the new Mellow Mushroom in Cape Coral. It will be on Pine Island Road right next door to Gator Mike's. According to the Mellow Mushroom website, the official opening date will be June 3rd and this will be the 3rd Mellow Mushroom location in Southwest Florida. The other two are in Estero in University Village and Fort Myers right on Daniels by Whole Foods.

They have a lot of fun and funky combinations and one of my favorite pizzas at Mellow Mushroom is the Holy Shiitake. Usually I do like meat on my pizza, but I am a junkie for truffle anything so I had to try it and I keep going back for it. This pizza has a base of olive oil & garlic with a variety of mushrooms, caramelized onions, mozzarella and cheddar cheeses, a garlic aioli swirl and black truffle oil on top. Trust me when I say it is absolutely delicious.

Highest-Rated Pizza Restaurants in Naples in 2023 According to Yelp

Pizza is one of the most beloved foods in the world, enjoyed by people of all ages and cultures. It's a versatile dish that can be customized with endless toppings and flavors to suit personal tastes. But what makes a pizza truly great?

We all have our personal preferences when it comes to what makes one pizza better than another. There are a few key factors to consider. First, the crust must be crispy and flavorful. Next, the sauce must be delicious and balanced, not overpowering the other ingredients. When it comes to toppings, quality ingredients are a must. Toppings need to be evenly distributed ensuring every bite has a perfect blend of ingredients.

Did you know that there are 350 slices of pizza consumed every second in the United States, and the average American eats pizza at least once a month. I mean, what's not to love about a good, old-fashioned slice? How much does America love pizza? $45.1 billion in annual sales should give you a rough idea.

Naples Florida obviously traces it’s heritage back to Naples Italy so it’s no wonder there’s so many great pizza places in this town. Breaking it down to just the top 10 was an impossible choice so I went with scientific data from Yelp and left my own judgement out of this. Not all have social pages, but I included pics if I could because let's be honest, pizza is a beautiful sight to see.
