Original Mellow was in downtown Atlanta.

Deano's


I seriously don't get the love for this place. The one at LSU was TERRIBLE. I recall seeing frozen pizza crust. Why did it close?

I think we should have a Deano's vs Johnny's showdown. What city has the biggest homers?

Were you there when Antoines first opened?

No, but my great, great, great grandparents were.

I hope M.M. survives but they have heavy competition with some long seated Lafayette incumbents.

There was a pizza joint on Oak St by Tulane that produced some damn good pies in that era. The pie was a "Chicago" style thing, and just a few slices would fill you up easily.

I will choose Mellow over the local cracker crust pizza any day. That's not pizza.
I'll try my best to keep it in business. Idk if I could support a 14k lease though. But I'll try.

Oh and I never called it Laffy until I lived in BR for 5 years. I now refer to it as Laffy to my Nola and BR friends

It actually looks like they bought the building.

Heard it was 30K per month, but I don't know for sure.

I do hope it makes it here. Went to another location out of town and it had a good vibe and had good pizza.

I've haven't had the pizza there because I can never get past this, which I get every time...
