Why We Love This Place
Oh man, when you're in Bentonville Meld Kitchen is the place to be.
Our family lives near Bentonville and we have checked the ingredients in restaurants all over town and found only a handful of restaraunts actually cook will all clean ingredients. Eating at most restaurants contributes to the next time you get sick. They put you just on the verge of getting sick. This is due to oils they use, non-organic options (meaning they have pesticide on them) and of course there's high fructose corn syrup and artificial flavors everywhere.
Meld Feels Nourishing
Meld is so wonderful. They work very hard to use good ingredients and you can taste and feel the difference when you're done. We walk away feeling satisfied, full, but not stuffed. Usually that "stuffed" feeling is from the seed oils places usisally cook in. "The grease" not so much the amount of food you eat.
I feel so good and full of energy when I leave Meld. When we bring people to Meld for the first time they rave about how good it is and we do too. Every time we leave give them a round of applause, because its just so rare to find a restaurant that actually cooks food that will nourish you and keep you healthy.
What We Love
Their menu has a great variety and every single items is incredible, so what ever you like you'll probably agree its the best one you've eaten anywhere.
Kids Food
We love their kids burgers and pizzas. We usually order an adult cheese pizza and ask to add grilled chicken on top. That saves us some money. Their kids meals are only about $6 so those are quite affordable too.
Sandwiches
Oh my goodness they have the freshest sandwiches and the chicken is cooked like no other, but they have an option of every diet. The gluten free dough thats used for sandwiches and pizza is from Sandie Sue Gluten Free Bakery in Centerton and its wonderful! The flour dough can be either wheat or white and we do love the wheat. The Mediterranean is our favorite but every once in a blue moon they release the legendary....
The Chicken Tinga!
This is one of the best dishes in Bentonville y'all. It's a chicken sandwich with a Mexican-tasting red sauce that I just love so much. This sandwich is on rotation as one of their daily specials, but they even text me when it's TINGA TIME. You gotta try it, follow them on Instagram for their daily Specials. When you see its available, drop everything and go get it. You'll see what i mean during that first bite.
Pizza
Their pizza is not good - it's outstanding! Good is a huge understatement, especially because their dough is hands-down the best. The steak pizza will make you say out loud how much love it instinctively. We like to share the cheese pizza and add their fantastic grilled chicken on top. Give it a try and just try any pizza that sounds good, because it will not be "good" - it will be outstanding. I've never had such a perfectly fluffy dough. It comes in white and wheat and their gluten free dough is legendary too. Again it's made just down the street at Sandi Sue's Gluten Free Bakery near Centerton.
Potatoes
I haven't had much of these but just look at them when you go in and it'll raise your eye brows. They are huge and packed with so much good chicken, cheese etc. (check their menu and images below.)
Summary
We absolutely love Meld Kitchen so much and we're just so thankful that they are here in little ol' Bentonville Arkansas where theres not a lot food that's truly good for you. We have to eat at home most of the time, but when we go out as a family or on dates we usually end up at Meld. Get on in there!
