Late in 2014, Uncle Maddio’s Pizza Joint opened its second Florida location in the Deerwood Village Shopping Center at Baymeadows Rd. and Southside Blvd. in Jacksonville. Franchisee Kevin Gartner holds the rights to operate several Uncle Maddio’s units in Northern Florida, including two in Gainesville. The Atlanta, Georgia-based franchise chain has other multi-unit agreements for Florida in place that will see restaurants opening in the Ocala, Panhandle and Tallahassee markets. The chain is also targeting the Tampa, Lakeland and Fort Myers markets for 2015. The six year old create-your-own quick casual pizza chain presently operates about 30 restaurants in twelve states and counts over 200 locations under development. The restaurants offer a made-from-scratch individual pizza with up to three toppings, baked in six minutes. Guests can choose one of three crusts, including a gluten-free option, and have the choice of 48 toppings including six sauces, 27 vegetables and 15 meats. A ‘take-and-bake’ option offers a quick family meal at home. The menu also features toasted Panini sandwiches and create-your-own salads with a vast buffet of fresh vegetables, as well as signature salads such as Greek, Chicken Caesar and Santa Fe.
