Denny's Is Resurrecting Its Fried Cheese Melt as the Mozzilla Melt

Denny's is bringing a 2010 fan favorite back from the dead, and honestly, the pun writes itself. The Fried Cheese Melt, a grilled cheese stuffed with deep-fried mozzarella sticks, is returning for Halloween under a scarier new name: the Mozzilla Melt. Four golden-fried mozzarella sticks plus American and provolone, grilled on sourdough, served with tomato sauce for dipping and wavy-cut fries.

This sandwich has been haunting Reddit for years, where people claim certain Denny's locations will still make it if you ask nicely. Now you don't have to whisper your order like a password. It hits participating locations October 7 and runs through November 3.

It is cheese all the way down.

Look, as someone who has worked with food at every level, I respect a product that knows exactly what it is. This is not pretending to be refined. It is a grilled cheese made out of other fried cheese products. It is cheese all the way down. And you know what? That is the most honest thing on a menu right now. See you at Denny's on the 7th.
