Riko’s Pizza launches summer of salad pizzas with three new options

Riko’s new full-time salad menu format, offering any signature salad in a bowl, on a pie, or in a whole wheat wrap.

Riko’s Pizza a highly differentiated tavern-style pizza franchise concept, announced today its “Summer of Salad Pizzas,” which introduces three innovative salad pizza limited-time-offerings (“LTOs”) that reflect the many different flavors of summer. Available at all Riko’s locations from May 27^th through Labor Day (September 1^st), these LTOs include:

Chicken Caesar: A classic on Riko’s signature pizza menu for the last decade, the reinvented Chicken Caesar salad pizza features house-roasted chicken, fresh chopped romaine lettuce, grated parmesan cheese, and crunchy, house-toasted croutons tossed with Caesar dressing—then laid on Riko’s new Caesar-baked crust, which replaces the pizza sauce from the original recipe.

Mediterranean Chicken and Spinach: Built on a crust brushed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and sprinkled with parmesan and herbs, Riko’s new Mediterranean Chicken and Spinach salad pizza features house-roasted chicken on a bed of crisp chopped spinach, topped with freshly diced cucumbers and grape tomatoes, crispy bacon, crumbled feta cheese, and finished with a mouth-watering balsamic drizzle.

BBQ Chicken Ranch: Inspired by America’s true summer love—the backyard grill—Riko’s all-new BBQ Chicken Ranch salad pizza starts with a crust lightly brushed with sweet and savory Carolina BBQ sauce, then topped with house-roasted chicken on a bed of freshly chopped romaine lettuce, along with diced red onions, cucumbers, and grape tomatoes. The pie is finished with a cross-drizzle of BBQ sauce and ranch dressing.

Riko’s three new Summer of Salad Pizzas – the reinvented Chicken Caesar, Mediterranean Chicken and Spinach, and all-new BBQ Chicken Ranch pies.

“Nobody does salad pizza quite like Riko’s, and our culinary team has truly outdone itself with these delicious pies that are perfect for summer,” said Rico Imbrogno, founder and CEO of Riko’s Pizza. “Over the past six months, we have completely reimagined our culinary innovation practices, which are now led by our President and Chief Operating Officer, Carl Bachmann, who brings decades of diverse culinary and menu development experience to the team. As a result, these new Summer of Salad Pizza LTOs are incredible. Built on our super thin-crust with their own distinct sauces, they are fresh, light, and flavor-packed with every bite. Bottomline, we brought together some of America’s favorite summertime salad recipes with our famous tavern-style pizza. So be sure to visit Riko’s this summer—you do not want to miss this!”

In connection with the excitement of Riko’s “Summer of Salad Pizzas,” the Company will be rolling out later this summer it’s new full-time salad menu format, which provides customers with the option to enjoy any of Riko’s 11 signature salad recipes in a bowl, on a pie, or in a whole wheat wrap. During the “Summer of Salad Pizzas,” customers may also order any of the three LTO salad pizza recipes in a bowl or wrap.

“Riko’s is changing the game not only for pizza lovers, but also salad fans,” added Mr. Bachmann. “By enabling customers to choose how they want their salad prepared—traditionally in a bowl, creatively on a pie, or functionally in a wrap—we are seamlessly adding more optionality to our menu that will enhance the overall consumer experience. Further, it deepens our lunch and catering offering, which are critical to the markets we serve with significant professional, family, and academic populations.”
