Slice by Saddleback

Rain or shine, we make it happen! We loved being part of helping so many kids and families kick off summer vacation. Thanks for spending part of your day with us, summer is officially here!

We had an amazing time catering a beautiful wedding on Lake Michigan today! Huge congratulations to the newlyweds, and thank you for trusting us to be part of your big day.

If you could only eat one cheese for the rest of your life, which cheese are you picking? I’m going Mozz. It’s not my favorite, but it’s crucial for so many great dishes.

Namely pizza.

We’re excited to share that a new restaurant is headed to downtown Mason. Full details below!

Assembly is coming to the heart of downtown Mason. Haslett native Jacob Welch, a culinary school graduate who spent 8 years at Butcher’s Union and worked his way up to Executive Chef, is returning home to lead Assembly.

We’ll be opening at 402 S. Jefferson St., next door to Kean’s.

Mason has some great spots already. We’re just hoping to add something that feels a little different: a warm, polished place with thoughtful drinks and recognizable food, elevated just enough to feel special without feeling unfamiliar.

I grew up in Mason and recently moved back to raise my family here, so bringing a restaurant to this community means a lot to me and my family personally. Mason is a place we genuinely love, and we’re excited to become part of downtown in a new way.

Assembly is the culmination of everything we’ve learned in this industry, the wins, the mistakes, and the work, brought together into what we believe is our most ambitious and exciting project yet.

We’re grateful for the opportunity and can’t wait to build something special for Mason.

Smoked Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza. We started with a housemade ranch base, topped with mozzarella, smoked pulled chicken from Saddleback BBQ, bacon, a ranch drizzle, and finished with a ranch-seasoned crust.

Results are in. 5 out of 5 employees loved it. Would you try it?
