After 16 years at its Farmdale Ave. location, Mel’s Fish is winding down and expanding its reach with the new name – Mel’s Farmhouse – and including healthier fare and fresh farm foods.
The new and improved Mel’s Farmhouse will offer produce grown at their 20-acre farm located in the Angeles National Forest as well as its Louisiana fried and grilled favorites developed by its original owner, Mel Powell.
“Mel’s Fish is becoming farm-to-fork as part of our move back to the corner of Jefferson and Buckingham. This transition allows us to offer our customers a healthier menu, with our existing options enhanced and new items introduced from Day 1,” says Georgette Powell, daughter of Mel Powell.

“We’re also introducing a lighter, healthier menu with vegan, gluten-free, and vegetarian options. Savor our delicious vegan and gluten-free chocolate cake—undeniably one of the best you’ll ever taste! And don’t miss our vegetarian crab cakes made with lion’s mane mushrooms, which will send your taste buds to the moon,” she added.
To celebrate the transition, the business will host Customer Appreciation Day on Sunday, Sept. 29, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., at the Farmdale Ave. and Jefferson Blvd. site. Patrons will receive a 22% discount on all orders while supplies last.
Starting Nov. 1, Mel’s Fish will only be available via online ordering for delivery or pickup at www.melsfarmhouse.com. Mel’s Farmhouse plans to resume operations in Spring 2025 under new ownership at its original location at 4026 W. Jefferson Blvd, in Los Angeles.
