When we started MIXT in San Francisco in 2005, we founded it on the belief that healthy, craveable, sustainable food should be accessible to all. We couldn’t make it delicious without procuring a wide variety of the freshest produce, sourced locally around the seasons. We couldn’t make it healthy without leaving out all the extras used to preserve or modify the taste of ingredients at their peak. And we couldn’t make it sustainable without committing to protect the ecosystems we tap into for building our culinary creations—ones that are both environmental and human. Almost two decades later, we are stewards of what’s become known as the MIXT Movement: the notion that macro-level change in our industry, as with any, is driven by the small actions that our team tackles on a micro-level. As a proud B corp, it’s our vision to transform the food industry with small conscious actions in our business practices. The result? A restaurant that reimagines what it means to eat better and inextricably links the growers, the makers, and the enjoyers to propel a healthier world MISSION STATEMENT: Our mission is to ignite positive change every day while nourishing a healthy world.
