Mellow Mushroom

This mellow deserves a 5 star rating. Even better then the one in downtown. Service and good is better

This place is amazing! Great food and wonderful staff. Love it! They also have high chairs that roll and this keeps babies happy :)

Ugh.
I would leave the review to that but I feel like people should know what they are getting into when they come to this Mellow Mushroom. After a trip to the awesome Mellow Mushroom in city place (I welcome you to read the review) the other night I agreed to meet some friends in town from New England to try out a location close to where they were staying. Next time we are just going to make the drive to City Place.
As soon as we were seated something did not feel right. We sat down and ordered our beers I had a Category 3 and my friends had one of the Sam Adams they had on draft. As big beer drinkers we were surprised they looked kind of flat but we were not going to let that discourage us little did we know that would be the least of pur problems. We ordered some bruschetta which mainly tasted like olive oil. It lacked seasoning as well as having very brown basil. This lack of fresh produce should have tipped is off but we staggered on. The house special pizza took 30 minutes to arrive which we were surprised since the restaurant was not very busy. The bottom of the pizza was pretty dark not exactly the golden brown we love about stone baked pizza. We ate a couple slices and waited till our server came out from wherever she was hiding. We could not believe how bothered she was that we flagged her down to get our check so we just paid it and left.
I would definately not recommend this place to anyone. Between overcooked pizza and bruschetta mix that was clearly thrown together without care we will not be back.

Great service and food, right around the corner easy and fast. Family friendly and fun atmosphere. Ask for Corndel at the bar.

I love Mellow Mushroom, but I am sorry, this Mellow Mushroom in particular burnt our pizza. I ordered a total of three pizzas to pick up and he showed them to me as in opening the box to make sure it was what I ordered. When I got home the Meat Pizza was burnt. The crust was so burnt it was black so I picked off the toppings and ate them even though some of it was burnt as well. The other two pizzas were cheese one small and one medium. The small one was so burnt the cheese was burnt as well. Next time I order I will absolutely make sure that my pizzas are not burnt.
*****Update******
The manager at this store was phenomenal!!! I want to let you know that my whole entire purchase was refunded to our card!!! Thank you so much and I am so sorry that this happened.

I like this pizza a lot and this has become my go to place. It has always been cooked perfect. The crust is delicious. I’ve only tried cheese pizza because that’s all my kids will eat, but perhaps I’ll eventually try with topings.

This places is super cool. Inside tons of TV and cool décor. Staff was really nice and the waitress walked my son around to show him all the different things in the restaurant. Love love love the salads and their balsamic. You basically can create anything you want which is nice for me because I’m picky while my husband will eat anything and everything. The pizza was really good and they had a really nice selection. I was really pleasantly surprised with this place. The restaurant was incredibly clean. When my daughter dropped her fork before I could even slide out of the booth our waitress came running over to grab it and had brought new utensils. Our cups were never empty and she brought lots of extra napkins because well we have kids and that’s just smart lol. Really liked it here and will be back. Had better pizza and more authentic taste than some of the pizza restaurants and higher priced Italian restaurants. Love that it’s family friendly but you could enjoy it on a date night. Very casual and laid back and something for everyone on the menu made the way you like it.

Great food, burgers + barbecue sauce are great, but pizza reins supreme.
Service is often painfully slow, though.

Great restaurant, the food is great. Only thing is that the noise level is pretty loud and I got a headache while I was there. I ordered the house calzone and it was really good! One of my favorites is their pretzels as an appetizer. Overall a pretty nice place and I would definitely go there again.

Just ok. Nothing special. Typical mellow mushroom menu but tastes better at other locations that I have been to. Maybe as they are in business longer, food will get better.

Worst place ever, our waitress was fine but employee staff seems to be all high school students, or at least their work effort was of that caliber. They were shouting horsing around the entire time. Wasn’t a comfortable meal, food was just ok, I won’t be back just because of the atmosphere alone

My boyfriend and I have been here twice. I usually get the strombolis which Im a huge fan of. My boyfriend usually gets pizza. He runs a family owned pizza place so he’s pretty picky. He thought the pizza was pretty good. We like the atmosphere inside. Our waiters were both friendly and helpful during our visits.

We have tried very hard to like Mellow Mushroom, several times we’ve tried. We first visited months ago with a Groupon, which turned into a fiasco. Instead of the waitress just explaining at the end of our meal that she wasn’t sure how to redeem the Groupon and getting the proper information she simply redeemed it then we found out it was not usable at this location. Then the manager got involved and told us the onus was on us to get our money back from Groupon. She reluctantly gave us $ 10 off our order and left us to deal with Groupon (note: we never got our money back). We left angry, and upon arriving home I went on their website and filed a complaint with corporate. Next Day I get a phone call and eventually in the mail I get coupons. We swallow our pride and decide to give it another go.
The next trip back was pleasant enough, but I got to tell you that the people saying this place has great pizza are people who have no idea what pizza is… put it this way, if Papa John’s, Domino’s and Pizza Hut all got together and agreed that they would try to start making good pizza, they would aim to be Mellow Mushroom. What they make here is good… but it ain’t pizza.
To make my point of why MM should get zero stars, here is the tale of our 3^rd and final attempt to try and like this place. We were seated right outside the open kitchen, and there he was, tossing dough in the air. He was a large man covered in sweat, wearing a ball cap with a ponytail halfway down his back. Granted his hair was in a ponytail, but every time he leaned forward, his hair «leaned forward» as well. He was constantly touching his hat and wiping the sweat from his head. And even though he was wearing rubber gloves, they were the same rubber gloves that would then touch the pizza dough that you were about to eat. Not wanting to be the jerk in the room, I didn’t bother telling the manager. We wrap the remaining food at the table, payed the bill (took care of the waitress because she did do a good job) and on the way out the door, we told the Host about the slob who was quite visible in the kitchen.
Never again, we are done with this place.

Great drinks, happy courteous service. The place could be a little more colorful, the food was surprisingly tasty except for the tofu, that’s why I’m giving 4 stars. But I will of course return. Chill local place.

Open kitchen means customers can see what you are doing!
A fat, long-​haired moron in the kitchen was clearly seen dropping a pretzel on the floor, looking around, then put it back into the oven. Maybe he thought it would cook off the filth from a floor. I immediately walked over and you can see the cook cringing, and knew he was busted. I told two people, one of which was our server. She told the «owner».
If the idiot who came to our table is the owner, I would recommend that everyone stays away from this restaurant. He said, I don’t know what happened, but I was told to come over here. He said, don’t worry, you won’t get that pretzel, but then showed up with our pretzels within 2 minutes. He acted like it’s no big deal, but let me tell you something, it’s a HUGE deal. Food that is dropped on the floor before being served is something that should be punished with jail time.
I will never go back to this dump as long as he is the owner. STAY AWAY FOR YOUR OWN HEALTH!

The pizza here is good. It’s not awesome but, it’s good. On a scale of Pizza Hut being a 1 and beau Jo’s pizza from Colorado being a 10, mellow mushroom would be a 5. It was $ 45 for a small pizza and a medium pizza with 2 drinks. Non alcoholic. The real reason it got 3 stars though is the service. Customer service is everything. Long wait to be waited on, long wait for order, no refills of drinks until the end of the meal and they had been empty since before we got our food, and no attention to detail I.e. Utensils. Decent but overpriced food. Not worth it.
UPDATE: tried again. Shame on me. Service still sucked. Long waits. No refills. Dropping rating to 2.

Wow wow wow. Fantastic pizza! My husband and I got a large half house and half funky q chicken. It was to die for. Especially the funky q chicken — BBQ chicken pizza with a sweet BBQ sauce. It was delicious.
Our server was also really awesome. He was super friendly and attentive.
My husband also got free Stella beer glasses as they were getting rid of them so he was pleased
It does take a little longer than the typical chain pizza places, and it’s a bit more expensive… however, it is totally worth it!

Great atmosphere! Super cocktails and amazing food! Very friendly staff! Fun place to have cocktails locally!

The place is very clean and has a polo décor, which suits the Wellington’s equestrian area very well. The open kitchen gives customers the chance to watch the cooks toss pizzas in the air while waiting for your order to arrive.
I came here with a group of girlfriends last night and it was a good time. We shared and munched on spinach dip and soft pretzels. The pretzels were garlic parmesan, butter herb, and cinnamon sugar topped with honey. It came with mustard and pizza dipping sauces. You can never go to a Mellow Mushroom and not get a pizza. We had a medium pizza, half BBQ chicken and half Maui Wowie. 6 slices of pure goodness. It didn’t help that we are already carbaholics, so the more bread, the more better.
Our server was great and he didn’t have us wait long for our food. He was attentive and made sure we were happy with our food and kept our table clean the entire time. Go and be mellow. You can thank me later.

Before you walk inside there’s a pair of up-​cycled horses made of reclaimed car & motorcycle parts; it’s absolutely beautiful and an absolutely brilliant idea!
Upon entry, we were greeted by a friendly, smiling hostess and then we were sat immediately. The second thing I noticed was the noise level; the whole place is just plain loud. My husband couldn’t hear what I was saying over dinner and it doesn’t help that he already has a hearing issue, which kept me from being relaxed & distracted me the entire time. This particular location has the industrial look, which helps the noise bounce off of every wall in the joint… And the sound of kids crying is only amplified.
It’s difficult not to notice the beautiful reclaimed décor all over, and the unique, colorful polo mural on the wall — perfect theme for the Polo capital of the world. The kitchen in the rear of the space is visible from every corner of the dining area. My husband and I were watching pizzas being tossed after we gave Catalina our order — entertaining! The bar area is beautiful with lots of craft beers on draft.
Our server was perfectly attentive & we didn’t wait long for our food. When our pie came out, it looked perfectly cooked & delicious — and it definitely was!
We’ll definitely be back, but not too soon… Pizza isn’t the best diet for maintaining our girlish figures.
