We absolutely love Mellow Mushroom! This time we ordered the Valentine’s promo, which included two small pizzas and pretzel bites. We chose the Mighty Meaty and Super Pepp pizzas, and both were delicious as always. The pretzel bites were AMAZING, made with their pizza dough, which is honestly one of the main reasons we keep coming back. We also ordered the pepperoni rolls, which are always on point. The tomato sauce and aioli that come with them are both a must and pair perfectly with the rolls. The environment is always great, and their customer service never disappoints. We ordered online and the process was seamless. We picked up the order expecting a wait, but it was ready in about 6-8 minutes and I literally placed the order about 3 minutes before arriving. We’ve definitely become regulars here. Everything from the food quality to the service is just right. Highly recommend!

This was not our first Mellow Mushroom experience by any means, but this was our first time at this location. It’s a shame that we had a bad experience with our server because our food was really good, but we will NOT be back to this location. For his own privacy, I won’t say his name, but our server, sporting a “Grumpy Old Vet” hat, was very unprofessional towards me and my wife. At first, we decided to get waters before our pizza and he kindly asked “Are you sure? You guys don’t want any drinks?” My wife and I politely said no thank you, we just wanted water. He strangely kept referring to us as “girls” and “you girls” - and respectfully, my wife and I are fully grown women… I definitely look WAY more like a dude than a woman, I’m very masculine. The tone felt patronizing in a way. During our 45 minute visit, he approached us no less than 13 times - 6 of those encounters he continued to ask us over and OVER if we wanted drinks, insisting “Are you sure? I can fix some up for you, I can pack some up for you.” We said no EVERY time. Surely after the 2nd or 3rd time we said no, that should have been enough to send the message. I started listening to his interactions with the other booths on either side of us and he wasn’t asking or insisting that anyone else get drinks. It was so strange. At the end of our meal, we asked for a pizza box and some lids for our sauce cups. I boxed up our pizza and closed it. This man came to our table and OPENED OUR BOX with his bare hands and started to explain something that I barely had the wherewithal to understand because why are you touching our packed up food?? He literally opened up our box of packed up food and was very much in my personal bubble. All in all, it was very strange and I wish I had felt brave enough to say something in person, but omg.. it was very uncomfortable.

The service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and fast. The staff made sure everything came out just right, and they checked in often without being intrusive. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal and good conversation. Definitely recommend this location!
