We were staying in a nearby hotel. I paid $46 for a medium pizza delivered (some of that fee went to the door dasher). I asked for crispy and the pizza looked a little overcooked but the thin crust was not very crispy. Actually kind of soggy. Also, I am a little disappointed that my order (delivered to a hotel) came with no napkins or plates or plastic ware. I am glad that this hotel has towels. The pizza tastes pretty good. I have always heard raves about MM and this is my first time to order from there. I can only assume that in store service is better but I am not inclined to try them after this experience.

Let me start by saying this place is still AMAZING! It’s been several years since I have last been here, but have recently moved back into the area and this was one of my first stops. The service is always amazing, as the staff are always kind. The food is outstanding. The crust is unbeatable being hand made, fresh and airy then cooked crisp to perfection. There is enough pizza ideas for any taste mild to wild. And if you don’t find your favorite you can make a custom one. There is also every thing from salads, sandwiches and even burgers. The building is nice with indoor seating and also covered patio seating outside with TV’s for viewing. The decorating taste is eclectic and unique with all the lovely quirks that come with it. This is not your mom and pops pizza place, ITS BETTER! Stop b

Haven't been here in a while but the food is still great. Only the prices have risen . Example $ 17.00 for 10 wings I passed on things I would have liked to get. Had the veggie pie, it was loaded.

★★★★★ 5.0 Samuel Allen · Nov 2025

My gluten-free, dairy-free wife couldn’t keep her nose away from the “holy shiitake” pizza that I ordered, which was literally the best pizza I have ever had in my life (which is not an alcohol-influenced appraisal and, mind you, I’ve eaten a lot of pizza at a lot of places over 4 decades of life). The server was also very attentive, prices were reasonable, and the vibe was chill yet memorable. What more could you want on a Saturday night?

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Amy Suggs · Mar 2026

We’ve been eating Mellow Mushroom for 20+ years, in multiple towns and states. I’ve never been as disappointed in a restaurant as I was tonight. I’m not sure if they are under new management or what but the food (aside from the pizza crust) tasted completely different. The Greek salad was almost like a bagged salad and the toppings were basically non existent. The dressing was a vinaigrette, nothing like it used to be. The pizza sauce had no flavor and the toppings were so sparse that they should’ve just left them off altogether. . The service was SUPER slow although the server was very nice and seemed to be doing her best. It took 35 minutes to get our waters. However, If the food had been good the slow service could’ve been overlooked. When we got there I told them we had 4 adults and 2
