Wonderful waitress, everything delicious, perfectly made and served . Piping hot, wonderful sauces. Salad was exactly how it was ordered. Vegetables were so fresh and presented beautifully. read more

We were craving pizza so we came here for lunch. The waitress was very friendly and there weren't a lot of people inside. We order pepperoni pizza rolls ands half and half pizza (half pepperoni and half house special minus tomatoes and black olives). Despite it not being a crowded it took a long time for the pizza rolls to come out. You can choose 2 dipping sauces. We chose marinara and ranch. The ranch was good. You can tell it was homemade. The marinara was very bland. It didn't have any taste to it. The pizza was.......ok..... the toppings were good but the crust was burnt and you could taste it. With that being said this place is marked off our list. read more

3 star, slow service, long wait for food; this place was just ok. A bit of a wait on a Saturday evening after sitting at the bar area. Took awhile to be greeted and have our food and beverage orders taken. The food was overall good (think greasy cheesiness); got the pepperoni mellow rollz which were a good option after being told the spinach dip had run out that night. Also got the Great White pizza, which satisfied the hunger. Service was much not great, not sure if they were understaffed. It was a steady evening with customers, but not overly packed indoor and outdoor. I'd probably go somewhere else but good location. read more

The Mellow Mushroom located in downtown Birmingham is such a solid spot when you're in the mood for pizza. First of all, I just want to say how much I appreciate that they have their own parking lot. It is small and sometimes difficult to get out of, but I'll take any parking I can get in Five Points. It's very close to UAB, which is also convenient for hungry students like me. The food itself is delicious! I would really recommend getting one of their specialty pizzas as opposed to just a plain cheese or pepperoni. My personal favorite is the Great White. It's got an olive oil and garlic base and includes different cheeses like ricotta and sheep's milk feta. I believe there are also tomatoes and onions on it as well. It's such a good combination of different flavors. Overall, I haven't had a bad experience yet at Mellow, and would recommend others check it out. read more

The food was great. The service was terrible. The waitress was on her phone most of the time and I had to call her over twice and then called her over by contacting her coworker. read more

Mellow Mushroom has been a staple of mines since high school since it's location is only a small walk from my alma mater. One of my favorite, and usual, orders is the smoked buffalo wings. This time, I ordered the wings with a pepperoni and buffalo chicken pizza. My best friend and I usually order our food to split and this was our first time trying the buffalo chicken pizza. It wasn't bad but I think I'll stick to the pepperoni from now on. I ordered a margarita and absolutely loved it, though. I'm an old fashioned margarita girl and their margarita is definitely in the top 5 of margaritas I've tried. My best friend tried the jalapeno margarita and I tried a sip as well. She was a big fan of it and I was not so I wouldn't recommend it but if the spice of alcohol isn't enough for you, give it a try. The servers are always kind and accommodating and the same can be said for this time. Once, I was heartbroken to order buffalo smoked wings to be told that they didn't have any wings but that was, luckily, not the case this time. The food and service is always great when I visit so I know I'll be back in the near future. read more

My roommates and I decided to go here after we all got done with classes this past Friday. I've been to the Mellow Mushroom that is located past the Summit but not this one. I have to say I was not disappointed with this location just like I was not disappointed with the Summit location. My go to order is always the holy shiitake pizza. I always get this one because the red sauce on other pizzas always give me heartburn unfortunately. I love the garlic aioli on the pizza. The pizzas here are always so fresh and the crust is always crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. They make the pizzas fresh in an oven so it is always nice and hot. I had no issue with this locations service either, they gave us our food in a very timely manner and refilled our drinks without us even having to ask. read more

I enjoyed it at a friend's house! It was very good and probably one of the better pizzas that you can get in the area!

I recently had a fantastic experience at Mellow Mushroom, and I can confidently say it's one of the best pizza spots in town. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with fun decor which made it the perfect place to unwind after my class. I ordered the Holy Shiitake Pie, and it was phenomenal. It had a mix of garlic, onions, and mushrooms on their signature crust The crust was perfectly baked--crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I also tried their pretzel bites with beer cheese, which were the perfect starter. read more

I had pizza July 4th! This location was pretty slow but this Merry Prankster pizza was made with L O V E and I super appreciated the workers there on a holiday! I enjoyed our view of the kitchen and imagine this restaurant gets pretty busy during peak times. You can tell by photo lighting its pizzeria style with fun mushroomy lights! read more

Last Night, my friend and I were craving pizza and decided to stop by Mellow Mushroom. We were waited on by Camp and Ysabel who were extremely helpful throughout our visit. We ordered the Bruschetta as an extremely delicious appetizer! I ordered the Holy Shiitake Pie and my friend ordered the Pacific Rim. Everything was cooked to perfection. While we were there, the restaurant hosted a Trivia Night with a broad spectrum of questions. They announced they do this every Tuesday from 6-8. This is something my friend will join in on soon. One thing I took note of was Ysabel's knowledge of guests that frequent bingo night. I feel this is an admirable level of awareness, especially in the service industry. Good job to Mellow and the employees for the stellar visit! read more

They take forever to make a simple pizza. I wouldn't bother coming here. It's so frustrating waiting and waiting.

I enjoyed my visit today. The ambiance fits the theme so well. It's extremely mellow, not too loud and not too bright. The waitress was so kind and patient with us. We got the house pizza and wings. And it was the best decision we could have made. The pizza was one of the best pizzas I've had recently. The crust was perfect. The wings paired so well with the pizza. Great food. The parking is not great but it's definitely a must visit! read more

I recently went to Mellow Mushroom at Five Points South and tried the Gourmet White pizza, and it was such a good experience. Since this week we're focusing on vegetarian and gluten-free options, I wanted to try something that didn't have meat, and this pizza was perfect. The Gourmet White has three different types of cheese, and as someone who loves cheese, it was honestly amazing. The flavor was rich and creamy without being too heavy, and the crust was baked just right, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I also liked the atmosphere of the restaurant. It has a fun, artsy vibe, and it feels relaxed and welcoming. The staff was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. I dined in, and the service was quick, even though it was a little busy. I also noticed they have gluten-free crust options, which is great for people with dietary restrictions. Overall, I would definitely go back, especially if I'm in the mood for a flavorful vegetarian pizza with lots of cheese. read more

My family has always loved going to a Mellow Mushroom and we've never been disappointed in their food. Their oven roasted wings are a nice appetizer that my mom and I always share while my brother opts for the pretzel bites with the beer cheese. Our food always comes out hot and fast and there are a variety of gluten free and vegan options. The sizes there are what I would say good for the price, their small pizzas are usually big enough for me to have leftovers, and the medium pizzas are enough for me and my mom to share. My brother is vegan and he usually gets the veggie calzone and always likes it. Mellow's is a restaurant that we can suggest when we want to go out to eat that can fit all of our dietary needs. They have Tuesday night trivia that is fun to listen to and isn't too loud where we have to yell over. We also love the decor and how the servers are very personable no matter the location. read more

I've been hearing about this vegan friendly pizza shop for a few years but never journeyed over to 5 Points South because it always so congested. But I was able to swing through in the early afternoon and get a togo pie. The place is nice. It's what I expected as far as crowd demographic. Hipsters and indie rock playing in the background. Very clean place with a bar and TV's. I ordered a large White Rabbit which is a 16' veggie with white sauce and assortment of veg. It's a decent tasting pizza, not gourmet but good. I like how the crust is soft and semi filled with minced garlic. I will try them again and see what the Calzone is hollerin. read more

Came at 3:00 and there were two other tables in the place. We ordered three sandwiches at the table and waited 50 mins for our food. Same thing every time I've been here. It's worth the drive to go to the other one if you want mellow mushroom. Because the only consistent thing here is the bagged chips served with your meal. read more

Love this place. It's a favorite. But I'd be hard pressed to pick my favorite foods! You can't beat the fresh baked pizzas, the fresh salads, and fresh beer! Absolutely, freaking LOVE the Spicy Pretzel Bites!!! Oh. My. Goodness. read more

Highly recommend skipping this place. I don't even know where to begin. They ran out of silverware, skimped our salad of key ingredients, had a horrible fly problem (unbearable), took forever to bring very basic drinks, fully forgot appetizers. Two stars for the pizza because it was truly good. But I would *never* return and highly recommend you find somewhere else to eat. read more

Really would give this an extra half here cause it's more than a 3. Service was good, place was clean and chill. The food was okay, bland on the sauces and the garlic bread and pizza wasn't terrible. I'd go back, but won't be on a regular rotation for us. read more

The veggie lg pizza delivered without any add-ons was pretty tasteless. Couldn't taste garlic or paprika or onion. The olives weren't tasty. I tasted no tomato in the marinara sauce. I paid $39 delivered for a large, which is about three meals. Frozen pizza from Publix on sale is cheaper and tastier. I even doctored this up with garlic powder, salt, pepper, mozzarella, red pepper and it still didn't help. Mushrooms and olives weren't tasty at all. I guess you're forced to make it tasty by paying for extra garlic, meat, etc.. however it was delivered timely with DoorDash and they are generous with their toppings, although pretty tasteless. read more

PIZZA!! WINGS!! YAY!! What is better that pizza and wings? Pizza, wings, and a cool environment that's what. I have been a patron of this location for many years. It's such a nostalgic time every time I enter the space. The food is always good, the service impeccable, and good time had by all. This time I enjoyed the funky chicken (chicken, bar b cue sauce, caramelized onions, bacon, and two cheeses) on half and the other half was pineapple and ham. The pineapple and ham was SSSOOO GGGOOODDD!! read more

I love love love the pizza with everything on it. The veggies, crust, seasonings, and taste is delicious.

Mellow Mushroom has a FUN atmosphere with colorful art everywhere you look. I enjoyed a margarita pizza and a holiday cocktail and my vegan friends were very happy with their vegan pizza and a salad. Our server kept us updated as it did take awhile to get everything out but the quality of our pizzas was totally worth the wait. read more

I wrote a review of this exact location about a year ago, and it still is consistent. Everyone knows I adore consistency, and this place has not changed. The wait time for the food was a tad slower than last time, however, the food tasted the same-- delicious and hot! The spinach dip was still incredible, and the interior was also still clean. I did peek in the bathroom and was pleased to see it was pleasantly cleaned. I am thrilled to give the same review as I did last time, and I look forward to trying another burger or pie next. The theme is still the same--super trippy, hippie, and my style. It gives a very 80s vibe almost with the interior decorations. I really enjoy this place a lot and look forward to returning. read more

I got the Great White pizza and split it with my friend. Plenty of food to share, and it was very good! We went on a Sunday at about 7 pm, so it was moderately busy. The wait was decently long, longer than I thought was warranted by the amount of people there. The restaurant appeared clean and orderly but was a tad dark. Pretty good experience overall! read more

We were driving through looking for a place with vegan pizza. Was pleased to see they had several vegan options. After placing our order we got a call saying they were out of the vegan cheese, but per his recommendation, the vegan feta was better! We can confirm. It was delicious! If you're not a big sauce person, I'd probably say light sauce, but it was really good and we're grateful! My husband went inside to pick it up and he said everyone was very helpful and kind. Thank you MM! read more

First time trying Mellow Mushroom While walking to the restaurant I viewed the menu and the pie below stood out to me. Placed my order and waited. Philosopher's Pie Flavors that will blow your mind. With an olive oil and garlic base, all-natural grilled rib eye steak, portobello mushrooms, artichoke hearts, kalamata olives, provolone, feta and mozzarella cheeses. 320/370 cal | 400/450 cal | 420/480 cal The pie had all of my favorite things on it so I'm quite excited to try it. The pizza was definitely eye appealing. The portabellas are meaty like the steak so that was delicious. The brine on the artichoke and olives added a salt/flavor that was needed since the base is olive oil. I would have liked more steak. I had to search for it a bit but my other favorite veggies made up for its lack. Upon checking in on Yelp the app gave me free pretzel bites with a pizza purchase. Score!!!!!!!! The cashier also offered me a water while I waited. Definitely will be back even though this is my last week in my current position and I won't be in walking distance anymore read more

Stopped in for lunch today on our way back to Tennessee. It's also my very first visit to a Mellow Mushroom, and upon doing my Yelp check-in, I noticed that we received a free pretzel bites appetizer. Thanks!!! We ordered a pizza with everything on a thin crust. Everything on a thin crust is a bit messy, but well worth it if the food is hot, fresh, and delicious. We were happy with our selection. Our server was very slow. We sat on the patio and went either without drinks or food on our table more than 90% of the time. I would've been such an easy sale, if you just brought me a bar menu! Come on people---at this place I couldn't even use the restroom because their indoors were closed off. That really sucks when you're a paying customer and on the road traveling. read more

For those times you don't want Chicago style pizza, or you just can't make it to Tortuga's. Mellow Mushroom has you covered. Full disclosure, the crust was soggy and droopy in the middle. That's my fault. I violated the three topping rule (never order more than three toppings on your pizza). And to add insult to injury, one of the additional toppings was whole sliced tomato. The water from the tomato made the crust soggy. The weight of the extra toppings caused the sag. I would apologize . . . but the pizza was still pretty damn great!!! Overall the crust is well done, firm, and crisp. The bottom is dusted with ample cornmeal. The top is a gorgeous, bubbly brown. Ample sauce and hot, gooey, stringy cheese forms a comfy bed for fresh toppings. It's superb. My only complaint is that the mellow sauce is too mellow. Pizza should have a little kick whether it be the sauce or the toppings. Neither the pepperoni nor the sausage added any zest. To that point, my server was OK but not great. I asked for red pepper (to add some zest). She brought me parmesan. I also had to ask for plates and silverware. Again, the pizza was great so I could overlook some of these things. read more

For dinner, my friends and I decided to go to Mellow Mushroom. The ambiance gave off a very psychedelic vibe. They also had pictures of the Uab mascot which was a cute addition. While viewing the menu I noticed that they had vegan and gluten-free options, which was a plus. While I didn't choose a vegan option, I ordered a medium cheese,spinach, chicken and mushroom pizza. I really enjoyed the pizza.For the table I ordered spinach dip and cheese bread. The spinach dip was okay, I was lukewarm upon arrival. The cheese bread was very delicious. The service was very pleasant. My server was very nice and attentive. read more

Finally got around to trying this place after living just 5 minutes from it for over a year. Absolutely loved the environment, service, and food! I got the mighty meat pizza, which is not what I'd typically go for, but it pleasantly surprised me and was delicious (especially the crust). I went around 6 pm on a weekday, and it wasn't crowded at all, and service was quick. The restaurant itself was very clean and colorful, with lots of fun decor. I also love that they have vegan and vegetarian options so everyone can enjoy it. I'll definitely return to try some other menu items very soon. I am definitely intrigued by the calzones, which looked absolutely delicious. Definitely recommend! read more

Mellow Mushroom is by far one of my favorite pizza places. The pizza is always delicious, and the staff is always kind. The inside of the restaurant is full of interesting color and design, and they have recently received a new menu look, which is also so wonderfully decorated in what I consider a signature look for them. They deserve the 5 stars even with some minor criticisms, one being that it does get a touch pricey and the parking is not always the easiest. In all the times I have been to Mellow Mushroom, I don't think I have ever heard about any special deals or offers (maybe I'm not going on the right days), which I think could be a great way to increase revenue and traction. Parking is not as easy a fix as they are located in Five Points, so I just recommend going around 4:00/5:00pm on a weekday for your best shot at decent parking! read more

I was feeling a late dinner, my boyfriend and I thought it was a good idea to get Mellow Mushroom in Five Points for carry out. We ordered a large pizza and wanted it to be half cheese and half pepperoni. It took about 20 minutes for it to be ready and picked up for takeout. The workers were very friendly and I noticed the restaurant was fairly packed. As usual, finding parking in Five Points was difficult due to how many different options of places there are to eat in that area. I noticed there were not any COVID-19 protocols or precautions being practiced, but the tables within the restaurant had a decent amount of distance. When I got home and ate the pizza I noticed it was very warm and smelled delicious, but I got full within the first slice of pizza because the crust was extremely thick. Overall, I had a good experience and would go back. read more
