We were greeted warmly and seated right away. Started out with the Garlic Bites and beers. Beers made it to the table in 5-7 minutes? Not a long wait at all if you wash you hands after handling those very public, plastic coated menus. : ) Four easy servings of bites to be had in the full portion. Plenty of garlic and plenty of parmesan on the bites too. Came out in reasonable time and was too hot to eat when first put on the the table. The small red marinara sauce side is on the sweet side of the scale but not overly so. Holy Shiitake pie was really good. Lots of good things on them slices. I do frown a bit when there is over 2" of barren crust though. This pie had a couple 3" or so slices and well after the garlic bites, did not find any delight in more of the similar. All in all, Sonaiah did a great job too. Accurate, timely and "on the job" just right! My friends decided to split the bill in multiple stupid ways and made it somewhat complicated; in which she nailed it! read more

OMG. Mellow Mushroom is awesome, The food is Perfect with good prices! The prices here are abot the same as any other restaurant in lake county. The manager's and servers were completely firendly and kind. They checked to see how we are doing and even told us about all the specials they have to offer here, just a wonderful atmosphere. Would give it a 10 star if could!!! A special thanks to katie, Ashely and Whitney, YOU'll ROCK!! read more

The 3-1/2 star rating that the community has given them seems about right. We ordered from them once before and the mushroom pizza and Hawaiian pizza were both excellent, though a little on the expensive side as pizzas go. Last night, we had company over, so we ordered a Holy Shitake, Hawaiian, and Pepperoni pizza for delivery. The 3 large pizzas that arrived were only average. The "sauce line" started 2-1/2 inches from the crust's edge. The Hawaiian pizza had very little pineapple. The edge of the crust was thick and doughy. The underside of the pizza had a limp, saggy crust. There was not much sauce that had previously made them so good. Honestly, the pizzas that we received were not much better than the chains of lower-end mass-produced pizzas at half the price. The pizzas were not bad but they were not that great, either. I won't avoid Mellow Mushroom, but, next time, I will try out a different pizza place that has high yelp ratings. read more

We didn't get a picture of the pizza because it was gone in less than 10 minutes. Delicious! One of our favorite pizza places. We got half the house special and half the bbq. There was so much meat on the pizza I could only manage one slice. Definitely worth the $! read more

When delivery is the same price of a pie here, there is no question, you get dressed and go out. The bartenders are always so friendly, especially Tony, and the House special is delish! Still a fave! read more

Walked out after sitting for 15 mins with no service. Overheard the wait staff arguing over who was going to serve our table. This place has declined rapidly, menus are filthy and worn, items have been crossed out as discontinued with a marker, and place looks dirty. read more

Mellow Mushroom Mount Dora - Best server and bartender there shes awesome - Pizza Near Me - Mount Dora, Florida

Today, Saturday , March 6 , we walked in party of 2. The seating hostess informed us that there will be a 30 minute wait for lunch (11:45am) due to the fact that there was only one waitress. Being it's weekend, you would think that management would have made accommodations in getting extra waitress to help on a busy day. One waitress? Really. Disappointed. Last time we visited , we had to wait over 45 minutes to get the meal. Not returning! How many other customers who will not be back due to lack of staff. The . read more

Mellow mushroom is always a fun place to dine. Their apps are delicious (wings and caprese salad are my favorites). They also have gluten free Pizza that is delicious!!! I love that I can bring my puppy and sit out back on the deck and they even bring your puppy a water bowl! Such a fun experience for the entire family! read more

Tried the Holy Shiitake pie with mushrooms Excellent Try the pretzel bites with beer cheese YUM read more

This place is awesome! Ok... I will admit we come here often and I can recall a couple times that our order wasn't perfect. Yeah, that happens at restaurants sometimes. The difference here is that the management actually cares. Tonight my pizza was made wrong. The pie never even made it to the table but the Manager Katie did. Came over to the table sat down, told us what happened and took care of the issue. We all make mistakes from time to time. It's how you make it right. This team rarely gets it wrong but when they do they care anough to fix it. Thank you Katie! You and your team rock. read more

Restaurant is empty; hostess sat us with zero wait, I see at least seven unoccupied staff wandering around but nobody greets us or offers a drink. After ten minutes we walked out. Nobody noticed. Now, I see that similar Yelp reviews for this location are too numerous to count. Need a new manager at this location. read more

Still here on Friday night.. Music is great Food hot & fresh Sandy & Ashley very attentive Compliments read more

We've been waiting for this place to open now for a while, and were not disappointed. I'm a big fan of Mellow Mushroom pizza in general, and this location has not changed my mind on that. They have a great selection of pizzas, and the pretzels are amazing, particularly with the beer cheese (save the leftover cheese for your pizza crust). We were please to see that they offer dairy free cheese, as our son is allergic to dairy. Now we don't have to feel guilty about eating pizza in front of him :) The beer selection here is great, and they seem to be rotating the selection rather frequently to change things up. Service each time we have been has been good, and the food has been consistent. I would avoid the cinnamon pretzels, as other reviewers have noted, they need to figure out how to get more cinnamon and sugar on there, they are dry and flavorless. Parking here can be quite challenging, but there are other businesses that are closed after 5:00, and you can use their parking lots. Outdoor seating here is quite nice, as they have a wrap around deck, utilizing all the available space they have. We will definitely be coming back here often. read more

I have eaten here 3 previous times and loved it... They really fell the wagon tonight! First the silverware fork was so dirty it was impossible to miss the Big clump of food on the fork and then I was delivered a plate that had brown liquid.. The manager said probably someone spilled their drink on the plates. The manager sported a Mohawk and the line cooks looked very disheveled! Lost my appetite and will never come back. The board of health needs to check this place out!! read more

It has okay pizza. I am not a big fan. I Love the T-shirt's though. Some of the salads are good, but service is very slow. Felt like no one cares. read more

WILL NEVER VISIT A MELLOW MUSHROOM EVER AGAIN. Over prized pizza that isn't even good. Accidentally left my phone.. Got home tracked it to the restraint the manager refused that it was there... Turns out the bartender picked it up and was going to keep it. MANAGER did nothing. Couldn't care less.... Don't even want to give one star. read more

It was our first time there, which I mention to our server 2x and we never got 15% offf..we sat at the bar the food was really good the service I would give them C.. they have a lot of young kids working there which is okay I just think they should be a little bit more attentive and friendly to the guest .. we sat at the bar and she only checked on us twice.. there were two other couples at the bar seem to get a little bit more attention than us.. when we got our bill our server was Kat, she never gave us her name and that's my aka Kat read more

I ate at this location on February 12th. My husband and I ordered a medium crispy crust pizza. The Mellow brand has an awesome dough they use and somehow this location quit using it. Our pizza came out lukewarm at best and the bartender had to have the kitchen stick it back in the oven. The pizza had sat so long the dough was soggy. And we had asked for extra bacon of which the extra was placed on top of the already baked pie. We frequently visit this location. It was always a friendly place. It was always great to see the owner, Mike, while we were there. We've been told there is new management...... Such a shame. The moment we walked in the vibrancy of the place was gone along with the quality of the food. We won't be back. read more

Mellow Mushroom finally opens in Mount Dora! People must have been waiting a long time for this because a week after they opened early on a Thursday the place was PACKED. The wait to be seated was about 30 minutes and people were parking all over the grass, over curbs, etc. The staff working the front counter were never the less happy and friendly despite being slammed. Our server was nice but was very new. Not only to the location but she said it was her first week as a server, ever. I think her inexperience combined with the kitchen working out the bugs led to several dropped balls during our dinner. Even with these mistakes I would still give the place four stars overall because the food is that good. We started with the Pretzel app. The pretzels were perfectly cooked, nicely seasoned and served hot. The accompanying beer cheese sauce (an up-charge) didn't come out until we had already almost devoured the pretzels. The sauce is worth getting, BTW, it's delicious! We also ordered a Caesar salad which never showed up even though we asked about it repeatedly. Well, it actually did show up, at the very end of the meal. They ended up comping it and sending it with us to go. Unfortunately being already coated with dressing (we'd asked for the dressing on the side) it was soggy by the time we ate it. They had ran out of milk for the kids. The Holy Shitake pizza was fabulous. As soon as you take that first bite your mouth is flooded with flavor. The seasoned crust, garlic, mushrooms, cheese combine to make a rich, salty masterpiece. My only complaint was that the toppings stopped too far from the edge of the pie. We finished up with the brownie sundae which was not worth the calories. The brownie was barely warm and was a little hard on the edges. It was topped with ice cream and whipped cream which were both good. I think we'd opt for the cookie sundae instead next time. My son's kids cheese "pizza" was actually made not on pizza crust but on Italian bread. He didn't complain and ate the whole thing. They have a decent beer selection that rotates and some of which are from local breweries. Our new server had to read the list but was utterly unfamiliar with the brews. She then brought out the wrong beer by accident. The restaurant is LOUD and bright with funky sculptures and TVs everywhere. This is the perfect family option in Northwest Orange/Lake county and will probably be busy like this for quite a while. I know we'll be back! read more

We decided to give this place another chance and our appetizer, pretzels.... it came out very salty and somewhat burnt. Not exactly enjoyable. Our sodas came out really good so they earned another star. Whoo-hoo. Our pepperoni thin crust with black olives on one half side and other side pepperoni only for kids. It came out odd. Too much tomato sauce. Pepperoni tasted off like if its not properly cooked. Pizza was cooked right but its like if they cooked it then added pepperoni and mushrooms and black olives before deliver it to our table. read more

Mellow Mushroom is the only pizza I eat anymore. The House pizza here was good. Our server totally sucked. Her tip reflected it. You would think that if you are getting low tips, you might want to change your attitude. read more

Finally, some decent pizza in Lake County! Tons of choices, good service, interesting beer menu. A small pie will run you about $12, but you get what you pay for, and this pizza is worth it! Gluten-free crust is great, and gf pizzas get prepared in a separate area, so there's a lessened chance of cross contamination. It's nice to be able to go out with my gf friends and not have to worry. read more

Very slow. But not as crowded as Winter Park. Ordered a half and half pizza. Half was cooked more and when the pizza came out one half was smaller then the other. And they cut it that way like I wouldn't notice. Bad form MM... read more

On our second visit, the food was very good but the service and front house staff were unbelievably incompetent. If some management was applied, it could be a really great place. Several things were really awful, but the server was the worse. Completely acted as if we were putting her out. Sorry but the best of food cant mask a flat out bad attitude. From the hostess to the busboy, they need help. We will not go back. read more

Good food, a little pricy, but not by that much. Pizza, great sandwiches, etc. We had a good time, service was very good. I'm not sure it's somewhere you would go to all the time, but for a change I think it's a different place for pizza that has a good selection of other food in case the whole group doesn't want pizza. They are a chain, but they don't dot the landscape like McD's, Pizza Hut, etc. read more

I wrote in my last review that Mellow Mushroom "never let's me down". But....they have let me down no matter how many optimistic tries I give them. In short one of our 2 pizzas was burnt on the bottom(as a Florida gal I know there is nothing worse than a burned bottom!) And the other was made incorrectly. It was DEAD 7pm on a Saturday night and still we waited 45 min for our pies! Service was slooowww. Bright spark in the evening was they were so sweet to our puppy and brought him cold water to lap up. So sad about my Mellow Mushroom in Mt Dora... read more

This place is awesome! It's clean, spacious, with high ceilings and decorated and designed in a fun, vibrant way. The bar is very nice and the booths are cozy. There are big windows throughout the place that let lots of natural light in. I ordered the Holy Shiitake pizza with gluten free crust and vegan cheese, and it was excellent! Will definitely be back. read more

Mellow Mushroom Mount Dora - Holy shiitake pie - Pizza Near Me - Mount Dora, Florida

First time here. It was a Sunday afternoon and not real busy. Got seated right away but the server hovered too much, which was annoying. We both ordered half sandwiches and waited and waited - asked the server how long and he admitted he forgot to put the order in right away and it should be out shortly. Manager, Nick, made it right and the sandwiches ended up being very delicious, though they came with no sides - no chips or anything. So - food was delicious tho expensive; service was horrible and Manager was awesome. read more

Wanted to really like this place. Our waitress was great and informative and very helpful. We ended up getting a large pizza. Half a breakfast pizza and half a Jamaican pineapple pizza. Crust was great but there was nothing breakfast about the half we ordered. No egg and very skimpy on all the items. All dough and not a lot of toppings at all. The pineapple side was better but still a pretty skimpy. For the price we paid for this pizza, go big on the toppings! Just missed the mark for us on the price and the toppings. read more

I'm giving it 3 stars because the food was delicious and the staff was friendly. However, service was sloooooooow. We waited 5 minutes before we were greeted at the hostess stand and there were people in front and behind us. A waitress finally came up to greet us and sat us. There was no hostess in sight. Food service was also slow, as well as, the wait for a manager to fix an item on the bill. Definitely not a good place to have lunch on your work break. We ordered the $2 slices and they took an above average time getting out. Bar service was quick though and everyone was friendly. read more

Finally got to try this new place, and overall I'm not impressed. The building itself & decor is very nice and hip, especially for this area. We picked up a large meat lovers pizza for takeout and while quality ingredients are used here, our pizza was very burnt on the bottom. Normally I would bring this kind of thing to the attention of the manager, but we were very busy that night and just didn't have the time. Also, their prices are very much on the high side of the spectrum, and I doubt we will return anytime soon. read more
