Pricey, but worth it lol. The food is exceptional and the service is always great. My family and I come here probably once a month or so for a fun family pizza date. The BBQ chicken pizza is incredible, and even my kids devour it. This place has a great atmosphere and is very casual. The booths are big and comfortable and they offer a decent kids menu and coloring stuff for the tikes. The salads are on point as well, although pricey. They offer gluten free options for you crazy people who can't eat delicious bread. I would have pictures for this review, but the food is always so good that I end up digging in before snapping a picture. It's certainly worth a try if you have never been. read more

Great place, perfect atmosphere. Can't beat the Happy Hour!!! Always a good time. The staff is fun, highly personable and very proficient. There are quite a few choices when it comes to HH but it's hard to beat the HH at MM. read more

My kids and I went in for pizza, cheese bread and wings. The bread came out with a hair baked into it (second piece from top on left). I alerted the server and she took it back and said she would order a new one. 10 minutes later our waiter brings out the identical bread only the hair had been take out! The burn marks were the same and the one piece that we had stared to pull off before we saw the hair was still slightly pulled off, Top left piece, just like in the picture. I get accidents happen. Hair in food, ok bring us a fresh one. Hell I would've even understood if they brought the same bread with the hair still in it and chalked it up to grabbing the wrong one but someone knowingly picked it out and chose to serve it to us again. Luckily I took a picture and showed them IT WAS THE IDENTICAL BREAD! So wrong, disgusting and shameful. Will NEVER step foot in another Mellow Mushroom again. read more

Mellow Mushroom Phoenix - Hair in 2nd piece from top on left. Knowingly brought back exact same bread with hair simply removed from it. - Pizza Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Today was a day that staff failed to remember customer service, stuck their dirty hand in the orange slices then proceeded to put it into my friend bare hand. Disgusting so will not be back again read more

Stopped in here over the weekend. Cannot tell you how many times I have passed this place and always wondered how it was. Daughter loves pizza so she was the deciding factor for lunch that day. Such a nice mellow vibe there. Staff was great! Our waiter very attentive. How many times have you had your wait staff take the straw wrappers from the table to "get them out of your way". Pizza was delicious. Crust so airy and delicious. Would definitely eat here again. read more

Great food and drinks. Great service too!We love the pizza dough. The salad is delicious. We also enjoy the calzones. Great experience every time. read more

We had no wait time, just walked right in and found a booth. Our waitress came up and explained how everything worked, as far as size and types and how they can split the pizzas so you can try more than one kind. We got our pizzas fairly quickly and they were so good! We got the Maui Wowie, cheese, pepperoni and green pepper, and the supreme. The pizzas were filling but were so tasty that we didn't want to stop eating. My son, who is an extremely picky eater had two slices. We got. Groupon for $20 worth of food for $10, so I would definitely recommend buying one on your way in. Great location, great customer service, and great food! We will be back! read more

I must've hit my head and had amnesia for a while as I clearly forgot how amazing Mellow Mushroom was. Why haven't I been here more often since it's just down the street from me? Not a clue -- amnesia is the only logical explanation. Met a friend here for happy hour the other night. I wasn't too hungry but grabbed a blueberry light brew something -- with the help of our amazing server's recommendation (quite delish!), and we ended up sharing an everything pizza, no olives (sorry, I didn't order it so I don't even know what Mellow Mushroom calls it). The pizza came out pretty quick and the moment it was set down on the table, my mouth started watering. This fresh-out-of-the-oven pizza looked absolutely picture perfect, like no joke (should've Instagrammed it, lol... I mean, if you eat a meal without posting it on Instagram, did you really even eat it?). I was thoroughly impressed with this picturesque pizza -- but did it taste as good as it looked?! Yes, yes it did. The crust was perfectly baked and a tad crispy but still had that 'sink-your-teeth-in' softness to it; perfect combo! There were also the perfect amount of toppings on it as well, not too overloaded to make the crust soggy or collapse in your hand, but not sparingly either... it was just right. Wowza! It was love at first bite; the flavors created a pizza party in my mouth! So yummy! My tastebuds and tummy were happy at the end of the night... and I had a slice leftover for lunch the next day. Score! ***Note to self: I need to go to Mellow Mushroom more often.*** read more

Always an amazing experience here! The food is yummy and fresh, always hot when served! The waiters and waitresses are ALWAYS there when you need something! Not to mention their menu is to die for, especially with not only a happy hour but a REVERSE happy hour on top of it!! A very short list comes to mind when asked says this restaurant could get better! AMAZING FOOD, SERVICE, AND VIBES! What more could anybody want?? read more

Love this place! It's in my neighborhood, and have been here many times. It's one of the few places in the area that is open late night, which is great! I have never had a bad meal here. My favorites are the Great White pizza, the bruschetta, and the meatballs, which are amazing. The service is excellent. One word of caution though, this is not a quiet restaurant, but worth the trip! read more

Service was good but the mushroom pizza, in the menu description, said drizzled with truffle sauce, this creamy truffle goop was loaded on the pie so thick it made the pizza taste horrible. We had no time to reorder so we just paid the bill, but I won't go back. The bartenders did make sure the beer was delivered promptly. Mellow Mushroom you are now forever stricken from my to go list. read more

Great pizza and wings. Awesome happy hours at half price for appetizers. Great atmosphere, open until 2:00 am. Amazing pizza and cheese bread also awesome! Wings is also good with many flavors. Will be back for sure. read more

I have been stopping at this place for years. Recently, I've have stopped going to Mellow. They've taken a lot of stuff off of the menu. Unfortunately, it was a lot of the gluten free options (hummus in particular). Trust me I would love to chow down on the meatballs, calzones, garlic bread and regular pizzas (they're delicious) but it would not render well for me. Prices are out of control, happy hour drinks have been reduced (only 16 oz available instead of 22 oz) as well as some of the items included in the happy hour menu. I understand inflation is killer right now. However, it's super expensive, there needs to be more gluten free options (maybe gluten free meatballs or garlic bread for example) and if you're going to take things off the menu, replace them with something else. That being said the bartenders here are all awesome which is the only reason this place is getting 2 stars from me. So if you want a quick drink, go in and support the bartenders and servers. Otherwise I would not recommend this place. read more

Me & 3 girlfriends went for drinks & dinner. We sat on the patio with my friends service dog. We got the dog settled on the chair where she was comfy. Then a hostess & a server came up asking if she was a service dog, we said she was. Then a manager came up & told us we could not have the dog on the patio & told us we needed to leave. We tried to explain she was a service dog, the manager told us she had to be on the floor. The other 2 workers said did not mention that was necessary. We had not gotten menus, drinks or even waters. The manger called the owner who said we needed to leave because my friend was getting upset about her service dog not being welcome. It was very unprofessional & I do not recommend anyone with a service animal to come here. We decided to take our business elsewhere, where service animals are welcome. We decided to go to Connolly's where they welcome service animals anywhere in their establishment. Needless to say I would not tell anyone I know to come here & I definitely will not be bringing my business there. read more

Went in to restaurant 415 non busy and 5 workers at the greater desk and by 425 we said on the way out thank you for not serving us. Several waiters looked at us seating there no response. Not a way to be on purpose. They said thank you on the way out. read more

Ordered appetizers and cheese bread was cold. They were out of Diet Coke so had to order Coke Zero. Waited 30 mins for food to come after appetizers came and our waiter never came back to our table to see if we needed refills. Once food came they told us that they were out of soup which I had ordered as my meal. It took them from the time I ordered to when the food to come out to tell me there was no soup left. I asked why it took so long to tell me since I would have changed my order and waiter snapped back that he also just found out like me. Didn't offer to make it right by offering anything else so i was left to watch everyone eat. Will not be coming back read more

The best pizza so far! My boyfriend and I just moved here from ND and we finally tried it. After getting my pizza wrong, they made me a new one and got half off out bill. The dough is to DIE for!! read more

One of my go to favorites. It is almost always easy and quick to be seated and the staff and food are great!! Would highly recommend for anyone who likes the pizza dine in experience!! read more

If you like frozen fried food this is the place for you. Mediocre at best. Will not eat there ever again.

Kara is the main reason our family goes here! She is amazing! Best customer service ever! The Parmesan Pretzels with BEER CHEESE is to die for! Mighty Meaty and Happy Hour are above reproach! You can't go wrong with good drink options and pizza and apps!!!!! If you are not a regular, you are sincerely missing out on a great life experience. 3-6 times a month our family eats here because of great food, great service, and great atmosphere! I also want to thank Mellow for thanking me for the review the same day I posted my review, it shows that they are taking feedback and implementing it! Lastly, I want to share that I was not compensated in any way or asked for a review, I did this solely out of the reason to inform other consumers. That being said, I wouldn't turn down a coupon lol, so if this earns me a discount, I would love it but again I already posted this and only adding to it to complement the leadership team for acknowledging my comment and responding in thanks within 1 hour. That is simply amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

The food was really good especially the twice baked hot wings. But the reason I'm taking the time to write this review is because our server was amazing. I've eaten here several times but this time Dresden our server made it an extraordinary experience. She made sure that all of my food would be safe for me dietary restrictions. I highly recommend you go visit this location and ask to be seated with her. I will definitely be back. read more

Great beer. Fresh beer on tap, which seems to be pretty rare for a lot of restaurants in Phoenix. Pizza is good. read more

Mellow Mushroom Phoenix - Beer and Pizza. Need I say more? - Pizza Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Love their pizza, beer and service, not their new prices. They had a huge price increase recently that has the price for a large pizza at $35 with tax and tip. It is pizza, not prime steak or lobster. CRAZY!!! read more

This place has the best buffalo chicken and funky q pizza. People are great here all the time

Ordered to-go the pizza was alright if a bit expensive and a little bit doughy. The to-go people were friendly and prompt.

Cosmic karma with bacon... just get it!!! I work close to this location and my coworkers and I enjoy coming here after work. As long as the happy hour continues we will be there. Only feedback is make sure you staff only high energy servers. It's a fun place to eat and some servers just don't seem like they want to be working. It's not every sever but some of them, if they don't have an upbeat attitude they really shouldn't being serving! It's a busy place so the servers need to grab an energy and be ready to work hard! read more

Placed a to go order online. Showed up when they said it would be ready. Waited for 5 minutes before someone even came to the front to ask if I'd been helped. He went to check and said it was coming out of the oven. Five minutes later another employee said it was almost out. Five minutes later she said again "just about ready." Five minutes later a manager came to say their "system crashed and they missed my order but they were putting it in the oven now." I don't know which one was lying, probably all three. When I finally got the pizza it was undercooked and gross. Great job Mellow Mushroom - maybe your team is taking your name too seriously read more

Our favorite place. We love the pizza dough to start and the toppings to choose from each time we go. I'm so thrilled we have a place to enough with our family. Plus they have amazing Thai chili wings and great draft beers. read more

Mellow mushroom is OK a great selection of dry fears but not the best food service is subpar not the best pizza place in town but nice for the price read more

Everything for the happy hour. The best happy hour prices anywhere, truly. 1/2 off the entire bar.. what? Half off appetizers... what? And they have an amazing beer selection.. WHAT?? If you haven't checked out mellow mushroom yet, you you're missing out. The bar gets really busy really quickly, but the service is decent. The Bruschetta is hard as a rock and it's the dish to order if you enjoy bleeding gums. Vibe is cool. Clean too. read more

Well. This is it, Mellow Mushroom. I am breaking up with you. For whatever reason, we just can't seem to hit it off. We started eating in the Happy Valley location but after a long string of back luck we decided to try the take out route. On one occasion eating in, our server went home after taking our order and never brought our food. On another, we waited over an hour after taking our order to get our pizza but when it arrived it was burnt to a crisp (and had the wrong toppings) on several occasions we were seated and it took 20 minutes for someone to even acknowledge us. Call it bad luck or whatever but dining in has never really worked out for whatever reason. Sigh, but now, "take out" isn't even "working out". We've had two incidents of driving to the restaurant at the time we were told to pick up our order and then we had to wait another 20 minutes because it wasn't ready. And on top of that our orders are consistently coming out wrong - and for the prices I'm paying, I deserve better. Originally, what I liked about Mellow Mushroom was that it was a little bit different than other pizza places. Unique pizza and sandwiches, sort of on the expensive side but a nice change of pace. Not outstanding but different. Generally, I have a problem with the service. I've probably visited this location about ten times (and as a former server myself) I have to admit, I've never been to a restaurant in recent memory where the staff is so unprepared or uninterested in what they're doing. From greeters who don't greet, to servers who disappear to food that arrives late (and often wrong) to getting the wrong check from a table of 8 (there were three of us at lunch) - we've just had so much bad luck with this place. Working in a restaurant for years, I know that things happen and I'm willing to forgive and forget. And for Mellow Mushroom, that doesn't seem to matter much. On the last incident where we got the wrong order, no one even apologized. I can forgive mediocre food if the service is excellent but after so many chances, the only consistency I've found here is frustration. I tried. I really tried. But we have to break up. I need to find someone who appreciates me as a customer. If you are interested in the gluten-free pizza or if you enjoy a nice selection of beers, Mellow Mushroom is probably a good option. But at this price range, there are a lot of better options close-by that are less frustrating. I really don't like leaving negative reviews (the last restaurant I wrote one for is now out of business) but I hope Mellow Mushroom can improve and give others a better experience. read more

I've eaten here twice now, the food and salads were great both times. Although at both trips the restaurant had probably less than 6 tables occupied, not large groups , 2-4 at each table. Pre lunch hours. Yesterday it was 45-50 minutes for a salad and two small pizzas. A lot of staff was present and it looked like a lot of kitchen crew was there. I wouldn't plan on a quick lunch if you're in a hurry read more

I love mellow. I eat from there allll the time and it never gets old!!! Yours guys menu is awesome and delicious. I love one of the managers Keith Correa he's awesome and is just great to have in the building when I decide to eat there. Service is not bad at all I usually get my food pretty fast. Food quality and how it comes out is good I get it what seems like fresh and right out the oven. I've never gotten my food cold or had any problems with my order. This place is awesome!!!!! (: read more

Returning after 6 years of being let down with meatball sub. It came out on white bread. We ordered the white pizza this time and the dough was like the pretzel bites. Sorry to say I will not be giving another try. Everyone's taste buds are different so please give it a try and make our own decision read more

This was our first experience going to this pizza place. Salads looked absolutely excellent with the group we were with. We shared a medium pizza which was $23 for 6 slices. That was the only flaw I found with the place. All food was delicious and take overs brought home. read more

This place has got it going on! Amazing appetizers and a great selection of draft beers! Friendly staff and nice music! This place is for sure a vibe! read more

I love this place! Being a beer lover, I was excited to hear that they carried close to 40 beers on tap. I knew I had to go check the place out, just due to that. We stopped by on a Saturday (and then again on Sunday) for beers & food. When I asked for a beer menu, the server told me that they pretty much no longer carry any of the crap domestics (Budweiser, Michelob, etc). +1! They have plenty of craft ales and lagers to choose from, so even a budwiper lover can find something good here. To the more seasoned beer veteran, there are a plethora of beers will statisfy your tastes. Everything from seasonal summer ales to stouts and everything else you can think of, from good breweries. They have a large selection of beers from Rogue, Stone, Abita, Left Hand, Four Peaks, Sonoran and many more. Nice to see them carrying the local stuff too. For starters, we've tried the chopped salad (sans pepperoni) and a parmesan garlic pretzels. Both were superb. The pretzels appear to be made out of pizza dough and they are oh so delish. For the main course, I've ordered up 2 different hoagies, both times with Tempeh. Vegetarians listen up! This place has you covered. They've got grilled Tempeh, jerk Tempeh, pesto Tempeh, BBQ Tempeh and Tofu as well. I've had the "tempeh hoagie" and the "jerk" hoagie with tempeh subbed in. Both were immensely enjoyed and quickly devoured. If you're a vegetarian that's missing a cheese-steak style meal, get your arse over to Mellow Mushroom and try out one of their tempeh hoagies. read more

We stopped at Mellow Mushroom this afternoon for late lunch/early dinner. The experience was overall very frustrating. The food was 3 stars, but the service was a one star. We waited about 10minutes to order, no big deal. Boyfriend created his own sandwich. I wanted pizza -- They let me know that they offer vegan options for pizza. Our server told me if I order the Mega Veggie pizza, they would just make it vegan for no extra cost (no butter on crust, no egg, sub daiya cheese for regular and add tofu). Awesome, right? We waited for FORTY FIVE minutes for our food -- and we were one of six tables out of at least 30 available. They were slow, yet our server never came by to apologize for the wait or let us know it'd be coming out any minute. We finally got our food. Boyfriend enjoyed his sandwich -- my pizza was pretty good. I loved that they use Daiya cheese and not some soy crap. We get our check -- his sandwich was $13 (french bread, avocado, salami, pesto mayo, caramelized onions, spring mix) - a little on the pricy side. He enjoyed it, but definitely said it wasn't worth the price. My 14" pizza was $19.50 + $3.99 for cheese. They added $4 for my 'vegan' cheese which I did not ask for (had I known, I would've just gotten veggies). I asked our server why this was... she gave me some attitude about how she's new and made a mistake. Didn't apologize -- didn't offer to take it off -- she even mentioned her manager knew she told me the wrong price. Her manager was aware and didn't come by. WHY NOT ASK ME IF I WANT TO PAY AN EXTRA $4 BEFORE PLACING THE ORDER WITH THE KITCHEN? No apologies, no discount and attitude on top of it. Super lame. That was not a $25 pizza. Food was okay, definitely not coming back and not recommending this to anyone. read more

Whenever I'm at the Norterra Shopping center, Mellow Mushroom beckons to me from across the parking lot. I don't typically have time to stop and eat, though. But, today was different. My wife and daughter were both home on my day off, so we went exploring! During our adventure, my wife mentioned that she was craving pizza. But, not basic delivery pizza...she wanted REAL pizza. This was my chance! I mean, we were already running errands up north, so this was the perfect opportunity to satisfy two cravings...my wife's for pizza, and mine for figuring out what all the buzz was surrounding this mysteriously named restaurant. The place is very quirky. It's got a few quasi-psychedelic pictures hung around the entrance. There are about half a dozen disco balls hung from the ceiling in the atrium as you wait to be seated. Among the disco balls, there's also a moon hung in the middle. On the moon, there are cool little trinkets, ranging from firefighters, policemen (both from the tops of trophies), and there's a network of telephone lines on poles spanning the moon. Very cool. Now, we didn't have to wait to be seated today...it was 1:00 in the afternoon on a Thursday...not exactly "prime time" by restaurant standards. My daughter wanted to sit outside, so we requested a patio seat. At first, the hostess told us that the front patio was reserved for a large party that would be coming in shortly. Then, she had an epiphany, and realized that there's another patio off behind the bar. Both patios have a misting system to help you stay cool during the blazing hot summers out here. Today, the misters were going, but they might not have been necessary. The way the building is positioned, both patios are completely shaded by 1:00 pm. It was exceptionally comfortable. Now, the menu is pretty cool. It offers up great pizzas, though they can be a bit pricey, ranging from around $12 for a small (10") pizza, to almost $30 for a large (16") pizza. There are several specialty pizzas from which to choose, or you can build your own. Now, since we got there during lunch, we got to use the lunch menu. Here, they offer a personal pizza (8") for $4.99! My wife got a plain pepperoni, and I got a bacon/jalapeno pizza. This personal pizza was perfect for us! The crust was nice and thick, and the ingredients were fresh and delicious! My daughter ordered from the kids' menu. She looked over her choices, and she opted for the French Bread Pizza with pepperoni and cheese. She could have chosen macaroni and cheese, but she was happy with her decision. An interesting side note...our personal pizzas were only $4.99...my daughter's meal was $5.50...go figure. So far, this sounds like a rave review, doesn't it? I mean, cool atmosphere, great food...in all honesty, the meal alone, in my opinion, earns this place 5 hand-tossed stars. But what about the service? Yeah...what ABOUT the service? I don't know what the circumstances were surrounding our completely shoddy service. Maybe the waitress was supposed to have gotten off right when we came in. Maybe she didn't like the prospect of waiting on a table with a child. I can't say for sure, because I never really talked to her. From the time the hostess seated us, we saw the waitress 4 times. She came out once we were seated, asked us what we wanted to drink, and left. She returned with the drinks, took our order, and left. After someone from the kitchen brought us our food, the waitress showed up to see if we were alright. Then she showed up at the end to bring us the check and a to-go box. If that last paragraph seemed curt, it's because I was trying to emulate the waitresses attitude. Also, notice how I refer to her as "the waitress". This girl didn't even introduce herself at the onset of the meal. So, like I said..the actual restaurant was a STRONG 5 stars. The indifferent and lackluster service earns a resounding 1 star. 5+1= 6 6/2= 3 Basic math lowers what would have been an awesome review down to the middle of the road at best. read more

I was at Happy Valley location last week for lunch. Casual atmosphere, not to bad of a service either. Then I checked my banking account and found out that I was overcharged! My bill was around $27 and change and I was charged $57 and change. I have used a $10 groupon and after that, my bill should have been $17 and change plus tip. Immediately, I called the restaurant, which was early in the morning. One of the employees who answered the phone claimed she was a manager and she is unable to help me; however, she will take all of my information and manager "Brian" will call me as soon as he gets in. 8:30PM, I am not receiving my call and I decide to call again. Employee puts me on hold for Brian "the manager". He pretty much tells me to wait out until Wednesday as they have been experiencing a lot of problems when groupon is used. Per him, everything should correct itself. He also said he would give me a call first thing Monday morning and its about 1:15PM and still no call. I am really disappointed on how this matter is being handled. I understand it is $30 and for the manager at Mallow Mushroom that may not be a lot but for me...It is. It makes me mad that he would not even have a courtesy to give me a call....What would happened if I never checked my statement? How many people were overcharged like this and never cut it? read more
