Amazing experience was had at this location! We got here on a saturday night (after a yep event) and were hoping they would take our order. They happily took our order but sadly only for take out. So we pkaced an ordere for the veggie pizza and it was super amazing!! The size, the flavor and the crisp crust was absolutely awesome. We stood outside by the iutsoor tables to finish our pizza and had a blast. Was kinda surprised at how good it was to be honest!! We absolutely LOVED IT

Went for a family going away meal. Nice sized location, street parking. Multiple different areas to sit and a nice bar section. The menu had a nice variety of options. I chose a small great white pizza and my son got steak and cheese hoagie . Both were delicious.

I can't speak for the atmosphere or service as we got takeout, but the food was incredible! I got the great white pizza and had a slice of the pepperoni/hot honey/ricotta pizza someone else had and it was phenomenal! The great white had a nice tang from the roasted tomatoes and I loved how much sweetness came through on the hot honey pizza. The only thing missing was their wings because I love those from Mellow as well. This experience, like all of our others, didn't disappoint!

Loved that there are multiple veggie options, they even allow half half pizzas to try different combos. Pizza was fresh and flavors were great The restaurant is loud but energetic. We brought our infant and she did wonderfully in the space. Our waiter checked on us multiple times and was great overall. Will def be back!

We went to Mellow Mushroom with a large work group, and everything was fantastic. The staff handled our big party smoothly -- service was quick, friendly, and well-organized. The chicken wings were perfectly cooked and flavorful, and the basil tomato pizza was fresh, cheesy, and packed with great taste. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food, and the relaxed atmosphere made it an easy place to unwind after work. Definitely a spot I'd recommend for both group outings and casual dinners.

Totally jealous I don't have a Mellow Mushroom near my home in Miami, FL. This place is a trippy, dope vibe with a large variety of pizzas (and more). My pizza was delicious!

Had a very positive experience dining at Mellow Mushroom when our son visited. When we ordered he told the server he had a gluten allergy, to which the server replied, "thank you so much for letting me know." The restaurant offers a gluten free crust and there are several pre-selected topping combos from the menu (Kosmic Karma, for example) that can be prepared "certified gluten free." Or, you can choose from their list of gluten free toppings and build your own pizza. On their website they note that they use gloves, aprons and a special prep area for their gluten free offerings. Much appreciated! Our son ordered the Mighty Meaty and found it to be quite tasty. I ordered a holiday drink, the Merry Mule, which included cranberry syrup, house made lime syrup, and Captain Morgan Spiced Rum, and it was festive and delicious. My Great White Pizza was tasty along with the smaller size Enlightened Spinach Salad. My husband got a calzone, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Great food and service, no complaints. We were hungry so only got a pic of my drink! Cheers!

We've talked about visiting Mellow Mushroom for a while now. Since my wife and I were both off work for the Labor Day weekend, we decided to chose a restaurant in downtown Winston. We found street parking in the area and were actually initially headed to another restaurant/bar. We approached the intersection where Mellow Mushroom is located and decided to stop in. The interior decor and feel reminds us a lot of Kaleidoscope Pizzeria & Pub in Medford, Oregon, which we absolutely love and haven't been to in several years. Kaleidoscope has a Grateful Dead theme which also includes a lot of tie dye. The interior of Mellow Mushroom is similar in many ways and is fun and welcoming. We were seated promptly, provided menus and offered drinks. As we perused the menu and did some research we were surprised to learn they were founded in 1974 in Atlanta, and have approximately 200 locations throughout the US, primarily in the Southeast. Our server brought our drinks and we asked him for his recommendations and inquired about the size of the pizza's. He was friendly and helpful and gave us a few more minutes to make our selections. Upon his return, we placed our orders. My wife was being good and decided to try one of their salads. I knew I had to try one of their pizza's and was debating between the 10 inch and the 14 inch because I was confident that I wanted to have leftovers. In the end, my wife chose the Enlightened Spinach Salad with grilled chicken and I ordered the 10 inch Mighty Meaty with extra sauce. My wife used the restroom while we waited and confirmed that it was clean and well stocked. Our meals arrived in a timely fashion and looked incredible. We were very impressed. We both enjoyed the experience and food. We kept commenting about the similarities to Kaleidoscope. We also liked the street side of their dining area which allows the doors to open to the sidewalk area and provides an outdoor sidewalk dining experience along 4th Street. It was a good experience, however, I am a pizza connoisseur and although this was good pizza, I would not consider it great. However, we saw other items such as the calzone and various sandwiches and they looked delicious. My wife also really enjoyed her salad and we want to come back and try additional items on the menu, we would also like to visit some of their other locations as well.

Guinness.
Peter M.

Very cool spot downtown, with seriously fun vibes, good food, great drinks & service, and awesome artwork on the walls. Had a Guinness, a small great white, 4/20 pizza bites (w/beer cheese) & a medium chicken Q (BBQ pizza). Crust was awesome. Highly recommended. (Guinness is over chilled, but 'tiz a minor flaw.)

Chelsea R.

I love some mellow mushroom pizza. Honestly their apps and sandwiches are always delicious as well.

Jacquelyn D.

LOVE the theme here, and my favorite pizza is, you guessed it, MUSHROOM! Enjoy coming here on busy nights, feels like a college town hangout somehow and keeps me young!

Small Greek salad and cheese pizza
Elisabeth M.

Food was more than decent - I had a half salad that was fresh and tasty with decent dressing and lots of veggies. I also got a small cheese pizza which I took home half home. Tasted best when hot. Not any identifiable type of pizza but good. Not much is open downtown on Mondays so a good option on a Monday night

James Beard semifinalist. Ranked top 50 in the USA for numerous years and #18 in 2025 ("50 Top…read morePizza USA" rankings). Let me repeat...#18 in the thousands and thousands of pizza joints across the country. And right here in our very own Triad area! Super cozy interior with an exquisite Italian style pizza oven, great mood lighting and a wonderful bar top right by where the main pizza makers are doing their thing. But let's get to the food. I say this and I do not say it lightly...THE BEST NEAPOLITAN STYLE PIZZA I'VE HAD IN YEARS. This place isn't your typical neighborhood pizza joint. It's in a league of it's own compared to those, especially when it comes to Neapolitan style pizzas. First, the arancini app was superb. Crispy and hot on the outside, with soft rice and oozing cheese in the middle, cradled on the plate by an amazing homemade marinara sauce. And the main event, a mushroom pizza. The dough is one of the best I've had, light and fluffy, and baked to perfection. Chef Peyton is an artist and the pizza dough is his canvas. All the main ingredients (the cheese, dough and sauce) are all in the true Neapolitan form. And the toppings aren't your typical grocery store level stuff. The mushrooms were a medley of oyster and trumpet mushrooms, locally sourced from Heritage Harvest Farm. And these don't just get thrown on raw and the whole pizza baked...oh no. Chef Peyton prepares them prior in a skillet which get put in the pizza oven to roast and pre-bake. You can taste the difference here. And I was told that many of the ingredients are locally sourced, fresh and farm to table. Pure perfection from crust to crust, end to end, top to bottom. Let's talk about the price and put it in perspective. Sure, it's a little more pricy than your local pizza shop down the street. But the high value you're getting here absolutely validates the pricing. The fresh farm to table ingredients and the meticulously made pizzas are on another level. And honestly, I've had more expensive Italian food and pizza, and many of them don't come close when comparing apples to apples. It's 100% worth it. I'm a pizza lover, fan and addict. This ranks in the top 3, if not higher, pizza experiences I've had throughout the decades. I can't wait to go back and try their "Pizzakase", an omakase style Italian tasting experience. If you love pizza, Italian food, or just experiencing something truly delicious, you need to come and try it. This will be our go to "pizza experience" spot for years to come.

The customer service was great everyone was friendly, welcoming, and laid-back, which made for a great experience. This was honestly one of the best slices of pizza I've had in a while! The crust wasn't too thick or too thin, it was just right. Everything was incredibly fresh and served piping hot, and my pizza came out in about seven minutes after ordering. I'm not sure if they season or marinate the spinach, but it was absolutely delicious and added so much flavor! The prices are very reasonable and affordable, especially for the quality of the food. I'll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend!

Unfortunately, the new staff could use some improvement. They used to have a very pleasant young lady working the register, but the current employees have made the experience much less enjoyable. I'm not sure if the young man and young woman working there now are the owner's kids helping out for the summer, but if they are, they need more customer service training. The young man, in particular, always seems to have an attitude and often cuts customers off while they're speaking. During my last visit, he nearly dropped my bag of food while handing it through the drive-thru window. I tried to ask for ketchup when he slammed the window when he reopened after I knocked on I ordered three meals with fries, and he came back with only two ketchup packets. The food is definitely worth trying, but be prepared for customer service that can make you feel like they're doing you a favor.

Sometimes we open Yelp and decide to go to some places just because we've never heard of it before…read moreand the reviews are awesome. Vinnie's Pizzeria was that for us today. When we want pizza, I'm looking for authentic New York style or some brick oven baked charred crust. Vinnie's isn't either of these but it had great reviews from fellow yelpers so of course we needed to see it for ourselves. It was pretty crowded when we arrived but we didn't have to wait long before we were seated. Dominique our Server helped us decide what to order. She was awesome and fun and we could tell she loved her job and the food there. I love that! She highly recommended the garlic knots so we started with those. My husband got Chicken Marsala on Dominique's recommendation. I ordered Chicken Cannelloni. The portions are very generous and I ended up taking some home for a nice treat later. Everything we had was delicious and now I want to go back and try the pizza.

A surprizingly small eatery, has a separate dining area with booths and some tables. Our server was professional and kind, we ordered our drinks and a start with their version of Bruschetta. This was an excellent start for our evening there. A beautiful presentation of five pieces, nicely toasted with paper thin prosciutto de parma, fresh mozzarella, chopped tomato, capers and balsamic reduction drizzle. Delicious, rich, crunchy, sweet, savory and full flavored. I went for the Parmigiana with chicken, served over angel hair with a rich tomato sauce. A hearty meal, the chicken cutlet was breaded nicely, and pounded thin, cooked very well. The pasta underneath cooked al dante, and it all smoothered in a rich maranara. We also tried the Mediterranean pizza, a 12" and it was huge. A well made pie, loaded with ingredients. The combination of fresh pesto with the mushrooms, olives, banana peppers, roasted red peppers and feta was a solid choice. Along with a cold draft Stella it made for an very good meal. 4 Stars a solid choice for a good meal 01242

Always on the quest to try new things, this was our lunch time stop once day while out and about. It was a beautiful sunny day, and I appreciated that there were outside seating options. There were both exposed and shaded areas, plus plenty of indoor seating. The whole thing their brand revolves around is a large wood-fired oven, and you can see this prominently when you walk in the door. The subtle smoky smell really adds to the atmosphere and makes you hungry right away. We came during lunch time, so we took advance of their lunch specials, where you get a half serving of a pizza plus another item (we both opted for wings as the other item.) I opted for the 4X4 pizza (4 meats) and the Garlic Rosemary wings, while my wife got the Bronx Bomber pizza and buffalo wings. On both sides, the wings were delicious in an unexpected way, grilled but with a nice char, and full of meat. The seasonings on both were just right, and I didn't even bother dipping mine in any dressing. The 4x4 pizza was quite greasy, with oil dripping off when you pick it up. I used a bunch of napkins to blot what I could off, but the amount of grease got in the way of enjoying the flavor. To be fair, it is on an olive oil base, but when you combine that with all the intrinsic fat of the processed meats, it was too much. The Bronx Bomber, however, was much better. With spicy Italian sausage, prosciutto, mozzarella, Gorgonzola, and topped with fresh oregano, it was flavorful but balanced, and good to the last bite. The server we had, who's name escapes me, was very friendly, attentive, and made helpful suggestions. I'd certainly come back here another day for lunch, though I would pass on the 4x4 Pizza next time.
