Stopped in for one of their lunch special where and it's still a great deal! I enjoyed a club sandwich and it was freshly prepared. The side of fries that came with it were nice and crispy! . My friend enjoyed their burger and thought it was nice and juicy. Service was excellent! It's not overly fancy inside, sort of a hometown place and atmosphere. Will be back! .

Round pizza made into a square. Real Sicilian is crust, cheese, sauce.  This is crust, sauce cheese.

I read that here was the best Sicilian pizza in Williamsburg VA - as good as Spumoni Gardens in Brooklyn. Well, I'm from Brooklyn & went to high school a couple of blocks from Spumoni Gardens. I ate their Sicilian, or "square" as we called it, for decades. The product from Larry's is not Sicilian pizza at all. The hallmark of Sicilian pizza is that the cheese is on the crust & covered with sauce - opposite of the round variety. Additionally, Sicilian pizza has a thick crust & it's baked in the pizza oven in a black iron pan. It's the granddad of 'deep dish'. Sicilian is thick, stiff, non-folding, and a bubbling good time where the cheese is completely melted & adheres well to the cooked base crust. Larry's takes a round pizza & simply makes it square. They do not bake it properly making the 4 center pieces, trash. Complete soup in the middle. So it's not Sicilian & 1/4 is garbage. This is not to say that it's not the best Sicilian in Williamsburg. I kept & ate their 12 pieces on the edge whereas I've thrown out entire pies I've bought in this pathetic pizza town. The crust tastes ok. That's better right there. The sauce is good. The cheese should be melted so I can't really say the quality, as lower quality cheeses leach oil onto the pizza instead of evenly melting. My pizza still had individual nodules of cheese. I will not be patronizing Larry's again.

This is one of our favorite places to eat here in the Burg. It's close to our home and the food is awesome

It's a big noticeable difference from the way this place used to be. And I gave it 2 more fair chances to make sure they weren't just having an "off" day. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. I didn't have the heart to give them a 1 STAR - after all my previous 4 star reviews. But Sal's, you've now been dropped from our short list of Williamsburg go-to's and that's a sad commentary. I hope this place can get their act together and (significantly) improve the quality of their food - they've been an OG in Williamsburg going way back and with this wonky economy and rising prices, I suspect that's what's affected this place. But imo the best way to keep loyal customers coming back is to MAINTAIN AND KEEP THE QUALITY HIGH even if you have to charge a bit more. But don't lower your standards, skimp on portion sizes AND raise prices lol. I'll keep an eye out and hope to read about improvements to maybe try again another time down the road.

My two brother in laws gave her a run for the money and she didn't miss a step. I enjoyed watching the show. Lunch fare was typical bistro style food, but they made it delicious. We started with homemade chips for the table and we got down to ordering. I had the Waygu burger and my wife had the salmon burger. Both were overly generous in size, quite filling, and reasonably priced. I really didn't see what the rest of the family had due to my place at the end of the table, but everyone seemed to enjoy their meals. We ended with each couple sharing a large warm fresh baked cookie. I'm looking forward to them opening a location closer to St. Louis!

The ambiance was very nice and way larger than I anticipated. I was nervous for a wait but although it was very crowded for a Tuesday there is ample seating. The food was really good. We had onion rings, sticky ribs, meatloaf, peach flatbread, and and kids burgers and pizza. The ribs were outstanding! So happy I threw them in the order last minute. Meatloaf was good and the flatbread was quite delicious. Kids enjoyed their food as well. Onion rings as well, can't go wrong. All in all a great meal at a nice looking restaurant and will definitely recommend it to others!

She made recommendations and was so attentive and funny. Hubby was between 3 different meals but went with the Hanger steak special. It came with a potato knish, perfectly cooked asparagus, in a burblanque sauce. He said it was one of the best meals he ever had and it was cooked medium rare as he requested. He also had a perfect manhattan. I wasn't super hungry, so I went for the salmon poor boy. It was crunchy and delicious and the sauce was perfect. I had a Saint Germain spritzer which was light and refreshing. We couldn't leave without ordering beignets. They came with a chocolate and a vanilla sauces. Hubby got a coffee that came in a fun cup.

Starting with the service, the staff were attentive and welcoming. Unfortunately, the food was underwhelming. While portion sizes were reasonable, several dishes lacked the creativity and seasoning needed to stand out. The mussels and French onion soup were highlights, but the escargot and rotisserie chicken were only average. For dessert, the Gateau Breton is fantastic and a standout! However, I would skip the beignets if you are expecting the traditional version. These are smaller with the consistency of a donut hole, and lack the light, pillowy texture typically associated with classic beignets.

First time customer to the Mellow Mushroom. While the restaurant was busy, we were promptly…read moreseated. Our waiter was attentive. The food was good. I had a calzone and my daughter had a thin crust pizza. Both were very good.

This was quite possibly the worst pizza I have ever ordered…read more The crust was thin, soggy, and completely lifeless. The cheese was essentially flavorless. But those were somehow not even the worst parts. Let's talk about the garlic. They used jarlic. Not fresh garlic. Jarlic. The wet, pre-minced stuff sitting in a jar of acid and preservatives. And you could absolutely taste it. It tasted less like garlic and more like someone poured citric acid over the pizza. That sour, metallic, preserved-garlic taste was everywhere. If your kitchen can make pizza but cannot be bothered to chop a clove of garlic, that tells me pretty much everything I need to know about the food. And then there was the spinach. I paid EXTRA for spinach. They put ONE piece of spinach on each slice. Literally. One. I actually had to look at the pizza for a moment because I couldn't believe someone had intentionally prepared it that way and then sent it out the door. One lonely piece of spinach per slice isn't a topping. It's evidence that spinach was once in the building. Charging extra for that is absurd. So, to recap: soggy crust, tasteless cheese, garlic from a jar that tasted like citric acid, and a paid spinach topping rationed out one leaf at a time. This wasn't mediocre pizza. Mediocre would have been an improvement. This was remarkably bad. The person who took my order was pleasant, knowledgeable, and helpful. That is the entirety of the positive feedback I have. I would not order this again if it were free. Never again
