We love Mellow Mushrooms food! While in our hometown we got the New Nirvana Chicken Dip! It was delicious and we thought it was better than the Pigeon Forge island location! We also got the New Super pepperoni pizza and the House Special pizza to share! Wow that Super pepperoni pizza is the bomb!!!! Service at the Asheville location is top notch always! The decor is the best I ever seen in any Mellow Mushroom so it's a fun chill spot for hanging drinking beer and eating pizza with friends!!!

YUMMY CRUST! While it's a chain restaurant, I've always loved the crust at Mellow Mushroom! This location in Asheville did a great job supporting the local community during the aftermath of hurricane Helene. That alone gives it extra stars in my book. I went again recently to support them while they still have a limited menu (due to water supply issues in town) and the pizza was still absolutely delicious!!! Come support this awesome location, nestled downtown with a cute patio.

Kosmic Karma GF (w/ vegan cheese and ribeye)
Luca D.

I got this again for my father's birthday and this time it was to go. It was a GF Kosmic Karma (consisting of red sauce, feta, basil leaves, sliced tomatoes and a basil pesto swirl) with vegan cheese instead of mozzarella and shaved ribeye. Service and ambiance was appreciated because I didn't have to wait too long for it when I showed up. The flavors worked well together, but the crust was thin and not that crispy, and the cheese in the center was not melted because the toppings were pretty piled up. Overall, though, an enjoyable pie.

Menu as of 14 July 2025

This is the 2nd time my family and I stopped here to eat as the last time was about 3 years ago while visiting family in NC. Customer service here, just like 3 year's ago was great. Our waitress was friendly and prompt and our food options were delicious. Highly recommend adding this as a stop for good eats!!

It's been a few years since I've been here. Daughter graduated a couple of years ago. Food was good and the service was okay. Prices have gone up a lot. $18.00 for a small (4 slice) pizza is crazy. It was crowded, but there were several open tables and the wait time was minimal.

Holiday adult beverages
Christy D.

Serve was cool (filo) and knew the menu well. The mushroom pizza with temph was perfect for me (being vegan) My husband enjoyed the wings. We had two holiday drinks that were on point!

First time eating at this joint. This would have been a 5 star but my son got a sweet tea and switch to a soda and we got charged for both. This was a first especially since they cost the same and both had free refills. Everything ordered was delicious. They did have gluten free options which is nice. The specialty drinks were good and the different beer options. We sat outside and loved the vibe. Would definitely recommend.

Inside seating

Perfect as usual. Love the pizza and spinach dip. Was pretty busy for a Monday night in February. Keylan the server was awesome. Will be back again.

Love the art

Awesome place and excellent food. Great location and close to everything. If you're looking for the best service in town, ask for Sophia (she also goes by Fia when she's feelin sassy). Highly recommend this place to my friends and we are excited to visit again.

Medium Holy Shiitake pizza
Matthew G.

The Holy Shiitake pizza (olive oil and garlic base, shaved cheese and 3 types of mushrooms, on whole wheat crust) is excellent, though the pizzas are a little pricey. Decent selection of brews.

Carson K.

Food was amazing. Honestly the best place in North Carolina area. I personally ordered the steak and cheese calzone it was so good. Our wateriest was the best. Restart was very well managed it was very busy and we only had to wait 5 minutes

Buffalo Chicken Pizza  with ranch swirl
Kendall G.

The pizza is very good and the portion size is great. We both got the size small and it's 4 large pizza slices on a plate. The servers are pretty friends. The atmosphere is beautiful outside and inside. There is nice music playing, but It's not overwhelmingly loud which is good.

Chloe F.

Mellow Mushroom has been on my list for years. It was one of the first pizza places I remembered seeing vegan cheese at, but hadn't been able to try it until now. Surprisingly it actually held up to what I had built it in my head. This location was pretty fun inside, decorated it murals and neon art. Unfortunately, our server seemed to be having a bad day, but would definitely go again.

We absolutely loved this meal and it definitely makes sense why Soprana is recommended by the…read moreMichelin guide. We came here on a Saturday for dinner and were able to get seated at the bar right away. It is first come first serve at the bar, and there's over 12 seats at the bar. Reservations were completely booked up so no tables were available until 9:30 pm. My one complaint would be they told us no tables were available, but they left at least 4 tables completely empty for over 30 min and wouldn't let other people sit at them. They said it was for reservations who had ended up canceling because of the bad rainy weather that night. People were turned away at the door when tables were available. We ended up loving sitting at the bar because we got to chat with the bartenders and see the chefs make the pizzas. The crust for the pizza is literally perfect. The chewiest pizza I've ever had. I usually leave the pizza crust but I ate all of mine this time. My partner and I shared a focaccia with whipped ricotta for an appetizer. And we got two pizzas, one red sauce and one white sauce. The meatball pizza was absolutely delicious with the red chili flakes that are provided. And the artichoke pizza balanced well with the fresh arugula and pesto sauce. I would highly recommend coming here and trying to get a reservation. If you can't you can wait to sit at the bar or order to-go.

Luckily they did turn off the fans which made it a little bit better! They did not have a ton of vegan/vegetarian options that I could eat so I ended up trying one of the salads (no meat or cheese). The flavor wasn't my favorite so I didn't even up eating much and definitely left hungry. Our fault for not looking into the menu better (and I definitely couldn't eat a whole pizza by myself). My companions really enjoyed their meals and had multiple pizzas, apps, and drinks. Still a good restaurant with really nice views, so would still recommend for those looking for a good Italian meal!

The salad was big - mostly chopped lettuce (love that it was chopped already) topped with some cheese, olives, green peppers and tomato slices. I don't eat my salads soaked in dressing so there was enough dressing for me but it felt like the dressing cup wasn't very full if you do like a wet salad. Breadsticks were good and airy. Lots of cheese on top. I preferred the pizza over the breadsticks over the 2 visits I had 3 types of slices. For speciality slices they top a slice of cheese with the toppings then bake it so the toppings aren't baked down into the cheese. Still good. When I lived here years ago, we used this spot as a quick bite when we were out brewery hopping or pre gaming for a show. Huge inside with plenty of seating and some games. Staff is friendly and service is quick!

The salad was a nice sized and covered in mozzarella cheese, honestly it could have had a little less cheese on it but each their own. The breadsticks, i thought were garli but its juat dough served with marinara sauce. The slice lacked flavor al together. Service, i waited at the counter for about 5 minutes before someone was off the phone and took my order. Food came pretty quickly, the guy behind the counter one of the guys was wearing a tank top, honestly that should not be allowed for health reasons. Maybe after a few beers things would taste different but like i said before each their own.

The sister restaurant to Winston-Salem's acclaimed Mission Pizza Napoletana, Mission Pizza…read moreAsheville (aka Mission Pizza Romana) is decidedly not your typical neighborhood slice shop. The Roman squares are made of a thick dough that looks like focaccia but is both lighter and crispier. They come in single 5" by 7" rectangles (spuntino, $8-$10), 5" by 13" pies (mezzo, $15-$19), or 9" x 13" party size portions (tutto, $30-$38). While you can build your own custom pizza, the default options include a Calabrian with pepper jam, a funghi & charred tomato, a sfincione with breadcrumb topping, a patate with potato cream, and a rotating special. A few dips, an arugula salad, cauliflower cacio pepe, and meatballs are also available. Wanting a few slices to commemorate Pi Day, my wife and I shared a Calabrian, a funghi & charred tomato, and a daily special. Ordering was easy, and Terra Nova's "green industrial" vibe (check out that moss wall) made for interesting ambiance. Our pizza was not cheap, but it was very satisfying, and Mission uses high-quality ingredients. The Calabrian offered a good combination of sweet and spicy while the funghi & charred tomato delivered creamy (ricotta) and smoky. The crust was done perfectly: crisp without being overly charred. There are many places in Asheville where you can grab a pizza and a beer, but none can offer you the same experience that Mission does. Unless you're a New York-style pizza purist, you owe it to yourself to give Mission a try.

I love the concept of being able to order your pizza at the same time as ordering your beer. The…read morefact that you don't have to do separate ordering is great. I like the style of pizza and they have some interesting specialty pizzas. I just didn't love how the pizza we had only had a very small amount of cheese. It was also super messy, the pizza had breadcrumbs on top, which were good, but they went everywhere all over the table. We also tried the meatballs, which were good but nothing special. I am all about being eco friendly but the taste of the wooden fork ruined the taste of the meatball (not a fan of the popsicle stick type flavor when eating).

Almost every beer on the menu is a split batch fermented with two different yeast strains to showcase the resulting differences. It's a great concept, even if you're not into brewing. In terms of the food, it seems like the really leaned into providing something good, well-balanced, and sometimes takes advantage of the yeast and beer being cultivated on site. I had a house salad and some dilly beans for lunch. The house salad was fresh and extremely well balanced. I'm glad they had something vegetable centric available. The dilly beans were good, but quite a bit for a single human. They're probably the type of thing you would want to split among friends. I actually showed up for an event in the evening where they served pizza using dough fermented with one of their yeast strains. That was truly excellent. Nicely balanced, not over the top, with a deeply flavorful crust. If you're in Asheville, I would consider this a must visit destination.

Although the pizza…read morewas very tasty, both pizzas we ordered came out with flimsy/raw dough in the middle like it hadn't been fully cooked. It felt awkward to take back/have it redone, but they did do that for us and it was much better the second time. We also had almost every small appetizer (except the beer cheese) and the Brussels and kimchi fries were absolute winners on that end. Wings were strong contenders. The dough bites were nothing special and the beets could have been more flavorful. My husband also didn't super love any of the beers in his flight, but maybe he just didn't order correctly. Both he and a friend felt disappointed in the Frankenstout. For a busy Saturday evening, we were able to find a table and service didn't seem too slow. *Pizza rec: Bianca (add bacon) *App rec: Brussels and kimchi fries

Our server was very kind and had great recommendations for the menu. we started with the half focaccia bread service, and it was fluffy and fragrant. Absolutely would recommend. For drinks, our server started us off with a sample of their sumac soda, a non alcoholic cocktail. It was mildly sweet and tangy, with some woody tones to it. It was so good we ordered another non-alcoholic drink, the fig cocktail, and that was great too. for the food, we got the lion's mane mushrooms, the gnocchi, and the broccoli. The gnocchi is my favorite. Probably the best gnocchi I've had in my life. The mushrooms were a close second, they were so tender and flavorful. The broccoli was a bit spicy and it was a good complement to the other dishes. Once again, our server's recs were spot on. For dessert we got the tiramisu. it was a solid tiramisu. Our server gave us a sample of the soft serve ice cream, and that was actually better than the tiramisu. Highly recommend their seasonal soft serve for a unique and delicious flavor. The service is very not rushed, and the restaurant has a beautiful and comfortable interior. It was the best place we went to during our trip to Asheville.

Bread (10/10): that is some GOOD bread. So aromatic. So fluffy. The butter was also amazing. We…read moreonly got a half-portion, but I could easily finish a whole portion by myself Fig (7/10): nice and refreshing. Would probably go for something else next time, though Lion's Mane (7/10): super, super juicy and tender. However, it did feel like it was missing something in terms of flavor Gnocchi (10/10): likely the best gnocchi I've ever had. Texture was spot on. Sauce was perfect. Greens paired well. Cauliflower (6/10): tasted decent. I wouldn't say I'm too impressed. Basically a take on Chinese cauliflower + chili crisp. I've had enough mala dry pots that this is pedestrian (for me at least) Tiramisu (7/10): solid tiramisu, but I don't think it's a must order. You can find comparable options elsewhere I absolutely love the "free sample" culture they have here. Our waiter had us sample some delicious sumac soda, and it helped us decide to order a fig mocktail (which was also great). We also got a free sample of the earl grey + limoncello soft serve swirl, and that was STUNNING. I'm so glad we sampled that, as we wouldn't have ordered it otherwise. Fantastic service from our waiter Ace. He gave us great recs and detailed rundowns of everything.
