    Stopped in Boone NC for the first time. Found this restaurant and decided to give it a try. Service was prompt and courteous. Was seated right away. Server came right away and was very professional and patient. Food was outstanding!!!. Every plate that was ordered came in the right amount of time. The temperature was perfect and the ingredients were fresh. Drinks were good and had no after taste. The ambiance was just perfect. It felt like a home away from home evinronment. Prices were very adequate... If you travel to Boone gove this place a try definitely a new experience.

    Great dinner time! I enjoyed the food at this location. I usually find the locations in the mountains to be better than the ones in the city. The pizzas, the Huggies and the mushroom's soup were tasty. Our server was great as well. The location is spacious and has a nice decor. You should stop by if you are in the area.

    We love Mellow Mushroom! Service is always great and attentive and you can't beat their pizza. The interior decorations are on point and I love the ambience- Tame Impala and Rainbow Kitten Surprise as background music, love it. Definitely recommend MM if you're looking for good pizza and a chill atmosphere.

    While service can vary from location to location, you can always count on consistently yummy food at Mellow Mushroom. I don't frequent many chains, but this is one I have no problem choosing in my hometown or elsewhere as I know I am going to enjoy some delicious pizza. While in Boone for July 4th weekend, everywhere downtown had a wait. We decided Mellow was our best bet as it's a pretty big place and maybe would be less popular to tourists wanting a new Boone experience. They text you when your table is ready and it honestly only ended up being like 20 minutes. We were sat in a booth in the corner by the kitchen, which was nice as the place was jumping and kind of loud. Our waitress was very nice and overall attentive considering the crowd. They had a Grilled Chicken Cobb salad I hadn't seen at my local Mellow that my husband and I ordered as a starter to share. It was really good. Nicely cooked bacon pieces with big chunks of avocado and chicken. Wish there had a been a little more tomato, but that's nitpicking. Their Esperanza dressing went great with this salad, as it does with everything. We shared a medium Thai Dye as it's my husbands favorite. Tasty just like it is at other locations, nice amount of toppings and their crust really is the best. It's just a very fresh tasting pizza and don't know of another joint that has something like it. Try it if you never have. Sometimes it's not on the written/local menu, but they will generally make it for you if you ask. Do it! My cousin can't have dairy so he got the Mighty Meaty, but without cheese. There was so much meat on that pie I bet that helps one forget cheese is missing. I do appreciate that Mellow is so accommodating for all kinds of dietary restrictions. They can do gluten free crust, vegan cheese, and all other kinds of substitutions a person may need. Makes it a great place to go with a group and all can get something they want as everyone loves pizza. My only complaint on this visit was the bathrooms. In the Women's there was only one operating stall, which made the wait long. Also, the trash was overflowing with paper towels all over the floor. It was clear it had not been serviced in a while. As I said they were crazy busy, but when you are busy this is something you gotta stay on top of as it can really effect the customer experience.

    We had a very great and pleasant dinner at Mellow Mushroom. Our server was very polite and professional! The only reason I give 4 stars is prices. I think this restaurant is overpriced. Our pizza was good but the price something around $27 for one medium pizza that's ridiculous and it wasn't that special. It's good but nothing more. Not impressed. But in general it was fun restaurant to have a dinner.

    We came in here on a Sunday night over a holiday weekend, it was quite busy so we opted to eat at the bar. The decor is bright and fun, it would probably appeal more to kids though. I'm not sure if they had parking or not, but we opted to park in a town lot that was about a block away. We noticed they had some interesting drink specials, so we each went for the $6 margarita. Not too strong and pretty average quality drink. We ordered the pretzel bites with cheese, so delicious! If you do a Yelp check in, you get a coupon for free bites! I have noticed this promo is common at a lot of the Mellow Mushrooms that we have been to, so be on the lookout for it. We have had the bites before and know the portion is generous for 2 people, probably better to split between 3-4. We each ordered a side salad and one small pizza to split, we were stuffed by the end of our meal. All of the food came out fresh and fairly quickly considering how busy it was. The pizza was flavorful and salads were good. With the coupon, I think the total bill was about $32, so not too bad! I'm sure we may be back next time we are in Boone.

    Mushroom soup.
    Anne S.

    Mellow Mushroom is good, though if you've been to one, you've been to all. I mean that as all of the food items are essentially the same. So nothing new to report here in that regard. As it relates to this specific location, the folks here are very friendly. They quickly accommodated this evening for a large group of both adults and children. Despite the size of our table, the food orders were all correct, and there were no issues with splitting up the checks individually. Prices are reasonable. Would definitely consider coming back with a large group! Regarding food choices, today I did something out of the norm and did not order pizza or beer as I dined out (confession: had yesterday). Instead, I had a lil (small) spinach salad (spinach, pecans, feta, dried cranberries with balsamic vinaigrette) and bowl of the mushroom soup. Salad was , as always; the soup was alright but not what I was expecting. The consistency was more like a "cream of mushroom" soup, and instead I was hoping it would be more broth-like with whole or sliced mushrooms. The soup was good enough for me to finish but I will probably never order it ever again. Next time, I'll definitely stick to my Kosmic Karma with a local craft beer on the side. Regarding atmosphere, I think it's nice. It is more open than other locations I've attended. Notably, it doesn't have an outdoor area and parking is limited to parallel parking on the street given this is located in downtown Boone off King St.

We also ordered the Brazilian steak, which was cooked perfectly and came with great plantains. The quinoa with tofu was good, too, though it was a little dry and would have been perfect with a sauce.

Not being too hungry, but knowing we needed something, we decided to just split an order of the pulled pork nachos. The food came out fairly quickly, looked and tasted great. They did not skimp on toppings. Staff was friendly, food was good, only complaint is it was very dark inside, and surprisingly loud in the restaurant, I can't imagine being there with live music, I assume it would be impossible to have a conversation.

The room walls are thin so we heard a lot of noise from the outside waking us up early in the morning. You also have to pay for parking at 25 a night but there was a lot of construction making it difficult to get our car out. I know not the hotels fault but definitely keep that in mind. They had really nice robes. They also had a sound machine in the room. We had a thing on the wall that would randomly flash at night and beep. We had issues with the bathroom. The door would not close all the way and We could not get hot water when we tried to shower late at night. We had to go to the front desk and they had to call maintenence which took a bit to work through the issue. Eventually they got the hot water back but an annoying time waster. They discount our stay at 10% for the issue. The breakfast was really nice full of local pastries. The staff was so nice and friendly. The lobby area and bar was super nice and had a cute vibe. The roof top is super pretty at nice with nice fire pits. The staff was super friendly. I would have rated a 4 star but the price was high plus the issues we had knocked it down a star.

Our favorite part was the location. It was so conveniently located. They have a front door with access to king street and a back door to Howard street which was convenient. We were able to come and go easily. The rooms aren't huge but had everything we needed including a mini fridge and the shower was really nice. Of note- it didn't have a huge window in the room, just a small one towards the ceiling. There was a tv with lots of channels and a channel guide. We received some coupons and recommendations to nearby businesses which was a nice touch. Our experience was a bit different because it was very snowy so we couldn't enjoy the rooftop bar. The parking was also tricky- they have a loading zone right in front for checking in, but we circled the block several times and it was taken every time so it was kind of a pain to unload our car. We also had trouble finding the parking lot (even with the address, directions and map) which is behind the hotel, across the street and diagonal from the hotel. We had to circle a few times to find it. But that may have just been because it was dark and snowing. Our favorite part was definitely the breakfast. It is at the downstairs bar. It is complementary when you purchase the parking pass, and you order what you want from a menu. They have lots of options, including fresh fruit, hard-boiled eggs, and lots of pastries and baked goods from stick boy bakery in town. We love stick boy so this was amazing! So high quality and tasty! They also have other things available for purchase like avocado toast. They also have coffee from a local coffee shop available all day. We would go back!!!

Note, however, that if you're looking for private secluded spaces, this may not be the spot. We were able to be seated immediately upon arrival, and our server was promptly by the table to go over the menu with us. We each ordered a cocktail and the skillet chocolate chip cookie. The skillet chocolate chip cookie arrived a bit before both of our drinks, which was a bit odd considering we had waited probably 15 minutes without drinks. As far as the cocktails, we ordered the Cynar Old Fashioned and the Buffalo Heard. The old fashioned was good, though I didn't notice the flavor of the Cynar at all. It was very dry, which I like, but may not be for you if you like a sweeter old fashioned. The Buffalo Heard was light and refreshing, with a nice bit of the bourbon shining through. Overall, the cocktails were quite good. It's a unique spot, and has a lot of potential. It appears they are still ironing out a few kitchen/bar/service kinks, but I think these are all small things. Look forward to visiting again soon.
