    The Maui Wowie pizza!!!!

    I don't gotta say much! Never had this place and I LOVE it!!! Pizza is amazing, staff is amazing and friendly, ambiance is nice and clean!10/10 hands down

    Pretzel Bites
    Melody B.

    I understand Mellow Mushroom is a chain restaurant, but it's consistently amazing. This location is also great with making sure food is ready on time for pickup orders. I placed my order via their website for an hour ahead of time for curbside pickup. I ordered pretzel bites and a large half & half pie. The pretzel bites are absolutely necessary to have at Mellow. They are light and fluffy. The half & half pie is my favorite way to have pizza here because you basically try two different pizzas for the price of one. Mellow Mushroom is celebrating 50 years so I wanted to try their new anniversary flavors - Super Pepp and The Marley. Super Pepp was a great mixture of pepperoni & and honey. I loved the pesto base from The Marley. The dough from the pizza (and pretzel bites) is absolutely perfect. I could eat it everyday. As always, my order was ready on time and still hot when I got home. The portions were a good amount as this was two nights of dinner for my husband and I. I will continue to return here and cannot sing their praises enough.

    Lunch with my husband. Our server was a really nice young man. He kept checking on us, refilling our drinks. We opted for a lighter lunch.. salad and wings. The salads were a nice size and presented well. The ingredients were fresh. The wings were hot and the sauce was delicious. The atmosphere was relaxed. Plenty of TVs to watch.

    The girls were awarded a certificate for a free cheese pizza for reading over the summer. We headed here excited to try a new restaurant. I ordered a burger and some sriracha wings. Both were old and not fresh! Ugh but the girls enjoyed their pizza so I am happy about that. Service was great and the inside is spacious, clean and inviting.

    Elon Crew - Family Weekend 2025

    Enjoyed dinner with our son + friends + families during Elon Family Weekend 2025. Super busy weekend, yet manager accommodated our 15-person group and wait staff was extremely friendly and attentive! We ordered a variety of large pies and some individual ones for variety. The veggie holy shitake was out of this world! Their meat-forward pies are piled high. Nailed it on pizza crust. Everything was super delicious. Thanks for the great evening!!

    This one caught me off guard in a great way!! Mellow Mushroom is always good, and the vibe is so relaxed. It's a consistent place that we have enjoyed in multiple states, and it's perfect for families or large groups. I have always thought it was a little pricey for pizza, but the food is good so I pay it without complaints! My daughter and I ventured into this location after a doctor's appt and were seated immediately. Our server was so pleasant and asked us immediately if we wanted to do the lunch buffet. Lunch buffet??? I had no idea they had this option!! It's very affordable and gives you the salad, pizza, and soup options all for 1 price! I tried multiple pizzas and they were all good. They were pizza options that I never would have ordered on my own, and I also enjoyed salad and their soup. Seriously... TRY THE SOUP!!! So delicious.

    Half & Half Pie (wild in havana, and merry prankster)
    Julian C.

    We ordered takeout through the website, so we didn't get much of an experience of the ambiance or service. The pickup was quick and easy, and the employee that helped us was nice. The food on the other hand... Wow... I had previously always thought I wouldn't like mellow mushroom. That pizza changed my mind. The pizza dough was great. The combinations of flavors on both the different types of pizzas was amazing. I loved the merry prankster, and my girlfriend loved the cuban. I honestly would order this exact pie again, and still want to try other flavors. This was a little pricey in my opinion for pizza, but to be honest is worth it.

    Vegan Buffalo chicken pizza and shiitake pizza
    Rachael H.

    I love Mellow Mushroom's wide variety of pizza options. Before becoming vegan my favorite was the Thai Dye Pie, but now I love that you can build your own vegan pizza. The vegan Buffalo chicken and shiitake pizzas are excellent! The atmosphere is really unique too. I feel like if you actually went to a Mellow Mushroom high, it would be quite a trippy experience but I love the eclectic decor. I went to this location when visiting a friend, but am bummed the one closest to me closed a few years back (Oakley, Ohio).

    OMGOODNESS!!! This dough is so delicious No wait time, you are seated quickly and drinks on the table. Shout out to our waitress "Hanna" GREAT JOB Nice clean area. The music is old school vibes music great to bop you head to while enjoying your food. Good selections on the pizzas made for the buffet, ooooh and cinnamon bites with icing...you will loose you mind delicious Come out and support a local business. I give my stamp of approval

    Mystery(something) has mushroom and jalapeno
    Holly D.

    The pizzas were delish! The crust is something to write home about! I tried the Cloud 9 wings AMazIng can't believe I didn't try these til now. The service was good

    Small Holy Shiitake - so good! And the small is quite big for a personal pie.

    I'm definitely a fan of Mellow Mushroom, having visited several locations over the years and being a regular customer when I lived in Durham. I've ordered takeout from the Burlington location a few times but last night was my first time dining in. For a busy Friday night, our party was still greeted very warmly by the hosts and taken to one of the few remaining available booths. Our waitress was friendly and efficient, bringing refills before we had to ask. Each Mellow Mushroom is different inside, though still eclectic. I love the quirkiness. The Burlington location is one big open space with a bar in the middle and booths and tables surrounding - it can be a little tricky walking amongst the tables to get to a booth and understandably it was a bit loud given the crowd. I ordered the small house salad with their signature esperanza dressing and a small holy shiitake pie. The salad was fresh and had plenty of parmesan shavings on top. The esperanza dressing reminds me of a cross between caesar and italian - I can't get enough of the stuff. The Holy Shiitake pie consists of several types of mushrooms on a garlic base with caramelized onions and three types of cheese. I've had mushroom pizzas from other restaurants and Mellow Mushroom's continues to be my favorite. I also really like their dough and it was just right this time - perfectly chewy with a little crunch. I'm looking forward to my leftovers! This location offers a lunch buffet during the week and it's a great deal - all you can eat pizza and salad. I have missed the buffet in Chapel Hill since the closing of that location so I definitely plan on hitting up Burlington's buffet soon.

    Sunset in paradise- $8.50
    Ciara H.

    My mom had never been to mellow mushroom before, so I pulled up. I have been to many mellow mushrooms, but not this location. They had just opened so they were not very busy. Everything was clean and our server was great. I started off with some sunsets in paradise (yummmy), and bruschetta. The bruschetta was perfect, I don't like when it's super crunchy. We order the cloud 9 wings, so delicious and wonderfully cooked! Unfortunately we were full after and decided to order pizza another time.

    The Merry Prankster
    Nikki B.

    Can I preface this review by saying that I don't even like pizza . I don't know why it's never been my go to favorite! But last night I got a wild hair and decided that this would be a great choice for dinner. I am so glad we did. We had really great service and an amazing pizza. We shared a Caesar salad that was very good. Fresh greens and a really well done dressing! But the star of of the show is their new pizza The Merry Prankster! This pizza is loaded with green and red peppers, sausage, chicken and cheese and then so delightfully drizzled with an herby cream sauce. Oh my goodness. She's divine. I cannot recommend this one enough. I loved it so much I am eating it again as I write this review. Go now and eat it

    It's a Mellow Mushroom. Not much else to say. I like their pizza. The gluten free crust still upsets my husband's stomach so I do go often.

For food, I got the Smash Burger -- a good-sized, filling burger with a generous portion of fries. My friend ordered a side of fries (also a good portion) and Shrimp Tacos with Brussels Sprouts. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The digital golfing experience was a lot of fun! We didn't realize at first that you could switch from competitive mode to a more relaxed, Topgolf-style mode -- so definitely ask the staff to help you change it before starting if you want a more chill game. There are only two digital golfing stations, so on busy nights, make sure you plan ahead or arrive early if you want to play without waiting. Kim was very kind and helpful during our visit. Overall, Martini Golf & Sports Lounge is a great spot to bring family during the day or hang out with friends at night -- whether for food, drinks, or some digital golfing fun.

This time I decided to keep things a little more Atkins/keto friendly and ordered a grilled chicken salad and a cup of chili. The total came to just over $26, with the salad alone costing almost $17. I understand prices have gone up everywhere. I can accept that. What I can't accept is paying premium prices while the overall experience falls short. The first issue started before I even got inside. The restaurant was packed, and customers were parked all along the curb directly in front of the designated to go pickup area. That completely blocked access. It took me nearly ten minutes of circling the parking lot, backing up near the dumpster, moving again, and eventually squeezing my truck into a parking space (in the "to-go" pick up area where I'm supposed to be anyway) just to pick up my order. When you're that busy, parking becomes part of the customer experience. At some point management needs to step in and help keep traffic moving instead of allowing the pickup area to become unusable (don't tell me I'm wrong because I'll tell you what not only did. I have to navigate that situation due to cars being along the curb in front of the to go area, but two other vehicles that were parked in the to go spaces had nobody in them and I was there for 10 minutes waiting for my food so those people were inside eating in the restaurant I presume-given that I observed their empty vehicles for a total of 20 minutes). To be fair, the employee who brought my order out was excellent. She greeted me with a smile, was friendly, professional, and was easily the brightest part of the entire experience. Then I got home and opened the salad. For $17, this was honestly disappointing. The chicken, bacon, and toppings had simply been simply tossed in there, while the rest was mostly plain, sad looking lettuce. It looked rushed and careless, especially considering the price. The first of several photos are exactly how the salad looked the moment I opened the container on my kitchen counter. I hadn't touched it or moved anything around. The last photo, however, my awesome lady was able to turn that same salad into something amazing in just a couple of minutes. SHE chopped up some pepperoni that we already had in the refrigerator, diced a little Colby Jack cheese, added tomatoes, mixed everything together, and finished it with ranch dressing and a level 10 appearance on the plate. She didn't have to cook anything. She simply took the time to prepare it the way a $17 salad probably should have looked when it left the restaurant. The chili was good, and I'll absolutely give credit where it's due. Drake's still has menu items I enjoy, and I've had plenty of good meals there over the years. But when you're charging premium prices, customers deserve the same level of quality whether the restaurant is half full or packed to the walls. Being busy explains delays. It doesn't excuse lowering the standard. I genuinely hope Drake's takes this as constructive feedback because I know they can do better. I've seen them do better!
