Gluten free Great White pizza
Suzanne T.

Yummmmmmm!!!! We love this pizza spot! We don't live super close but anytime we are in the Carmel area, we make an effort to stop here, either for eat-in or takeout. The service is always very friendly and the food is ALWAYS amazing. We try to come early in the day before it is really busy and as we walk in, we are always greeted and offered to seat ourselves wherever we'd like. Our favorite is The Great White. On this last visit, we got a gluten free and a regular Great White. I was pretty impressed with the GF pizza. The other awesome thing is their soda mix. They serve Coke products and the mix is always fantastic.

I dont get over to Mellow Mushroom very often, maybe twice a year. But have been coming for nearly 20 years! The food is always good. Service is always friendly. (If a little slow, but they can get very busy. Sit back and relax!) I really like the nice big booths in the back. We tend to always get the pretzels, and this time our pizza was just a pepperoni. (They have a lot of interesting options.) The dough is soooo good! My only negative is when our server said did we want a cheese sauce for the pretzles (they come with maranara.) That dinky little cup of sauce was $3! $1 would be ok. Really that should be mentioned. Sigh. And the music is fairly loud, a little hard to talk. It's a busy place, lots of kids, too. I must be old, sigh. Anyway, the pizza and the pretzles are a #yum ! #ReviewsByRL

Mad Italian
Cynthia S.

Mellow Mushroom has it figured out and is is the best pizza you can get! I'm hooked, I admit it. It's baked on a stone to perfection leaving the crust just right. Using fresh ingredients brings pizza to a different level. Had the monthly special "Mad Italian" and the House Special" Pizzas that met my craving and now it's on my mind everyday, both were so good. The mad Italian starts with an Olive oil and garlic base topped with mozzarella, salami, ham, onion, roasted red peppers, pepperoncini and sprinkled with parmesan cheese, a great combo that will definitely satisfy your taste buds The house special has pepperoni, sausage, ground beef, ham, bacon, mushrooms, olives, tomatoes, peppers, and onions with a red sauce base. Oh, and we started with the pretzel bites w beer butter Parmesan cheese. It's a nice sized order that comes out piping hot with crispy edges and pillowy soft centers! Now you see what I mean. Just go see, you will love it. I keep pizza dreaming. Haha. The place has a lot to look at with their unique decor and the booth is comfy, with ample space. Service was top notch-we had a very attentive but not bothersome server. I'd give more stats if I could. Excellent!

Pepperoni and Black Olive Pizza
Mollie M.

What a neat spot! Lots of fun decor and art on the walls. It was very busy, but service speed was still good. We got a medium pepperoni and black olive pizza which was perfect for two people, but if you want leftovers, I suggest a large one. We were so hungry and the pizza was so good that I forgot to take a before picture. The pizza was on the greasier side. I will note that we had asked for it to be thin crust, yet I did not notice a difference between our crust and our friend's normal medium pizza crust. Oh well, it still tasted good. Their sweet tea was amazing too.

Holy Shiitake this pie is amazing!!
Sable S.

First time eating at Mellow Mushroom in Carmel and we were pleased to learn it was the same delicious experience that we have always had when eating at other locations on vacation! The Holy Shiitake small pizza was absolutely fantastic!! Great flavor and bubbly rise on crust and very tasty and clever toppings. The cheese bread was great and just crispy enough and my boyfriend's Italian sandwich was same excellent taste he's always had in Gatlinburg! Fun dining room setting full of color and quirky theming, nice outdoor seating area, good beer, cocktail and mocktail offerings and friendly service. Excited to get back and try the vegan cheese next time (they were out today)!

Drove 30 minutes to this kind of a welcome! Thanks for nothing.
Greg G.

Drove 30 minutes for this kind of a welcome. This is no way to run a business. Have your meetings after hours and serve your customers during posted hours.

Ambiance
Iris P.

What goes around, comes around Ate the Kosmic Karma pizza and it was one for the books! So happy to try this new pizza it was delicious The pesto was also amazing and it definitely filled us up happily The pretzel bites and beer cheese in this Indiana location were also really good! If you're ever around a Mellow Mushroom you have to go and try their food, they never disappoint! We even got a complimentary brownie sundae for Jake's birthday not to mention THE AMBIANCE OF THE RESTAURANT WAS AMAZING! All the artwork was perfection and our waitress was super sweet!!!

Bruschetta
Sai P.

Had dinner here and everything was delicious! The different textures of the bruschetta and Kosmic Karma pizza made me happy that we got both items on the menu, but they tasted very similar so I'll get one over the other next time (hard to choose between them though!) It did take some time for a server to come over, which had us waiting to order for a while. But our server was kind, and the interior decor was fun, vibrant, and interesting to look at as we talked and ate

Cool, large mushroom at entrance
Wanda M.

We'd never been to Mellow Mushroom until a few weeks ago when 8 of us went for dinner. The interior has a funky, 60's vibe with cute decor. A large mushroom by the front door and a VW Microbus creates a hippie motif. We were concerned about how quickly our food would arrive with 8 people. It turns out we were worried needlessly. Our server was great, and drinks arrived quickly with timely refills. The pizzas and sandwiches were delivered together so everyone could eat with each other and share yummy pizza slices. The menu offers salads (Bacon Blue Wedge), pretzel bites, spinach dip, wings, and Bruschetta. All I could make a meal of. Of course, you can create your own pizza, select gluten or vegan free, order one of the specialty pizzas, or modify any existing pizza. A few of the pizzas that caught my eye were the Holy Shiitake and Funky Q. Chicken. I ordered the Kosmic Karma pizza covered with red sauce, spinach, roasted tomatoes, fresh Roma tomatoes, mozzarella, and crumbled sheep's milk feta cheese plus applewood-smoked bacon. The toppings were fresh with generous portions of each ingredient and a chewy crust. The bacon was my favorite topping and not overcooked. My next pizza will be the Pacific Rim or Veg Out and add the apple-smoked bacon. My husband ordered the Burger and Fries and said it wasn't memorable. This was a fun trip with the group, and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys pizzas and salads.

I used to go there a lot but stopped when it seemed their cleanliness standards weren't mine. Any thoughts on that, good or bad?

Last time I was there I found a bug in my salad and a hair in my pizza so I agree with you. The locations in Florida (where I first learned about MM) were much, much cleaner.

Even before the barstool review this has been on my list to try just from the tons of positive Google reviews. The people that complain about the wait time are missing the point - it's that popular and in demand and a small pizza shop. If you have any ounce of patience, use it and order ahead so you can try it. It's on the expensive side. All said, it's still well worth it. The pizzas are huge and very authentic New York. Hamilton county has tons of pizza places with brick oven doughy crust, but not like this New York style one. It's crusty and thin, but not doughy. Super airy and flakey - by the time you get to the last bite of the crust it's honestly messy and crumbs are everywhere. You could scrape the bottom of the pizza and hear that crackle.The tomato sauce seemed like true tomatoes, not a sauce with a bunch of additions. The Parmesan on top gave it some saltiness too. We had onions, sausage, and pepperoni toppings - they don't overload them, it's like the right amount to be able to appreciate the pizza as a stand alone and the toppings. It's locally owned too and from the interviews I've seen, you can tell they just care about making great pizza and keeping it as simple as that. Overall, I'm impressed. I'd recommend if you're a foodie and appreciate good food.

Three members of our group ordered Chicken Alfredo, and all said that it was very dry with so little sauce that it looked like no sauce at all. Two requested extra sauce from our server and one just didn't eat hers at all. It took quite some time for someone from the kitchen to bring the extra sauce, by which time the others had finished eating. They were all charged for the extra sauce, even though it had been missing from their entrées. The server hadn't checked back with us or offered refills. Two in our group ordered salads, and they were happy with them. I observed two employees sitting on a bench, having a conversation while it appeared that tables needed to be bussed and cleaned. We waited a long time for our server to bring our checks, and then longer for our payments to be taken. I also had a recent experience with a carry out order where some of the items I had ordered were missing when I picked up the food, even though I had been charged for them. I was picking up an order to take to work so I didn't have time to return and pick up the items missing from the order. Crafters has a great atmosphere but improvement is needed in both food and service.

However, I will attach a picture of their menu. The pizza's were good, with fresh ingredients, and remained hot all the way home. We order one hand tossed crust and two crispy thin pizzas. The crispy thin crusts were thin.... but not cracker thin. They were very good none the less. The food is 100% Halal so the sausage is beef rather than pork. We got a sausage and mushroom pizza and enjoyed it. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Our bill was correct as was our order. The location has very limited dine-in seating. It appears predominately a carryout location. I believe they make deliveries as well but double check, including the delivery zone. Since it is mainly a carryout / delivery establishment, it is extremely important to me that orders are correct. I was very satisfied with the accuracy... my family can be very particular and makes a lot of menu substitutions! The menu consists mostly of pizza and wings. They have limited appetizer, salad, and sandwich wrap options. Drinks include bottled water and canned soda, among other items. We will return to this restaurant. The wings appear to get good reviews so we will probably order them next time.... along with another pizza!

The menu consists of Antipasti, pasta, salads, and pizza. They also have desserts of tiramisu, cannelloni and cheesecake. We ordered the Amanti Della Carne pizza. It consisted of mozzarella, pepperoni, homemade sausage, signature, tomato sauce, ham, and mortadella. All pizzas are 12 inch and thin crust. Our pizza was $17. We also ordered the spring salad for $7. It consisted of spring mix, tomatoes, and homemade balsamic vinaigrette. The spring salad was good. The lettuce was fresh and nicely seasoned with the dressing. We really liked the homemade balsamic dressing. The pizza was very good and had a lot of toppings. As mentioned there is no variety or choice of size. The pizza only comes in a 12 inch, which was eight slices. Also, there is no choice of crust thickness. It is all a reasonably thin crust. Not a cracker thin crust, but thinner than most pizzas. We really liked it. The table next to us ordered pasta. They said it was delicious. They asked our server if the pasta was made fresh in the house. The server replied that it was. Service was very good, friendly, and prompt. It appears they do a big takeout business as while we were dining we saw several people come in and pick up pizzas to go. We recommend if you were in the area
