Mellow isn't far from my work so we go at lunch or after work some days. It's pretty consistent - the pizza's good, and we always get pretzels beforehand. The beer selection is good and changes quite a bit. If it was closer to my house I'd go more often. read more

Mellow in Mesa is awesome. I've been coming here for about a year now and I'm never disappointed. Logan, Brandon, Robert, Gab, Chris, Jillian, Dana, Anthony, and every body else I forgot to mention are the best. No matter what night I come in, their customer service is phenomenal. And the food, oh my gosh, AHHHHHHMAZING. Their reverse happy from 22:00-2a is the best. All bars should have this happy hour. If you haven't been here already then you need to get here. I love everyone and the atmosphere but, Logan is my fav!!!! read more

The food was great, the happy hour is always a great deal, but the service was god awful. Our server checked up on us only twice- 3 times in the first hour we were there, our waters were never refilled, or alcohol, until we walked up to the bar and asked, after watching them just standing around. Then he brought us 2 waters for 7 people. And then at the end he charged EVERYBODY'S card wrong, it's not hard to take care of a party and these guys absolutely could not. read more

First time for our group tonight. They had a vegan pizza which made our vegan happy, another had the Hawaiian ( had different name) both excellent. We had the cloud wings which were some of the best along with great ranch dressing! I had the California club which was very good and 2 had the meatball subs! We all left happy! Not sure why it took us so long to try Mellow mushroom but glad we did. Service was good and full bar provided adult beverages. Win! read more

Good food but bad service. Hostess does not greet you. Simple says "who's next" and takes 10 minutes between seating people. Got our appetizer, and had to ask for plates and tableware. The server accidently dropped the salad dressing and it spilled on the table. He didn't come back to clean it up. We did. Our bill was wrong and the manager had an attitude. He fixed it but was clearly annoyed. And to top it all off, when I got the charge in my bank account, it was $2 higher than it should have been. Take out is fine but service stinks. read more

This is in response to Mellow A. We where there at lunch time and no one said anything about lunch specials. Really should have a lunch time menu if that's the case and have staff inform people of those specials. I will come back again and check out these lunch specials, thanks! read more

This is the first time here. Service was awesome and very helpful with suggestions. Beer was really good. Ordered meatball appetizer, flavors were good but meatballs were over cooked, still tasted good. Pizza was awesome and they use real mozzarella unlike some the the big pizza joints. Definitely coming back. read more

This place just opened by my house and we love pizza but my sister worked at the one on mill & said they treat their employees horribly & has nothing but negative things to say about the company so we've been hesitant to try it. We are here now and the menu is chaotic, hard to read & cares more about being cool then delivering what they have to offer in a clear fast manor. We finally deciphered the menu we ordered 2 small pizzas. Waited 35 mins for them to come out & paid $13.00 a piece for them.... the short of it is our bill is double what We'd pay at a place where the pizza is good & I can name 10 places I'd rather eat pizza 9 of them are cheaper & all are faster. The serves was fine no problems there I actually felt bad for the servers as my sister had told me so many stories. We won't be back. read more

The one star is because there was no wait, but maybe the empty parking lot was an indication of the service inside idk. We had a part of 8, three of them children so pivoting from the hour wait at Tx Roadhouse, opted for Mellow-mushroom in the same plaza. In retrospect, the hour wait was the better option. We were seated immediately and then ordered the kids food while we still decided - we were one of about 4 families there at the time. My granddaughters food came out and immediately I checked her meal and her mac and cheese was cold. It had been sitting- the kitchen staff who brought it out (turned out he was the mgr), said he would warm it up - no apology. We then ordered our food- my daughter has a dairy allergy and ordered her pizza no cheese. Food came out, instead of no cheese, they added vegan cheese. That had to go back and was remade with no cheese but also one less topping. By this time our drinks were empty (water, soda) and a beer that sat at the bar waiting for another server to bring. We ordered sundaes for the kids and wings to go but after 20 minutes, and a full table of empty dishes we requested a manager - the same one who warmed up the mac and cheese. I let him know about lack of service, inaccurate items and he said they were swamped in the back - which we had been there over an hour when it was only 4 families, including us and nothing had changed from quality of service. Sophia, our server not once came to check if we needed anything other than when it was time to pay and asked if we wanted anything else lol! She never came to offer to grab empty dishes or even bothered to write down my daughter's special request of no cheese, which could be detrimental to someones health. Another server said Sophia had a 30 table top reservation which doesnt excuse her lack of quality service overall, especially when we had been there way before her reservation or the families that showed up after. Zac the manager seemed unapologetic- yes he said sorry they were swamped - but honestly the apology was not genuine and he more so just wanted go deal with it and get back to the kitchen - fine. But when you have a nearly empty restaurant and a large family dining but their assigned server never checks on them, doesnt have bussers or themselves empty tables accordingly and are only interested in what you may want when it's time to pay - that is a problem! It's definitely worth the wait elsewhere to avoid going here unless you're going to sit at the bar and have drinks because they moved quickly and were attentive - Sophia was not - Zac could care less - and the near empty parking lot is a clear sign of the lack of quality service you're going to get. read more

We come here often for takeout orders and the pizza and salads are amazing!!! Make sure to try some cookies, too!!

This was our first visit but we will definitely be back. Dana was a very good and knowledgeable bartender and very bubbly. We tried the mushroom soup, a salad and a pizza and it was all great. read more

We are big Mellow Mushroom fans - and we used to frequent the one in downtown Chattanooga when we lived there. When my son asked me to find one for his 7th birthday - I was so glad to discover the Mesa location. It was the right choice!! First, what a fun environment! Lots of great decorations - yet very clean and with a nice touch of a feel of fine dining- there is no question the folks who run this place take pride in what they do and how they do it! We had the good fortune of sitting at Bryce's table. He was a phenomenal server. From the minute we sat down, he was friendly, attentive, and very efficient. He was great with the kids and my birthday boy was thrilled! Bryce brought large drinks but with lids so there was no spilling. We liked him so much that my husband asked for the manager to pass along the compliment. The Assistant General Manager Anthony, was a breath of fresh air. He was engaging, funny, and a really nice guy - who runs a great establishment. He was on top of the restaurant but took the time to chat with us. He and Bryce both made us feel so welcome. We will definitely be back and will likely be regulars! Hang on to these two guys. They make a nice chain restaurant really stand out. Worth the trip!! read more

Breakfast menu has a nice variety, Saturday crowd wasn't busy with no wait. Service was good. I ordered a ice coffee with cream. Very plain nothing special. On the menu I think it says 3.99 for an ice coffee. Finished the first and ordered another thinking it would be free for a refill. Got my check and was charged 2x 5.50 for each plain ice coffee. Asked my waiter see if he could do anything about the coffee. I guess the manager could only change the price to 3.99 like it says on the menu instead of being charged 5.50 for each coffee. Also my omelette was slightly under cooked almost runny on the inside. read more

My wife and I wanted to try this place for breakfast, touting the areas best breakfast, place was not busy, order was taken promptly, however the food was delivered almost 30 minutes later. Considering there was a handful of people in the restaurant. The wait was overly long. Food was delicious and portions were satisfactory. Wait staff friendly and courteous. read more

Great food everything is fresh. Nothing is made before you order. Absolutely the best in town. Staff is great and friendly. Food comes out hot and delicious. You can't go wrong. Anthony is the best server around. Highly recommend the food and the service read more

Mellow Mushroom Mesa - Great place great food. Anthony is the best - Salad Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Mellow Mushroom is our family's go to place for dinner. The food doesn't skimp on flavor and they have the best happy hour in the valley. Our first experience many months ago our server was Anthony. He went out of his way to walk us through the menu and he blew us away with his knowledge of the bar menu. He's polite, efficient, knowledgeable and by far the friendliest server at Mellow. We've come back week after week always asking for Anthony. The food is awesome, but Anthony keeps us coming back. If you're looking for a great night out with or without the kiddos, Mellow Mushroom is the place to go. Make it even more awesome by requesting Anthony. read more

First experience here...Saw a 515pm movie at Ahwatukee 24 and went to the Mellow Mushroom nearby for dinner after. Normal restaurant trouble....Wait for 2nd drinks, one meal delayed out of 3....But the food was pretty good. My one huge complaint was that when we got home I took a closer look at my son's leftover calzone....It was completely undercooked! I turned it over and it was all just dough....Like dough, dough.....And yea...That's not cheese! read more

The server was awesome and the food decent. We were a party of 3 until the black flies showed up. At first it was just two buzzing around us and then a full squadron on the back of the seat my friend was sitting on (8). Manager is aware of the problem but gosh hasn't figured how to take care of it read more

Awesome food. Pretzel bites were great, pizza was awesome. Steven was awesome. Very friendly good conversation. Will definitely be back!

The food was delicious but the customer service sucked. I ordered curbside pickup, there was no designated signs, I waited a bit and just went inside. There were was one table occupied and people sitting at the bar. I was pointed to the area where to pick up by the hostess. Stood there 5-10 minutes, finally the busy bartender asked if I was helped yet. He seemed to be the only one working with the customers. 3 girls were folding togo boxes and 1 other was walking around talking. The manager needs to work with his help if the place wants to stay in business. Like I said maybe 15 people in there at 6pm on a Saturday. read more

The service was really good, everyone was really friendly and helpful. I ordered food ahead of time and went to pick it up, wasn't ready so I sat at the bar and got a drink. I don't mind that it wasn't ready because I came earlier than I was told, but what annoyed me is the price of food and the low quality of said food. I got spinach dip and a medium veggie pizza and the total was $39.64. I was confused on why the amount was so high, then had to pretend to place an order online to actually get the prices of things. They charge $25.99 for a MEDIUM pizza, at Spinelli's they charge $18 for a medium and the quality is so much freaking better like holy crap. I finally get my pizza and spinach dip, spinach dip was dank but I was expecting some gormet pizza for the amount they are charging. Now let me tell you, this was the crappiest pizza I have eaten thus far in Arizona. When I say I can get a better pizza at dominos I mean it, and for half the freaking price! The crust had zero flavor, it was soggy, the sauce was flavorless, and the veggies on it were so nasty. They chose to put whole thick tomato slices (idk why they did this because I'm already eating a pizza with tomato sauce, and especially why not cut the tomatoes in quarters or something so I don't take a bit of pizza and have a whole tomato in my mouth), peppers, like one onion, and black olives scattered throughout. DO NOT GET PIZZA HERE, IT IS ABSOLUTE GARBAGE. You are better off going to Spinelli's because at the price they are charging you here (at Mellow Mushroom) for the quality they are giving you, it is a freaking scam. The only reason I'm not giving this place one star is because the spinach dip was pretty good and the service was awesome. The food though, they charge WAY too much and you can get better food at dominos, Pizza Hut, or even Hungry Howies. I'm not coming back here after this experience, maybe I'd be down to give this place a shot again if they didn't charge 25.99 for a freaking medium shitty ass pizza. It's not worth the money for me to try this place again (because I'm not about to spend another 26 bucks on a shitty pizza, because like at said, at that point I minus well go to dominos) if the quality can't keep up with the absurd pricing. read more

Really like this place people are very friendly. Crystal is our favorite waitress she works nights on weekends she is awesome.

Terrible experience. Family all in town and decided to do a lunch where one who is gluten-free could order. We had 10 people. There were only 3 other small tables of customers in restaurant . After an hour, Two appetizers arrived and were cold. Another 30 min One of our couples got their pizza and it was lukewarm rest of us were told 7 min. At 30+ min told it was coming. Some had to go to work so we asked to box things up. Immediately received bills. Asked to see manager. Woman who I'm assuming was manager never addressed table or offered any apologies for our now 2 hour wait, only started handing out boxes. When questioned she very rudely said they had take out orders and couldn't hire anyone. Based on her attitude my husband and I cancelled our order and left. Stick to take out if your sit down customers cannot be served well. read more

Love me some Brian and Dana! When they're not here Jenna & Jillian are excellent replacements. Reverse happy hour rocks at this place!

Great food and casual atmosphere. This location has a special menu item that is only served here called the Caesar pizza and it is amazing! Pesto sauce, salad, and pizza all wrapped into one?!?! I'm definitely in HEAVEN! My group of 5 showed up around 5pm on a Sunday and didn't have trouble being seated, though people were showing up left and right after us. Servers are friendly but a little slow at checking on your table...I guess you could say that's part of the "mellow vibe". I would highly recommend this location for a casual date or get together. The Tempe location is great also, service the there seems to be a little bit faster. I was disappointed that the Mel's Crabbie Mule was not served in a copper mug, but the server explained it was due to a lame regulation. Also try the bruschetta it's a great starter! Overall this and the Tempe location are #winning read more

Mellow Mushroom Mesa - Salad Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Well... if you ever were curious about this place. Don't bother. The initial wait was 10 minutes, no problem. Waitress came we ordered drinks, that took 10 minutes. Ordered our food that took 45 minutes. The food... bland. They gave me the wrong sauce, took our Waitress another 10 minutes to get me the right one. We sat looking at our empty glasses and remaining food for another 15 minutes before she brought over not 1 but 2 drinks we didn't want. We were done eating. We wanted boxes and the check. FINALLY she offered boxes... still no check. We pack up our boxes. Still no check. She comes over and asked about dessert. Then finally hands us our check. To sum it up... poor service, bland food, not worth the time. read more

Do not eat here. Walked in and the young black lady behind the host stand was anything but kind. She interrupted me not once but twice. I had two questions for her and she answered both with an attitude. No sense of service. Walked out the door. If this is who they have at the front I would hate to sit down and eat there. I have eaten at the other mellow mushroom . Great service great food. Here , poor service didn't even bother to sit down . read more

45 minutes later and we are still waiting on a large pizza. Staff hasn't interacted with us much at all. Be ready to wait and feel forgotten. Update: I talked to the manager and decided to give it another try. We had a much better experience. The food was great and service was attentive this time. read more

Worse service and full of flys and mosquitoes. Took for ever for food. I wouldn't give them any stars if I had a choice. read more

In the last couple years, we've visited this location because it's close to home. Each time we've had a disappointing experience however we have given them a second and third chance to redeem themselves. Last night we visited around 7pm. There was a total of 8 customers in the whole place. The waitress was great and prompt. But it seemed she was working other posts as well. The cooks however, are rude and abrasive. At one point the cook screamed across the restaurant as one of the waitresses to come get the food. No customer wants to be caught in the middle of the issues between cooks and wait staff. The bickering continued and at one point a waitress had to go tell the cook to knock it off because the customers could hear him. The pretzel bites we ordered were not pretzels, they were pizza dough with salt. The food takes FOREVER to come out. So if any fingers are being pointed to why this location will fail and close soon, look at your cooks. If I were any of those waitresses, and a cook screamed at me like that, I'd be waiting for him in the parking lot after shift. Pretty sad display of poor manners and etiquette right in the customers face. We will not be giving this place a 4th chance. It's over and so is this location. read more

Can we please talk about the calzones? We LOVE this place!! My husband's fav is the Sausagefest and I love the Veggie calzone the red sauce is so delicious, ask for extra. We always have good service and consistently good food and drinks. I'm a hard cider drinking vegetarian and my husband is a beer drinking meat eater so we can't go wrong here. When I'm not eating the Calzone I love the Holy Shitake Pizza, Hummus Plate and Tofu Hoagie...now I'll just have to try breakfast. Thanks, Dimitri for the great service tonight, we love your ambition. read more

Came here and the service was crappy, the waitress that served us seemed like she hated her job! Very slow service a fly came out from our pizza toppings and the pizza taste like sweat! Sweet tea way too sweet, me and my family will never go there again it physically made us all sick and my husband threw up! read more

Mediocre bar food. The only thing Mellow here is the service or lack there of. If you looking to be ignored and served generic bland bar fare, then this is the place for you !!!! Thank you for your generic bland response. Your server on Sunday at 2p was more interested in hanging out at the bar and ignoring the 4 tables in the entire place. read more

Super disappointed. We wanted something a little different tonight. The service was very slow. Food took much much too long. The pizza came out lukewarm and was supposed to be thin crust and it wasn't. The salad took longer than the pizza. They said the steak was frozen. What? Restaurant was virtually empty yet we've spent almost 80 min. Took 60 to get food. We won't be back. Bummer mellow mushroom. We think your interior decor is way cool. read more

I love the Mellow Mushroom in Tempe. It is my favorite pizza place. The one in Gilbert was okay, but the service was slow and the food took so long. It wasn't crowded at all, but it took over an hour. Other than that it was okay. read more

The wings were really great! The pizza we got had a ton of toppings and was pretty darn good. It had less sauce than I like, but that's more of a personal preference. Great service as well! read more

Always fantastic! Probably one of the best pizzas in the city. The crust is sourdough!

Nasty disgusting gross pizza. The crust was the only half decent element of my pizza. I ordered a veggie pizza. The cheese was nasty and toppings were skimpy. I lost my appetite after one slice. read more

We love the pizza, but it is soooo expensive! It cost us over $30 for 1 large pizza, and that's just ridiculous!

Got there later in the evening and we were seated immediately. We were having a small business meeting and the hostess seated us in a quieter part of the restaurant. We were attended to quickly and with a smile. In fact, Jillian our waitress was very happy. She gave us great suggestions from the menu and kept the sodas from hitting the bottom of the cup (my number one thing I look for in regards to great service). I fully recommend this place, and the Maui Wowie pizza was legit. I will be back in the future, and hopefully Jillian is here when I do. read more
