Pretty busy place so far. Just opened. I sat outside as it is a beautiful day and I better do this now before the heat comes. My waitress Heather took good care of me. I got a 16oz North Mountain Grooving with a Pict and a small Mega-Veggie pizza. The North Mountain was great with a mellow taste and bite. Everyone was very nice and it was extremely clean. The music was good and not too loud (80s-today's pop). They have a full bar and the decor of the place was wonderful. The pizza was delicious. I don't think I have anything to complain about. Not even the price! Haha good job Heather! read more

All in all, our visit to Mellow Mushroom was a good one. There were 11 of us because we were celebrating our niece's birthday. So, we got to try a lot of different items. For Starters we tried the wings, pretzels (with the beer cheese) and the spinach artichoke dip. They were out of the mushroom soup, which seems a little odd. The wings were hot on the outside, but frozen in the middle (yes, actually frozen). At first they didn't believe us that they were still frozen, but we finally convinced them. They were apologetic and replaced the order. The pretzels were really good, but the beer cheese was a little thick and gummy. The marinara was great. The spinach artichoke dip was excellent. As a matter of fact dipping the pretzels in the artichoke dip was the best combo of all of the apps. Next we had our entrees. We got three pizzas (each had two different toppings), one calzone, one salad and one stuffed portabella mushroom. The pizzas were good. One was really good (I think it was the one that was half ham and half pepperoni). The "Loaded Potato Pie" that was on half of one was tasty, but a little weird (not sure that I can get used to sliced baked potatoes on pizza). The other half of that one had the "Rib Eye Pie" topping and although it was OK, for the price it was very sparse on the meat and therefore not very meaty tasting. My biggest issue was the Calzone. First of all I think $9.49 is a little pricey for a cheese calzone, but I wanted to try them, so I bit the bullet. I noticed on their website that they had a "Steak and Cheese" Calzone, so I asked the waiter and he said they could make one (I didn't ask how much extra, so I guess that's my fault). That brought the price of my Calzone to well over $12.00. I would accept that since I didn't ask the price, but I could barely find any meat on it and fully one half had no meat at all. My other complaint would be the extremely slow service. I will cut them a little slack on this since there were 11 of us and they are fairly new with obviously inexperienced staff. They were nice enough and you could tell they were trying. I think they have a pretty decent Happy Hour offering and I will go back a couple of times to see if anything improves, but right now I can't go over three stars. read more

Absolutely delicious food! Their menu is awesome the prices are decent the atmosphere is amazing. I absolutely love this place. However we've been there twice now and both times we've waited twice as long as what we were told, witness tables around a sit down after and get their food before us as our servers tell us that the pizza always takes a long time to make. Awesome beer selection, but the bears are too expensive and my opinion. another awesome thing is that they're open until 2 AM totally bar style. The server was really nice and helpful but it just takes too damn long! read more

The food is not worth the wait. The wings seemed to be be just warmed up and the pizza was less than average. The concept is there but the execution on the menu is lacking. read more

This restaurant is our go to for Happy Hour! So excited they are back open from our server Kaelin, to the bartender making us incredible surprise shots(Bryan), and Jesse managing this place to the fullest potential, we couldn't ask for a better restaurant in East Mesa to enjoy girls night every week! read more

These guys can not handle volume. Went here on a weekend and a to go order for two pizzas took 90 minutes. The pizza was good, but there are other pizza places close by that are just as good if not better. read more

Our new favorite spot! My husband and I love it here the food is incredible. They let you spit specialty pizzas so you can try something new. Anthony was our server twice now and both times he was awesome. He really knows the menu and has a great attitude. read more

Been waiting forever for this location to open, as a rule I love the mellow mushroom. However, this new location has not figured out how to get food out of the kitchen in a timely manner. 9 of the 10 tables around us were complaining about waiting over an hour to get food. Also the runners running the food couldn't figure out what tables to serve all night long. This could have been an excellent experience but now it just has me wondering if it was worth the wait. read more

Pizza was great. Not too loud, not too quiet. Service was great. Bummed we didn't try this before. We will be coming back

Our first time at the Mellow Mushroom was great! We had a great waiter, Steven, who gladly told us about the groupon deal while we were ordering and saved us about $25! read more

Me and my family ate here for the first time and enjoyed the whole experience. We didn't wait too long for our food and our burgers were hot and fresh and delishious. So you get what you pay for. read more

Overpriced for what the pizza was. Pizza was not bad... But not great! Don't come here hungry because it will take quite some time for your pizza to arrive at the table . One good thing was the array of happy hour deals they have . Aside from that this place was overpriced and there is definitely way better pizza elsewhere. read more

Start out by trying their pretzel bytes with beer cheese dip. To die for. Their pizza is good as are their salads. What I like the mist ability mellow mushroom is that unlike most of the restaurants in Gilbert and Mesa, they are open late. If you want to grab a bite after a late event they are a great place to go. read more

This was the first time I've been to Mellow Mushroom. We had a party of 6 and were seated immediately. The service here was less than stellar. Our first server took our order. We ordered a pretzel appetizer to begin and somewhere along the line it disappeared - along with our server. We had to flag down another server to inquire about the missing appetizer. They had no idea what happened to it and resubmitted the order and comped us for it. That was cool. Shortly after we finished our pretzels, our pizza order was brought to the table. The pizza was.... okay. I'm not sure why, but I was expecting something better. A few of us agreed that the toppings were good, but the crust was blah. Oddly enough, the crust and the pretzel had the same texture and flavor. We had to flag another server down to refresh our drinks. We also had to flag our original server down to get our bill. So, overall, the service was very poor and the food was mediocre. It was unanimous that we will probably not come back here. read more

I wish zero stars was an option. Our 35 minute wait turned into a 55 minute wait and my name was still never called. I went back to hostess and she said she called my name and I wasn't paying attention and I must not have heard it. She must have been whispering cause I was paying pretty close attention. It's gonna take a lot of convincing to ever go back there again. read more

The pizza here is amazing! Their mushroom pizza was the best I've ever tasted! I'm addition their beer selection was diverse and unique. The atmosphere is fun and trendy. read more

Had dinner at Mellow Mushroom last night. I was immediately turned off when our waiter approached us with a very long beard. I always find it very unsettling to have a man serving my food with a long beard. His service was fine, the food was good, a little dry. Also, I thought the specialty wines very overpriced. Overall, I like the decor of the Mellow Mushroom and think I will stick to going there for lunch in the future. read more

Great food but sometimes slow service. Sometimes it's like they forgot you were there and never come back to check on you. It's good for a large event. I used to bring work groups in for events. Lot's of food options... I should say it was at the Awhatukee location though. read more

I went in with a buddy a couple weeks ago and most of their menu had pot references. Personally I don't agree. It was too much. They're brownie looked delicious. Our service was quite slow. read more

We've tried the other location in Tempe on Mill Ave. That was pretty dang good. This place was eh, ok. We ordered an all mushroom pie, I forget the name. It hardly had any flavor at all. The pie was very oily. I had to hold mine pointed down for a few seconds each slice to get the oil to run off it. We also ordered wings which were soo soggy. The skin was very soft and spongy, was pretty gross. Im sure theyre working out some kinks but for the price you pay you expect things to be perfect. I mean its a $22 medium pizza! read more

We love the pretzel bites! The pizza and salads are great too. The food is consistently good! Unfortunately the sun was shining pretty bad on our table from the Western Windows and made it pretty unpleasant. When we addressed it to the manager he didn't seem to really care and said there was nothing he could do. Otherwise it would have been a nice night out. read more

First time visiting this restaurant. The place is set up really nice. Sat at a high top so I could watch some football. Server was really nice and prompt, her name is Ashley. I ordered the burger and my friend ordered a pizza. The burger was really good, loved the fresh pickle slices and it was cooked perfect. I had a slice of the pizza, and I was not impressed, it just didn't hit my taste buds right. But, it's a personal opinion. I would hit this joint up again. read more

If you ever want exceptionally good pizza, don't pass this one up! If you do go, always always always try to request Robbert to be your server. He's a big goof and very well mannered! I say this place is a 10/10! Great job, Mellow read more

This place was so awesome!! My server rocked it!! Service was key .. for hey didn't have something we ordered and they took care of it ! It was this worst day ever and they just changed the page for us!! read more

The atmosphere and employees are truly the best in the area and the food is some of the best pizza in Arizona. Gotta check this place out!!! Oh and Happy Hour is such a great deal half off appetizers and drink specials galore! read more

Family stopped by this new restaurant in the neighborhood. Good looking place. Pizza and salad was tasty. Ordered the jerk wings. Another family member ordered the jerk sandwich. Wings are super small and way overpriced. The jerk sandwich had double the meat compared to the wings and it was cheaper. Don't get the wings!!!! Felt like I got ripped off. Nice place just don't know how I feel about the value we received. Also questioned why the bar is facing West with zero shade when you are trying to drink a beer with the sun in your eyes. The architect and design of the building is laughable. They didn't think that one through. Hopefully they get that fixed. read more

Was told a 20 min wait. Has now been over an hour. They're apologetic but it doesn't help when your cranky one year old wants to run in the street constantly. So far, I'm NOT impressed. read more

Food is good but beer is WAY over priced, $6.5 for a pint when across the street at Mad Dog it is $3 for a 32oz (only til 8 tho). We ordered one beer each, wanted a second but passed. It's not worth 26$ for 4 pints. I hope they change their beer prices fast or we wont be back any time soon. read more

We had a very nice waiter, Hunter! Loved all the food and it was worth the wait. We will go back.

Being a newly vegan family, it is so refreshing to find establishments that are conscious of our needs and attend to them. The hummus is delicious and so is the pizza! Thank you mellow mushroom read more

Mellow Mushroom was very disappointing. from word of mouth it was supposed to be fantastic, sadly it wasn't. The service was very slow sat without drinks for longer than need be. Also never not once felt like a priority until it was time to get the check. I was very shocked when they said the cookie with ice cream was out. Server came and brought one out which was probably the best thing that happened all night until having to eat it. The cookie was not warm at all the chocolate chips weren't even melted as described and was just as cold as the ice cream. the food has my stomach very upset and bubbly. Very disappointed with Mellow Mushroom and the service maybe with others they will try just a bit harder to make the guest feel at least somewhat like a priority. read more

Wouldn't recommend to friends. Decor cool and staff friendly but this is the 2nd time I've eaten here and it takes over 45 minutes to get your pizza. The artichokes were canned and the cheese was low grade. They brushed some oil on the crust and used canned Parmesan, really? Bottom line you pay premium price for low grade food. read more

Mellow Mushroom is the place to go whenever you want a cheap, Family night out. Whether you want a Pizza, Calzone, or Sandwich Mellow's employees will deliver. read more

We always love coming here, the happy hour is excellent and the food is always great. Good craft beer selection. We had great service from Bryce, he made us feel very welcome and comfortable. Will continue to come back. read more

When we first went to this place, we had the Pizza. It was really good. So, since Friday is our "burger day" we decided to go back and try the burger. We arrived at the restaurant around 4:00pm. This is a big restaurant and there was nobody in the restaurant except a couple of guys at the bar. We were seated and proceeded to look at the menu. My wife ordered a small chef salad, I ordered the only burger on the menu. It was $11.00 so I thought this "has" to be good ... right? While waiting for our "food", a family came in, and the host seated them right behind us. THE ENTIRE RESTAURANT IS AVAILABLE, but we get the family right behind us. I don't dislike families, but do object to the two 4-year-old's, who sat behind me, continuously kicking the seat, staring at my wife and running back and forth on the seat like they were in some kind of marathon. Again, I have no problems with family. Love children. But a dining out experience should not include hearing nothing but screaming kids and their kicking on the seats. Finally, the "food" arrived. The salad was huge for a small, and the burger "looked" tasty. They only offer Swiss cheese and I've never had a burger with Swiss cheese, and now know why. The waitress looked at the empty bottle of catsup and said "Huh, that looks empty", and sat it down on the table. It was absolutely the worse thing I have ever tried to digest. It had absolutely NO FLAVOR. How do you do that. How do you make a burger with absolutely no flavor????? It had something cheese on it, that was also flavorless. There were two pickles on the plate that actually tasted like pickles, but that's about it. It came with these potato things that also, had no flavor. Eleven bucks for two tiny pickle slices that taste like pickles. What a deal. My wife HATED the salad. It was served it in a slanted bowl, making it impossible to mix together when you add the dressing. OH YEA, DON'T EVER ORDER THE "HOUSE" DRESSING. IT'S AWFUL. There was a small amount of toppings but it was mostly lettuce. When the bill arrived, we discovered that even though my wife ordered the SMALL salad, she had received a LARGE. So, since everything about this dining "Experience" was HORRIBLE, what kind of tip should one leave for a waitress who: serves tasteless food, places the wrong order, presents you with an empty catsup bottle, never asks how the swill tastes, and seats the Brady bunch, HIGH ON SUGAR, right behind you to kick the hell out of the seat while running some kind of a marathon? The exclamation point to this disaster was, while we were attempting to dine on this swill, a "homeless looking" waiter, with more hair than sasquatch, walked by our table, picking at the wax in his ears, and twisting the ear hairs together for what I assumed was some kind of macramé class. We don't care how good the pizza was the first time, we will never, ever, ever, ever consider this place for anything but an eyesore on the landscape that we occasionally have to drive past. Oh yea, I stated to the BIMBO host that the "food" was absolutely TERRIBLE, she said "well, have a nice day". It must be the policy of Mellow Mushroom to just hire idiots? read more

Food is always fantastic! So many choices & have never been disappointed. Hubby's1st time, and he said he'll definitely be back soon! Always a plus when your dining experience is above par: our waiter was awesome & the GM also came by to check on our food & service. Very friendly, professional & knowledgeable staff! Make sure to have the pretzels & cheese sauce...sooooo good! And, ask your server for craft beer recommendations; nice pairings for any taste! read more

Nice place, lots and lots of beer choices , we had the house pizza it was very very good , service was great . We went on a weekday about 3pm , We would definitely return read more

Holy cow slow slow slow. Over 1 hour to get a pizza. Asked 2 servers for Parmesan cheese to put on our pizza over 20 minutes. Pizza was good but damn so so slow. read more

If you're okay with below-average pizza and absolutely terrible service than the Mellow Mushroom in Mesa is for you! We waited over an hour for our pizza, and had to remind the waitress to come back multiple times (we would have ordered more!). But that isn't the worst of it, their computers kept crashing and they kept our methods of payment for nearly a half hour. We were in a rush to leave, but couldn't because the staff didn't come back and ask for cash or check, (basically holding our cards hostage to spend more time in a tacky furnished "pizza" dump). Sure they apologized (twice, over the period of nearly 3 hours) but no meal was comped, nor discount given. Seriously the manager walked straight in, reminded us of the problem and left after waiting 15 minutes for the checks to return! I am very disappointed in my experience, please, don't come here. read more

I was so excited when this location opened because it so close to my home! But their customer service is NOT like their other locations! I can't speak to the food because after my phone experience, I decided it was better just to order from somewhere else! Jamisha answered the phone, I could tell she was busy and annoyed. I asked to place a takeout order and she sent me to voicemail, I called back and she put me on hold for almost 10 minutes until she came back on the line, but was talking to someone else. I could hear their entire conversation. After 5 minutes of that, I hung up. When I called back and explained what was going on her exact words were "well I can take your order but its going to take a few minutes, were really busy!" I told her not to trouble herself, we would just order pizza somewhere else. No apology or attempt to keep me in the phone. Bummer Mellow Mushroom! read more
