For bar food, the food was actually pretty good overall. My sister-in-law ordered a wedge salad and chicken wings. She said the salad was in delicious. I didn't try it because blue cheese dressing is definitely not my thing, but I did try her wings, and those were delicious! My nephew ordered the spicy chicken sandwich with fries. I forgot to take a picture before he dug into it. The fries were really good, but unfortunately, the chicken sandwich wasn't. The chicken itself tasted good, but the spicy sauce was "yucky," according to my nephew--and I have to agree with him! He didn't even finish it, so I ended up sharing my pizza with him. We probably should've sent the sandwich back, but oh well. I ordered the Meatza pizza. When it came out, it looked a little dry, but it ended up tasting much better than it looked! I enjoyed it and was happy to share it with my nephew. My brother ordered the catfish and fries, and that was SO good! The fish was very flavorful with a nice, light, crispy batter. I would definitely recommend the catfish. And once again, the fries were really good! The only real issue we had was the service. Our server didn't come around often enough to refill our drinks, and we had to wait a while to get our check. Other than that, we had a good experience. My brother and his family really enjoyed themselves and said they'd happily come back the next time they're in town. Between the football games, live music, good atmosphere, and mostly good food, it was a fun place to take family visiting from out of town.

I am always excited when a new restaurant opens up in my neighborhood. I am a big fan and proponent of shopping local, especially in food establishments. I won't lie, when I first researched the Mellow Mushroom and found out that they were a franchise, I was a tad sad. Then I learned that each of the 110 restaurants are completely different from one another - no cookie cutter layouts here! I had the pleasure to sit down with owners Jay and Diana, and was impressed with how they give back to our community. One of the first things you notice about each Mellow Mushroom location is the unique art on the walls. At the Happy Valley location I recognized shots of the local Phoenix scene and great art from local Phoenicians. As part of being in the Mellow Mushroom family, each location gives back a substantial amount of money to local artists to outfit each location with visual wonderfulness. I enjoy good wine, but when you go to the Mellow Mushroom, it is the beers that have top reign here. With more than 36 beers on tap, (Tempe has 48) it is very easy to pair the perfect beer to your pie. When you become a regular here and don't see your favorite libation on tap - just ask. If you are there often enough, they are more than happy to bring it in for you. I was stunned. Seriously? I could just name my poison and you will bring it in? Now that is what I call service! There is even a Beer Club that you can join if you want to taste all of their beers. My love for root beer started when I was very young and I would ask for one each time we went out for pizza (long before there was delivery). The Sonoran Root Beer is crafted locally and made from Sonoran Desert honey, plus it is mighty delicious. Next time I go in I have to try it with a scoop of Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. Yum!! I admit, I have eaten at the Mushroom quite a few times, and often enjoy their Happy Hour from 3-6pm and I have been known to come back for their Reverse Happy Hour from 10pm-2am. Seriously - can't go wrong with half priced appetizers and beers. The crowd is usually those coming in for a beer after work and meeting a buddy to relax a bit before going home. One of my favorite appetizers is definitely the Spinach & Artichoke Dip - tons of cheesy goodness with the right mix of spinach and artichoke hearts. Often times, I split the Capri salad with its delicious mix of fresh mozzarella, vine-ripened tomatoes, basil, and the most orgasmic balsamic reduction that I have ever tasted. OMG - can I have a bottle of that reduction please!?! Meatballs. Seriously. I just need to say it again - Meatballs. These are freaking awesome! The sauce is sweet, just the way I like it, fresh basil, shaved Parmesan, and inside each meatball is a soft cheesy center = Heaven. Please make more because I am not sharing! I am not usually a fan of pretzels, but boy was I pleasantly surprised when I tasted theirs! You could taste the freshness and the softness when they came right out of the oven. The pretzel dough tasted like it had been mixed with honey - actually it's made with molasses and Georgia Spring Water. I was hooked! For all of the Vegan lovers out there, the dough is Vegan, but make sure to ask for it sans the Parmesan cheese. The same dough that made those awesome pretzels also creates the crust for their signatures pizzas. That is the only thing required from each franchise is that the dough is made in their flagship location in Atlanta, Georgia. On one of my adventures to the Mellow Mushroom, I had the help of eating my way through a few of the pizzas with @skinnyjeans aka @noshtopia. Read her review as she talks about all the great gluten-free and vegan items that are on their menu. The owners' son came up with a pizza that is unique to Arizona, but with the name of the establishment, I was quite surprised that not all of the franchises have it on their menus - the Fun Guy Pizza. This is by far my favorite pizza and it has five different types of mushrooms loaded on it: Shiitake, Crimini, Button, Portobello, and Oyster Mushrooms with lots of Mozzarella cheese and the sauce is a house-made Grilled Mushroom Vinaigrette. I'm in love. I seriously didn't want to share. I have tried all of these pizza too: * Kosmic Karma: This pizza has a love of olive oil and pesto chicken, with tons of sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, Feta, and fresh tomatoes. Loved it!! * House Special: Their signature pizza loaded with flavor and freshness with Pepperoni, sausage, ground beef, onions, green peppers, mushrooms, black olives, tomatoes, ham, bacon, and of course, extra cheese. * Mighty Meaty: Stacked with Pepperoni, Italian Sausage, ground beef, ham, and bacon Read the full review here: http://bit.ly/ijJJXh read more

Mellow Mushroom is all about Happy Hour. Since Mellow is located between my place of employment and my house, I frequent Mellow Mushroom for happy hour at least a few times a week. The bar layout is great! It's a horseshoe bar with 15 or so bar stools, which are always filled, and some scattered tables and booths in the bar area. There is also a patio out the back door which is attached to the bar. The bartenders are rad, but sometimes get over worked with orders. Mellow Mushroom is packed every day, however I usually never have an empty glass. The bar is loaded with 6 to 8 flat screen televisions which always have sports playing. They have every DirecTV package so if hockey is your thing, this is your bar! The beer selection is awesome. They have a vast selection of draught (28 or so on tap, even a draught root beer for the kids), bottles (about 15 different "flavors"), and a couple different variates of canned beer (MGD, Coors Light, PBR and a couple of craft cans like Trout and Dale's). Draught beer comes in 16 and 20 ounce sizes for "normal" beer and 9 ounce snifters for the high gravity beers such as Rouge Old Crusty. Pricing is a bit of a concern at Mellow Mushroom. The 16 ouncers run 6 bucks a pop and the 20 ouncers are 7 bucks. Hi-grav beers are a little more at $9. Bottles range from the 4 and 5 dollar range for normal bottles up to $25 bombers from the Rogue brewery. Cans are a little cheaper at $2.50 to $5.00 a can. The combat to the pricing is Happy Hour. On weekdays, Monday through Friday (for those who aren't completely aware of what weekdays are) from 3-6 PM and from 10 PM to close, Mellow Mushroom has half off all alcohol! This makes it very reasonable, especially $1.25 PBR and $2.00 Tecante cans! If rewards are your thing, Mellow Mushroom is for you. They have a Beer Club! Drink 75 different beers, get a plaque on the wall (ala Old Chicago) and get your own mug. At that point you get the big beers at the pint price. Along the way you are also rewarded with beer koozies (25 different beers) and free appetizers (50 different beers). Appetizers are the only food items I've had there, as they are half off during the first happy hour. The homemade pretzels are by far the best. They come in Garlic & Parmesan, Salt, and Cinnamon & Honey. The pretzels are made from the same dough as their pizza crust, which is a wheat bread with a bit of sweetness to it. The artichoke dip and hummus is also out of this world. I'd steer clear of the tomato bisque, it's basically a bowl of marinara sauce. As for other food, I haven't tried it, but they do deliver within a 3 mile radius of the store. This is THE BAR in the northwest valley. P.S. 4 star review because of non-happy hour pricing. read more

Mellow Mushroom... I love you!! This place never fails to keep amazing me. If I were to die and come back in the next life.. I would want to come back as a bad ass restaurant like Mellow Mushroom! Cool now that I have your attention.. The best pizza and beer for miles!! They have a retarded (ridiculously good) selection of craft beers! They are extremely diverse, meaning they have a great selection on tap, canned, and bottled! I was blown away by the amount of local selections they have available. I tried the Moose Drool, Whittaker, and Decadent! All choices were awesome! The Decadent was extremely high in alcohol content, so I was only allowed to have it in a rocks glass (small glass) at a time. If you truly want to get hammered quick, down a couple of those bad boys. HAHA! I downed a few of them not knowing exactly what I was getting myself into..."Hey Marlaina! (bartender) It was me, who threw up in the urinal that one time... I apologize for the mess, and pointing at the other hammered guy across the bar blaming him... I will find a way to make it up to you!!" Well any who yeah... Great beers!! Now on to the food! The reverse happy hour here is retardedly awesome as well. They have these pretzels that allows you to choose three different flavors of any combination! I usually go for the Garlic Parmesan! They are bomb! The Pizza here is freaking incredible! Something about that crust that keeps my attention going back to the pizza! Maybe they put some kind of addictive supplement in there or something but, it's like a slice of heaven! Every time I eat the pizza here it brings me to my happy place. I love being in my happy place FYI.. I really don't have anything bad to say about Mellow Mushroom... Wait there might be one thing.... Nope never mind I can't think of anything. In my opinion.. If you rate this place less than 4 stars you need to reevaluate your life, and have a come to Jesus meeting with your inner demons that blind you from the true treasures of this short and fragile time that you have in this world. Okay I am down typing now my thumbs are hurting and my legs have feel asleep from sitting on the toilet to long writing this review. Cheers! read more

This place is a blast! It's always lively and loud, so come ready to yell over the drone of the next table if you plan on carrying on a conversation. The beer selection is great, with lots of unique brews you don't see at other places, with the obvious exception of the Yard House. The pizza is outstanding!! Again with a lot of very unique toppings and combinations, including the new "house pizza" topped with 5 different types of mushrooms! How mellow is that?! It's usually quite busy at dinner time, especially on Fridays and the weekends but it's worth the wait! Lunch is great too, with some very reasonable prices, considering the quality of the food. You definitely want to check this place out at least once, even if it's just to say you've had a pizza with a sunny side egg on top of it - don't knock it, if you haven't tried it! read more

Mellow Mushroom is one of my favorite HH places, but I will stick to the location at High Street. This Happy Valley location served good tasting appetizers and beverages but the service from my waiter was horrible. Saw him 2 times. Once to take our order and then when I had to flag him down to get my bill as I was waiting forever for him to at least come by to see how everything tasted or if I need anything. Real kicker here is he hardly had any tables. Ordered when I was seated and it took 15 minutes or so to get my beer and then a little over 30 minutes to get 2 appetizers! Dining room not busy so kitchen shouldn't of been overwhelmed and not sure why I never saw my waiter. Manager did not table touch - even the online survey asked if the manager did, so you would think they would've if they knew it is a survey question. read more

Me and my boyfriend had a tradition of going to boba tea house and then eating at mellow mushroom. We never had an issues with bringing our drink in while we waited for food and we always ordered an additional drink to wash down the pizzas with. We've done this about 4-5 times since this used to be one of our favorite spots to eat. Today we went in as usual except we were denied for having "outside drinks". I normally would understand but just last month we were served with our drinks and the server even made a comment on how good they looked. The experience just soured our whole mood since it was totally unexpected. They're very thick smoothies so it's not like I could've sucked them down in 5 seconds. We ended up going to humble pie and they let us bring our drinks in. read more

So my wife has celiacs disease and a dairy allergy as well. While there have been vast improvements in GF pizza over the last few years (plenty of GF crust options), the likelihood of finding dairy free cheese to go with it is not good. When she heard that Mellow Mushroom had both she was anxious to try it. She ordered a GF pizza w/dairy free cheese. When she got the order, it accurately says that, but it most certainly wasn't a GF crust. If you've ever seen someone with celiacs consume gluten it isn't pretty & very painful for them. This lack of control is beyond irresponsible, it's dangerous. Oh, but they'll credit the money spent so you can order from them again. If you have special dietary needs STAY AWAY FROM MELLOW MUSHROOM. Bad business! read more

The girls I talked with were super nice- when I placed my order online I ended up changing it. I understood they would probably need to re-charge me or at least charge the difference. I was right- unfortunately I was never refunded the original amount. I called to bring this to their attention and they told me they were too busy to help me- I was very understanding because I work in customer service so I gave them every piece of information they would need and said it would be fine if they called me back in an hour. The manager never called me back and I still haven't received my refund. The thing that sucks is the food was great, but I won't be back or recommend to anyone. read more

Based on what I've tasted so far (as take-out) I can recommend the Hawaiian-style with ham and pineapple, and the veggie kind with tomato, basil and feta (and possibly something else). Crust was unique and pretty good, but I noticed a tendency of some of my fellow diners not to eat the fairly massive amount of crust. I wasn't so sure about the kind with potatoes and bacon. The bacon itself was done just right, but I wasn't so sure about the combination. Seems like they are possibly trying too hard with too many "unusual" flavors added for effect, just to be different. I will repost when I try more varieties and eat at the restaurant itself to see the atmosphere, etc. read more

I visited this place for a late-night snack since other nearby options were closed. I ordered a half pepperoni, half BBQ chicken pizza along with Sriracha hot wings. While I enjoyed the hot wings and managed to finish them, I found the pizza less satisfactory. The toppings tended to slide off, and the dough didn't appear or taste fully cooked, despite our wait for it to be done. I decided not to finish the pizza out of concern for my stomach. I appreciate that it was late, which might have impacted the quality, and the staff were friendly and attentive. I would be open to giving this place another chance during busier hours when they might be more on top of their game. read more

****SINGLE WOMEN BEWARE**** The Norterra location has a sexual offender that frequents the bar every Friday and Saturday. The manager and staff support the man coming to their bar and harassing women and the staff. He is a stocky older (mid 50's) man, Caucasian, with white facial hair, viewed tonight wearing a light blue baseball cap. SEXUAL PREDATORS can be found in many different bars, but this one knows that he is in a welcomed environment and feels at liberty to harass women verbally and physically. ****SINGLE WOMEN BEWARE**** Management refused to discuss the issue. The whole staff was familiar with this man making women uncomfortable, he is a frequent customer. read more

Mellow is my favorite place to go! Half off munchies(appetizers) and almost everything behind the bar for happy hour. There's an amazing selection of mostly craft beers on tap and the bartenders are very knowledgeable and friendly. Even all of the cooks in the open kitchen say hi when we walk in! The service is another perk to boot. Everyone is always friendly and accommodating too, whether it's two or 20 of us. Seeing Amber whenever I'm there is definitely the best part, she really is one of a kind! Keep doing what you guys do! If you like good beer, good food, and good service, you'll love this restaraunt. read more

Well its interesting I'll give them that. Their pizza is definitely different. If your looking for the typical pepperoni pizza you should probably go to dominos or pizza hut. the mellow mushroom as it is called has put just about every food known to man on their pizzas. I wasnt sure what to make of it. The pizza was good i'll admit but some of the stuff you'd have to have an acquired taste for. oh but the spinach pizza now that was really good and i would recommend that. if you really want to go all out they have all kinds of toppings for their pies its great for someone who has the munchies i guess. read more

I've been visiting Mellow Mushroom in Norterra for 9 years, and wow, time flies when you're having fun (and pizza)! It's been amazing to see how they've improved over the years. Their veggie pizza and sandwiches have always been a hit with my family. The ambiance is lively and colorful, and the servers are friendly, making it a great spot for family dinners.

I enjoy Mellow Mushroom. You may say that I am a regular. They have a phenomenal beer list. If you live in the North Valley, you should go. Over 20 craft beers on draught, dozens of greet canned craft brews and the best damn rootbeer around (try it with jager). Unique hand tossed pizza (including Magical Mystery Tour and Baked Potato Pizza). Sandwiches are good, but just chips come with it. Nice staff and great happy hour from 3p-6p and 10p-close (which are the best times to afford to drink the craft beers). read more

So we came in on a Monday night, long story short the two bartenders that were working seemed like only one bartender. The board said Ann Marie and Chris but it should of only said Chris; the dude was running his A off! The girl was gone for maybe 30 min... My bf and I thought that she ended her shift or something...

Mellow has always been an easy choice for after work drinks with their reverse happy hour, but unfortunately in the last few months the owners have decided to bring on a new manager Alex Dominguez; there has not been one time we have come in without being harassed by this "man" who has never even served us he will just go to other mangers and guests not unlike a school girl trying to "start crap" in his own words.

Sauce Pizza & Wine

3.5

(382 reviews)

Over the years, my wife and I have enjoyed visits to Sauce for some good pizza, salad, and pasta…read more We have visited various locations though this is the location conveniently located near our friends when we made an outing to see them. We stopped at this Sauce along the way and had a delightful experience at this location. We ordered food at the restaurant though we have ordered to go at other locations. We started going to Sauce when Sauce was part of the Fox Restaurants and continued even after it went independent. I have enjoyed their garlic knots (which are served with warm marinara sauce), Classic Caesar salad (with house-made croutons and shaved parmesan), and the Mozzarella, Fontina, and Basil pizza with either chicken and/or pineapple added as toppings. I have also tried the Chicken Caesar and Parmesan pizza (which is a white pizza topped with a chicken caesar salad and grape tomatoes). They also change their menus on occasion or add special menus. For instance, right now, they have the BOGO free promotion for pepperoni and cheese pizzas every Monday in October. This is the Norterra location just off I-17, which is open Sunday through Thursday from 11 AM to 9 PM and Friday through Saturday from 11 AM to 10 PM. They accept online ordering and online catering. You can sign up for their e-family to receive special offers by going to https://www.saucepizzaandwine.com/e-family. You can also join their rewards program at https://www.saucepizzaandwine.com/rewards and receive $5 off your first purchase and a free dessert for your birthday. You would need to use their app to redeem these offers. They also have happy hour on weekdays from 2 PM to 5 PM. Happy hour deals include half off bottles of wine and light bites, $2 off glasses of wine, $6 for one-topping personal pizzas, $1 off beer, and $7 Strawberry-Basil Sparkling Lemonade Spritz. I certainly recommend stopping by Sauce for some good food and good service.

This was my first time trying Sauce after having it recommended to me several times. I ordered…read moreonline for pickup. I've tried other similar concepts (Blaze Pizza, MOD). I must say I was not impressed. First mistake was ordering the thin crust, if there's a next time I'll try hand tossed. I only have the pepperoni pizza pictured, because it was incorrect-- it was also supposed to have Italian sausage as an add on and it was left off. Pizza was dry, ironically needed more sauce. Also ordered the chicken pesto, it was ok but again not a fan of thin crust here. Ordered pasta and meatballs, pasta was extremely dry. I also ordered a Caesar salad with which was good, probably the best part of the meal. Overall, I'm not convinced this meal Was worth the $70 I paid.

Great service excellent pizza the way it should be cooked new York style …read more Very clean pizzeria and Great people.

This place has such great reviews so we gave it a try. My husband and I were so disappointed and…read moreboth said it was probably the worst pizza we've had in a really long time. It had a tasteless crust that and one of the toppings had a really funny after taste (we weren't able to isolate which one). The boneless wings were also pretty terrible and were $20 for some tiny mini baby nuggets. We had a couple bites and ended up giving it away to the guys at the park and bought from another pizza spot. Definitely not our taste and we won't be back.

What a breath of fresh air to have a person who is genuine, kind and very knowledgeable with recommendations on food choices. He was attentive and on top of it. His service from him rivals high end restaurant servers. You have a solid employee. This guy is the best!

We came here to celebrate my little nephew's birthday dinner. This was on Labor Day 2026 around 9pm…read moreso it was an hour before closing time. There were lots of different sports playing on the big screens, music in the background, and just a good overall clean vibe inside. The really good thing about Chili's is consistency. Every dish, drink, and appetizer is always served the correct temperature, cooked thoroughly or as requested, and always tastes great. We've been frequent Chili's customers for years and we've never once had to send anything back to the kitchen. There were 6 of us in our group and we ordered a variety of dishes, sides, and drinks. I ordered the Triple Dipper which is a pick 3 meal so I got bone in wings 2x and big bite sliders. It was really good. We didn't order dessert as it was going to be birthday cake time when we got home. Ample handicap parking stalls conveniently close to the front of the place, and they love to run the air conditioning super ice cold so maybe bring a jacket or sweater. I would have given this place 5 stars just on the food alone but there were some things that wasn't too great. 1) We were only checked up on 30 minutes after the food arrived so our drinks needed refilling like 20 minutes ago by that point. This place wasn't busy, there were maybe 3 other diners besides us there. 2) two menu items we wanted to order were out of stock that night: rice and mashed potatoes. My 2 fave carbs, oh no. 3) after our group was done eating, we waited an additional 12 minutes with our empty plates until our server realized we were already done and ready to cash out. I actually felt like giving them 2 stars out of spite but the darn food is really really good so 4 solid stars. Service here is normally 99% very good but maybe because it was Labor Day dinner time last hour closing shift, anyways I still recommend Chili's.

Lunch is going to be at Barro's. We all had the 2 slice + a drink special and it was $22 for three lunches. Very reasonable and great food. The food is why we come. I had the sausage and the chicken supreme. The supreme has a $0.50 adder but still a great option. This is a good size Barro's and like most Barro's, it is clean and has clean bathrooms. The service was great.

Suggest calling/website, those orders were flying out. Ambiance was ok, better than food/service.

They offered free garlic bread bites for dine in on top of the already amazing deal they have going on for the large pizza and wings. They also checked in with us which was amazing for a place that's not considered a "serving restaurant" the lady at the counter also offered us water cups which was very generous. The pizza was great with an amazing dough and perfect crust. The wings were good as well! I also love the fact of how clean it was in the lobby as well as the bathrooms! 5 stars all the way around :)

I've eaten here plenty of times and it's one of my personal fave breakfast spots. Staff is always friendly and accommodating. Today was just a pick up order but dine in has indoor seating or outdoor seating with water sprayers within their shaded patio area. The ambience inside is bright, positive energy, clean, and casual dining while the staff is fast paced serving dishes to tables very efficiently.

The crust had that…read moreperfect crisp, the cheese was gooey and stretchy (you know the kind that deserves a slow-mo cheese pull), and the pepperoni had just the right amount of crisp on the edges. The highlight of the pizza? The SAUCE. I recommend extra sauce! Trust. You ever wondered how those cartoon pizzas you wish you could get your hands on were like? This pizza would help you scratch that itch! I walked in and the colors were warm and cozy. The restaurant was clean and the smell was amazing! The lady at the front was super sweet and handed me my pizza like it was a newborn baby - told me to be careful because it was hot on the bottom. No problem for me... that's exactly how I like it! When I got home, it was still piping hot and tasted just as amazing as it looked. Let's just say this pizza could model! If you're in Peoria and craving classic, no-nonsense, made-with-love pizza - this is your spot.

But when you want a standard, big slice of cheese pizza this hits the spot. Right now they are doing a lunch deal for 2 slices of large cheese pizza and a drink for $7. It's a pretty good deal for a quick lunch. Is it the best pizza with the most delicate sauce and flavored crust? No. But if you want a no nonsense, right amount of greasy cheese pizza in a pinch with quick service, this is a good choice. I haven't tried anything other than the cheese pizza. But this local cheese pizza gets a 4 stars rating from me. If I try anything else I'll update this.
