This is my favorite Mellow Mushroom location because we are always treated so well here. I recently became pescatarian so I decided to try the Veg Out pizza but sadly it wasn't as good as my previous order of the Funky Q Chicken. It was still great, don't get me wrong, I just think something was off with the flavor of the vegetables. Overall I still had a good time and I think next time I'll try something new. read more

Been to mellow mushroom here countless times, as well as on our travels to Asheville, etc..a always been a favorite. Sadly, Mellow mushroom is no longer special. On the box it says brick oven since '74 or something. We walked in to pick up our pizza to see the brick ovens gone, and tacky gas station vibe conveyor belts rolling out cooked pizzas. So sad. Needless to say, our pizzas that I had ordered thin crust and crispy, were squishy and flaccid. Spent over $100 - called to voice our disappointment over the change for faster pizzas over quality and taste. Was kindly refunded a whopping 17.49, to be exact. Classy. Won't be back. Enjoy your Pizza Hut dupes. read more

One of the best buffalo chicken pizzas in Raleigh! The crust was crispy, with plenty of cheese, toppings, and flavor on the pizza. It look a little while to come out, but the restaurant was busy on a nice night and our waitress was attentive and offered refills while we waited. We sat outside on the patio, and for being right near a main road, there were plenty of trees, umbrellas, and mushroom decorations to make it feel more tucked away read more

Great service! Great food!! The Peace street Mellow Mushroom has been one of my wife and I go to spots for food for over 10 years. We mostly order takeout from Mellow Mushroom these days, the food is always delicious and the takeouts are seamless. My order is usually the Jerk Chicken Wings My wife likes the Funky Q and The Works pizza. *The salads are awesome too. read more

My son saw the photos of Mellow Mushroom and he had to check out this cool spot! The food was affordable and delicious, huge servings! I love that the kids menu was on a coloeinf page but with a variety of fun things for my son to do. I brought my siblings and husband with me and we have a wide variety of taste and diet restrictions but we were all able to find something we could each enjoy. Only slight downside was the waitress didn't seem comfortable when my sister started to ask more in depth questions regarding ingredients and no sense of urgency when it came to taking our orders or checking in on us. All of that aside the food was delicious, the atmopshere was psychedelic and artistic, and we had an amazing time! read more

They're not just tossing dough here, man -- they're conducting intergalactic flavor experiments fueled by cheese, love, and questionable amounts of oregano. Mellow Mushroom was born in a groovy haze of peace, music, and mushroom-shaped enlightenment. Their pies aren't just food; they're edible art pieces baked at the intersection of Woodstock and Wonderland. Every slice is a journey through the cosmos -- a tie-dye tapestry of flavor that'll make your taste buds question reality. The sauce? Sun-kissed and suspiciously perfect. The crust? Hand-tossed with a splash of molasses that keeps the taste buds wanting more. The toppings? Picked by people who probably say "vibe check" before every shift. At Mellow Mushroom, time doesn't exist -- only cheese pulls, good tunes, and that moment when you realize you've accidentally joined a pizza cult (but like... a really chill one). Whether you're here to find yourself, lose yourself, or just find another slice, you're among friends, free spirits, and people who firmly believe pizza is a legitimate path to enlightenment. Cheers! read more

I was in there a couple of weeks ago. I had a great time. It was cool that it was in an old Pizza Hut restaurant. The place has a great vibe and the food was good! The service was great. Our waitress (I believe her is Kayla?) I remember she is a Billy Strings fan. She made the experience so good. A complete joy to talk to. She was so professional and personable. That place is lucky to have her. I will definitely go back next time I am in Raleigh. read more

Not terrible but not great pizza. Crust was kind of "mushy" and sauce was decent. Probably not a huge surprise that MM has gotten so far away from its origins as it franchised...but....it used to be THE BOMB but now is kind of a dud. If you are in a pinch and in the neighborhood it will have to do, but probably best to find a real authentic pie elsewhere. read more

Found this really dope pizza spot while visiting. The atmosphere was great and the hostess were nice and helpful. We got a couple of items of their menu and it did not disappoint! Pepperoni pizza had ricotta cheese with a dash of hot honey, garlic Parmesan wings are spot on with taste I like the creamy sauce added to them. The pizza crust might have been wheat. Overall this pizza spot has good vibes and great food definitely worth checking out. Giant mushrooms everywhere reminded me beyond wonderland read more

I recommend getting two smaller pizzas if you want to leave out certain items on only half the pizza. It was rather difficult trying to get the correct pizza with doing half and half. The manager was great by giving us a discount after 2 attempts! They also tried to give the sauce and onions on the side to remedy the holy shiitake side; however, it was still not as delicious as it normally is with it all cooked in. This won't stop us from going back, but it will definitely prompt us to order differently next time! The patio was a great spot to relax with the nice weather. read more

I haven't been to Mellow Mushroom recently. Our family members, spread out all around Raleigh and surrounding communities, decided it to be a centralized location. We ordered three large pizzas since 3 of our group of 6 were men (bigger eaters). The pizza options had something to please all - meat eaters and veggie eaters in our group. The pizzas were piled with toppings and piping hot. All three were yummy. The service was attentive but not overbearing. There are options to eat inside and on a covered patio as well as an open patio. I'd definitely go back again when in the area. read more

Always great. They will provide extra sauce. The pizza's are great. So is the bruschetta! Great food, great 70-ish theme atmosphere, and just as important, GREAT SERVICE. Plus, it's located at Peace Street and Glenwood at the beginning of the Glenwood South neighborhood read more

Ordered two pizzas to go and boy were they delicious. Didn't actually go inside the establishment but looks like a nice place from the outside. The lady on the phone who I placed my order with was knowledgeable and helpful and my pizza was ready when she said it would be. No complaints there. Only thing I wish I would have done was get a dipping sauce for the crust. The crust is great but can be a little bland if the toppings don't go all the way to the edge. Will definitely return! read more

Great food and pizza! Service is excellent. Awesome atmosphere. Highly recommend to all!

Such a vibe this place is! If you go during peak hours, you'll definitely have to wait. Servers are friendly. Ordered the Great White, Holy Shiitake and a Veg out GF and Vegan pizza. They were all delicious, cheesy, surprisingly even the GF and Vegan. The borders were too thick, look at the Holy Shiitake, I mean i would have like the borders to be thinner so that I could get more toppings. I am someone who doesn't eat the outer crust at all. Some areas felt quite doughy and raw, see picture. I loved the overall taste, I am craving for it while I write this review, so yes the pizzas were really good, therefore the 4 stars. But there is scope for improvement! read more

Though it is a part of a chain, and I usually prefer local pizza joints, Mellow Mushroom has proved itself to me as the most reliably great pizza in Raleigh that I've had - both for takeout and dine-in. The pizza's bake is always spot on, neither over or under cooked. The quality of the ingredients is high as well. I brought family here when they visited from out of town and they reacted by turning their nose up at the idea of a chain instead of a local place. They loved it so much that they now say there is no need to go anywhere else. It is worth dining in at least once to see the cool wall art. This place has a unique vibe to it and theming extends even to the psychedelic menu. It's a lot of fun to see, and the servers we have had were all kind and attentive so far. I'd rate it as a must try. Check it out! read more

The service was great. We had a lovely waitress and the ambiance was nice and relaxed. The food was just average. The pretzel bites were dense but the cheddar dip was good. The pizza felt stodgy and heavy. The choice of toppings was good. The pizza was not as good as I had expected. read more

Stopped by here on Saturday around 2pm for lunch after finding out MoJoe's had a 35min wait. Was happy to not have to wait for a table! The food was decent - special shoutouts for the pizzas, as they were definitely the best items. Kosmic Karma was great, I definitely recommend for pesto lovers! Merry Prankster was also great, I really enjoyed the herb aoili drizzle on there! I'll say the ritz burger was not good.. the meat was extremely dry and lacked flavor. I'd stay away from the burgers here. The wings were fine, nothing special. read more

Top tier pizza end of story. I've tried pizza all over, just got back from NY. It's up there.

Pretty good place for food. For our appetizers, we ordered pretzel bites but they came with a long hair in it. Nevertheless, the waitress was kind and quickly took the item back. The manager returned back with our new plate which was a nice touch. We each got our separate pizzas and they were delicious, I'll say that. Overall the all the food was amazing and the service was great. Just a note, the place is a bit loud so don't expect this to be a nice and quiet dinner location. You do have to speak up to hear your dinner date. read more

I have been visiting this Mellow for probably 20 years. They have so many tasty items on the menu. Before I was gluten free I loved the soft pretzel appetizer. Their salads are fabulous. I love the enlightened spinach salad and the Greek salad. Their dressings are really flavorful as well. On this particular Friday night we were seated immediately outside on the deck and the weather was perfect. It's such a fun spot on the corner of Peace and Glenwood. We asked to be seated in our favorite server's section. Eden is positive and energetic and always gets our order right. She quickly brought us our drinks and put in our food order. If you are gluten free, Mellow has good GF pizzas. I always order the Kosmic Karma -- such a great mix of flavors. And, because I'm a sauceaholic I asked for extra pizza sauce on the side. Everything came out just as I ordered. Son ordered a Cobb salad with no dressing. I guess it's yummy enough to eat without dressing!? Son had gluten free brownie for dessert which he said was delicious. Always look forward to visiting Mellow. This was another great experience. read more

We ordered pretzel bites, tater, tots and a mighty meat pizza. I had to remind the server( Brittney) about the pretzel bites and tater tots after the whole table had got their appetizer. The pizza took an hour to come out, everyone else at the table had finished eating before it came out. They forgot to put in the order because when it finally came out it was hot and they messed up the way the piece were cut so some were smaller then other. The only reason I giving it a 2 star is because the manger was very nice and took off from our total. How long I was waiting was unacceptable and this is why I had to write this review to tell other about this horrible and despicable experience. read more

The outdoor seating area is nice. Indoors is nice and spacious. We were seated quickly. Pleasant atmosphere. The food was delicious. The wings came out smoking hot. They were so good. The wings are a lil pricey but I guess worth it. Most places have gone up on their wings since Covid. Nothing new anymore. (20 for $29.99) The Holy Shitake pizza was yummy. I also tried a smoky peach tequila drink. It was good. A hint of jalapeño in it gave it a kick. I'm definitely returning. The parking, during certain hours, may be limited or tight. It's worth it. read more

Our waitress was top notch! She was great with my little one. The food overall was good. I wasn't too impressed with the pizza. The crust was good, the flavor was bland. The stuffed portobello was delicious and the magic mushroom soup was sooo good (I could have ate more). The wings were good. They had good flavor, but weren't too crispy. I'd get them again. I would come back for the soup and try something other than pizza. read more

Delicious lunch here - pretzel bites were very good, especially the cheese dip. Ordered two small pizza - one white and one cheese with mushrooms. Everything served fast, correct and hot. Brought pizza home for later. Restroom was spotless, restaurant very clean and our server was very friendly. Nice patio for outdoor dining, parking is a little bit limited, traffic was a bit heavy and we had a little wait to turn out of lot. Good option for downtown Raleigh dining. read more

Food was amazing as always! Our waitress Kody was very sweet. She gave ample suggestions on most popular dishes and even her personal favorite the loaded potato pizza. We received our pizza and calzone really fast. Only downside was our drinks were really watery. I was disappointed because I felt it was no flavor did not taste like a margarita (RB margarita). Overall loved the experience and food. read more

Service was very slow but it was because of the kitchen. Our server was very friendly and apologetic especially after the kitchen forgot about one of our two pizzas. They very kindly comped the pizza even though we didn't ask. They rushed the missing pizza and then the crust was very doughy and tasted undercooked. My husband enjoyed his Hawaiian pizza though and the pretzel bites were very good. read more

I love this place. Great location, awesome food usually great service. Fair prices BUT somebody needs to tell the owner to fix the A/C

Initially I thought was a mom and pop, but soon realized it was a chain haha. Regardless, I loved this little spot. My girlfriend and I were driving around downtown Raleigh when we came across these giant mushrooms outside the restaurant which immediately drew us in. The service was really nice and the workers were friendly. They had outdoor seating with umbrellas as well. Pizza was amazing. The small pie is really small however. Would recommend a medium at least if you're really hungry. Many options on the menu to choose from if you don't just want pizza though. I'll definitely be back again. read more

I've been here a few times but usually call in a take out order. The staff is great to bring it to the car. The food can be a hit and miss though. One visit, it is absolutely amazing, and the on the next visit...not so much. The servers are really nice and so is the Management. The atmosphere is quintessential pizza parlor and the wait time is very good, even with a call in order. Everyone is typically welcoming but the kitchen needs consistency. If there is a problem, the Manager will make it right. read more

We were combing the town for a place to eat lunch and found Mellow Mushroom. Our first visit at this location. The atmosphere was nice with both indoor and outdoor seating.

Such a great place in a great location a great way to end a day of sight seeing! The pizza was delicious and the atmosphere is fun with all the mushrooms.

We used Mellow Mushroom catering for our wedding, and they knocked our socks off! The catering coordinator, Noah, is simply amazing. He was very responsive and helpful as I determined what I needed to order to feed 215 people, delivery logistics, and display. I came out of the ceremony into the cocktail hour space and teared up because it was so awesome! Beyond what I had hoped for. The appetizers had a great set up and our guests raved. The pizza was also amazing as always (and why we chose them to cater our wedding). I wasn't involved in the day-of logistics as the bride, but my wedding coordinator spoke just as highly of Noah's timeliness, professionalism, and customer service. I couldn't recommend them more to cater for your event (and have had just as great experiences in-person, too)! read more
