    Clean place, good food, nice service! No complaints here. My kids love it and the vibe is cool.

    Enlightened Spinach Salad
    Greg E.

    Atmosphere - The restaurant is very bright and well decorated. There is not much in the way of acoustics and so it is loud. Service - our server was nice, but the restaurant was extremely crowded and it has a large takeout business, so service was far slower than expected. Food - I apologize for losing the picture of the sausage and green peppers pizza. It tasted great, but at least a third of the pizza was bubbled up crust. I ordered the Spinach Salad and it was excellent. Overall - my wife and I love pizza and we had circled our calendars when we learned that a MM was coming to our area. We were looking forward to making the restaurant a part of our regular schedule of dining out. However this experience was disappointing. We likely try it again. Hopefully we will have a better experience next time.

    First time at this new location and I liked the atmosphere. There are booths and tables and a large bar, as well as outside seating. There is a nice beer menu, although the beer I ordered was not available. Our server was quick to take our drink order. The menu has a nice variety of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, calzones and pizza. I like that they have 4 slice pizzas. They have a large variety of pizzas, as well as a build your own. My husband and I shared a large sausage and green pepper pizza. We waited over 40 minutes for the pizza, which I thought was extreme. The pizza arrived with a lot of empty crust, when they could have put the sauce out further. The sauce and toppings were very good as was the crust. I just would have enjoyed it more if the sauce was extended more on the crust.

    Stopped in a Thursday night to celebrate son's induction into the honor society. It wasn't crowded and we were seated right away. Our waitress was sweet and accommodating. Inside was bright and had a few TVs. We ordered 2 pizzas that were delicious. Appetizer- boneless wings and spinach dip with toast was a nice change over chips. Overall a nice experience and would definitely recommend if you like good pizza.

    The food was good, The Funky Q Chicken had a little too much barbecue sauce for my taste...

    mellow mushroom pick up order

    I haven't had mellow mushroom since I moved from my hometown of Georgia... I never visited the brandon location because it always seems empty. This Riverview location was packed on its first week open. The service was fast and they were super kind. The Parmesan wings were amazing. They allowed me to order all flats which most places do not also most places Parmesan wings are pretty bland. There's was flavorful also with a little spice. I can't wait to try the Caribbean jerk next time. The small pizza was enough for one person or maybe even two the slices were huge and filling. I tried the mushroom pizza with mushrooms, caramelized, onions, truffle oil, and a garlic aïoli sauce. Next time I will add maybe pesto or another vegetable or pepper to add some pizzazz. There was a whole bar inside outside seating to go window on the side and adequate enough parking The decor inside is very groovy and it just puts you in a great mood.

    Savon was a great server- very helpful with suggestions and attentive. We started with the garlic parm wings and the cheese bread. I know the wings are baked, not fried, but I still would have preferred they were a bit crispier. The pizza was delicious. This is a good addition to the local restaurant scene.

    I came here with my sister for the first time. I would hear about mellow mushroom all the time, but had never visited a restaurant before until now that they have built one Riverview. To start off with we got cheese bread and garlic Parmesan wings. They were hot, fresh, and really good. We decided to get the house special pizza size medium. Which was also hot and fresh. I will definitely be returning a visit here. Our server was very nice but this place does get busy so our server was a little busy when trying to ask for things to wrap up our evening. The atmosphere was super fun and colorful. Which was a very unique place for adults and even kids to have a change of atmosphere.

    Calzone

    Love the Mellow Mushroom. I had the rolls---one with cheese, one with sausage. The sauces I chose (vodka and pesto) were really flavorful and added the perfect touch. The rolls were crispy and filling. My hubby had the calzone with pepperoni and Italian sausage. Great flavor, crunch and lots of ricotta cheese. The service was great--- waitress filled out drinks before we asked. Kind of a mellow vibe. Nice night out

    Late Friday night date night with hubby and we went to Mellow Mushroom. Been to other locations but the first time at the Riverview location. We enjoyed it! We got sweet Thai chili wings, a small house special pizza, and their two holiday special drinks Santa's rum punch and a frosted dirty coke (regular coke). Everything was fire! Fresh, delicious, and flavorful. I think the theme and ambience is such a vibe. Love everything about it. Definitely recommend. 10 out of 10!

    Strawberry jalapeño margarita - so good!
    Ian S.

    This was the best experience I've had at a mellow mushroom ever and I've been to the one in Sarasota and also in Brandon. Be aware that they do have tempeh to add to your pizza or hoagies. They also offer tater tots - both tots and tempeh are not printed on the menu but available so it's worth asking and the tots were phenomenal with creamy pesto and red sauce on the side for dipping. I loved how the holy shiitake pizza turned out by adding tempeh. I loved their drinks, specially requesting a strawberry margarita with their jalapeño sour mix. Mellow mushroom delivers high quality comfort food !

    Appetizer (meatballs) could have been hotter. Seemed like it was sitting for a while. Pizza was hot and fresh.

    If you're looking for legit wood-fired pizza in Brandon, Pizza Rock is absolutely worth a stop. I…read moreordered The Butcher's Pizza and the first thing that stood out was the crust--crispy on the bottom, chewy in the right way, and cooked perfectly. They're using a New York-built wood-fired oven with a rotating turntable, so the pizza is constantly moving while it cooks, and you can taste the difference. The cheese melts evenly, the edges get that beautiful fire-kissed char, and the whole pie has that true fire-roasted flavor. The experience inside was just as good as the food. The restaurant is extremely clean, there's a ton of space (great for families or groups), and the staff was super friendly. They took time to talk with me and shared the Brandon location opened in 2018, and that they had to complete special training/certifications to even qualify to buy and operate that oven. You can tell it's a family-run business with real pride and passion behind what they're doing. Even the pizza box is a cool touch--nice branding and attention to detail. Only small critique: I just wish The Butcher's Pizza had a little more topping coverage. Flavor was great just could've used a bit more "loaded" factor for a butcher-style pie. Overall: solid pizza, amazing crust, great people, and a clean, welcoming spot. I'll definitely be back.

    When I was little, watching "The Love Boat" on Saturday nights and eating frozen pizza with my…read moresister, I dreamed that my future Saturday nights would be coming to places like this. Good food, immersive environment, smooth jazz-yes, this was worth growing up for. Joia is comfy and casual enough for the family-but also sleek and sophisticated enough for date night or girls night out. It has a roomy bar area to the left when you come in, with extra high tops. I almost sat there-but since it was my first visit, I opted for the dining room-which is actually several different areas, making the space even more inviting and sort of intimate. I'm clearly crushing on the vibe of this place... and the food lives up to the atmosphere. The complimentary bread is so tasty you don't even need the oil and spices that come with it, but they're tasty, too. I came hungry and ordered the fried cheese as an app. It's excellent... pillowy bites with soft, super shredded cheese on top (like snow). Ohhhh, so good. Now, I'll admit, I was full after this. But Joia has been on my list for *years... and I didn't want to risk not getting the chicken piccata. Ohhhh, I'm so glad I did! It comes with mushrooms and spaghetti with the same lemon sauce. So, so good. My server Sheila was excellent-so friendly and easy to talk to. She made me feel like a regular-and knows the menu inside out. They have a 2-for-1 martini special, Tuesday-Friday, 4-7. Parking is plentiful (Joia is in a shopping plaza, at 301 and Gibsonton) and there's covered patio seating. The live music was so smooth and just the right volume. Honestly, I can't wait to go back. It feels like a special occasion going there, but it's not priced that way. I've gotta bring friends and family here... often.

    My friends and I finally got a chance to try this restaurant. We were so glad that we did! The…read morestaff was kind and we got seated quickly. There's an option to sit at the bar or at the tables they have available. My friends started with Shirley Temple, which they liked. One of them also had the jolly apple martini, which she raved about! They had a great two for one deal, which they have multiple days through throughout the week. We started off with the bruschetta, calamari, and crabcake sliders. All three of the appetizers were a hit at the table! The calamari was cooked to perfection. The crab cake sliders were bursting with flavor. We then moved on to our entrées, which were spaghetti, gnocchi with vodka sauce, and Margherita pizza. We all enjoyed our flavorful meals for the most part. The only downside would be the gnocchi with the vodka sauce. They don't give you much gnocchi, but there's a lot of sauce. The gnocchi normally comes in a Bolognese meat sauce, but because I don't eat meat, I asked for a different sauce not knowing I would be charged for it, and the unfortunately the waitress never stated that. I wasn't too fond of that since it didn't have meat, which means I was charged for both sauces. Other than that, it was a good experience, and hope to go back again one day.
