Caesar salad
Gary G.

If you ask 90 different people what their favorite pizza is I'm sure they'll come up with 90 different locations. But mellow mushroom his hands down our favorite pizza in Virginia Beach. Why? The sauce is perfect, the thin crust is perfect, the add-ons are first rate. If you're an anchovy lover, this is the place. Of course they have many different possibilities and some fancier combinations. The room itself is beautiful with high ceilings and lots of nice features. Not your typical pizza parlor. They have a bar with more than a dozen different types of draft beer. They have some nice outdoor seating as well. We sampled some of the other items: salads, sandwiches, but we were not as impressed. Warning: this location gets very busy during the summer months.

Pictured is the mighty meat pizza. It was delicious! A medium had 8 pieces.  They have a nice selection of high rated beers on tap.

The pizza was delicious! Ee had the mighty meat. The medium fed 3 of us perfectly ! We sat at the bar and the service was very friendly and fast. We will definitely be back!

It was crowded and the associate behind the counter seemed overwhelmed and unhappy. My order was rang incorrectly and she handled the situation wrong. A manager did finally show up. The manager was kind and professional. I forgot to take her photo. The food was pretty good. The price was fair. The wait wasn't terrible considering how crowded they were. The establishment was pretty loud in general however it was nice inside.

Mighty Meaty was so blissful.

Mellow Mushroom was one of the only gluten-free options in proper Virginia Beach for my wife, but I found it limited in what she could order, especially with the gluten-free pizzas. The tomato sauce didn't sit well with her. Between that and the mishap with the cocktails, where they brought her a gin refresher and not a gin and tonic, and to where the acidity upset her stomach, it wasn't a good experience for her. Outside of that, the regular, mighty, meaty pizza I had was very good, which was a personal highlight for me. And to be fair, the server did her best to accommodate us. But overall, I found the experience wanting, especially compared to our visits to other Mellow Mushrooms in Florida and South Carolina, where we had better experiences.

Meatballs
Jodie M.

There was so much SPACE. I was out with friends for an event at Seaside Raw Bar then we eventually checked out the Jackalope Festival and our hunger built up so we strolled to Mellow Mushroom. It was the best option because 1. Their seating wasn't as limited as a lot of Oceanfront establishments, so we could easily get seated as a group of 8 and 2. We were craving the Holy Shiitake Pie lol. The pizzas were perfect. I was happy to eat half of it at the restaurant and happy to take the other half home. I LOVED the meatball trio, who knew the combination of sauces would work so well? I like how each Mellow Mushroom restaurant is different but so eclectic with their decor. And last but not least, I'm glad we could just pay via QR code. Will definitely be back because that mushroom pizza is the best thing ever.

Happy hour menu
Tiffany N.

Holler at this happy hour!! Great price on booze and apps. Service at the bar is friendly and fast. Knocking one star off because damn that's an expensive pizza, while it is certainly very tasty, it's a pricey pie. Atill, it's a great place to come and grab a bite you know will be good after a day at the beach.

Baked Wings
Maria G.

This place is a vibe! Went with my family for the holidays and it's spacious and has something for everyone. The menu has pizza, wings, salads, sandwiches and more. I saw gluten free pizza, so that's what I had to go for. The gluten free pizza dough is what you expect, it's not a soft dough but it tastes good. The toppings are delish and have so many variations to create your own. Also tried the wings and it's baked! So are the tator tots. Matter of fact, everything is baked! Nothing is fried. I can appreciate an establishment that has a healthy alternative and can pull off a tasty dish!

Classic crust White pizza with pepperoni, artichoke, onions, and garlic.
Daniel S.

The few times I've been here I've always been very pleased. The atmosphere is pretty cool, got that "mellow" feeling. Our waitress was very friendly. The pizza is soooooo delicious. Couldn't finish it all but that was the plan, looking forward to heating it up later.

super pep
Britt D.

Wanted to start this off by saying the staff was working SO hard! It was so busy and they were working so hard and quickly, they were absolute rock stars! We got the Cloud 9 wings, which were about a 3.5/5, I'd probably get the other flavor next time. However, the Super Pep pizza was FANTASTIC! 5/5! We loved it. Nice staff, clean restaurant, and great food. This is a great spot in ocean front!

Strawberry Shakedown
Zarielle A.

Went here for dinner around 11 pm on a Friday. No wait time; the inside only had a few people sitting while majority of people were sitting outside. Waitress was very friendly and nice. I loved the funky decor inside had a fun ambiance. I decided to try their Strawberry shakedown (10/10) it was different, fizzy, and gave a nice buzz. Also had their Mighty Meaty pizza (10/10) it was fresh, hot, cheesy, and very flavorful. I was craving pizza all day and this really hit the spot for dinner. I was very pleased with dining here. Def returning in the future; so good! My overall rate of experience : 10/10

Visited this mellow mushroom location on a recent trip to Virginia Beach. My party shared a large pizza, and appreciated that we could try two different flavors on one pizza. The potato bacon ranch special was bomb! Service was incredibly slow even though we were seated right away, so be prepared to wait awhile if eating during the rush.

Lemonade
JoAnna C.

Came with my daughter. I know it's off season, but the pizza was awesome. Love that they have gluten- free crust and the lemonade is good. Plenty of seating indoor and outdoor. The waitstaff was not as attentive as I would have liked and didn't bring napkins or silverware. Checked one time after we received our food then to bring the check. Easy access from beachfront.

@MellowVaBeach 3501 Atlantic Avenue Virginia Beach, VA 23451 Sunday - Thursday 11a - 11p Friday - Saturday 11a - 12a Their pizzas made me a fan. I will not lie I was drawn by their aesthetic on the outside but Im sure glad they were more than that. There's something about the texture of their dough, they way they made their pizzas, and how the ingredients made everything so good. I like the fact that there are a lot of choices to choose from and I was able to try 4 different pizzas on 2 pies. My favorites were the Buffalo Pizza and Holy Shiitake. So yeah definitely try them out. You won't regret it! Thank you Mellow Mushroom!

The sizes were recommended and they were huge and more than enough!! I love the build your own pasta so you literally pick your pasta, sauce, protein and veggies. It's like a family style and I would love to go with a group and we all share. They also have a happy hour. I will definitely be back. Now....my 92 year old mothers complaints. 1. It was too cold. We were going to move but they had a big fan blowing and they turned it away from her. Now take that with a grain of salt because the heat in her room is set to 76 and it's April. 2. It was too loud. Since the kitchen is open you can hear the cooks doing cook things. She was irritated by the noises coming from the kitchen but once again....grain of salt. The volume on her TV is at 80 and she can't hear it but can hear the kitchen noises. 3. The seat was too hard. Once again....grain of salt. She is skin and bones but I will bring her something to sit on next time. She actually did enjoy the food but I got the leftovers. :) We will be back.

The ambiance was nice, the open kitchen with the wood fire hearth right at the entrance added a warm cozy feel from the onset. The restaurant was warmly lit but not dark. We were seated immediately in the far left dining area in an elevated booth. After reviewing the menu we settled on the fried deviled eggs and wood fire oysters for starters and the Vincent Vega pizza for dinner. Fried deviled eggs was a first for us and it was so good! The egg white was breaded very lightly and fried and the egg yolk was piped on top with a piece of smoky delicious bacon goodness. It had a nice smoky, bacon-y taste and we devoured them. I only wish you got more than 2 pieces. I think 4 pieces would be better for the price considering it's essentially one egg but I'm not complaining. The wood fire oysters was another hit for us, the serving came with 6 half shell oysters topped with breadcrumbs (light), swimming in butter and fire roasted. I think we ate these even faster than the deviled eggs lol! Would definitely get these again. The pizza also did not disappoint. If you like bacon, mushrooms and creamy Boursin cheese, you'll love this pizza. We added crushed red pepper flakes which added a nice kick. The crust is the star of the show; thin, crispy but still has body and slightly chewy. Yum! That wood fire hearth definitely makes a difference. Overall we had a great experience and will definitely be back! The staff were also very nice and friendly.

The pickled garlic was an excellent addition to the board and the elk salami was fantastic. I had the steak sammy, which was a Sunday Special. It should be on the menu all the time. It was excellent. The fries were crisp and perfectly seasoned. My wife had the pork chop. It was perfectly cooked. Pork can be dry. This was not. Just well done and seasoned to perfection. My son had the steak sammy (like father like son) and his wife had the half chicken. It was all spectacular. So very good. For dessert we shared the cheesecake and the tiramisu bread pudding between the four of us. Everyone was happy. The portions were large so to go boxes were had by all. Special shoutout to Reagan our server. She was exceptional. Made the right recommendations on all things. Timed our orders perfectly and we had just an amazing time Thank you Hearth Wood Fired Cuisine and thank you Reagan for making my Father's day. We cannot wait to come back to visit with you all again!!!!

My boyfriend and I went to Shorebreak for the first US game of the World Cup. As expected, it was an absolute zoo. We didn't have reservations or seats. Somewhat dejected, we approached the packed bar and admittedly, I expected a serious wait before I got a drink. In comes Martina! She almost immediately flagged me over to get a us drink and started my tab. We ended up moving outside and found some seats at the outside bar, so thrilled! Of course, Hannah was quick to take our orders. All was well... then came the rain. It turned into a downpour and we had to rush inside. We wondered about our nacho order while we dripped from the rain, packed into a sea of people. But Hannah found us right away! She got us more drinks and checked on the nachos. She said they were probably cold at this point and insisted that she put them in again. She brought us more drinks and nachos all in the chaos of the night and never forgot about us. At halftime, I realized I needed to close out my tab with Martina at the indoor bar and was dreading it, as it had only gotten more crowded. But once again, immediately upon my return, Martina found me and closed my tab for me. As usual, the food and drinks were delicious. But I really wanted to point out the exemplary service we received (esp by Martina and Hannah) on one of the craziest nights I've ever experienced at Shorebreak!

As an entree, I had the whiskey burger with truffle fries. I really liked the cheese curds; they're a lot flavorful than traditional mozzarella sticks. The house made sangria was really good too! We had to stop ourselves from just sucking it down. The burger is where I had the issue. It was a little on the dry side.... Too well done despite asking for medium. It also wasn't seasoned well. The only flavor rally came from the bbq sauce and onion straws. The truffle fries were good though. The menu said they won't best burger of Virginia Beach, and that was made me get a burger. Not the best burger I've ever had. Next time, I will try the pizza and probably go to the Shore drive location since that is closer to my house. Again, the vibe, service, and scenery was worth the drive.. the food not so much.

I placed an order online for it to be ready by around 7:10 pm on Friday. I got their small meal deal, and ordered their mango habanero wings, a greek salad, and their prosciutto bliss pizza. I was really set on the arugula being on my pizza, but unfortunately I did not check that everything was on there. It was missing both the balsamic drizzle and the arugula, which I was super pissed about. Everything else in the order was correct, but when the main meal is the pizza, it's a real bummer when it's wrong. It also seems like they used bacon instead of prosciutto. The crust was also not exaggerated in the photo, it genuinely was a thick breadstick all around the perimeter. It almost seemed like a stuffed crust, except it was all bread. The center of the pizza, where all the toppings are, was super thin, so I guess that's where all the rest of the dough went. The toppings themselves were hardly there, I think. I couldn't taste the cheese whatsoever. It was practically dissolved into the dough, it just looked like from the top that there was cheese, but it was so flavorless and thin all over it didn't taste like there was any. It didn't seem like they used any sauce either, it was dry. I don't even think they put any caramelized onions on it. At this point, it felt ridiculous to eat it. So, I went out and bought some arugula to put on top and drenched it in balsamic to give it any semblance of flavor. Even the bacon hardly had flavor, and it seemed like they didn't really put a lot on there. This was not the pizza that I remembered from last time. This was not worth spending money on. As far as the rest of the food went, it was average. Salad had everything on it, and the dressing was good. The wings I thought were a bit overcooked and not saucy enough. The sauce itself was good, and had a little kick. Their blue cheese dressing to dip in also had good flavor. After all this, would I come back here? No, if I'm being honest. When you're a pizza place, your pizza should be great, not whatever this fiasco was.
