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.

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.

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!

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!

It was something we fussed at her about lol so my son and I decided to have cheeseburgers in her honor. Craft Bar was recommended when I searched best burger on Yelp, so we gave it a try. We were able to be seated pretty immediately and our serve came to wait on us quickly! I ordered the Black and Blue burger with sweet potatoes waffle fried, and my son ordered a bacon cheeseburger with regular fries. I got my burger with a little pink, and it was cooked to perfection! Sometimes I am hesitant to get pink because it's been to raw. The burger was not only cooked to perfection, I really loved the bleu cheese sauce and grilled onions. The waffle fries with the cinnamon/brown sugar sauce were great as well. My son also really enjoyed his burger, but he did say his fries tasted like shrimp. I tasted them, and they didn't taste like shrimp but they did have a distinct taste. I can't really describe it, but I didn't like it. Otherwise we had a great visit, one of the best burgers I've had, and really good, quick service! I am sure we were in and out in under an hour with everything still being super fresh!

The food was…read moreabsolutely delicious the deviled eggs in particular were a standout, and everyone at our table raved about them. The bartender was wonderful -- warm, attentive, and happy to help even when several of us came up to order directly at the bar. Our two servers were also doing a great job under pressure; we came in as a large group all at once, and it was clear the restaurant was a bit understaffed for the volume that night. They handled it with grace, and a few small hiccups were completely understandable given the circumstances. The one real issue was management. Whoever was running the floor that night seemed far more stressed than anyone else on staff -- tense, unapproachable, and noticeably short with the servers, even though they were working hard and doing nothing wrong. It genuinely affected the mood on the floor. I'd encourage the owner to look into additional training for whoever is in that role, or consider whether they're the right fit for managing front-of-house during busy nights -- because the rest of the staff clearly deserves better support than that. Everything else about the evening reflected real care and hospitality, and I'd happily come back.

You would never suspect the great atmosphere of this venue from the location. But the charm of the place really isn't the story.

Definitely coming back.

Both were very pleasant. I ordered the original charburger, no pickles or lettuce and some sweet potato fries. I like that they have a few side options besides just fries. They also have fried green beans and onion rings! I didn't wait long for my food at all and everything was very fresh! Although they gave us one of the tokens that vibrate when your order is ready, Edgar was already bringing my food to me when the token went off. Both times I have been in, the restaurant was very clean and smelled fresh compared to other fast food places. Even the condiment and drink areas are kept clean and well stocked. I really like that their bathrooms are "all gender!" The option to check out with a cashier or using their self-checkout kiosk is nice too. I have had Habit's burgers, chicken sandwich, and salad along with all of their side options, and I think they have a good thing going. If you're looking for quality food, a clean establishment, and good service without going into a traditional sit down restaurant, Habit is a good place to visit! They definitely beat out McDonalds, Wendy's, and BK for sure in quality, cleanliness, and service!

Unfortunately, today just made me mad, the level of incompetence of their workers are destroying this brand. I was waiting for an hour and my food was not ready, i was observing the cooks while they had their airpods on and were not supporting the manager in the line, while the manager was managing the intense amount of complaints. the cooks just kept pushing out food with no quality. burnt patties, onions that are burnt and fries that are cold and soggy. i paid for my meal and did not get anything but a 21 dollar gift card. i told them to not prepare my meal and just cancel it. i took a peek of the grill and it look like it was unsanitary. i feel bad for the owner of this franchise cause this will cause you to loose money. I recommend having quality control and firing your inconpetent employees and hiring better ones that are properly trained.

Ladies if you look good he might let you slide on free items (I've seen it myself) but fellas he's gonna hassle you even for sour cream if you don't tip him enough to his satisfaction and then complain to your face about it if you're a regular. To those that care: The specific incident that caused my review was I had went in on a tuesday for their "taco Tuesday" special. Now because I work by the oceanfront I frequent this place. I've been told they aren't supposed to let you walk out with to go orders on their taco Tuesday, but if I pay for and eat some of my food who is this manager to say I can't leave with a to go box(which in most cases I have), but I digress. I tried to do it today and the manager comes to me with a nasty attitude over me not tipping enough for his standards telling me I can't take my food to go because he doesn't feel I tip enough and "what's a 5 dollar tip gonna do for him". Keep in mind I told him I'm not ordering food for just myself I sometimes take lunch orders from work which is never more than 5 to go small tacos. I've never been rude to this man I'm a quiet person so I usually order wait and leave. I work for a reputable company that sees a lot of tourism and I often recommended this spot to our guests but due to this situation I will be advising people to avoid this place if you're not just going to drink at the end of the night on The Weekend. In the specific event the owner of the restaurant was there and confirmed they weren't supposed to be doing to go tacos which I can respect. What I dont respect is the manager picking and choosing when he wants to follow the rules of the establishment for his own gain.
