I've literally been eating mellow mushroom since I was 6. it's one of my dad's favorite places that he's been going to since like the 80s. When I found out I was celiac at 17, I just switched crusts. They have one of my favorite gf crusts and their italian sausage is good. I have never gotten sick at this location.

Update: still love mellow, hate this location. I've been glutened at least twice in the past year and my food always comes out 10-15 minutes after my family's. You can wait an extra 45 minutes for a to go order no problem. (That's after its "ready"). I'm done with this location. Paid parking, freezing reataurant... I'll be at Your Pie if y'all need me.

Look the GF pizza is good but I decided to try the GF brownie today and am now throwing up cause they gave me a regular brownie… when I called they said maybe I ordered the wrong thing online and I said nope looking at my order right now it says gluten free brownie. Only reason I’m giving 2 stars is cause the gluten free pizza usually slaps

Dedicated GF line. Only small pizza crust size is available, but delicious. If ordering online, be sure to also call to alert kitchen it is a Celiac GF order. They will take additional precautions to limit cross contamination. There is no space within the online firm to leave a note. All staff I spoke with were knowledgeable about Celiac Disease. Great option for Celiac/safe dining near the Classic Center.

Had the gluten free pizza Monday night and it always takes three days for me to feel sick if it’s contaminated. Right on time exactly three days I had a severe reaction and in so much pain. Must have been cross contaminated while baking it. Will not be trusting to eat here again. (I haven’t been out to dinner since and cooked my own meals so no chance I had a cross contamination with any other food in my house)

I ordered gluten free everything and I’ve been sick all afternoon. The plate I was given had about a thousand cut marks in it & the waitress didn’t use a pen and paper to take my order. I felt like she didn’t really care about getting my order right and clearly neither did the staff. The crust was GF but I don’t think they have a clue about cross contamination. I’ll never eat there again— feeling like this just isn’t worth it.

Had the veg pizza with vegan cheese and added pineapple (pic added). Tasted okay. The usual thin crust gluten free pizza with a gf price upcharge. Pizza tasted okay. You need somewhere to go with non-gf Friends this place is a good choice.

The pizza isn't any better than what you would get from the frozen food department at the grocery store. It is overpriced and dry. I go to Johnny's Pizza on Gaines School Road instead. They have REAL GF pizza's there.

Much better when eating it in person. I’ve never had a bad experience at any mellow mushroom when dining in, but take-out and delivery is 50/50 depending on the location. Unfortunately, for this location, take-out and delivery should be avoided if you cannot have cross-contact. I’ve had to stop ordering and tell family/friends that while yes, we can eat there, please don’t order it for parties.

Ordered a gluten free pizza and have no complaints whatsoever. Amazing taste, and no symptoms after. Server seemed knowledgeable, etc. honestly one of the better GF pizzas I’ve had. Since it’s a chain, always make sure to ensure your dietary needs.

Great GF pizza and vegan cheese option for the dairy free folk! Everything tastes great and I was assured they made GF food separately. The brownie dessert was good too for a frozen and wrapped treat, it tasted like a Little Debbie’s cosmic brownie!

My favorite GF pizza! We eat here at least once a month and I’ve never been sick from it. GF pizza takes longer of a wait, and that’s the only con I have.
