We’ve eaten here and other Mellow Mushrooms on several occasions and it’s been fine but today, they told me that the only toppings that were gf were the onions and spinach. When asked further they said the others were in general populations now and nothing they could promise would be gf. We asked if they had any fresh containers etc and they said no. The manager came over and asked if it was just a preference or allergy and I said celiac and he admitted he was ignorant to what that means. I don’t know if things have changed or if it was a bad manager on a bad day. But this location at least is not celiac friendly, really.

Mellow takes gluten cross contamination pretty seriously, based on what I've heard from people that work there. We got our daughter the GF pepperoni pizza. She likes it alot. No reactions. We've also successfully ordered from the 5 points location.

The gluten-free area is a small kitchen itself. The Staff has all been well-versed in Gluten-Free and cross-contamination. I have multiple anaphylactic allergies. I have never had a bad experience there.

They have an online Allergy reference. Can you put the AllergyEats in and they tell you what’s available. Not always available at each restaurant. There are a variety of salads meat and vegetarian dishes and outstanding pizza.

I am allergic to several other food categories. They have always managed to find a way to make me what a variety of foods in a way that was appetizing and visually pleasing.

My pizza was very good. Mellow Mushroom always does a great job! It may cost a little more (all of their pizzas do) but it's worth it.

The pizza was disgusting and was $20 for about 4 slices! The gf pizza also takes longer to make than the regular pizza! It took 40 minutes for us to recieve it! Not worth it!

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.

Their GF pizza is always great. I usually get the Mighty Meaty. I’ve never had issues here. They also always have Bold Rock on tap.
