A very cool atmosphere to dine in. The menu options were great. My wife was accommodated well for her gluten allergy, as the menu was detailed and labeled. The food was excellent and came out at a reasonable time.

Absolutely stellar! Went here for the first time on a Friday night. Ate at the bar and our server, Jess, was so warm and helpful. I’m celiac and was thrilled to see they have a dedicated gluten free menu. We got the ratatouille, Peruvian chicken, salad, and my non-GF partner got the gnocchi. We were impressed with the freshness and flavor of the produce, the tenderness of the chicken, everything down to the flavor and brightness of the salad dressing. The gnocchi was tender and pillowy. Overall the dishes were interesting, flavorful, and had great texture variation. The environment was clean, softly lit, and a pleasant volume. We could chat easily, and no loud music. Prices are very fair and we were surprised our bill was as low as it was. Fantastic value. Really outstanding, and we’ll be back! What a gem of a place, thank you!

My family and I recently celebrated my June birthday at Mellow Mushroom in Wake Forest. The entire staff was friendly, every person we passed spoke to us, and our server Lilly was an absolute delight. We had wings, cheese pizza, a calzone, and a gluten free Kosmic Karma that were all of exceptional quality. Lilly even surprised me with a (free!) birthday pretzel in the shape of a flower because I mentioned how my father and I love lillies and flowers after she introduced herself. That was incredibly thoughtful and it honestly made my day. My dad wasn't half way through lunch and was making plans to return for his own birthday.. in April.. but I'm willing to bet we make it back to see you guys before then! Thank you Lilly and thank you Mellow Mushroom! ❤️ 🍄 🍕

Our server Rosemary was friendly and attentive to my allergies. I was excited to learn their chips are fried in a dedicated fryer that's gluten free. I had the Pastor tacos which were gluten free and dairy free, they were great!

I am so pleasantly surprised by this place! The atmosphere reminds me of Chipotle a bit, but it's not an assembly line. The mac-and-cheese is absolutely delicious. And we got all gluten free for my mom, and it was also delicious. If I hadn't known it was gf, I wouldn't have been able to tell. Staff is very friendly. Highly, highly recommend!

I’m updating this review after the staff contacted me and were more than willing to improve my overall experience. I love trying new sushi restaurants and although the sushi rolls I ordered were not as tasty as I had hoped, I was contacted by someone at the restaurant who was friendly and apologized. I have a gluten intolerance and when I called to ask which rolls were gluten free, the lady who answered the phone did her best to answer my questions. I also ordered Tom yum soup which was good. The people who work here seem to genuinely care about your experience when visiting.

Been coming here for almost 8 years under the previous owner and George has done a great job taking it to the next level - the food is always great, the Italian dinners are not over salty which is a good thing, his Pizza is top notch and always has been (if you've never tried, get a large plain for $10.99 on Monday, you'll be impressed!) and they even offer a wonderful 14" gluten free crust now which is the perfect balance of thinner than a NY style but still crispy - Violet and her mom Betty work behind the counter and as waitresses - they are wonderful and greet you with a smile even though it seems to be always busy and firing on all cylinders inside - best pizza in town and dare I say one of the top pies in Wake County - keep up the great work to George and the hardworking good people in your restaurant and wish you continued success!

The kitchen is dirty. Proper cleaning of dishes is not followed. Sandwiches put on dirty pans to heat up. Brownies are from a box. They claim to have gluten free options but do not use different utensils for this, lots of cross contamination. Use dirty rags to wipe down tables and counters. Never saw employees wash hands.

Had a great experience here with Kaitlyn. I'm allergic to gluten, and as soon as I mentioned that, she changed her gloves and took extra precautions to make sure things were safe for me. It's always stressful when I eat out, but with someone like her, giving me a list of foods that were safe and making sure there wasn't any cross contamination I feel safe returning here! It was delicious and I didn't get sick. Thanks again!

We grabbed a coffee to go. The offer oatmilk and almond milk as their non-dairy options. Most of their syrups are vegan as well. They had some pastry choices, but none of them were gluten free. However, they did have some Big Spoon bars, which are gluten free, but have raw honey in them, so some vegans may not partake. Good atmosphere and great service. A little small with regard to outdoor seating and could use some gluten free vegan pastry options to get them 5 stars in my book. Overall, a good local place to check out if you're in the area.
