Our group of 8 visited Mellow Mushroom after a judo tournament at the university. The staff was super friendly and pretty attentive. The decore and food names were amusing. I had no problem bringing high school kids here. I think smaller kids would be fine, too. The whole "Mellow Mushroom" thing isn't offensive or risqué unless you make it that way. I loved my hoagie. I got the full order, and there was tons of meat. My husband got a calzone. Read the ingredients on the menu before you order. His food was super yummy, but not what you would call traditional. My daughter got a small pizza and took a bunch home. Our friends had gluten-free pizza, and they said it was very good...better than most they've had. Parking is the only thing I didn't like, but for being near a university, it was actually better than I expected. They had a small lot with tight spaces. I'd go back again.
