Mellow Mushroom Sarasota - The Story

The restaurant’s design is a nod to 1960’s Sarasota. Retro-inspired doors with circular glass panels open to reveal an interior themed around “Fantastic Creatures”. The focal point of the restaurant is a bold floor-to-ceiling mural featuring three people wearing animal masks. The bright, modern color palette from the mural extends throughout the space and to the rest of the space. The exterior of the restaurant is painted in beach colors with a cool, modern twist.

Customer Reviews

I had a feel in this place was going to be great. Excellent staff very friendly and accommodating. We tried two different pizzas at calzone and cheese bread everything was delicious and I highly recommend anything on the menu at least so far. We may or may not be back before our trip is over but I highly recommend this place. You can tell that they're using very fresh ingredients and there is a high quality of detail. My pizza had a excellent distribution of toppings and I really enjoyed that it wasn't overwhelmingly salty like most pizza and restaurant food is in general. 100% recommend this place you won't be disappointed.

Super fresh ingredients, crust is perfect, everything was delicious! We had the pretzel bites with spicy beer cheese and it was so yummy. Our pizza was loaded with toppings, just the right amount of each, and that crust is baked to perfection. There are lots of vegetarian/vegan/GF options as well and I can’t wait to come back and try more items. Service from Alana was outstanding - she’s very knowledgeable on the menu. There’s a large seating area available for dine-in. Cool, funky decor.

Groovy Decor and the staff are super friendly and accommodating. We opted for a build your own pizza with artichoke hearts, spinach, mushrooms and green olives. Great place for vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options.

We have a great time every time we dine in. We had an issue with a pizza being over cooked once and they did everything they could to get a new one out quickly. Everything we have tried there has been excellent. Great flavors, and quality ingredients. The wings are really good too. If you have never been give it a try. The one in Tampa is awesome too!

First time there. Our server, Christina, was super efficient & friendly. She gave us several recommendations & we ordered a Great White pizza. Delicious! They have several vegetarian/vegan/gluten free choices. Ours had lots of cheese on a nice crust, not too thin or too thick. Would definitely go back.
