My wife and I have been to the Mellow Mushroom twice. The first time we walked out due to not receiving any service after being seated for 15 minutes. So, last night we decided to give them a second chance. It appeared that the Mushroom must be a popular place, as it was pretty crowded for a Thursday evening and it was just about an hour after happy hour. So, our expectations began to rise a bit. We had the garlic and cheese pretzels first. I have seen some reviews that raved about the pretzels, but ours were bland, couldn't even taste any garlic...and they were tough, which I thought was kind of strange for a pretzel. We both ordered the Chicken and Cheese hoagie, which wasn't bad, but wasn't great either, very mediocre. I do have to give our waitress credit for being attentive even though she was busy. So, I would give the service a step above average. The reason for that was that the bus boy came by to clear dishes that were no longer being used with a tub. Seriously??? I have never seen wait staff walk around clearing a table that was still seated with a dish tub that would normally stay in the kitchen area. Just left a bad taste in my experience here. I don't think we will be returning. Oh yeah, 6-7 dollars for a bottle of beer? Yes, there is quite a selection, but sorry, I wont pay that for 12 oz bottle of beer, unless it is something a bit more upscale.
