Yes, I know it's a chain, but the Mellow Mushroom at Lavista and Briarcliff is just comfortable enough to be homey and just foreign enough to be interesting. Half of the restaurant is situated under an outdoor tent, decked out with colorful lights and visitor photos, adding to the laid-back feel. Pizza comes with fun names like the Holy Shiitake Pie (three types of mushrooms, plus caramelized onions and Mozzarella cheese), Mellowterranean (chicken, onions, bell peppers, olives) and the Mighty Meaty (I'll let you guess what's in that one). Mellow Mushroom also offers a wider-than-normal selection for vegetarians and vegans, with your choice of soy cheese and all the veggies you can eat.
