Mellow Mushroom brings gluten-free pizza to Columbus

Mellow Mushroom opened the Columbus location last year, however, they did not start offering gluten-free pizza until the past few weeks.  The gluten-free pizza was first offered in North Carolina as a test market item and has apparently done very well.  

The gluten-free pizza comes in one size only - medium.  The medium is a 14-inch pizza which feeds 2 people, maybe 3 if those people have smaller appetites.  My son and I split a cheese pizza, with red (tomato) base.  I also added Roma tomatoes to my side.  The pizza cost $11.50 plus $1.75 per topping.  The only exceptions are chicken and steak and they each count as 2 toppings or $3.50.  In addition to gluten-free pizza, Mellow Mushroom also offers Bard's Tale gluten-free beer.  Most of the toppings are gluten-free, but be sure to check with your server for the list.  Great care is taken by Mellow Mushroom to minimize cross-contamination.  The pizzas are prepared in a separate area of the restaurant, down to ingredients coming from a gluten-free line, not the line where the "regular" pizzas are prepared.  The pizza is outstanding!  The crust is thin and chewy - not crumbly in the least.  Two thumbs up!  

Mellow Mushroom is located at 2170 Polaris Parkway, Columbus, Ohio 43240.  (614) 885-6355.  Orders can be placed over the phone for pick-up or there is plenty of space inside the restaurant or on the patio for dining in.  

Mellow Mushroom joins many other restaurants now serving gluten-free pizza in the Columbus area.  BJ's Brewhouse, Uno's Chicago Grill, Z Pizza and Boston's Gourmet Pizza are just some of he places in Columbus serving gluten-free pizza.
