While I like the food at Mellow Mushroom, the service is bad enough to make that not matter so much. I have found I get much better service at the bar than at a table, but it's still not stellar. Upon coming in, the five employees standing at the hostess stand made it seem like they were doing me a favor to stop their conversation and acknowledge me. I ended up going to the bar just to spite them. \n\nThe bartenders were friendly and knowledgeable about the beers, but not the wines. Also, the service was pretty slow - once I got my initial drink, it was hard to get them to look at me again. I will say the vegetarian selection are great and tasted good. The pizza is also pretty good, mainly because of the crust. The wings are lackluster and small. I ordered a cookie to take with me and it took 15 minutes for someone to bring it out. This made me think it was being baked fresh or something but it was just a cold, not-so-special cookie probably made the day before.\n\nThis place competes directly with Duckworth's so my prediction is the one with the better food and service will be the one to survive.
