“ Absolutely FIRE pizza, open late, affordable, and great vegan options. Thank you Mad mUshrOom! Spinelli's needs to take a page out of your book. ”
“ This was my late night college meal right here (1998-2002). Twenty years later, still the best cheesesticks I've ever eaten. The marinara and cheese tasted different from 20 years ago. The employee told me they have since moved location and now use a more premium marinara sauce and upgraded their mozzarella to buffalo. Still has that nostalgic Mad Mushroom flavor and texture, but it is different than my memory serves. Still great! ”
“ Best pizza I have ever had. This is not hyperbole. ”
“ Mad Mushroom is always on point, we order them a lot at work. I work night shift so they are conveniently open late and deliver quick. I’ve always had a good experience with this business and we order from them quite often! ”
“ My family and i went to this location for the first time, and Danielle definitely gave us our first time pizza experience to a whole nother level. Danielle customer service was top noch for sure and had a nice smile. Thank you Danille the 25min drive and food was well worth it. We will be coming back. ”
“ Yummy pizza! A little more expensive than I remember back in my college days, but that was awhile ago. Atmosphere is your typical cozy but bustling pizza joint. Most people do carryout, so you don't have to contend with a lot of diners, which is good because only a handful of booths and tables if you want to dine in. ”
“ Try their cheesestixs with ranch! They're delicious. Their pizza doughs are not bland. When an order is placed online, they're usually ready within 20 mins. ”
“ Awesome place to eat. The country club grinder was amazing. The pizza was as good as it gets and service was fast. Not to mention the workers were super nice and very helpful. This is a must if your in Lexington ”
