Mellow Mushroom and it’s not close.

I loved MM when I lived in Georgia, but the pizza at the location in Adams Morgan in DC bordered on inedible, and the location I went to in Phoenix was nothing to write home about.

That’s a shame. There are three in Richmond, and I’ve had consistently good food and drink every time I’ve gone to any of them. But they’re also the only three I’ve been to.

Mellow Mushroom is a strong contender for best chain pizza restaurant IMO. I've never had a bad experience there, but my experience has indeed been with restaurants in the Southeast (such as Georgia and Tennessee), so I can't speak for the locations in states farther away. But I love the food there, it's definitely in a higher league than the main popular chains, although I enjoy those as well.

When I was down there for the solar eclipse, Winchester was a food desert. Frisch's was really the only option. :D

I will also say that Mellow Mushroom is good in the Southeast as well. Same experience with locations in Tennessee and Georgia.
