Really good fresh sandwiches and salads. This place isn’t exactly fast but mostly I’ve been here when it was a little busy. Not today and it took a little over 10 mins for just one sandwich. But the food is definitely pretty good.

They’ve gotten my online order wrong on two separate occasions. Last time was simply the wrong bread on my sandwich. This time they omitted the avocado and bacon on my Farm Club “salad style.” Pricey, especially when items are omitted.

The not so fried chicken sandwich is pretty yummy. Worth trying but it is certainly overpriced. My biggest gripe and the reason for three stars is the lack of consistency. If you order to go your sandwich will be smaller. Below is the exact same order on different days. On in person and one to go.

Food is decent. Wife didn’t like the strawberry salad as much. Won’t come back due to being way overpriced. One salad, one sandwich, bag chips, medium drink and small side dish over $40…

Ordered food for take out, sat outside while waiting and scanned the QR code for the food to be brought out. After more than 40 minutes, walked in to check on it, and it had been ready. I value my time, especially when ordering takeout. I cannot recommend restaurants that say they have services they cannot actually maintain

Somewhat disappointed in our first eating experience at Mendocino Farms. I gave a 20% tip and we ate inside. My wife and I both got soup and sandwich. The sandwich was good. The soup was so so (not much flavor) and very small portion. Table was dirty, trash on the floor. Seats were very hard. Inside had a very cold atmosphere. No one ever came over to ask how we liked the food or if we needed anything else. They had a lot of people behind the counter chit chatting. This was like an upscale fast food restaurant. Next time (if we go back) we will do take-out without a tip.

Love! Excellent quality food. I try to look for healthy , quick foods for my picky 3 year old after school and he loves the chicken tenders! This location is so well managed. I look forward to ordering from here. The manager and staff make this place first class.

Went here for the first time and the food was delicious and fresh, location was clean/cute/ ready, and the service was amazing. Francisco went above and beyond to make us want to come back! Highly recommend as a scrumptious lunch or dinner spot- we all even had leftovers!

I’m a fan of Mendocino farms and have frequented the one in La Jolla. I’m thrilled there is now one in Encinitas! So far the food as been consistently good and reliable. It’s one of the most streamline pickup experiences that I’ve had at a quick-service restaurant – they never seem to miss a beat. My husband loves the Bahn Mi sandwich and I love the Mrs. Goldfarb’s Unreal Ruben. It’s vegan and delicious. I only wish they’d bring back their other MVP – “The Impossibly Good Burger” – hopefully it will grace the menu again sometime soon. Nonetheless I highly recommend this spot for a hearty and flavorful sandwich.
