The plentiful bounty of fresh goodness.
Buck W.

I'm asking myself why don't I come here more often?! Today was madness and I was starving. I dropped in and ordered the California Chicken Salad. As always the service is just extraordinary! Smiling happy faces. Ice cold water station set up while you wait. My order literally took only 4-5 minutes and I was out the door. The salad veggies are fresh. Chicken is plentiful and tasty. It's such a mix of goodness. I ate every bite and feel amazing eating so healthy. AND inexpensive.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I remember the pre-covid days where you can actually dine inside California Chicken Cafe. Now, a majority of their locations just serve food to go and this location is no exception.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I haven't visited this location in awhile and I noticed that they remodeled the inside to have an area where you can place a walk-in order and wait for your order.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Of course, you can still place an drive up order via the app. Pickup is in front of the restaurant on Ventura Blvd. You have to wait in the car line to pick up your order.

One wrap (not even the one I ordered) when the receipt has 2 items, one of which is a salad.
Jamie A.

Ordered a wrap and salad via UberEats. CCC taped my order receipt to someone else's order and UberEats delivered it to me. This isn't the first time this CCC has made an error (or that an UberEats driver didn't bother to check the order). Would recommend ordering from a different location.

Great experience at the Encino location! The food was fresh and delicious. The perfect place for lunch since you order beforehand and they bring it up to your car or you can park and walk in to grab your food. Angie was extremely attentive and kind while i waited for my food inside. Her customer service really made the experience stand out. Definitely coming back!

Looks like a nail but it's not!

I am a huge fan of Sweet Green restaurants for having a good variety of vegan options and being…read moreaffordable priced. While in the area for a workout, I found myself famished and decided to stop here for a quick bite to take home with me. I ordered a bowl to go and it was made promptly although the order didn't end up being completely correct. I ordered a create your own bowl with some wild rice and kale, cucumbers, apples, chickpeas and sweet potatoes. I had also ordered the spicy cashew dressing and pesto vinaigrette but in place of the pesto vinaigrette I was given hot sauce. I double checked the order slip that was placed on the package and it was marked with both dressings, so I know the mistake wasn't on my end. Regardless, all of the veggies were very fresh and the dressing and hot sauce were very flavorful. Everything was portioned well and the meal was very hearty. It was also packaged in a way that made it easy to take with me to go. They have a lovely spacious outdoor patio that I would have loved to sit on, especially since it was a gorgeous day out. The inside and exterior of the restaurant was also very clean and tidy and bright. The service was friendly but it was busy when I came, so it felt like they were very rushed. Parking was very easy in their giant lot that they share with Amazon Fresh and a few other businesses.

Eww. I went to a Sweetgreen about five years ago and should have learned my lesson. But my wife…read morehad never been and I guess she needed to learn a lesson, too. The salads when we got them home were just about inedible. The actual "greens" were OK, I guess. But: -the dressings sucked...bad tastes and so sweet. -both of us bit into chicken pieces that had the crunchy cartilage part. This is BASIC for any restaurant serving chicken... no Crunchy Cartilage Parts! -the assembly line preparation looks like it could be kind of cool and efficient if all the elements were crazy good. Like Chipotle back in the day. But this looked like what it was... children dipping their ladles into not so great-looking bins of ingredients. (The kid serving us was actually quite nice and personable.) -I went and looked at the calories, fats, carbs, etc (online)( and was not impressed. Not how I want to use up that 755 calories for a salad. I predict this place will be gone within a few months of the new Whole Foods going into this complex. I'm so bummed... I just wanted a decent place to grab a decent salad that is walking distance from my house.

Had the answer been no, I would have moved on to my other top choice or second choice or whatever. 20 min later my plate arrived with no white meat. I saw 4 pieces - all small and two were clearly a wing and drumstick and I assume the other was a thigh cut in half. I checked it to see as it was dark in the restaurant by touching it. My mom and I were sharing and she was going to eat the dark meat but the server wouldn't take the food back because I had touched it. Well that was it for my OCD, wait a do you re a serve food? Of course I touched it, I was the plate I ordered and I was looking for the white meat that was supposed to be on the plate. I just wanted her to bring me my proper order by bringing me a breast or tenders. She didn't have to remove the food. That was enough to mar my experience with them. She did bring me a piece finally. Also 7 dollars for drip coffee is outrageous. The drink prices and food prices are in separate worlds. The food pricing and taste were good. The service was mediocre. Because then she pawned us off on her coworker.

Brett went out of her way to make sure our experience was the best possible. She was warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about customer satisfaction. She even gave us extra salad dressing without hesitation, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated touch. While the prices at Mendocino Farms are on the higher side, the quality of the food makes it completely worth it. The salads are original, incredibly tasty, and consistently fantastic. What truly sets this place apart for me is personal: my mother has a chronic illness and often has very little appetite. One of the *only* things she reliably eats--and genuinely enjoys--are the salads here. Even on days when she says she has no appetite at all, the Mendocino Farms salads are a sure thing. That says everything about the care, quality, and flavor of the food. Great service, outstanding management, and food that truly makes a difference. Highly recommended.

Parking in this area is very easy compared to Los Angeles and our server was very polite. It's not a full Service restaurant you order at the counter, they give you a number, and then bring your food. There is not full waiter service. The menu is really large and filled with all sorts of great options and they have a ton of bakery items as well. It's really easy to find gluten-free and regular treats. Inside is also very large with many different table options and they seem to have very quick service because all the tables were returning pretty quickly. For this meal, I chose the soft omelette and thought it was fantastic. It was made just as I liked it and every part about it was great. We also ordered some of the churro pancakes and they were a real great sweet treat. They also have delicious drinks and honestly everything that we ordered was wonderful. I would definitely recommend to anyone in the area and already want to come back again to try some of their lunch options.

Ordering is now done through your phone, or, if you're like me and prefer human interaction, you can walk up to the counter and place your order there. Unfortunately, the traditional waiter-service (although there was a bottle of water on the table) experience is gone, which took away some of the charm that restaurants used to offer. For me, that was a bit of a disappointment. Ironically, I still found myself tipping the cashier. As for the food, there were some highlights. My wife's avocado toast was excellent--fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. My chilaquiles were tasty as well, but not without issues. The eggs were cooked over easy and were much runnier than I would have preferred, and the chicken portion was surprisingly sparse. Overall, the meal was good, but the experience felt a little less personal than it used to. The food still has its moments, but I have to admit, I liked the old Blu Jam better.
