    Prosciutto chicken
    Greg S.

    Mendocino Farms has often times been a go to for us when traveling around the many areas we tend to. Lunch options are great, and the food has always been fresh and well prepared. This specific location has a very challenging parking lot. Interior seating as well as outdoor seating with umbrellas. Service was friendly and helpful. On this occasion we enjoyed the Golden State Cobb salad and the Prosciutto chicken sandwich. Both were great.

    I met the GM and they were just an incredible service worker and made me feel very appreciated and looked out for! The inside of the restaurant felt clean and fancy. The food was definitely worth the wait and price. If you are looking for a nice meal or even a place to study, this is it!

    Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada
    Tanya B.

    When you're trying to eat right a little bit healthier this is a great option! We placed an order online, it wasn't quite ready when I got there.. but not because anyone was slacking... everyone was hustling inside. This place was super busy and super clean. The manager was working her tail off behind the counter right along side everyone else... and everyone was pleasant. This was a great experience for my first time at the Davis location. The salad I had was good... not sure I'm a fan of the crunchy quinoa but I still enjoyed it. I was told the mango Thai salad is delicious so I will try that next time. Great experience!

    One of the chip options, def spicy...seriously. Get them if you like the hot chips

    Happy to see Mendocino farms here! Came in on a Wednesday morning before the lunch rush. Greeted upon entry, our server, Kim, was awesome. Space is clean and open. Service was quick and food was delicious, as per usual for this chain. 'Not so fried chicken' sandwich is still my go to. Fresh ingredients, decent portion. Side-note: I do want to start some sort of petition to bring back that vegan Reuben sandwich though, that was sooo good. If in the area, stop by and enjoy. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. Parking does it a bit wild during the lunch rush, be warned.

    Farm Club sandwich
    Jacquelin S.

    We met old neighbors for lunch at Mendocino Farms. None of us had been there before. Their menu is an electronic screen and a couple of items said "Sold Out" including both soups covering their names, but the cashier said they had the soup and the menu hasn't been updated. Really? You order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. I ordered a half "Not So Fried" Chicken sandwich and a side of their Spicy Curried Couscous. My husband ordered The Farm Club. His sandwich came on seeded honey whole wheat bread that did not hold up to the ingredients. He had pieces of bread and filling all over his platter. It was a bit of a mess. My sandwich came with a side of "golden BBQ sauce" and "mustard remoulade." I tasted them and they were both quite tasty, but did not add either to my sandwich as it was already really moist. The couscous had a nice kick to it. Our friends seemed satisfied with their choices, a salad for her and a wrap for him. It was very noisy inside so made it a bit difficult to carry on a conversation. And let's talk about the parking, it's absolutely atrocious. We arrived at 11:30 a.m. on a Tuesday after the UC Davis quarter had ended. Luckily we were in our EV and were able to get one of the low emission vehicle spaces, though many of those spaces were taken by gas guzzlers. By noon cars were circling and circling looking for spaces. After lunch we walked over to Trader Joe's and the parking situation was even worse. When the several remaining food places open for business soon, it's only going to be worse. Because of the parking situation, we probably will not return to Mendocino Farms and The Collection, though I've already made plans to go there (a different restaurant) for lunch this Thursday with a friend. Just not worth our time.

    Such a clean atmosphere

    The crew was so cool and sweet, Amy was a top notch worker, am definitely coming by more often!

    I'm a sucker for cool packaging

    The Davis location recently catered lunch for our Woodland offices and both the food and the service was 10/10. The delivery driver (Marcus...from Deliver That) arrived prior to the delivery time and I was still in meetings. Marcus called, I shared that I was across campus in meetings and that I'd find someone to meet him to retrieve the order. I reached out to Admin but Marcus was already two steps ahead, having spoken to someone in Admin who took him to the specific conference room (shout out to Marcus!). On to the eats: I enjoyed the Farm Club and oh my goodness, amazing choice! Roasted turkey, smashed avocado, applewood smoked bacon, tomatoes, pickled red onion, greens and a lovely herb aioli. The portions are big. It took me awhile to finish one half and every bite was worth it. The molasses cookie was soft and delicious. Thank you Mendocino Farms, looking forward to you feeding our team again!

    Soup and split sando that split again!

    This space is a great place to have convos and have transcendent dialogue. The food is not bad. It won't gouge out the money from your wallet. I think this place can give jacks or paneras a run for their money! Check 'em out!! Service is friendly. Solid A--

    FINALLY a good fast casual option in Davis!!! After living in SoCal but moving to NorCal I was really happy when we got a Mendocino Farms in Sacramento ...and now a Davis location!! The parking lot is annoying so coming during lunch hour is a parking nightmare but oh well. The food is solid and I hope they can keep up business. Love the veg protein options.

    Been recommended a lot to us bumpy friends so glad it has opened locally. Location and parking are great. Staff member helping us was friendly and patient as we were deciding what to order. Ended up going with the not so fired chicken sandwich and steak chimichurri sandwich. Kids Ofcourse chicken tenders. Sandwiches were delicious , we both tried each others but stuck with what we liked best. Portion size is good too. Kids meal was disappointing as didn't come with fries or chips. Will definitely check out again.

    Peruvian Steak Sandwich
    Joshua S.

    Upon entrance, I was promptly greeted by a cashier at the register. As as a first-time goer, I received plenty of suggestions that would satisfy my spicy cravings. Employees were beyond kind and patient with my navigating of the menu. The dining area was fairly clean, both inside and out, and the overall decor of the place was fairly tidy! The only knock would be one the self-serve station, where the drink aerators and utensils/straws/napkins were nearly empty. The Peruvian Steak was extremely juicy, warm, and was perfectly complimented by the spicy aji amarillo sauce. The sandwich itself wasn't too oily, cheese was freshly melted, and the potato roll tasted quite fresh. When dining at Mendocino's, you definitely get the quality that you pay for, at $15.95 (pre-tax) for the steak sandwich. Although at this price point, the sandwich was on the smaller end. Despite this, the customer service and food quality will be bringing me back soon!

    It's nice, just kind of expensive especially if you're not going to a chain instead of a local business. We got salads for BOGO during their opening and they were tasty, but I don't like salads like that to pay $18. It was filling and balanced, but for $18 I'd want something I couldn't make myself. Service and seating was poor, but they had just opened and were super busy so I don't hold it against them. Probably a decent dining experience by now. Still wouldn't come back for that food!

    Peruvian Sandwich
    Lindsey L.

    I loved the Peruvian Steak Sandwich-- it was so juicy and I always love a little bit of a kick! (im salivating thinking about this sandwich) I wanted to try this place back in SoCal and having it so close to campus is lovely and convenient after grocery shopping. The workers were nice and lovely to talk to. There is an outdoor seating area with a foosball table and a great place to catch up with some friends. Will love to come back again!

The place itself is really nice. The scenery is cute, modern, and has a great vibe, especially for brunch or special occasions. It definitely feels like a spot you would want to celebrate at or take pictures in. However, the food did not live up to my expectations. My potatoes tasted pretty bland and could have used more seasoning. I also ordered pancakes, and they just were not cooked to perfection. They felt slightly overcooked and not as soft or buttery as I was hoping for. I really think they could have added more butter or richness to bring the dish together. The wait was also pretty long, and for me, it did not feel worth it in the end. The overall style reminds me a bit of Crepeville, but with a more modern look. That being said, I would personally rather spend my money at Crepeville and get better quality food. Overall, the atmosphere is really sweet and enjoyable, but the food just did not hit for me this time. Maybe I did not order the right thing, so I might be open to trying it again, but based on this visit, I was not fully impressed.

    Walking around downtown Davis, hunger struck & I was on the prowl for some good eats. A quick Yelp…read moresearch produced Good Friends Hawaiian Poke as a good lead w/ a high rating & relatively healthier fare for takeout. Walking in, it's a bright & clean space. Service ordering at the counter was friendly & patient as I looked over the menu. I eventually zeroed in on the Zesty Flavored Salmon under the Specials/ Rice Bowls. It didn't take long. Handing me the packed to-go container, I immediately noticed its heft. There was a lot of food crammed in there. As soon as I was back in my room, I peeled open the lid to get at the goodies inside. My 1st observation was that there was lot of salmon. A bunch of fresh veggies too. For being on the menu as a rice bowl, there was exactly the right amount of rice underneath everything else. This definitely was not a case of too much rice being added as an empty calories filler. All in all, it was quite tasty. Indeed, even zesty. & enormously filling. Just a massive bowl of delicious salmon/ veg/ rice w/ a sauce that tied it all together. In this economy, Good Friends Hawaiian Poke is a great value. Whenever I'm hungry in Downtown Davis, I'll be back.

    This place was just ok. Not worth the drive from Sacramento…read more The fish was flavorful. I ordered the Sweet Oyster Ahi and the Furikake bomb Ahi bowl for $13.95. The fish was flavorful, but not flavorful enough to eat just with rice. In order to get the extras like seaweed, edamame, etc. you had to pick a "style" for an extra $3.95-$4.25. I don't get why that's just not factored in the price like the other poke bowl spots. Either way, if you wanted to add more toppings for texture and taste you had to pay another $1 for each topping. For three bowls, a prawn appetizer, and two canned drinks was $77. The amount of food we received was good, but the whole experience left me very underwhelmed and felt overpriced.

    I've been around Davis long enough to see this building go through 3 different names!…read more We heard that as its current name it had great food so we decided to try it out. We got there right at opening and the server/hostess, Aurora, greeted us with a warm smile and welcome. There are two choices of spots to sit at - low tables/booths or high top tables with stools. We opted for a low table. I ordered the Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese sandwich with sweet potato fries and my friend ordered the Chinichurri Tri-Tip sandwich with a side salad.

But that should not distract from the yummy Mediterranean food that you can find at Shah's. It's totally worth the hassle with finding a place to park. The interior is on a smaller side, only few tables inside, and the ordering is at the counter. Pick an option from the menu-either a wrap or platter-and the friendly staff will make it in front of you. You just add stuff to it as you go. Think of it as a Middle Eastern Subway or a Chipotle. For the meat options they offer chicken or lamb, but there is also falafel and fish options for those with different dietary needs. We tried both the chicken and lamb, in gyro and platter form. The portions at Shah's are very generous and you can make it even more filling by adding more condiments and toppings to it. Warning: the spicy sauce is actually spicy, not "American spicy", so take that into mind when ordering. I also noticed Shah's also carries burgers and sides such as fries or chicken nuggets, but we did not try that on this visit. For filling and quick meal, Shah's is (still) one of the best options in town. It is great that they're open late and now have a brick-and-mortar presence, so we don't have to wonder where the truck will be parked.
