Mendocino Farms is an excellent spot for fresh, healthy food! I loved the atmosphere inside--it has a great vibe--and the staff was friendly and accommodating from the moment I walked in, even with my multiple requests. I ordered the Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada, and it was an absolute flavor explosion. The Superfood Krunchies added the perfect texture and crunch, and I chose to add chicken, which was thinly sliced and mixed beautifully throughout the salad. My daughter enjoyed the kids' grilled cheese with apple slices, which was the perfect meal for her. I also have to rave about the guava lemonade and the green juice--both were incredibly refreshing and delicious! If you're looking for a fresh, healthy meal with generous portions and outstanding service, I highly recommend Mendocino Farms. We'll definitely be back! read more

My wife and I really enjoyed our meal here. We came on a Tuesday at 11:00 in the morning. I quickly noticed how clean the place looked. The counters, floors, windows all looked good. We looked at the digital menu and quickly made our decision. The employee that took our order was very friendly and answered a couple questions we had. I ended up getting the chicken parm sandwich dip. It was much better than I expected. The chicken pieces were tender and flavor. The cheese was the perfect melty gooey texture that I craved. The sauce was fantastic and the best part is the extra cup they give you to dip. Come give them a try. read more

(Updated review: 5-star review 10/7/24) I eat here a lot! Because I love the food and the fabulous customer service. Thank you, Mendocino Farms, for always providing such delicious, satisfying, healthy, and creative food items from which to choose! And it goes without saying the alcohol picks are local and from well-crafted vendors! Still loving the Hang time Pinot! Yum! I especially enjoy being treated like a VIP no matter who is taking my order when I walk in. That is soooo awesome. Every team member is dedicated to you, the public, as their #1 priority. Check out the wide assortment of fabulous sandwiches, hot or cold and the salads/soups. A generous and tasty kid's menu too. Family friendly, vegan and vegetarian options. You have so many choices. My new favorite is the Chicken Parm Dip. OMG! Ask for it on toasted ciabitta. Manager extraordinaire, Kayla, turned me on to this. It is SO good! Crispy and just the right amount of heat. Clean and inviting. Outdoor patio. Beautiful lights adorn the outdoor space at dark. Perfect for relaxing and dining. I so enjoy the team of workers. Every single one! Kayla, Jax, Sofia, Amelia, Caleb... thank you all. I always eat happy every single visit!:) read more

Do all mendocino farms have friendly workers? No matter which location i'm at, they always greet you with a smile! I got the small half sandwich combo - pesto chicken and a side of couscous. Lots of flavor and pretty well priced for a small combo meal, bout $13 with tip! This is a large location, with unique and cute grassy booths. You can't go wrong with this place whenever you're craving a nice sandwich or salad. read more

Mendocino Farms - 1/2 Chicken Pesto Caprese and couscous - Salad Near Me - Folsom, California

Lunch at Mendocino Farms is always a solid choice. It's usually busy (for good reason), but the line moves quickly and the staff is consistently friendly and efficient. I had the Farm Club sandwich and my daughter ordered the Chicken Pesto Caprese -- both were fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients, and everything feels thoughtfully put together. They also offer a nice selection of lemonades and tea which is a fun change from the usual drink options and fits well with their fresh, wholesome vibe. Great spot for a casual lunch that still feels a little elevated. We'll definitely keep coming back! read more

Headline: Mendocino Farms in Folsom? Yes please! Location: My experience with Mendocino Farms has been the midtown location and one of the places that we always see to get sandwiches to go. Great to see one not that far from Palladio and just off the freeway into the foothills. Lots of parking around the area and just off Bidwell. Service: Staff was friendly and attentive. They have QR codes at the tables so that the servers know where to bring your food. Vibe: Nice clean location with lots of seating inside and outside of the location. Bright colors and airy. Food: I decided to go a little adventurous with my food this time and tried out the Veggie Banh Mi. I've been trying to go with something that sounded more healthy. The sandwich was surprisingly good. Nice toasted bun and the Tofu was well prepared. The pickled veggies tasted great. Overall a great sandwich! Defintely worth a stop if you are looking for fresh sandwiches and salads! read more

Mendocino Farms - The Farmhouse Ranch Salad - Salad Near Me - Folsom, California

Walt from Walt's Adventures still in the Folsom area but now at the Mendocino Farms eatery. This location for this restaurant chain has both indoor and outdoor dining. The main dishes include sandwiches and soups and salads. I was complexed when I found that the menus failed to serve sodas. Instead, they were replaced by the Farms selection of beverages... served in their small plastic cups. Even the "Golden Arches" have paper cups for the environment. I find it ideal for lunchtime desires. However, dinner is another story. I admit that I have never felt so... unwanted in a restaurant. We arrived well over 1hour before closing. The workers mopped the floors, fixed the shades and, as such, made us feel uncomfortable and unwanted. The food was ok where the presentation and the taste was concerned. It is my hope that this Mendocino Farms and their routines are an abnormality. If arriving at one you see small non-environmentally friendly cups, I would recommend traveling elsewhere. read more

Nice big patio outside. Very clean benches and tables with a little bit of shade during the lunch hour. I also see heaters for the colder weather. Looks cozy. Inside is very clean and spacious. Customer service was excellent, from the ordering to the lady who dropped off our food. I ordered my usual Greek lemon chicken farro soup! They don't have it all the time and when they do, it's a must for me! I tried their Turkey Avocado Salad Verse Sandwich, it was pretty good. The sourdough bread was buttered and toasted perfectly, and fluffy. I would love to come back when in the area. read more

This was my first time at Mendocino Farms, and I was helped by Marilyn. She was amazing, super friendly and helpful. I asked her about the most popular items, and she shared a few before telling me her favorite was the Turkey Avo Salsa Verde sandwich. I went with her recommendation, and it was fantastic, really good flavor. The salsa on the side adds a nice spicy kick to it. Definitely found my go-to order, though I want to try the "Not So Fried" Chicken on my next visit. I also tried their house-made Guava Lemonade, which was delicious. Shout out to Marilyn again, her personality and friendliness truly enhanced the whole experience. read more

I wanted to give this place 5 stars, BUT, service was backed up and we had to wait 40+ minutes for our mobile order. We were in the parking lot, decided we wanted salad for the grown ups and chicken tenders for the kids. Wait time showed 32 minutes of when our order would be ready. We decided to go inside Mendo and wait. All of the staff was working hard but you could tell, they were understaffed for the lunch rush. I do appreciate they had some one walking, cleaning tables and asking guests if they needed help with anything. Don't remember that gentlemen's name but he was very friendly and attentive. Food was consistent with the other Mendocino Farm locations we frequently visit in the Bay Area. read more

Stopped here on our way to view a new home development in Folsom. I had the half farm club and Greek lemon chicken soup. It was perfect. My husband had the spicy Peruvian steak sandwich with chips.

Great food and service. There was a good amount of sandwiches and salads to choose from but I opted for the combo of soup and 1/2 sandwich. I ordered the tomato basil and farm club sandwich. It was the right amount of food and it was very good. The soup was just the right temperature, creamy and delicious. The sandwich was packed with turkey meat and veggies. The pomegranate lemonade and the guava lemonade were both so yummy and refreshing! It's a very open and clean area to dine in and they even had a large area for outdoor seating. read more

Mendocino Farms is a classic small scale chain that I look to when I need a quick and filling lunch. I am surprised I have not left a review yet! Their restaurants are super cute and chic (I love their little cow mascot!). You take your order at the register, find a seat, and wait for your order to be called. Service is usually pretty quick no matter now busy they are. I always go for the chimichurri steak and bacon, or the Peruvian steak sandwich! Both are pretty tasty and always so filling. Their sauces are always so good and I really like their choice of bread. Especially on the chimichurri sandwich. Flavors are always balanced here as well. If you haven't had these sandwiches yet, try it! I like Mendocino Farms, plain and simple. read more

The quinoa superfood salad with chicken was huge, fresh and delicious. I enjoyed every bite. Very nice employees and service was great. My only negative is they have very uncomfortable seating. Metal chairs and stools. No cushions. I really like to be comfortable in a restaurant and wish they had thought about that. read more

We went in and looked at the digital menu on the left wall. A friendly staff greeted us and notified to ask for help if needed. We then placed our orders in the counter. We had our food in less than 10 mins. We ordered a kid's chicken finger meal and cheese sandwich meal. For the grown ups, we ordered the Peruvian steak and chicken pesto caprese sandwiches. They were all delicious. The place is neat and clean, a little too sterile-looking, in my opinion, but I'm there for the food. read more

I looove their vegan options! My favorite is the Impoosible taco salad. It's is sooo good! But I'm sad that many locations no longer carry the impossible chorizo so check before you go! They have some other vegan options as well! Service was very nice as well. read more

Stopped in here recently after a long day of adventure for some sandwiches. We weren't really sure what to expect because we'd never been to a Mendocino Farms location in person. The staff was SO friendly. They offered generously sized samples while trying to decide what drinks to order, and the staff was prompt at making sure tables were clean as people left. The food was all fresh and delicious. We particularly loved the flavor profile of the chimichurri steak and bacon sandwich. (Not pictured) We also ordered a kids menu which came with seemingly fresh battered chicken tenders and apple slices. We felt like all the food was good quality, and really enjoyed our experience here. 10/10 recommend giving them a try next time you're looking for a good, elevated sandwich! read more

I love this place! Quality food! Manager Kayla checked in on us and provided excellent service! I could tell her staff loved her as she spoke to them and the customers...even the door dash drivers! I could eat there every day! Great environment! Thai mango salad, tomato soup and my favorite list goes on and on read more

I order from Mendo quite often as it's one of very few places in Folsom with multiple vegan options (or options that can be made vegan). They're consistent and quick, making them a good go-to on days I don't feel like cooking. read more

Friendly service! My favorite is always the avocado and quinoa salad. We also tried their Peruvian steak sandwich, the flavor was on point! Very thin layer of meat though for $16. read more

This location opened up less than a year ago. If you've been to other Mendocino Farms locations, it's everything you would except. I always appreciate consistency within chain restaurants. Orders are always a bit of a wait, so I would recommend ordering ahead using their app for pick up. It's convenient and easy to use. Service has been great at this location. The times I've dined in, it's nice they served the food directly to my table. My favorite salad is the Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada. I really like the crunch and texture their housemade krunchies do for the salad, and the Chipotle Vinaigrette Dressing is yum too with a little kick. They ask you if you want the dressing tossed for you, which I always take advantage of for no mess and to dig in right away. I've also tried The Impossible Taco Salad, The Modern Caesar Salad, and the Thai Mango Salad. I still like the Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada the best. I wish we didn't have to pay $4 extra to add chicken in it though. For sandwiches, the Chicken Pesto Caprese is my favorite. Another sandwich that's pretty good but I haven't had in a long time is A Sandwich Study of Heat, but I don't see it on the menu right now. Did they get rid of it?! Sad if it's gone, but it was a lot of calories anyway. I also tried the Not So Fried Chicken Sandwich, but I didn't like that one too much. The mustard sauce was not it for me. I haven't tried their cookies or soups but have been told they're pretty good. FYI a lot of their sauces and dressings have a spicy kick to it, so if that's not your thing, definitely ask before ordering because the menu doesn't warn you. read more

I recently moved to the area and wanted to try this restaurant out, so I came with a couple of friends for lunch. We were greeted by the cashier named Francisco who went above and beyond in explaining the menu and giving recommendations. His customer service was amazing. I wanted to commend him for his customer service and the time he took to assist us and I asked for the manager. Devoni came out to greet us and we let him know how amazing the service was and he was so kind and sweet. It's so easy to see where his staff acquire these amazing skills. Devoni and Francisco are the reason people become regular and return customers. We will definitely be coming back. The food was delicious and the service was the best! read more

Ambiance: Nice outdoor patio to sit out on. Chairs were a cheerful alternating blue and white that matched the logo and the interior. Everything about the decor felt fresh and clean. Dogs are welcome on the patio. Service: Counter service. Was easy to order and they brought the food out to us. Food: The Avocado and Quinoa salad was amazing. I was expecting such a healthy order to be a chore but that was not so at all. I could have eaten that salad for a solid week and been happy about it. It was rich from the avocado. It had little crunch in it, not sure what it was but I loved it. Maybe quinoa? The dressing was wonderful. I hope they start selling it by the bottle because I would absolutely buy some. I regret that I don't live closer to this establishment! I know this would be a weekly eat for me if I was close by. Food was so healthy but it didn't sacrifice on flavor at all. read more

I'm so, so excited we get to have a Mendo near us now! Their food is so fresh and tasty. I love that it feels like you're eating an upscale meal, but for an affordable price and in a casual setting. It's a "order at the counter and pick your seat" type of place. This new location in Folsom offers lots of dining space. For a Tuesday afternoon, the place was poppin. Nonetheless, our food came out quickly and we were in and out in about 30 min. My hubby ordered the banh mi sandwich and I had the fried chicken sandwich. Although both sandwiches were packed full of fresh ingredients and flavor, the banh mi was a bit overwhelming. Couldn't put my finger on which ingredient it was, but I would pass next time. The fried chicken sandwich never disappoints though! The texture, the seasoning, the ratio of ingredients is just perfection. Do yourself a favor and pay Mendocino Farms a visit. I'm sure you'll find something you can enjoy. read more

The sandwiches are pee re you good! Food is always fresh and the people working the registers are always really kind. Great service! But always busy so you'll have to wait a while for the food.
