    Not so fried chicken sandwich with mustard
    Rachael E.

    Best sandwich ever omg!!! I am obsessed with the food here. Great atmosphere and great service. We will definitely be back!.

    Dominic K.

    Great little healthy lunch spot. The steak sandwich was out of this world, I'll definitely be back for this. The crunch my rice salad was incredibly tasty too. Seating is a little limited so watch out for the lunch hour rush.

    This is where U line up to wait to order next

    I came in for my 1st time today during late lunch hour, I ordered Vegan Caprese w/extra mozzarella & vegan Banh Mi. LET ME TELL U, THEY TOAST THE BREAD TO PERFECTION!! Crispy, crunchy on outside, BUUUUT; not too hard or chewy, but also soft on the inside. If U are a textured person... U WILL HELLA LOVE THIS!! Fair warning, the sandwiches are messy, buuuuut... in a good way!!! The sauces are not over the top to take over flavor but being enough on the table to provide the flavors that doesn't over take the bread nor make it go soggy. I really am impressed that I came back to order an extra Vegan BANH MI to go bcuz its tangy & sweet, plus my husband & daughter needed to try this place out!! Don't get me wrong, the Caprese is also chef's kiss. But it has more or a pizza like taste when eating it & I want my family to try the Banh Mi more since we are more of Asian foods that we consume more of at home.. Now, if this restaurant went next level, I wouldn't mind a bulgogi korean BBQ sandwich with perilla leaf, but I think I am asking too much! I met Kai, the manager of this establishment when I came back for my 2nd visit on same day to order the sandwiches, he was truly helpful and offered so much. Felt great as a customer to receive that kind of treatment. He had myself & my daughters try their in-house made lemonade. See photos for reference. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND POM MINT LEM!! LOL I am too lazy to type the whole thing but again, see photos for reference. I also like how they bag the order! U order more than 1 sandwich but they individually bag em then put them in 1 main bag!! As a person with OCD, this was seriously CHEF'S KISS!! I love that they really take care of their customers and i will definitely be returning again!!! Very affordable sandwiches too and the ambiance is perfect! Music played at the right volume, music jazz vibes & seated where BJ's is adjacent from us.

    '"Not So Fried" Chicken
    Tara T.

    Oh eeemmm geeee. So delicious. I ordered 'to go' on a Sunday afternoon. Wait was 20 min but food was ready in 15 min. I decided to eat there. Restaurant is very clean. Employees -- great customer service and prompt getting orders out/helping customers. I got the 'Not So Fried' Chicken Sandwich which came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. I also got the in house homemade ice tea -- yum! I'd def order again and I'd def eat here again -- the outdoor patio is so cute and cozy as well.

    Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada

    Vegan review- my first time a few days ago and I am glad I stopped by. I ordered the avocado salad and it was amazing! You can order it in a bowl or a wrap but I was told their wrap is not vegan so I got the bowl. 10/10 coming back for it. Plenty of seating inside. You order and pay upfront and food is brought to you.

    Vegan Banh Mi

    Mendocino Farms is one of my favorites, and this location did not disappoint. Their avocado salad and vegan bahn mi are must-orders - I always come back for both. What really stood out here was the outdoor seating area: heaters overhead, warm ambient lighting all around, and a relaxed vibe that made it easy to hang out there. The staff were attentive and friendly, and the food was as good as ever. A solid visit all around!

    I wanted to love this sandwich. I really did. I walked in hopeful, hungry, and fully ready for something that would hit the spot. Instead, I got... this minimalist masterpiece that somehow left me both impressed and betrayed. Let's start with the bread. It looks amazing at first golden, crisp, promising. But one bite in and suddenly I'm in a full-on jaw workout. There's "toasty," and then there's "did this bread take a personal vendetta against my mouth?" Crunchy is great. This felt like I needed a waiver. Now, the star of the show: a single, solitary slice of turkey. One. Uno. Just vibing in there like it showed up early and nobody else came to the party. I kept looking around the sandwich like, "Is there more hiding somewhere? A sequel? A director's cut?" Nope. That one slice is carrying the entire protein department on its back, and honestly... it looks tired. The rest of the cast includes a chunky tomato that's doing a lot of heavy lifting (respect), some greens that seem to be actively trying to escape, and a swipe of something green avocado, I think? that's just trying to keep morale up. But the balance? Completely off. Every bite is a gamble. Bread, bread, bread... surprise tomato... back to bread... a whisper of turkey if you're lucky. And structurally? This thing has zero loyalty. The second you pick it up, ingredients start falling out like they've been waiting for their chance to leave. By the time I was halfway through, it looked like the sandwich had already eaten itself. Flavor-wise, it's not bad it's just confusing. Nothing really comes together. It's like everyone showed up with good intentions but no plan. I didn't need a life-changing sandwich. I just needed one that made sense. Instead, I got something that made me question my expectations, my choices, and briefly... reality. Would I come back? Maybe... if I wanted to experience what it's like to pay for bread with a side of emotional growth. 1 star: one for the bread's ambition, and none for that lone slice of turkey doing its best under impossible circumstances.

    Peach salad, so amazing.
    J T.

    TO DIE FOR! Ok I am a foodie. This place is amazing, the salads are sooo fresh and yummy, the home made drinks are the best I've ever had anywhere... The tomato bisque is mouth watering and the staff are friendly and sweet. Helpful and polite.. much more so than any similar places... Do not miss out, this is a must go to.. Yes not cheap but you will pay more for fresh quality ingredients. Try the pomegranate drink, YUM!!!!!!!

    I ordered the chimichurri steak and bacon sandwich with the lemon chick soup some chips and a drink. All of his was right around $40. It then took 36 minutes to get it. They didn't bring the soup out first or anything. It was crowded with lunch. But that just seemed like an inordinately long wait for a soup and sandwich. The soup was tasty. And the sandwich was pretty good.

    Love Mendocino Farms! I always get their banh mi and this one is way better than the one by my house! Double the size! Yummmmmmm.

    Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada with chicken
    Sarah S.

    We ordered ahead and our order wasn't ready until 15 minutes after it said it would be ready. It was a busy Sunday afternoon so understandable but not ideal when in a time crunch with little kids. My husband ordered the not so fried chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The avocado quinoa ensalada with chicken is always a hit also- I love it. The kids pepperoni pizza was so bad. It was so dry- not sauce at all- dry toast with cheese and pepperoni on top. Definitely needed a sauce in it or a dipping sauce. There was lots of seating- indoors and outdoors.

    Medium size Kale salad
    Margot R.

    I really do enjoy some of their items. I wish they kept the pita crunch salad. I really liked it. They have seasonal items that come and go. Sometimes their everyday items are out of stock, which isn't so great. But they have been pretty consistent for quality. We've done takeout and eat in. The place was clean and the staff were nice. The food is a little slower to be ready than some other places, but it is still done in a reasonable timeframe. I recommend this place to others.

    Half Sandwich and Curried Pasta Salad
    Rayce M.

    Mendocino Farms was a quick and easy lunch stop on our way through Roseville. I loved the healthy offerings and house made beverages! We ordered a few salads and a half sandwich with side as well as a kids pizza. The food is good here, but nothing spectacular. I did feel that it took while for food to come out- especially for a fast-casual place, but the employees were super friendly. I really appreciated the lack of a soda fountain and instead a variety of teas and lemonades. You don't often see that. I also think that the pricing here is great for a quick and healthy bite for lunch. Enjoy!

    From someone who's been in the industry with the same type of food for at least 25 years I can say…read morethat everything was fresh high-quality, delicious, including, but not limited to the sandwiches Salads and the hummus was absolutely delicious with the right amount of cumin....

    Disappointing Experience Due to Food Safety Concern…read more I visited this restaurant on Wednesday for lunch. This was actually my second time dining here. My first visit was pleasant, which is why I decided to come back. This time, I ordered what I believe was the tri-tip steak wrap. As I was finishing the first half of my wrap, I noticed a dead fly in my food. Needless to say, I was shocked and immediately lost my appetite. I walked to the front and asked to speak with a manager. The cashier who helped me was very friendly and professional. I explained the situation to her, and she relayed it to the manager. While I do appreciate that they refunded my meal, what disappointed me most was the manager's response. He never came over to speak with me, apologize, or acknowledge the situation directly. From where I was standing, he appeared visibly disturbed when informed, but he simply instructed the cashier to issue a refund and never addressed me as the customer. I understand that mistakes happen and that it was a busy lunch rush. However, finding a fly in a meal is a serious food safety issue, and I believe a manager or owner should take a moment to personally speak with the customer, show concern, and offer an apology. A little empathy would have gone a long way. The refund was appreciated, but the lack of acknowledgment and customer care left a much stronger impression than the refund itself. Unfortunately, after this experience, I'm hesitant to return.

I've never seen food move through me with such speed and determination. Let's just say the bowl made a return appearance faster than I expected, and it wasn't pretty. To be fair, there are currently public health warnings about certain produce, including vegetables, berries, and cilantro, so I can't say with certainty what caused it. If any of those ingredients were involved, that could be the culprit. Either way, this restaurant should take a hard look at its ingredients, suppliers, and food safety practices to make sure everything they're serving is fresh and safe. The bowl tasted fine going down, but the aftermath was unbearable. I hope this was an isolated incident, but no customer should be spending the next hour making emergency trips to the bathroom after a meal. I sincerely hope the restaurant investigates and ensures their ingredients are safe, because this experience was one I'd rather never repeat.

There was plenty of seating inside, and the restaurant had a nice casual atmosphere. They were out of the spinach tortilla, but I was given four other tortilla options and chose the garlic herb. My order was ready really quickly, probably within about five minutes. The Chicken Caesar Wrap is made with lemon-peppered chicken, grape tomatoes, red onion, shaved Parmesan cheese, green leaf lettuce, and house-made Caesar dressing. The wrap was absolutely delicious and bursting with flavor. I usually love croutons in a Caesar salad and thought I might miss them since this wrap doesn't have any, but there was so much flavor going on that I honestly didn't miss them at all. The lemon-peppered chicken especially added a lot of flavor, and the garlic herb tortilla was a great choice. It was also very filling. I was completely satisfied after eating just half of the wrap and saved the other half for later. I also really appreciate that Garden of Eat'n publishes its nutrition information online. I was genuinely surprised to see that the entire Chicken Caesar Wrap is only 515 calories, which is pretty impressive for something this flavorful and filling. My only complaint is the price. At $16.75, the wrap is definitely on the expensive side, especially since it doesn't come with a drink or any sides. It was very good, but almost $18 for a wrap by itself feels a little steep. I think it would be a better value if it were a few dollars cheaper or included a small side. Overall, I really enjoyed it. The food was fresh, flavorful, filling, and came out quickly. I would definitely come back, but the price keeps it at 4/5 stars for me.
