    Fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth a return visit. First time trying Mendocino Farms in Vacaville, and The Kid and I both really enjoyed it. I ordered the Farm Club with a cup of the Lemon Chicken & Farro Soup. The sandwich was fresh and flavorful, and the soup was light but still satisfying--such a good pairing. The Kid had the Chimichurri Steak & Bacon on Grilled Sourdough, and she loved it. The sandwich looked packed with flavor, and the grilled sourdough was a nice touch. They also have a great selection of house-made drinks like passion fruit iced tea, lemonades, and green drinks, so there's plenty to try beyond the sandwiches. Service was great, the food came out fresh, and the menu has so many options that I'm already planning what to try next. Definitely looking forward to coming back and trying one of their full sandwiches next time.

    I doordashed to sandwich to myself, the prosciutto and chicken flatbread I think. Unfortunately they forgot to unwrap the meat before they put it in my sandwich so I got paper it in my bite. Do better!

    Limited time Banh mi sandwich

    Repeat customer and still just as good as the first, second, third time. Portions and quality of both sandwiches and salad were amazing. So fresh! Flavorful. The staff behind the counter is very kind and helpful. I can't rave more about their salad. I've tried a few and this time it's the golden Cobb and the limited time goat summer peaches salad. Both taste so yummy! On point for my palate. It's a bit too cold to eat indoors but outdoors feels perfect and refreshing to have lunch!

    Finally got to check this place out. Very cute place with healthy options. Mostly served sandwiches, salad and soup. I tried one of their sandwiches which were yum. I wish they had sides or healthy chip options for sandwiches. I felt hungry still after my sandwich. Tried one of their cookies which was just okay. It's nice that they serve wine here. Lots of drink options. Service was great. Lots of seating. Great location. It gets packed but service is pretty fast. Will be back to try another sandwich

    Such a cute place to have lunch at. I came here with a couple gal pals and we all enjoyed our time here. The food was tasty, the fresh squeezed juice is a must and the staff are all very welcoming and friendly.

    Always a nice spot to stop in and grab a bite to eat. Staff is always friendly, welcoming and helpful with new menu items. Love the craft soda section and the freshly made aguas. Plenty of parking. This location also has outdoor seating with minimal shade.

    The Seasonal GOAT with Sweet Citrus
    Tanya B.

    We came here yesterday for lunch, it was absolutely beautiful outside which made it a perfect day to sit on the patio. The line was a bit crazy inside it took about 15 minutes to get through it, and then another 20 minutes for food to arrive. So if you're looking for quick... this was not it. However, the staff was friendly and upbeat and the food was delicious! I had the seasonal GOAT with sweet citrus... it is probably my favorite salad. I would have this daily if I could, it was amazing! The flavors were bold the oranges were fresh and super tasty. The goat cheese was seasoned and fantastic! Overall a total win! I also stole a bite of the potato salad... that was a op of deliciousness.. Heavy on the dill which made it so good! It obviously didn't go with my salad but as a side dish to a sandwich yes please!

    This is the second time this week that we have been to Mendocino Farms. They were well staffed today for dinner around 7pm. Our order was taken by Willis who was very nice and happy. He moved all around the restaurant from taking orders, delivering food and cleaning tables. Other staff during free time went around from table to table asking if things were good, clearing trays and asking if people need boxes. The manager comes in and out checking on things and greeting familiar customers. This restaurant is run very well. As usual, their food is delicious and consistent. The vibe is chill where you can enjoy your food and have a nice conversation with your party.

    I've been to this location of Mendocino Farms a few times now, and it's honestly one of my favorite spots for salads. The food is always consistently fresh, fantastic, and healthy--you really can't go wrong with their menu. Great road trip food! However, I'm knocking off a star for my most recent experience. We ordered takeout, and thankfully we checked the bag before hopping on the freeway because they had forgotten our soup. We had to drive back to pick it up, which was a bit of a hassle on a rainy day. Despite the hiccup, the quality of the food keeps me coming back. Just a heads-up to anyone ordering to-go: definitely double-check your bag before you leave! Still a solid choice for a great meal.

    Chicken Pesto sandwich

    Stopped by for a quick lunch on the way up to Sacto. Decided to give it a try cause I thought this was a healthy option. Friendly counter folks, nice varied menu. We ordered the chicken sandwich panini and the Modern Caesar with chicken. Food came out quickly and both the sando and the salad were very good. Good food, good value, and friendly staff!

    Kids pizza and hot chips...he was so happy

    Went back recently...and yes still amazing! Their soup was so delicious we bought more. My grandson liked his pizza but I will say it was a little different! Just know the pesto pasta shells are cold. Sandwiches are delicious as always!!

    This place is great for a really fresh meal! We have gone with our work group a few times and it's always great. I love their salads and my son was good with their kids menu. It's usually pretty busy so getting a table for more than 4 people can be tough but the customer service is good and the environment is inviting.

We didn't realize the table was assigned until an attentive staffer who tended the tables explained & adjusted things for us to accommodate our preference. The complete miss was that when we ordered, we weren't asked about where we wanted to be seated, inside or outside, table or booth. Inside, the AC kept it chilly. Loud music plays & 2 TVs are on. Seating is at metal table booths, wood tables, or the bar. Outdoors, you can sit under a roofed area or umbrellas. Fountain drinks are self accessible, but the lids were hard to find & are actually in the small space to the left of the dispenser. Sauces & condiments are easy to access. No extra napkins were available except by requesting more from staff. Our eats-- Tri Tip Buck with caramelized onions Smokehouse BBQ Buck Combo with Fries & Fountain Drink Kids Hamburger Slider Meal (added cheese) with Fries & Fountain Drink The food arrived hot & was very tasty, especially with their sauces. The bread was especially buttery & toasty. Crisp on the fries was great. Some dings are that there was a notable delay in getting the kids meal after our other orders arrived, which as a parent, I would've preferred arrived first. Also, my tray arrived with jus spillage on the bottom that already started to soak into the bread. This has been an issue at this location. Overall, we have a tasty, solid meal experience here.

James was the bartender this evening. Took great care of us. I was interested in one of the Bartender Choices drinks. He was very knowledgeable! I went with Victoria's choice: Bubbas Secret Margarita! It was bangin'! It was a key lime flavor and I could definitely tell on the first sip! Not only did James make sure we got amazing drinks but he learned we had already ordered food. He went over and let other staff know we were at the bar and to bring our order over once ready. While closing us out for our drinks James noticed that my husband had a reward available under their rewards program and let us know it would expire soon. So we chose to use the reward at that time and got free burnt ends as an appetizer! Delicious and tender! Our food came out shortly after. We fot ribs, tri tip, tater tots, and roasted veggies and cornbread. Yum!!! Tender meat, crispy taters and those veggies were seasoned well. Buckhorn is a lively place, plays upbeat music, has a TV at the bar playing sports. Great place to get a cocktail, a bite to eat, hang with family or friends! I highly recommend trying Bubbas Secret Margarita!!!

Unfortunately, it just didn't feel like the food was prepared with the same care. The service was even more disappointing, and the restrooms were not clean at all.

Thank you both for being kind and welcoming! We visited on September 12, 2026, around 1 p.m. The young lady who took our order was very unwelcoming and showed little personality or hospitality. We just turned away and left but my 85-year-old mother was already sitting down waiting for her food. The tall gentleman preparing food in the back also the server and CASHIER at times seemed like he simply didn't want to be there. I ordered bread to go, and when I saw how it was prepared and packaged, I was honestly disappointed. Good food is important, but good service, cleanliness, and a little hospitality go a long way too. Unfortunately, this location fell short of what we've come to expect.

I got a 2/3's cup of coffee, when I got home the 4 cheese soufflé was not there but a bacon one was. I don't like bacon. I ate the broccoli one and seriously it was like a half inch in height and way too salty. Plus it was burnt at the bottom so it had a burnt taste to it. It was just horrible. I opened my coffee and it was 2/3's full with a little whip cream and there was still over an inch to the rim with nothing and that's the widest part of the cup. I spent over $25.00 and clearly won't buy those soufflé's again. I'm gonna choke down tomorrow the bacon and hoping it's not burnt as well. I see they charge more and cut back on quantity & end result is burnt crappy soufflé's. Now that I'm seeing this bacon one, the other wasn't a soufflé, thinking it was quiche because it had no flaky crust like the bacon one. It's definitely not what I ordered. I have no idea but it was not good. I hadn't ordered these in a couple of years because they were always sold out by the time I got there. They use to have an artichoke one and they were amazing but was told they don't make those anymore. The broccoli was disgusting and bitter. Should have kept the artichoke one. Huge disappointment on so many levels today. Update! So I ate the bacon one this morning and although I don't like bacon in my food, it was really thin and the soufflé was actually really good! Apparently the broccoli thing was a quiche and it was horrible. She should have told me it wasn't a soufflé. I talked to her about how I loved the artichoke one and I was there for soufflé's. So I'll add a star for the delicious bacon soufflé!

They have self-service kiosks as well as regular registers, but no one was working the registers, so ordering through the kiosk felt less like an option and more like the only way to order. Honestly, I don't mind the kiosk itself. I actually like being able to look through the pictures and take my time without feeling like I'm holding up a line. What I don't understand is taking away basic parts of the customer experience along with the cashier. There was no option to print a receipt, and I wasn't given one with my order either. I had already entered my phone number into the kiosk, and Panera was able to text me when my order was ready, so why not offer the option to text or email an itemized receipt too? More importantly, customers should be able to immediately see exactly what they were charged for. With so many restaurants now using automated ordering systems and adding various fees or surcharges, transparency matters. I'm not saying anything additional was added to my order because, without a receipt, I genuinely don't know. That's exactly the problem. I shouldn't have to track down an itemized receipt after I've already paid just to verify what I was charged. That became even more frustrating once we got home. Thankfully, everything we actually ordered was there, although we also received an item that wasn't ours. More importantly, I had paid extra to customize my half Bacon Chicken Ranch sandwich. I changed the bread to ciabatta, added sliced tomatoes and other vegetables, and paid around $3 extra for avocado. When I opened the sandwich, there was basically a scrape of avocado on it, and some of the other additions didn't seem to be there either. If you're going to offer paid upgrades through the kiosk, the customer should actually receive a reasonable amount of what they paid for. The wait wasn't excessive, and the food itself was good. That's really the frustrating part. I like Panera's food and have for a long time, but the overall customer experience has become increasingly lackluster. I've had similar frustrations at another Panera location as well. Technology can make ordering more convenient, but it shouldn't mean eliminating customer service altogether. If I'm spending nearly $90 on takeout, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect my paid additions to actually be on my food and to be automatically offered some form of receipt. Great food shouldn't have to overcome a disappointing experience every time you order it.

Luckily the weather was perfect the day we went, so we grabbed a table outside and it ended up being the ideal way to enjoy the meal. We started with a Cuban café with condensed milk, and it was incredible. The coffee was bold and rich like a good Cuban espresso should be, and the condensed milk added the perfect amount of sweetness and creaminess. It was smooth, strong, and honestly one of the best cups of coffee I've had in a while. For food, she ordered the chilaquiles and I ordered the ropa vieja plate, and we also added an order of papa rellenas to share. The chilaquiles were easily the star of the show. The chips were perfectly coated in sauce without being soggy, and the sauce itself had a really unique flavor compared to the traditional chilaquiles I'm used to. It had a deeper, richer taste with just the right balance of spice and tang. Every bite was packed with flavor and it felt like a really thoughtful twist on the dish. The ropa vieja was just as impressive. The shredded beef was incredibly tender and flavorful, clearly slow-cooked because it just fell apart with each bite. The seasoning was spot on -- savory, slightly tomatoey, and really comforting. It came with black beans and rice, and even though I'm usually not a big fan of black beans, these were excellent. They had a lot of flavor and a great texture, not watery or bland like they sometimes can be. The only thing that didn't quite land for me was the papa rellenas. They were well made, but I was expecting something with more of an empanada-like texture or a crispier outer bite. Instead, it was much more potato-forward, which made it a little heavier than I was hoping for. Service was amazing! Kind friendly staff Overall though, the food was flavorful, the coffee was amazing, and the relaxed outdoor seating made it a really enjoyable meal.
