A nice BOGO deal brought me in and I'm not mad about it. We tried the Spicy Korean Steak Noodles and it was moderately spicy but had some sweetness, too. The Rigatoni Rosa with Parmesan Chicken definitely needed more seasoning but the parmesan chicken is very good. I could have easily just eaten a huge bowl of that chicken. And the portion we received was huge. We ordered takeout but the interior is pleasant enough. The employees we interacted with were all very friendly. If I lived a little closer, I would visit more often. The food sounds and looks kind of healthy and, even though it's probably not, it's easy enough to deceive myself.

I don't know if if it's the same employees but the service is not inviting. They are fast to bring the food out though. Could be because we were early dinner customers. As with the last business it is extremely warm inside. Before we entered, we saw the doors were closed so we were hopeful that it would be nice and cool inside. No luck. We had an extensive order for just the both of us, but we like to try as much as we can, and have leftovers for the next couple of days. We ordered -Dan Dan Noodles (complimentary dish for orders $60 & up -Shrimp Dumplings -Pan Fried Pork Shrimp Buns -Green Scallion Pancakes -Chicken Chow Mein Noodles -Sesame Balls -Fried Shrimp -Peach Seltzer water (Bottled) Of all that we ordered I enjoyed the Sesame Balls, Scallion Pancakes and the Chicken Chow Mein Noodles. The portions were plentiful. I think I would try the Green Bean dish if we decide to eat here again. But maybe we will get it to go or come when the weather is cold. Plenty of parking in this strip mall.There are charging stations. The restaurant is clean and spacious. The server could use some table training/manners when placing food down in front of the customers, but friendly enough. Food comes out hot and fresh. The sauces taste similar to our other dish so no variety in flavors. Fried shrimp was on the salty side.

We ordered a Pad Thai Shrimp and Thai Drunken combo- beef, chicken and shrimp. These dishes were good. I liked the flavors of the Thai Drunken combo.

The staff was friendly and quick. The guy after me asked for hot sauces. So then I knew to ask for them. They didn't offer, but once I asked, they gave them to me.

There were a number of places closed and Blade Shanghai was open with a little shorter hours. The website wouldn't allow us to place the order for takeout so we ordered at the restaurant at their kiosk. Keep in mind - this place is focused on takeout and not dine-in. The dishes will be in takeout containers (not plates and dishes as you normally would have while dining in). I'm sure many others assume the food would come out in plate and bowls since that is also what is in the photos for the restaurant, but they're not. There were 5 tables and we decided to eat our meal while it was freshly made. Not sure if the food would hold up well in the containers it came in if we brought it home. We ordered the shrimp fried rice, pork sheng jiao bao (but they were out so we got the chive and shrimp and pork pot stickers instead), cucumber salad, and shrimp & pork wonton noodle soup. There were soy sauce packets but there no small bowl to put them in while dining in. All the dishes were delicious. I loved the house sauce. The place is new so there may be changes along the way. It is a little pricey for the portion size, but we thought the food was tasty that we will be back when we decide to treat ourselves. We were able to find parking on the street.

The tomato slices are hearty. (One time the tomato slice was 1inch thick!) Thick slices of sourdough. That habanero honey sauce really takes the BLT up a notch on flavor. Very satisfying. I usually order order online for post workout dinner at home. Rarely is my order ready by the stated time on the receipt. I think most orders are placed online since the counter is always stacked with takeout bags. Dining room isn't busy (in the late afternoon/early evening.) If you are reading this review then you're likely new to Mendo. Good food takes time. You can taste the quality of the ingredients. Seasonal items are always worth a try. Several items are their menu are just as tasty.

I haven't been to other locations so I can't compare, but this one was fantastic. I tried this place after my boyfriend had spicy edamame leftovers from here and they were AMAZING even a day old. Their spice level is a little hotter than other places in San Diego and I think they said a medium was 3? I got the spicy eggplant with shrimp at a 5 and it was perfect for what I wanted. My boyfriend got the pork belly at a 2 and it was a little too sweet for him so he might kick it up a notch next time. The spicy edamame at a 4 was great. The entrees are generously sized so we had leftovers of everything. I noticed the table next to us was also a couple and they shared both an entree and a dessert, so if I'm not feeling particularly hungry I might try that next time.. but also maybe not because the leftovers also tasted fantastic. The service was super attentive--they didn't hover but if you looked over someone would come by right away. The place is also super cute (they took the time to shape the rice into hearts) and there's lots of free, close parking.
