This spot has always got some high quality sandwiches that are fresh and yummy. Somehow their menu items have done a fantastic job and getting the best of both worlds when it comes to being on the healthier side while at the same time hitting all the flavor spots in your mouth. The sandwiches are great, so you’ll have to return to try them all. The couscous is amazingly good too and one of our favorite sides.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Mendocino Farms never disappoints. The avocado quinoa salad is my go-to now, and before I went vegan, I also loved the Caprese veggie panini, which was always a favorite. I was first introduced to Mendocino Farms back in 2014 or 2015, and it’s been a place I’ve continued to come back to over the years. The Brea location is my go-to, even though it’s a bit of a drive for me, but it’s definitely worth it. If you have any substitutions or specific preferences, just let the staff know. They’re always helpful and accommodating. I once had to come back a second time because I messed up my own order, and the staff and management were incredibly kind and didn’t charge me for the second order. They truly cared and showed respect, especially knowing it was a drive for me. They really take care of their customers and make sure everything is done right. I can never give this place less than five stars. Consistent, welcoming, and always a great experience.

Except our favorite, Chicken and Prosciutto , we ordered Chicken Parm Dip this time, marvelous!!! Chicken, Mendo’s krispies, melted mozzarella & parmesan, pomodoro sauce, basil, Calabrian chile aioli, on toasted sesame roll served with extra pomodoro for dipping, make sure you'll eat the sandwich every bite with the dipping sauce, and you know what, pour the sauce onto the sandwich, don't just dip it, you'll know how good it is !!!
