I visited Mendocino Farms for lunch and ordered the “Not So Fried” Chicken sandwich with a side of tangy mustard barbeque sauce. The sandwich was delicious and filling, with crispy chicken, herb aioli, mustard pickle slaw, tomatoes, and pickled red onions on a soft ciabatta bread. The sauce added a nice kick to the sandwich and complemented the flavors well.
The place has a nice environment with plenty of seating options, both indoor and outdoor. It is located next to UCI, which makes it convenient for students and faculty. The service was friendly and fast, and the prices were reasonable for the quality and quantity of food.
They also have a variety of other sandwiches, salads, and soups to choose from, as well as local craft beers and wine. I noticed they have a Kids Eat Free promotion on Thursdays, which is a great deal for families. I also saw they have a Peruvian Steak sandwich that looked tempting, so I might try that next time.
Overall, I had a good experience at Mendocino Farms and would recommend it to anyone looking for a fresh and tasty lunch option in Irvine. It’s not your typical sandwich shop, but rather a place where you can enjoy some creative and chef-inspired dishes with quality ingredients.
Ordered Steak and bacon sandwich. The taste and design of sandwich was amazing. We waited a while to get our food to be delivered to our table. Inside temperature was a little low. Receptionist was friendly. Foods were priced appropriately.
I ordered the Chimichurri Steak and Bacon Sandwich while my friends ordered Peruvian Steak and Most so Fried SS. I have to say the sandwich was good but my steak felt cold. The sauce was okay but at least the bread was crunchy. The Peruvian steak was mediocre and the sauce was spread unevenly. The Most so fried sandwich was made well and tasted good.
Great food, good service and friendly servers. The outdoor space is very nice and cozy. Most of their foods are delicious and worth trying. Their orange drink is great, make sure to try it. The portions are good especially when you compare it to the price you pay for it.

Sandwiches are good here. Some bigger than others just to let you know. For example, if you get a sandwich on a ciabatta that's going to be a little bigger than if you get it on the sesame french roll. We like the Farm Club sandwich and the Not So Fried Chicken sandwich. You could change the bread on any sandwich which we like. And you could also make it a panini style if it isn't. Also love the different drinks/lemonades they have. Potato salad was delish as was the spicy curry couscous. The employees were very nice. I was disappointed though in the lady's bathroom, not only were they out of soap, which worries me that if an employee went in there they have no way to wash their hands, although I would hope if an employee did go in and noticed that they would fill it. And yes, I did let one of the employees know there was no soap. There's two stalls in the lady's bathroom and one does not have a lock. They do have a note on the door saying there's no lock but that's such an easy fix they need to get a lock on that door.
Great selection, quick service, friendly staff, relax atmosphere.... our 🥪sandwiches were great! Definitely need to go back to try the rest of their menu options 🙌❤

The sandwiches got noticeably smaller.

Amazing sandwiches. Can't believe it took me this long to discover them. Will be going back.
Great sandwiches, wide variety of menu options. Ordering is a little different, you order from a person near the menu posted on the wall, given a pager and proceed to a cash register for paying. Food comes out quickly. Outside patio is nice if the weather cooperates. Cookies for dessert.
I usually don't like sandwich places but I got dragged to this one and I absolutely loved it! The drink selections are unique in the best way. I tried and loved the vanilla cream soda (even tastes good flat) and the black berry soda. The atmosphere is fun and would be great for a first date or hanging out with friends. I ordered the steak BLT on a pretzel bun and I highly recommend it!
The guy Nathan shew in the bar always make my day, I want to go every day because the great service and the way how he takes care of my food, I love Mendocino farms 👌🏼
Highly recommend visiting in November every year to eat the "November to Remember" sandwich. I would order it year round if possible 😍
Quite a pricey place for small portions. Don't get me wrong, the quality of the ingredients are very good! However, I was still really hungry after paying $10 for a Banh Mi. Also, obviously their Banh Mi is not authentic, however, it is very delicious for a fusion dish. The ambiance of the place is nice and has a blend of both rustic and modern.
Friendly staff, clean place, delicious and inspired menu. Fairly healthy as well. Try their sides for sure.
We had an amazing time , great ambiance.
Excellent Customer service, we were helped by Bianca and she was amazing
The food was delicious, a little hard to navigate allergies but they were very nice.
Hearty, delicious, and huge salads. Sandwiches are pretty good too. Definitely healthy and vegan friendly!
Havent been here in a long while and to find a combo meal on their menu. Half sandwich and a side salad. I got the steak sandwich with chimichurri sauce and beet side salad. Very fresh ingredients!
Amazing place! Great salads… friendly staff! Going there again for sure!
