Mendocino Farms

The staff at this location is unmatched. Joey, the manager, is so kind. He always remembers my name and is so helpful when I have questions about the menu. My favorite is the chicken caprese sandwich! So fresh and nourishing.

I originally was getting it without the peppers and Joey suggested I try them on the side, now I love the sandwich with peppers! Thank you so much to Joey and the rest of the staff at Mendicino Farms in Folsom! Very grateful to you all.

I was very impressed. Delicious tasting food. I had the vegan Banh Mi with extra peppers. A refreshing sandwich that was not too heavy. I would definitely return back and explore more of their menu.

I always had enjoyed their salads here. Perfect for a warm day so fresh and delicious. The staff wasn’t friendly but helpful. The place is not crowded and has patio heaters.

We went in for a lunch on Saturday noon. The restaurant was crowded but the service was good. We got our food in about 15 mins after ordering.
- November Remember: good generous portion. The filling was flavorful and the slaw was well dressed (not too much). The cranberry chutney gave a hint of sweetness to the sandwich. The bread was good and toasted perfectly.
- Mama Chen’s Asian Chicken salad: it was just ok. There was just lots of lettuce and a little bits of other veggies (spinach, bean sprouts, cabbage). There was a good portion of tender chicken pieces but it was lack of flavor. The cashew & wonton strips gave a nice crunch to the salad. The miso mustard sesame dressing was just ok - nothing special
- Kids chicken tender: the tender pieces were cooked perfectly & tender. The coating was crispy. My kid said it was just okay.
- Rose lemonade: delicious! The lemonade is a tad less sweeter.

We went back for a take out on Tuesday around 5:30pm and was served immediately. My order came out in 10 minutes after ordering.
- Pork belly bahn mi: delicious & flavorful pork belly. The ciabatta was toasted & gave a nice crunch. The fillings (pickled daikon & carrot, cucumber, cilantro & jalapeno) are just what in the bahn mi from Vietnamese restaurant. This is my favorite!
- Sweet Heat Crispy Thai chicken sandwich: the brioche bun was fluffy and soft! The chicken was crispy & tender. It was more mild spiciness. The slaw inside gave a nice crunch to the sandwich.

I have been wanting to try this place since it opened in midtown but they are always busy. I was excited to see there was one closer to my area in Folsom. The food was delicious and everything I had hoped it would be. However the place was a bit messy and the staff was young and a little more into chatting than cleaning up the place. I will definitely be back and hopefully the place will be a little cleaner.
