“Never had it before and it was very delicious!! Great staff, greeted with smiles and efficient, quality service!!“

“Easily the best sandwich of my lifetime. I paused after every bite, saying “Damn, this is amazing”. The bread had that perfect crust and taste. While I’m at it, it’s also hard for me to remember a better tasting chocolate chip cookie.“

“This quaint little gem boasts of an array of cheeses and charcuterie. Their sandwiches are one of the tastiest with ingredients of the highest quality!!“

“Food is great’ ! Fast service. The Chili is very good. I had the la Ensenada sandwich and it was absolutely amazing!! Will definitely return!! I rate this a 10 out of 5 :)“

“The first time I came here I wanted to get their Milky Chill Quenchers in this cute bear cup they had but they didn’t have it available when I went. The owner said she will owe me one if I come back for it. I didn’t come back maybe for at least two weeks and she remember me and said they bear cup that cost an extra $5 is free. Wow what service and the fact she remember me that’s awesome. I got their Milky quencher mint chocolate flavor because I love mint flavor anything. This thing was so good it was minty but not too overpowering the milk shake which is good and I love the bear cup it came in. I really want to come back and try their UNE sandwich and another one of their drinks which they have so much of. Most definitely come here especially for a nice cool drink to escape the summer heat.“

“Like Zupas but way better! The food was delicious and a great portion size. Reasonably priced as well, especially for the area. We will be back again. I tried the hummus salad, and we also got the caprese sandwich with chicken tortilla soup. Everything was delicious, especially the soup.“

“Yummy sandwiches! Been here several times, tried a few things but so far the roasted chicken plus salami combo was the best. Wouldn’t have thought to put those together in a sammy but it was hella good. Of course, had to get it with Dutch crunch bread. “

“My family and I just recently went to Sourdough and had a great experience. The staff were very welcoming and very patient with our group. The restaurant itself was very clean. Tables were brand new with cool designs. The atmosphere was also very respectful and peaceful.

Food was also very exceptional for the price. I had the grilled chicken sandwich. The meat was very tender and overall very good. Others in our group that are vegetarian were also very pleased with their meals. The Caprese sandwich and the ttomato bisque with the side of bread were very popular. The cookies though shouldn't be overlooked. They were very soft and delicious. If you come here you have to give the cookies a try.“

“Pop & mom shop, sandwiches are really good, the Vietnamese coffee was amazing!
The place looks old but the service makes it up for it.
I would recommend grabbing a sandwich and a coffee here rather than going to the other fast food chains nearby.“

“The Mountain View Mendocino’s Farm is a popular location in a chain in the San Antonio complex where there is plenty of seating and restaurant to choose from, but we still ended up going to Mendocino Farms. The ambiance with so much seating and barely anyone there for dinner(I think it is more busy during lunch) it was the perfect spot to eat. The menu had lots of veggie options which was perfect for my vegetarian mom and the food seemed really fresh. We ordered a Guava Lemonade, Tomato Soup, Chimichurri Steak and Bacon Sandwich, and The Modern Caesar Salad!

Starting with our bev. The guava lemonade was really good. It tasted super fresh and you could even feel some guava seeds at the bottom of the drink. It was tart and refreshing and they filled our drink to the brim. The Chimichurri steak and bacon sandwich was also quality. The Chimichurri was oddly really sweet and the steak was a little tough, but the dish still tasted amazing with all of its elements( the bacon, the sauces, and the roll). The salad though I wasn’t able to try was also really good with little crunchies that were unique. It didn’t seem like anything special, but the ingredients all looked fresh and delicious. The tomato soup pasty was subpar. There was no wow factor it was just plain tomato soup. There didn’t seem to be any salt added so the soup was kind of sweet and sour which I didn’t enjoy however with some bread it tasted a lot better.

Overall, Mendocino Farms for its affordability(all of the dishes and drinks I described ended up being $45), pretty good tasting food, and great ambiance I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others and hope to come again.

Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie salads, sandwiches, and sides. All are pretty healthy too.“

“This was my first time in a Specialty's after all the Bay Area stores closed right around when CoViD hit. I'm so glad the owners decided to take a chance and open a new store at this location next to the NASA base.

For anyone who used to work in the FiDi in San Francisco, this feels like coming home. The sandwiches and cookies are the same tip-top quality as I remember, and the drink selection has gotten even better.

As for the service -- outstanding. I miss the cloth bags they use to hold large orders back when I used to order breakfast for the whole office, so I asked if I could buy one; instead the cashier walked to the back and got me two new bags for free, then wished me a pleasant day. What more could I ask.

The people of Mountain View don't know how good they've got it here. Come back, Specialty's, we miss you!

Parking: The parking lot is shared with other buildings in the same office complex. Not that large to begin with.

Kid-friendliness: Casual atmosphere. Plenty of tables and space for kids to roam. Bathrooms are large and very clean.“

“The vintage DragonBallZ sodas made my day!! The service was fast & the 15min wait for spring rolls was WORTH IT—everything was delicious and they made us smile the whole time. What a neighborhood treasure!

Vegetarian options: spring rolls, egg rolls, & a veg/vegan banh mi option!

Dietary restrictions: Great vegan & vegetarian options!

Kid-friendliness: Check out the anime-themed sodas for the kids!

Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible!“

“Good sandwiches (huge selection), clean, well-priced. Lou’s sauce is great.My one pick point is that the amount of meat / ingredients is small compared to the bread slice. There were at least 4 bites of the sandwich that were almost entirely bread. Either cut the bread smaller or add more filling.“

“I pick up lunch here every week day. I don’t plan on stopping unless I stop working nearby. I had the same salad for a month straight now. It is the best place for a nutritious meal. The lunch time staff are the best. Thank you for a great experience!“

“Some of the best sandwiches I ever had. They have vegan, vegetarian & gluten free options too! Try the Handsome Owl, it’s my favorite ☺️

Vegetarian options: Most of the sandwiches can be made vegetarian or vegan.

Dietary restrictions: They have options for people with dietary restrictions, such as Gluten Free, Vegan & Vegetarian.“

“I am so glad they opened this sandwich spot! I ordered 5 items for takeout and it came out to only $34. I got 2 veggie sandwiches on Dutch crunch. Best sandwiches in San Mateo County. I also tried their 2 dessert options. They have the bst carrot cake I have ever had! Their chocolate chip cookie tasted very rich. I had their veggie soup which was fresh and delicious. This place is my new go to spot. The location is a little awkward, but the inside is organized and clean. It only took 10 minutes to make my order. Definitely a satisfied customer!!!“

“A hidden gem in Palo Alto, you have to come all the way to the end of street, but totally worth it.

I ordered a "Grilled NY Famous Reuben with Sauerkraut & 1000 Island Dressing", OMG, it's just so good for the summer.

Not to mention the old gentleman owner cook your sandwich for you, you're actually in the New York of Bay Area.“

“Best Vietnamese sandwiches and super friendly staff!“

“Their gluten free wraps allow me to eat any of their sandwiches. I’ve tried their veggie and tuna fish so far. Both very good. Give them a try.“

“Delicious 🤤 but tiny portions for the bowls ! Stick to the subs if you want to be full ! Prices are not bad , but I love big salads and it was lacking veggies 🥗 the vegan steak was actually loaded up though lol“

“Kareoke is fun there and it started back today and every Thursday. Food and service is great.“

“gosh… I remember togo’s sandwiches from the late 70’s and 80’s, best food EVER!!!!

“I been here twice had the turkey sandwich on slice bagel bread the 1st time and the 2nd time I had the tune on slice bagel bread and the mango tea. so far I love this place everything nice and clean and excellent customer service. I will be back.“

“Best sandwiches! The garlic sauce makes the sandwich. The avocado is so fresh!“

“Yummy and affordable but please please start putting every ingredient on the menu descriptions! The pesto chicken wrap has cheese but that’s not listed and one of your salads has seeds which also isn’t listed. I love the variety of food here, would be perfect lunch spot if every ingredient was included :)“

“Delicious, smokey flavor, tender beef, soft bread and the root beer was delicious! a bit pricey, but well worth it! 😊“

“Been supporting this place most of my teens and college years, I recommend this place to anyone looking for a lot of variety such as , pho , Banh Mi , snacks , drinks and anyone looking for ready to go food. Come early sometimes lines can be long. Expect delays too , sometimes they are short staff and get help from security which really is a great help to them.“

“I’m work on my first day of Erik DeliCafe check out Show me tour“

“Fabulous food especially their freshly baked French rolls.“

“I love the sandwiches here, and I recently started eating gluten-free. I just had a lettuce wrap club: 1/2 turkey, 1/2 ham, 3 strips bacon, and it's fantastic. Lots of great crunch you don't get in a sandwich, even. Definitely recommended if you're on the lookout for gluten-free options on campus!

Dietary restrictions: Good gluten free option in the lettuce wrap“

“The sandwich that myself and my father got was great especially with the buy one great one free deal I would have gave five stars but my sprite and chips was forgotten and they charge me for it. They need to make sure everything is in my order before delivery especially since I was charged for it…“

“I have been going to the Los Altos location since the mid 1970's.......“

“I've long been a fan of Erik's, but a few years ago I noticed some of the branches were making anemic sandwiches, skimping on the ingredients. Apparently it has to do with who owns which locations. When I've been to this location, however, the sandwiches seem better.“

“food is so yummy!! and service is great.“

“Be back real soon! My kind of Sub! Mike's way of course...“

“It was a super hot day and I had just finished a long hike up the hill, I was ravenous and was researching restaurants near me, however, I did not expect to come across this gem of a criminally under represented restaurant. The food was phenomenal and there were plenty of choices in terms of menu items, and the staff was amazing. Highly recommend going here for lunch because I assure you that you will find some sandwich combo you like there.“

“The best sandwich I've had in a very long time. Thank you for having such delicious gluten free sourdough bread. 😋“

“Subway eat fresh that is what I did. Ordering online or by the app is the trend these days less contact with other people and germ spreading. I recommend this wrap is tastes delicious. You can customize your food any way you want so knowing what they offer is a big help.“

“Awesome sandwiches and very friendly service ! The ruben was delish and the broccoli cheddar soup good also ! Will definitely go back again ! I forgot my pickle though, darn ! Was chatting so much with the friendly lady up front, I totally forgot to make sure they gave it to me ! Oh well, next time ! I'm hoping business is good for them and they can stay for a long time !“

“Chai is great, tastes basically as good as Coupa's“
