“Awesome spot!! Good beer and good sandwich’s“

“cookies are super! sandwiches, salad & soup.. So delicious!“

“Great food, awesome beer selection. You will never regret Moto Deli“

“Meat is good. Wrap is good. The sandwich needs to be served on a real, in-store baked pita bread. And they need to give away their t-shirt if you spend over $20. ;-)“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-star

If you're craving fresh, flavorful, California-cool sandwiches in a relaxed, beach-town vibe—Mendocino Farms in Encinitas is your spot! I swung by today and here's why I’m already planning my next visit:

What I Loved

Flavor-forward sandwiches! I tried the Asian Chicken Salad. Every bite popped with freshness.

Vibe = chill beachtown meets urban green. Bright, clean interior with stylish wood accents, loads of plants, and that slow-California rhythm that just relaxes you.

Friendly staff who get it — Especially impressive, since I'm always asking about gluten-free or low-sugar swaps. They were happy to recommend—and actually remembered my “no sauce, extra avocado” next time.

Quick and consistent service. Even at the lunch rush, food came out hot in under 10 minutes, and they nailed my custom order with zero mixups.

Great outdoor seating. Sun-washed patio had perfect shade-blocking umbrellas and that easygoing Encinitas energy (also dog-friendly for your pup’s occasional snack moment!).“

“AWESOME pizza joint… It has the look. It has the feel. It has a pizza making owner sweating his a** off baking delicious pies. Delicately crunchy crust with a light chew and rich flavored cheeses will definitely bring me back again and again.

Kid-friendliness: Easy place for kids early in the evening… recommended.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely loved my experience at The Habit Burger Grill! 🍔🔥

From the moment I walked in, the service was friendly and fast 🙌. The Charburger was perfectly grilled juicy, flavorful, and with that signature smoky char you can only get at The Habit 🍖🍞. The toppings were super fresh 🥬🍅🧅 and the toasted bun brought it all together just right.

I also tried the sweet potato fries crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and not greasy at all 🍠🍟. And don’t even get me started on the tempura green beans… next-level delicious! 🫛😋

Clean space, fair prices, and consistent quality. You can tell they care about doing burgers right. Can’t wait to come back again. 🔁💯“

“Tasty authentic Thai restaurant“

“Out of all the great fast casual restaurants I will never eat at them again after trying Cava. Cava is miles above any fast casual chain. It’s eco friendly, healthy, cool and above all TASTY. If you’re nearby go in it could be the best decision of your life.“

“Good food and consistent with other Rubio's. The staff was kind but this is the slowest Rubio's I've been to. Perhaps they were jammed with online orders because the dining room was not packed by any means. The fish was a little on the smaller side but tasted very fresh.“

“Long lines but they are super efficient getting customers through and superior service always with a smile🙌“
