Mendocino Farms

Mendo Farms is one of my go-to's now for daily fare. Can't say enough about how courteous and considerate the staff are compared to most other establishments in Totem Lake. Erik, Filip, Julianna, Dave, Diana (I pretty much know them all by now) always greet you with smiles and enthusiasm. The menu is pretty unique and I'm hooked on the turkey avo. In a word, exceptional value all around.

It's so convenient to swing by for a quick pick up. We enjoyed their Thai mango salad and chicken hummus crunch wrap! There was a variety of delicious vegetables and we were so satiated and santisfied.

Not pictured, but we also tried their haunted half & half (house made lemonade and unsweetened tea) and their unsweetened passion fruit black tea. They were refreshing and perfect with the food.

This place is perfect for a casual workday lunch. Food is fresh, maybe some waiting time. There are not that many tables there, some of them in noisy areas, outside tables are in a bit noisy area too. The portions were good, we had salad and two sandwiches for two people, and that was more than enough. Their drinks are crafted, although I cannot say I liked it a lot.
Overall I like the place, will check their new location in Bellevue

This place has become one of my favorites. Everyone I’ve interacted with has been friendly. The food always looks and taste great and even foods I normally don’t like I’ve gone ahead and tried because when I see others ordering it it looks good.

One thing you need to look out for is they do get really busy during certain times and you can wait 15-30 minutes for your food say on a weekend for example.

I like to go into the store, eat there, take home, or get Delivery. A great suggestion if you’re getting delivery is to order right at 10:30 when they open this way your Delivery Person can get in and get your food before the lunch rush.

I can't express how nice it has been to work with the catering team at Mendocino Farms in Kirkland! As an event coordinator, having a reliable location to cater for work events of up to 60 people is a game changer.

We use them for any lunch order big or small and everything comes perfectly labeled and beautifully arraigned. We get nothing but great reviews from our staff whenever we order!

I love working with their team and how professionally they have helped accommodate our requests.
Will continue to order very frequently :)

Michael was exceptional. There was a man choking at the table and someone screamed for help. Michael didn’t hesitate to run over to him and perform the Heimlich. I’m happy to know that if there were to be an incident with myself or someone else in the store, we can feel safe.

Love the food and how fresh it is but wait times can be long since they get so slammed with orders.

Extremely slow service for a work lunch break. I ordered twice from Mendocino: the first time during its grand opening and a second time today. The first order took 25 miniatures to complete which ate up my whole lunch break time. Decided to give another go after several months and the speed of order preparation stunned me at a different level: it took them 50 mins to prepare a half sandwich and a cup of soup.
Don’t understand how they operate the business or how people to the luxury of waiting for a sandwich order for almost an hour. But definitely not for me and will not visit again

Beef Chimichurri and Turkey w/ Avocado subs were awesome. Would buy again.

10/10 would recommend.

This was my first experience with Mendo. The peach and goat cheese salad was flavorful and well portioned! Parking was a little challenging, but since we were just picking up we quickly parked next door at the bank for easy pick up! We will be back again! Cheers

I stopped by this sandwich place for the second time and had such a great experience. David was super friendly - he asked me what I had tried before and what I liked about it, and then recommended his favourite based on my response. It ended up being my new go-to sandwich.

What really stood out, though, was how genuine he was. After I got my food, he checked in to see how I liked it and seemed genuinely happy that I was enjoying it. It made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming, not just another quick bite to eat. I’ll definitely be going back. Thanks David!

I’m not much of a sandwich person but Mendocino Farms is an exception to the rule.

They make a lot of different combinations with many ingredients and flavors. My favorite is the Peruvian Steak but the Chimichurri steak and bacon was amazing too.

The lemonade is great as well.

The taste is good as usual. However, this store gave way less peach slices in their signature peach and prosciutto sandwich than the other stores. I only saw 2-3 small slices of peaches in half of my sandwich. In other stores, there are full layer of peaches.
