Creative gourmet sandwiches, soups & salads, made with local & seasonal ingredients.
"This sandwich shop got its start in Downtown Los Angeles but San Diegans can chow down on its chef-crafted sammies at five county-wide locations (Carlsbad, Del Mar, Downtown San Diego, La Jolla and Mission Valley). The Southern California-centric menus include Peruvian steak featuring Oaxacan cheese as well as a variety of soups and salads to round out your meal. Order ahead via Mendocino’s app, online or just call it in." - Darlene Horn
"Los Angeles’ popular salad and sandwich mini-chain, Mendocino Farms, arrived to La Jolla and Del Mar last year. Many of their lunch-sized salads are gluten-free and all of their sandwiches have the option of being served on gluten-free bread." - Jackie Bryant
"Chef Bryant Ng of the James Beard-nominated Cassia in Los Angeles has partnered with Mendocino Farms on a sandwich special that will see all proceeds donated to the People Concern, a nonprofit that supports the food insecure, homeless, and victims of domestic violence. Available from March 12 to March 25 at the Mendocino Farms in La Jolla and Del Mar, chef Bryant’s sandwich features roasted Mary’s free-range chicken, scallion and lemongrass relish, fresh herb salad, and fontina cheese, with provolone melted on top of the bread and a side of chickpea coconut curry for dipping." - Candice Woo
