Mendocino Farms Menu – Fresh & Gluten Free Sandwiches, Salads

Mendocino Farms Sandwich Market is a place for great sandwiches. Their commitment to farm fresh foods has resulted in some of the best sandwiches on the West Coast

[recipesformygirls]

I’m obsessed with the Thai mango salad from Mendocino Farms. So I tried to create it at home. I marinated chicken breast in oil, vinegar, soy sauce and honey and grilled it. For the salad I used cabbage, little gem lettuce, carrots, peppers, purple onion, mango, cilantro, mint and sweet and spicy pecans for a crispy topping. The dressing is the tricky part. I used a lime, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger and oil. It was good but the dressing didn’t match Mendocino Farms. I’ll work on it.

Made a new dressing today: lime juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, olive oil and cayenne pepper. I didn’t measure the ingredients but more lime juice than anything.

Mendocino Farms, 769 Americana Way, Glendale, CA 91210

Mendocino Farms at The Americana is quite new (it opened in July 2023). The menu is the same at all their locations, with some seasonal, limited time offerings and their standard array of sandwiches, salads, soup, deli sides, cookies, and beverages.

I’ve tried many things over the years and definitely prefer the salads to the sandwiches. The salads are big and satisfying. They’re made with fresh, high quality ingredients. It’s easy to order online. They have an area where you can pick up your order without needing to talk to an employee. Or if you order at the counter, they’ll give you a buzzer that goes off when your order is ready.

Avocado & quinoa superfood ensalada w/ chipotle vinaigrette ($12.35): Our usual pick, lots of interesting textures and fresh ingredients, including chopped romaine, curly kale, quinoa & millet, housemade superfood krunchies, succotash with roasted corn, black beans & jicama, red onions, cilantro, cotija cheese, grape tomatoes, sliced avocado and a chipotle vinaigrette. Love the creamy avocado and the housemade superfood crunchies. The dressing is very tasty too. They don’t skimp on any of the ingredients. However, they no longer include the whole wheat tortilla. Wish they’d provide a choice of bread and offer a nice roll or piece of focaccia.

This location has indoor seating and a covered outdoor patio. Curbside pickup isn’t available.

First night at Stanford Inn! Longest consecutive days off this entire year. Hella needed.

[friendsoneepisodeonescene]

Made with smoked chicken breast, this delicious salad stands out from the crowd. It's filled with crunchy celery, slivered almonds, fresh basil, and juicy grapes.

Past few days recap :)

1/28/22

✨ nothing too eventful has happened the last few days, started my last semester which I’m actually excited for!

I also finished my whole Veronica Mars rewatch and I feel so accomplished lol! It’s been a Kristen Bell, like month and a half lol! Veronica Mars, then I watched the first three episodes of her new show, The Woman Across the Street Who Saw the Woman in the Window (I thiiiink that is the title haha) and it was SO GOOD!! I got to preview it! So tomorrow when it officially comes out I’ll get to watch the rest of the first season!! So excited!! And then now I’m snuggled up reading and have The Good Place on in the background! I’ve seen the episodes for this show so many times but it’s such a comfort show so having it on is nice!

✨ my mornings have been going on a run or long walk, then coming home and going to my zoom classes! We’re in person starting Feb 12, but the first two weeks are online for Covid purposes. I’m nervous, but so excited to get to be on campus (and use the gyyyymmmm) for my last few months of school!

✨ I juggled doing class work and finishing up Veronica Mara (lol) which I was proud of!

✨ lots of yummy food was had the past few days! Dates with pb/chocolate almond butter and chia squeezes have been my go to snacks lately!

✨ then today I had vans blueberry waffles with melted chocolate almond butter melted as a dip! Then I went on a long walk afterwards which was so nice! It ended up being 8.5 miles of happiness :’)

✨ I had class from 10:30am-11:50am and afterwards spent a few hours with a friend and hung out with her and her pup!

✨ then I came home, ordered mendi’s for dinner (Mendocino farms haha) and got my usual, spicy couscous and then the impossible chorizo salad! (Both so damn good!!)

✨ now I’m snuggled up in bed, sipping on hot cocoa I made while watching The Good Place! Perfect night tbh :)

✨ tomorrow I work (ugh I am so excited to only be working one day a week at work in two weeks time! I am privileged to be able to not have to work and go to school, I have done that all through school up until this semester and I am so relieved to get the break from juggling both!! So after working tomorrow and Saturday and then next week working Thursday-Sunday I will only be there Saturdays and I. Am. Stoked!!

✨ I hope you all are having a good night (or day depending on where you are in the world) ☺️

Mendocino Farms, 238 S Lake Ave., Pasadena, CA 91101, Score: 38/50

Mendocino Farms opened last year, taking over the old Abricott space. They offer “premium ingredients at affordable prices,” including working directly with farmers to obtain local, sustainable produce. The food is very fresh and fairly healthy but portions are generous.

Score: 38/50

Food: 5/5 – The menu includes entrée salads, sandwiches, sides, and cookies. There are seasonal specials too. The huge salads are the star. We love the avocado & quinoa superfood ensalada ($10.75). The avocado toast featured very tender turkey slices and a tangy yogurt based green goddess dressing with sprouts, butter lettuce, mashed avocado, pickled red onions and a thin, nutty toast.

Coffee: 3/5 – I don’t think they have coffee. For beverages, choose from Wolfgang Puck all natural sodas, house lemonade, and iced tea (with free refills). Help yourself to complimentary water.

Wi-fi: 4/5 – Free, no password needed, no limits. You have to agree to the terms before connecting.

Ambiance: 5/5 – It was nice during the Abricott days and it’s still nice with a covered patio and more seating inside. The walls, tables, and some chairs are white but they have one grey walled area with a huge chandelier and b/w photos.

Noise: 3/5 – Quiet but the rock music is pretty loud and once it gets busy, it gets noisy (might be because the floor is concrete)

Plugs: 2/5 –There are some outlets but not many.

Parking: 3/5 – They have a few of their own spaces behind the restaurant. There are public parking lots off Lake where you can park for 90 minutes for free.

Comfort: 4/5 – Padded banquettes, wood chairs, metal stools, a variety of table sizes. Some of the tables can be pushed together if needed.

Bathroom: 5/5 – Two nice restrooms

Art: 4/5 – B/W photos of farms

Tips: Online ordering available. Ask for free samples of their side salads and soups. Order at the front and get a buzzer.

Monday- walked to breakfast at the Beach House Inn’s sister property (Beachcomber) 1/2 mile north, and then took a walk along the oceanfront for pictures. Drove to Van Damme State Park for a 3.5 mile walk in Fern Canyon Trail. Lots of ferns and redwoods- gorgeous and wind protected! At the recommendation of the park ranger, headed to Patterson’s Irish pub in Mendo for a beer. Drank Pliny the Elder from Russian River Brewing (hoppy!), fried clam strips and a wild salmon Caesar salad.

Drove to Mendocino Headlands for pics of the sunset and the wild Pacific waves before heading back to our place to soak in hot water.

Zinburger, 1865 E River Rd, Tucson, AZ 85718

Zinburger is a local Tucson gourmet burger chain that elevates the burger experience. I was surprised by how large the space was and how busy. It’s a place for gathering, relaxing, and eating. It has a polished, chain feel. It reminded me of Mendocino Farms only for burgers. It’s full service.

The menu includes appetizers (fries, wings), salads, burgers (including a build your own burger option), cocktails, wine, beer, and shakes. They have some gluten-free options, including gluten-free buns, but nothing on the menu was labeled vegan.

Portions were smaller and burgers did not come with sides. A classic burger is $9.75 and the priciest burger was $13.95. Burgers are made with certified Angus beef. They also had a turkey burger and a veggie burger. 

Zucchini fries ($7.75) with Parmesan and Ranch dressing. The portion was small. The fries were generously dushed with Parmesan but didn’t have much cheese flavor. The zucchini was julienned into thinner strips than I’m used to and the batter was lighter (panko crumbs) than LA zucchini fries. Tasted good and healthier but wasn’t crunchy. Also, Ranch is a boring dressing to offer on the side.

Farm salad ($11): quinoa, corn, avocado, carrot, cabbage, radish, cucumber, tomato, feta, and champagne vinaigrette. It looked good and had a lot going on. Ingredients were fresh.

Service was friendly. It did live up the image of being an elevated burger place. Parking was easy (it’s in a strip mall).

Mendocino Farms looks to Santa Clara for next location

Here’s an early heads up: Mendocino Farms is coming your way, Santa Clara. The 13th Northern California location for the seasonal sandwich, salad and soup specialist is tentatively expected to open this fall at the new Mission Park Marketplace in the city’s northern tech corridor. Owners Ellen Chen and Mario Del Pero (they’re NorCal expats, and she’s a native of Lafayette) began expanding their…
