    This Lauren .

    I have gone here. Few time since I'm now living in the area .their food is subpar at best ! However it was there so decided to give it another shot. I order my normal sub and asked for theories amount of avocado the employee making my sub had no problem adding the correct amount ! Didn't ask for extra but 3 (1/2 ) slices or brown avocado isn't the full portion she had no problem fixing the issue this is the young lady on the right ! Lauren then came taking the. Avocado off my sandwich and stated this is the portion you are getting ! I walked out I'm sure she ate the sandwich or maybe they put all the items back after them being on a sandwich . Lauren will do a huge disservice to the sandwich shop ! She isn't equipped to be in customer service one her attitude, hygiene, ext ! I will also be reporting to health dept. I will try and send owner a message as well to notify them of the mistake they made by having Lauren represent their business. A photo will be posted there is always a Lauren everywhere you go it's unfortunate however these shop owners need to do their due diligence prior to hiring filthy people like Lauren to be the represent their establishment ..

    I love this place very much because the sandwiches here are the most delicious in town, the service was amazing, the ambiance was really neat, and I also enjoyed listening to the music, too!

    Sometimes you just need a big sandwich with oil, vinegar, salt and pepper on it. I remember loving this place when I was a teen. Im really glad they're in this strip mall. I like to visit Tuesday Morning, so this place is nearby. The service was friendly and the place was really clean, like brand spanking new! I got a sub and substituted the special bacon in, was it jalapeno bacon? In any case, my sandwich was good!

    I had no idea these were still around. This place is dope. Split a big foot Peppered Turkey, more than enough to keep me satiated til dinner. The service was smooth and easy, the place was clean and well kept, and the subs were made with quality ingredients - no brown avocados or questionable sprouts here. Will definitely be back.

    Honestly, this has got to be my new favorite chain sandwich shop in San Diego. I ordered the Cali sandwich which comes with lettuce, tomato, bacon, provolone cheese, and avocado. The bread had a really nice texture and cheesiness to it that wasn't overpowering. Flavor was great albeit everything is a little bit expensive. Almost definitely be coming back and trying some of the other sandwiches and I definitely have to try their macaroni salad as I'm a big fan

    After my appointment at the Veteran Affairs we passed by here at Mendocino Farm La Jolla…read more Our first time here so we just picked which one looks good and sounds good on the menu board. We picked PERUVIAN STEAK SANDWICH, a seared steak tossed in Spicy aji amarillo sauce, then their CHIMICHURRI STEAK BACON; it's a seared steak and applewood-smoked bacon, and also got their SMOKEY BBQ BRIOCHE SANDWICH , this one is a smoke Pork burnt ends with BBQ sauce. Every sandwich we had tasted good, but i like the most the Chimichurri Steak & Bacon, it's more to my palate, not too sweet or not too spicy. Service was quick our sandwiches were done quickly, plenty of staff go around checking the tables and greeting the customers. Parking is easy, with lots of spaces.

    I like the Mendocino Farms concept and we had a good experience at the first one we visited (it was…read morenot this one) so I was disappointed with our long wait for three to-go sandwiches and a cup of soup. I think I was sitting in the store for at least 30 minutes while a family member waited in our car and watched several people park, get their orders and leave. Two people who ordered after us received their food before we did. I finally stood up and only then did an associate crabbily pack up our order and give it to us. When we first arrived, no one even showed up at the counter for at least five minutes. There was another customer waiting behind us as well. My sandwich (Happy Hippie) was not very good...insubstantial and put together in a blah manner. A family member who had the "not so fried chicken sandwich" said it was too salty. I paid $62 for this order (with a tip, which I had added before the long wait...) It obviously wasn't a good value, This is a beautiful and clean store but a general lack of enthusiasm from the associates, inconsistent customer service, high prices, and mediocre quality food will dissuade me from making any future visits to this location.

The ordering system is super fun and lets you customize your sandwich exactly how you want it--perfect if you're picky like me. The sandwich itself? Incredible. Fresh ingredients, perfectly toasted bread, and generous portions of high-quality meat. You can really taste the difference. I also appreciated how many options they have, whether you're going classic, low-carb, or all-out indulgent. The staff was friendly, fast, and made sure everything came out just right. It's rare to find a place that nails both quality and service like this. If you're looking for a consistently delicious, customizable sandwich experience, Which Wich is definitely a go-to. I'll absolutely be back!

You start by grabbing a brown bag at the front, then use the sharpies to fill out your sandwich choices and toppings. After that, you move to the cashier. I opted for a regular black bean patty and loaded it up with hummus and veggies. It's nice how you can take your time to customize your sandwich and see all the options laid out in front of you. The process feels interactive and less rushed. The sandwich was great! Light and fresh without the heaviness of meat and cheese. I finished the whole thing and felt great. The service was friendly and quick. I'll be back when I'm craving a sandwich!

They also have smoothies, their "world famous cookies", candies, chips, etc. It's one of the oldest sandwich shops around. Quality ingredients with friendly staff. I used to come here a lot more in my 20s... I'm 35 now. It's always been consistent. I've never had a bad experience. There is seating outside you can eat your food at. Inside the shop, it has an old beachy sandwich shop vibe which I hope never changes. Great memories coming here. Will continue to come. Expect to spend around an average of $20 here.

This shop on Avenida De La Playa, which is the Main Street closed off from cars, so people can walk freely, but parking is a challenge. The cheese shop can't be missed, with the green ivy covered store front. It's standing round only, no seating inside but limited outside seating. You order from the counter and they bring your order to you if you decide to sit outside. I selected the popular sandwich: Turkey, Jack Cheese and Avocado on sourdough bread with every veggie: lettuce, tomato, red onion was all it had. Just baked from the oven were the famous oatmeal cookies in caramel and chocolate, looked so yummy I didn't order any but the guy behind the counter complementary gifted a pair to me, so nice, friendly and cool!! Inside the shop didn't appear clean, I would describe the ambiance as divey. Sat outside and shortly my order was presented nicely wrapped sandwich and warm cookies. Took pics and took a bite and my consensus is that I was not a fan of this sandwich because I really prefer smoked turkey and not plain turkey. The sandwich looked subpar, the layering of ingredients weren't assembled as aesthetically layered as it can be and tasted just ok. My pup usually doesn't like smoked turkey or unfresh meats but she liked this plain roast turkey, which means it's more likely fresh and pass her approval. She also ate the contents of the sandwich sans the bread and onions of course. The oatmeal cookies were a real treat and lived up to the hype, kind of gooey, yummy and good for you...hence oats is fiber! As a cheese aficionado, this shop is not really a cheese shop with no abundant cheese selections. The shop should just be named sandwich shop, since sandwiches and candies seem to be their cash cows. If you're looking for a cheese shop, this isn't the place, but it might the place for a sandwich. Recommend
