    Fun indoor/outdoor dining - and you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Can't decide on a side dish? I don't blame you. Ask the friendly staff for a sample. They're happy to oblige!

    The only problem we have with Mendocino Farms is that there are just too many great sandwiches on the menu to choose from. Looking at their chalkboard is the ultimate inner battle. Read more

    We got a whole team of lawyers over at Westfield Law Group that come here almost daily to pick up food. The food here is amazing and we all usually order the "not so fried chicken sandwich."

    Great selection of sandwiches, salads, and soups. Popular place. Great selection of natural sodas and Tropical Passion Iced Tea. I prefer the Passion Iced Tea right next door at Islands.

    Awesome service, waitress kept giving us free drinks after we told her that my friend was visiting from Boston. Good food, good drinks, great atmosphere. Highly recommended. 10/10

    Caprese sandwich rules! My only minor quibble is that the "artisan" soda fountain is way over-carbonated and it's annoying to fill your cup. Fix this and it's perfect.

    Curry Couscous is to die for!! The drakes salad is a great option when u are trying to steer clear of the divine not so fried chicken sandwich calories 💯

    Great food but the foosball table needs to go. It's loud and generally has kids playing it and screaming their heads off. I want to throw that thing in the street.

    The sandwiches are great but the customer service and how personable each server was made the experience even better.

    Delicious as always but their ordering process takes forever and they only have 3 high chairs and are constantly crawling with kids. Bypass the chaos and phone in a to go order.

    The Pork Belly Banh is served Vietnamese style on ciabatta bread, absolutely delicious. Have to have that when you go, period.

    Being a vegetarian and having a breastfed baby with a dairy intolerance, I can find eating out quite difficult as most places do not cater to my dietary needs.

    The pork belly Banh Mi (served on ciabatta) may be the best sandwich I have ever tried.
