Mendocino Farms — Restaurant in Houston

When a place has great service, that’s great! But when a place has great people working for them it makes it a staple. I went into the store and MARGO was absolutely a ray of sunshine, who greeted and took my order; when I wasn’t myself feeling sunny! She gave me 5 star service and went above: on a human level, to make the effort to connect to her customers. She made me feel so welcomed that because of Margo alone, I will be coming here for lunch, now when I come to this location. as I used to Go to juiceland for lunch almost every day, right across from this location! I’d say anyone that’s lucky enough to be greeted by Margo walks away with a smile on their face. (All of the employees were very kind)! I just really want to highlight when a particular employee makes the difference in a way over and beyond way, to make you feel Welcome. I’ve taken that kind gesture and carried it with me ever since. Besides this, they have incredible sandwhiches: for vegetarian too! I suggest the “happie hippie” , they have a lovely outdoor area to sit too if you like. My new favorite place to go, thanks to Margo’s customer service / kindness! It goes a long way! She had everyone smiling. What a lovely place to...

I came to this restaurant on a recommendation from my concierge at the hotel I was staying at. I have to tell you...this place is amazing!! Here's the story:

I came here on the day after Thanksgiving. My hotel restaurant was closed because of the staff calling off. I wanted something fresh, good, and clean. When I showed up, there was a small line of people (around 7 people, mostly couples). The manager came out and announced that there would be a short wait because of staff not showing up and he is the only one cooking (same deal as my hotel). I was good with the wait. It's not a problem. He was polite and looked everyone in the eye. He showed sympathy and confidence. I was impressed. He worked very hard to have everyone's meal ready as fast as possible. Everything came out perfect. Nothing spilled, tipping over, nor was it just thrown together. It was perfectly made!

This place is delicious and there were so many options. I cane with a party of 4 people. We all pretty much shared our food. No disappointment at all. I will definitely be stopping in when I go back to Houston. We hope to have the same manager on duty when we return. Thank you all for providing us with our...

Amazing food, prepared with a sense of care that you can taste in every bite. I want to offer a special appreciation to JC. From the moment we entered, he greeted us with such genuine southern hospitality that the atmosphere instantly felt lighter, as if we were not just customers but welcomed guests.

Jose made an absolutely amazing sandwich — so good that my friends and I came back again, and even brought our families with us. His attention to detail and warmth in service made the experience memorable. Morgan was also very kind and attentive, offering wonderful support and care. Together, they form a remarkable team, with JC’s leadership shining through.

In today’s world, true hospitality is becoming rare—it is almost a forgotten art. JC, Jose, and Morgan embodied it with ease and sincerity. The service was not just efficient, but heartfelt, and that left a lasting impression.

As for the food—it was spectacular. I ordered the Happy Hippie sandwich, and the quality was outstanding. Each flavor felt alive, a reminder that good food nourishes more than the body; it nourishes the spirit too.

Wonderful team, wonderful service....
