Mendocino Farms, a fast casual sandwich chain known for its fresh and organic ingredients, seems to be working on a new location in Torrance. The restaurant recently filed a liquor license application where Spires Restaurant used to stand inside Plaza del Amo.
Mendocino’s menu includes a variety of signature “Cheffy Sandwiches” like the “Not So Fried” Chicken, Chimichurri Steak and Bacon, and Vegan Banh Mi, as well as classic sandwiches like the Chicken Parm Dip, Italian Roast Beef and Turkey Avo Salsa Verde. The chain also serves a wide variety of salads, soups, sides and house made beverages.
“We source each ingredient with care from farmers and food artisans who share our elevated standards for quality—working locally with our neighbors when possible. Those high standards include no added hormones, artificial sweeteners, food dyes, or artificial flavors and a commitment to environmental and social responsibility,” says their website.
Mendocino has more than 20 locations throughout Los Angeles, including a soon-to-open Encino store. The company has a presence throughout California, Texas and Washington.
Mendocino’s neighboring tenants at the Plaza del Amo shopping center include Giuliano’s Deli & Bakery, El Burrito Jr, Baskin Robbins, FedEx, Great Clips, and an Amazon Fresh which is currently under construction.
