Reviews for Mendocino Cafe in Mendocino, CA

Felt like having a great meal after many days of eating in small town diners serving platefuls of cheesy pastas. This one did... not disappoint - high quality tasty food, great vibe and excellent service. We got blackened fish, Thai bowl and chicken satayalong with wine and an excellent dessert that was tart and not too sweet. We would love to come back. Read more

A great local eating experience. Not sure if ingredients are sourced locally but the restaurant felt ?family-run?. Food tasted... great, portions weren?t too large and service was great. The dessert was ok, we tried the carrot cake. Found the cake slightlydry. Would definitely eat here again. Read more

Lots of outdoor seating in a pleasant, plant filled covered patio. Food is a mix of Californian, Thai and a Vietnamese salad... also on the menu. Read more

This is the best cafe in Mendocino, without a doubt. We ordered Minestone soup, Quesadilla, Huevos Rancheros and Thai Fire Pot.... Every single one of them was fantastic. Their fire pot has a strong resemblance to Thai red curry. The ambience is soothing.There?s outdoor and indoor seating. Staff is really polite and welcoming. Definitely recommended ? Read more

We stopped in for lunch on a rainy Monday. The service was excellent the food exceeded expectations and the price was fair. The... tomato bisque was excellent. The steak and Brie sandwich was on a perfect ciabatta roll and one of the nicest sandwiches I?vehad on the north coast. We split the sandwich and it was plated for two and generous enough for a light lunch. The outside patiois very CoVid safe. A light lunch for two cost $40. I highly recommend this cafe. Read more

Outdoor dog friendly seating. Covered with heaters since the pandemic, but they had patio seating pre pandemic. Firepot is... soooo wonderful!!! Fresh ingredients full of flavor. Pasta florentine was great. Pasta and chicken cooked perfectly. Alsobursting flavor. Also this place has the best breakfast burrito. Service is fantastic and always served with a smile! Read more
