### 1/5 — App has become horrible

*2026-06-22, version 26.0.3*

Love their food and the app used to be fine, but now it is impossible to use if you already had an account. Would love to order something to pick up at the drive thru, but cannot deal with the hassle. Fix this and I’ll come back, but not until then

### 1/5 — Very basic

*2026-06-20, version 26.0.3*

I can’t even add an eGift card to my account. The gift card I received had a card number and a pin but when I try to add it, there’s not option to input the pin and it just says no remaining balance on the card

### 1/5 — Horrible app that now requires a mother login

*2026-06-20, version 26.0.3*

They supposedly upgraded me to a OLO account! Now I have to give my info to another 3rd party? Hell no! 

The app was already not great but at least I could order my food and pay for it. This is since you can’t call the store and place an order which is arcane!

Your food is good but this app now requiring me to give my personal info to another 3rd party is completely unacceptable. I’ll either stop in when I am nearby or find someplace else. 

Once a week Mendo habit is gone.

### 2/5 — They’re not interested in making their customers have a happy online experience.

*2026-06-18, version 26.0.3*

Updated this to say that the new app is worse than the one before, and I should’ve read the recent reviews before updating it. How is that fair of all of my past order history is gone??? I’ve spent a lot of money and time with this company and any record of it is now gone. My payment method is gone, and the rest of my information as well.

### 1/5 — New app is no good

*2026-06-18, version 26.0.3*

The old app was much better than this current one.

### 2/5 — Weird App

*2026-06-13, version 26.0.2*

I agree with other people that the food is never ready when it’s supposed to be ready. The other issue is that I am unable to order the new seasonal items, even though they are supposed to be available already. The app is updated, so I don’t get the problem.

### 2/5 — One of the poorest performing apps on the market

*2026-06-11, version 26.0.2*

One of the best restaurants with the worst performing apps around. Looks poorly on the restaurant and Management. Would not recommend

### 1/5 — Can’t even sign up

*2026-06-10, version 26.0.2*

App is so bad I can’t even sign up. I press continue when I enter my email and it doesn’t even work

### 2/5 — Updated app is glitchy

*2026-06-07, version 26.0.2*

It used to work great when it seemed web based. Now this more app based experience has been plagued by bugs. Initially it would not let me order pickup, defaulting only to delivery. Then it said items were sold out in my local store, but when ordering from the website they were stocked. They must have changed things even for the website because now you can’t modify ingredients (when you try to update the item, tapping on the button does not do anything). I have mentioned it to the staff members when picking up my order, but nothing has changed yet.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-06-06, version 26.0.2*

The app was recently updated and it’s now broken. They force you into creating an account with some 3rd party company AND THEN the app simply doesn’t work. I added it one item to my bag but now can’t delete it or any anything else.

I hope the fix it soon. I order ahead of time because my family is BUSY and the amount of time it takes to wait in line, order, then wait for the food to be made is time lost. Now I can’t.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-06-02, version 26.0.2*

This app is complete garbage. Do not waste your time with it and do not put any personal information in it. There is no tech support either. I wouldn’t give it any stars but for the fact that I have to give it at least one star to post the review.

### 1/5 — New App Version Stinks

*2026-06-02, version 26.0.2*

Previous version is much better. Why does an update erase all of your data and history? Old one was great

### 1/5 — Gift card balance missing!

*2026-06-01, version 26.0.1*

Where’s my balance after the update???

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2026-05-27, version 26.0.1*

App crashes all the time

### 1/5 — Updates are terrible!

*2026-05-27, version 26.0.1*

I can’t update my email. Was unable to even order.  All old orders have disappeared. Had to phone in order. Very frustrating!

### 1/5 — New app update horrible

*2026-05-24, version 26.0.1*

Did anyone even test this? It is so much worse.  Off the top of my head:

- doesn’t maintain logged in state 
- not compatible with password autofill
- favorite store / search is somehow worse 
- fonts and headings are distractingly ugly and weird 

Whoever built this app should be fired.

### 1/5 — App Upgrade Account Login Workflow sucks

*2026-05-21, version 26.0.1*

Do you guys not test this? Do you not want users to be able to order from your restaurant?

### 1/5 — Failure login

*2026-05-21, version 26.0.1*

Has problem cannot login in the app and keep asking to login, hard to make order
You have to fix it asap

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-05-20, version 26.0.1*

Last update broke the app. invalid_grant when trying to log in

### 1/5 — Super slow and doesnt submit your order

*2026-08-06, version 26.0.5*

Everything you tap on is extremely slow to load. Even in the login screen, the login button is disabled for a long time and then enables. Have a loading animation here at least! When i finally added to cart and tapped submit, the thing errors with a invalid bill id error. Bye, im getting food somewhere else

### 1/5 — Terrible Experience

*2026-08-03, version 26.0.5*

Before I could log-in, this app made me create a parallel account on a different platform (Olo) which said I already had an account there, but there is no way to reset the password or log-in on other account. In short, can’t create an account, rendering this app useless.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t even work

*2026-08-02, version 26.0.5*

Wouldn’t let me add a fountain drink. Put this app in the garbage heap where it belongs - how are you a brand this big and don’t have a basic functioning app?

### 1/5 — Can’t select location

*2026-07-05, version 26.0.5*

I’ve used app in the past. But new version will not allow me to select my location for pick up orders. Please fix this.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. Guys you’re losing revenue

*2026-07-03, version 26.0.5*

Always says “unable to add to shopping cart” or “error loading shopping cart” when trying to order

### 1/5 — Can’t ever complete order anymore

*2026-07-03, version 26.0.5*

I love eating hear but I’m so frustrated that the app never works for me now, at least the last 4-5 times I’ve tried. I can pick an item but when I add it to basket, the app gives me an error about loading the basket.

### 1/5 — Update a “no” for me

*2026-07-02, version 26.0.5*

Used to use the past app all the time for work.  Just tried the update and it wouldn’t let me past picking a store.  Why bother having a preorder app?

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-01, version 26.0.5*

Keep getting error message when trying to order. It’s been 2 weeks of the same error. “Could not load shopping basket”

### 1/5 — Can't sign into OLO

*2026-06-25, version 26.0.4*

Competent ownership would fire the entire drive team -- the entire management team. Garbage app by garbage personnel.

### 1/5 — Mobile drive thru option missing

*2026-06-25, version 26.0.4*

My location has a mobile drive-through, but the most recent app updates do not include this
This is a bug that needs to be fixed
Otherwise ordering is seamless
Leaving one star until I can use the app the way I used to be able to

### 5/5 — Easy App

*2026-07-30, version 26.0.5*

You will find ordering from the Mendocino Farms app is easier and cheaper than Uber eats. The app gives you plenty of options to modify your food the way you want it. And you can always add notes towards the end. And it links right up with your Apple Pay for pick up or delivery.

### 5/5 — Love this place!!!

*2025-11-29, version 25.12.2025090301*

The amazing staff and food are mind blowing!! Love everything and everyone! Micah and Robin are so awesome!!

### 5/5 — Fav Sammie in Chicago

*2025-10-17, version 25.12.2025090301*

title says it all! hubby loves it too!! :)

### 5/5 — Delivery!

*2025-06-26, version 24.18.2024121301*

Everything was perfect, came decently quick and food was great!  I love that they send a picture of it outside so that you know it’s there!

### 5/5 — Five Star

*2025-03-15, version 24.18.2024121301*

Amazing foods !  I love the Sandwiches!!

### 5/5 — So good

*2024-12-09, version 24.11.2024081201*

I love Mendocino farms it’s like my favorite place ever

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2024-11-20, version 24.11.2024081201*

This is the best app of its kind that I have used. It is clearly laid out, great photos, descriptions and is easy to navigate. There are so many bad fast food apps out there, they can take a lesson from Mendo!

### 5/5 — Haile in Brentwood 💝

*2024-11-03, version 24.11.2024081201*

I must say when I order here, it’s always perfect and staff has big smiles. Orders are always on time and early. I only wish we could tip on the app or online, because I place the order on automatic repeat and don’t know how to add a better tip later. Please give Haile a raise asap 🙏

### 5/5 — Straight Forward

*2024-10-16, version 24.11.2024081201*

Super easy to use! Loved that it gives options to modify and name each order. Wish it had Apple Pay tho

### 5/5 — Bad day

*2024-09-18, version 24.11.2024081201*

Ordered 2 salads with extra chicken. Didn’t get the extra chicken plus they failed to include the dressing on both.
