Mendocino Farms to open 2nd Arizona location in 2026

A new salad and sandwich shop will be opening its 2nd Arizona location at The Scottsdale Promenade in 2026 as Mendocino Farms continues its national expansion. Currently there are approximately 80 locations in Scottsdale (Gainey Ranch), California, Colorado, Washington, and Texas. The concept is known for its seasonal sandwiches and dishes that include popular menu items including “Happy Hippie,” a veggie-heavy sandwich served on toasted honey whole wheat, and the “Not So Fried Chicken,” a healthier take on a traditional chicken sandwich, to the “Baja Green Goddess” salad and “Corn and Hatch Chile Soup.”

“Arizona has been a key growth market on our list as we continue expanding our footprint across the U.S.,” said Kevin Miles, CEO of Mendocino Farms. “When determining where to introduce our brand to the state, The Promenade stood out for its strong visibility, high foot traffic, and complimentary retail environment, which will allow us to make a meaningful first impression in the market. We look forward to joining Scottsdale’s vibrant dining scene and creating a welcoming space for guests to gather and enjoy delicious, fresh meals when we open in 2026.”

Once opened, the new Mendocino Farms will be at Scottsdale Road and Paradise Lane will be over 3,000 square feet and include a 500-foot patio. The family-owned concept was founded in 2005, and its mission is to help guests “eat happy”, offering guests chef driven elevated takes on classic lunch and dinner fare.

“We are very proud that Mendocino Farms has chosen to open their first location in the state at Scottsdale Promenade, and we’re confident it will quickly become a local favorite,” said Harrison Cole, Leasing and Development Manager at Vestar. “Their commitment to feel-good food made with wholesome, high-quality ingredients makes them a perfect fit for this health-conscious community.”

The chef & owner of the Downtown Phoenix won Best Chef: Southwest this week after being nominated with 11 other Arizona restaurant professionals. The list was whittled down to Martin and Crystal Kass of Valentine for Outstanding Pastry Chef/ Baker. The winners were announced this week at a ceremony in Chicago. 

Larder + Delta has closed 

The short-lived James Beard nominated restaurant from Chef Stephen Jones closed its Central Phoenix restaurant this week after less than a year of being open. The restaurant relocated last year from the Roosevelt Row Arts District taking the place of another JBF nominee, Binkley’s that closed in 2023. The southern style fine dining restaurant was struggling with low business as the summer began. Chef Jones had announced some changes last week pertaining to summer hours and the menu but unfortunately that wasn’t enough, and the restaurant became the first victim of the summer.
