Mendocino Farms adds to DFW presence
November 8, 2022
Mendocino Farms, a fast casual brand serving sandwiches and salads, is opening next month in Preston Hollow at 10720 Preston Road, marking the chain's fifth store in the Dallas area since it entered the market in 2020.
"When we opened our first location in downtown Dallas, we sought to be a go-to for the community, and it's been incredible to see Mendocino Farms become that gathering place," CEO Kevin Miles said in a company press release. "Our raving fans are constantly asking us to open more locations, and Preston Hollow is one of our most requested neighborhoods. We're eager to open our doors in November."
In an effort to strengthen the community, Mendocino Farms is partnering with Vickery Meadow Youth Development Foundation, donating 50% of Preston Hollow opening day sales to support the nonprofit in empowering Vickery neighborhood youth to reach their full potential. Additionally, local schools can host a Give Back fundraiser at Mendocino Farms during the first three months of opening and receive 50% of their group's proceeds.
"We have something for every palate at Mendocino Farms, from our chef-inspired spins on well-known classics to our kid's menu," Miles said in the release. "We merge adventurous eating with comfort food, turning flavors you'd find in a fine dining restaurant into an approachable, high-quality meal. We're encouraging our guests to try flavors they've never had before, which is why we have our 'foodie pledge' – if they order something they don't like, they can try another dish on the house."
Founded in Southern California in 2005 by husband-and-wife team Mario Del Pero and Ellen Chen, Mendocino Farms has grown to 51 locations.
