Farmer Boys

Great variety, friendly staff. Prices were great for the quality.

After my 4th meal here, breakfast and dinner, I can confidently say everything has been great. The staff are kind and I've not had to circle the whole dining room to find a clean table. The fried zucchini is astounding! It's as long as my forearm and since the pieces are so thick (a zucchini is just cut lengthwise in 4ths lol) it doesn't end up overcooked, and still has perfect texture. I don't know what oil they deep fry in but it doesn't overpower the taste of the vegetable, wow. The part-cornmeal breading has a perfect crunch, and doesn't sweat off. The fries are also cooked perfectly. The shakes taste like real, creamy, ice cream (+whipped cream!), and are thoroughly & evenly blended to a consistent texture. Awesome. Breakfast was great, with ample servings and eggs that weren't overcooked. The chicken was out of stock when I tried to order the spicy chicken sandwich, but the burgers are very good. I have found that the sauces aren't always evenly spread, twice I had a half dry sandwich until I found the pile of thousand island. That's a bummer. I also found the avocado to be too old for my tastes, and wiped it off my burger after paying extra for it. I love that ALL the seating in the dining room is padded. The tables are generously spaced, so there's enough room to walk around without having to make contact with other patrons. The bathroom has been stocked and reasonably clean every time I've used it, also the hand soap smells nice (whaaat?!?! A miracle!). The parking lot is in rough shape (like most of El Centro) and parking can be iffy when they're busy, particularly because they direct the drive-through line through parking spots. I'm not from around here, and not familiar with these restaurant chains. I'm elated I've learned never to mess with Rally's again, what a miserable waste that was when Farmer Boys is an option!

Food is always good, the items are pricey but the serving is big and delicious. Their vanilla cold brew always hits the spot. Sometimes it can be a while to place your order but it is understandable when they are busy.

Decent food and relatively fast service. I took some stars away because each time I order the cobb salad the lettuce is brown. The staff is friendly and other food items (breakfast and burgers) are good.

I decided to try out this business for a burger. It’s really good and fresh bacon and fries too. From what I saw on the menu the breakfast choices look great too. Definitely coming back here.
