Even though I constantly heard great things about Farmer Boys, I haven't visited a single location in all of my time in the Greater LA Area. That's why when I came across the Ontario outpost of Farmer Boys, I figured I'd stop in and see how their food compared to the more recognizable fast food spots. Coming into the restaurant at 5:30PM on a Sunday, most of the tables were empty. But as peak dinner hours arrived, almost every seat in the restaurant was full. Definitely stop in earlier to grab a seat! Looking at the menu for the first time, I noticed Farmer Boys serves a range of foods. Even though the emphasis was clearly on the burgers, they happen to serve breakfast plates, sandwiches, salads, and more. Many of the items seemed appetizing. But wanting to start with the basics, I decided on a Natural Burger ($8.50), an order of Always Crispy Fries ($3.39), and a Strawberry Shake ($5.79). When ordering at the counter, the cashier asked the typical "for here or to-go" question most of us are familiar with. But what surprised me is that the cashiers served the food right to my table upon completion! Because of this, Farmer Boys came off as more of a fast casual restaurant instead of the typical quick service spot. Looking at the food for the first time, I was initially surprised by the quality of the ingredients. The burger caught my eye first with a smooth bun and stake down the middle. In addition, the fries on the side were golden brown which signified to me that they were made fresh. The size of the burger was quite large and the fries were generous which was appreciated. Even though the burger was priced high at $8.50, the price to portion ratio was good. Looking at the shake next, I was happy to see the generous serving of whipped cream on top. But besides the whipped cream, the shake was a similar size to other shakes at this price point. With that said, the price to portion for the shake in the Ontario area was standard. Farmer Boys does not appear to be much of a place at first glance. But after trying their food, I would definitely return again! Starting with the burger, I found the bun to be somewhat sweet which complemented the sauce and pickles inside. The cheese created a somewhat creamy texture that added some depth to the burger. But out of all the ingredients, the meat was definitely the best part. Because of the volume of ground beef given, the patty was quite juicy! I appreciated that the beef was only lightly seasoned as it emphasized the more intense items. Moving to the fries next, each piece was more soggy than expected. But because they were larger than your typical order of fries, it was easily explainable. Although the potatoes tasted fresh, they were lacking salt. Looking at the strawberry shake last, I felt that I should have started with it first. The whipped cream tasted rich, almost as if it was made in-house. Compared to other shakes, the whipped cream had volume to it and added a more "milky" taste. As for the shake itself, it definitely tasted like it was made from real fruits and ice cream. In fact, the shake had small bits of strawberry inside which helped give hints of texture to the thick drink. I would definitely enjoy a meal at Farmer Boys again. Although there were some small things that could be improved here and there, the food was pretty solid overall. The prices are somewhat high if on the more frugal side. But for those willing to spend extra for added quality Farmer Boys is a good option. For those unfamiliar with Farmer Boys, definitely don't overlook this fast food spot. The quality of the ingredients is just as good (if not better) than many of your common fast food favorites.

Good quality... Sadly... Farmer Boys slogan is "Farm Fresh". Yet they have unhealthy near "plastic" foods like "Margerine" & "creamer".

This farmer boys location always forgets an item in the drive through. Always check your food and don't just trust them. People need to take their job seriously.

Eva took the order at the Cash register. She made sure the coffee was topped off and checked in with us more than most staff at a restaurant. Amazing experience. I live close by and this is now my first choice for any meal of the day I eat out!

I've been here a few times. It is hit or miss on the lunch rush. Some days they are quite busy and others they are not. On the most recent visit, a co-worker and I stopped in for lunch. It took about 25 minutes to get our food. The folks bringing out the food were giving some of the customers coupons due to the wait. If you have a leisurely lunch schedule, you may not mind the wait.

The food was dry by the time it was left on the waiting counter. If you know that 12:00am is the time people arrive, why? They leave only one person attending. Poor

Doesn't seem like they're very interested in customer service at least the lady that was helping us with our order.I did see the lower ratings and I do eat at Farmer Boys a lot, and it proved to be true. It seems they're not really interested in customer service, and the quality of their food is not that great.That did not seem like a 3 egg omelet: Thin because after I moved the bread to eat the rest of the omelet, I could not believe how "small" this 3 egg omelet was.
Love it!
