"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!"

"The restaurant was about 1/3 full and we waited 2-3 minutes in line to place our order. Nothing seemed a miss overall. My order was taken and I received the receipt at 9:46am. My wife and I ordered a hamburger, a BLT single piece of fish (this was myfirst time to Farmer Boys so I wanted to have a taste, which was included in the bill). We waited in the lobby with the flagnumber (40) in plain view. And we continued to wait, and wait. Other customers stood in line, ordered their food and left withtheir order, while we waited some more. At 10:26 (40 minutes after placing the order) I approached the service counter andrequested a refund. The manager promptly refunded my money while never offering an apology or expressing any kind of remorse forhaving taken more than 40 minutes to complete a 10 minute order. What did they do for 30 minutes with my ticket?! TheManagement's inability to control and supervise the employees and the product was a textbook demonstration of buffoonery inaction. Incompetence is the only descriptor that applies to this situation. This experience reflects poorly on the Farmer Boysname as well as on the community in which the operate. So I wasted an hour of my time with the Riverside Farmer Boys on thisday. I will try Farmer Boys again, but likely at another location. There are good restaurants in Riverside. This Farmer Boys isnot one of them. The lobby and exterior of the building was clean and orderly."
