    Stopped buy for first time and got a burger and fries. Burger was thick and delicious. Fries were cooked very good also. I went through the drive through but they have a very spacious dining area as wel

    Great salad.  Large portion

    Always a great visit here. Staff are pros, inside and outside always clean. No reason to complain about the food, it was fresh and hot and tasty Fries are the bomb!!!

    So good..

    Was out in Modesto on a work trip when I realized there was a farmer boys in my area. I'm used to only seeing these and southern California so I was excited. I had it on over there and ordered what I always order which is the barbecue ranch chicken salad sub the grilled chicken for fried chicken and it's perfect every single time. Literally the best "fast food" salad you can find in my opinion. As far as service goes, I was greeted right away. My order was taken right away. The person who took my order was friendly and accurate. I waited almost no time at all for my salad to come out and it was just as good as ever. This particular establishment was very clean, friendly and inviting. Anytime I'm in Modesto. I will be making sure I stop by this farmer boys to get a barbecue ranch chicken salad.

    French toast meal- breakfast for lunch in the best especially here. Toast fluffy, ham tasty, eggs cooked just right .

    Described as a healthy fast food place I was surprised how tasty it was and priced extremely well. Portions are huge . Staff friendly and fast. 100% recommend this place if you want an alternative to traditional fast food .

    Farmer Boys offers a solid fast food experience. There was no wait, and the large indoor seating area made for a comfortable dining experience. The menu has a wide variety of options, so there's something for almost everyone. My meal was tasty, but nothing so remarkable that I'd go out of my way to return. The customer service was just okay--nothing to write home about, but it didn't detract from the overall experience. Overall, if you're in the area and need a quick bite, Farmer Boys fits the bill, but it may not be somewhere I'd specifically plan to revisit.

    Man, wut can I say other than FB is consistent no matter the location. Consistently good that is. The hamburgers be hamburgerin forreal. And the fries drowned in ketchup go together like Martin & Gina. The employees at this location were amazingly sweet. So yea nuthin but high praises from me. Five starz Now check out the pics. That's it that's all.

    Fruit!

    So I ordered through doordash, I had eaten here before but tonight's was really good. I ordered the three egg breakfast and the portions were huge! You can't beat the price even at old school diners! And the side of fruit is why I am leaving the review!! Fresh sweet and good variety and plenty of it! My daughter had fish and chips and was happy with it. My son had a sandwich with chicken bacon and avacado! He loved it! Very pleased with our doordashed dinner.

    What are their ACTUAL hours right now? Thursday and Friday says 24 hours but I was there today (a Friday) at 6AM and it was pitch dark and nothing was open

    I just checked Google. It looks like their 24-hour days are Friday and Saturday.

    Wow! Don't know how we missed this place! Incredible staff and food! New favorite breakfast…read moreplace in Modesto!

    One of my new favorite places for breakfast & brunch. We waited over an hour in line and all worth…read morethe wait, next time I'll make reservations. I been wanting to try this place for a long time. I can't believe it took me this long to try them out. I was very pleased from start to finish. The service was excellent, the food was amazing and I was ultra impressed with the waitress explaining we can get gravy made with no pork and also for next time to ask for our home fried potatoes to also be cooked in non pork fat. ( I told her We don't eat pork ) It is so hard to find a place that offers no pork in their gravy. They went the extra mile to make us special non pork gravy on the spot, amazing. Also they fried our home fried potatoes in non pork oil, thats the extra extra mile of care and service and attending to a customers needs, I was completely satisfied. I cant wait to try more of the menu. Everything we ordered was good. The cinnamon bun was so good, I would go there just for that alone, yummy and fresh and moist and soft and so much frosting and yes I said and alot, AND? Haha Pro tip: if you dont eat pork ask for them to cook your potatoes in non pork oil and if you want gravy ask them to make non pork gravy. You have to mention it to your server, dont forget. Now go & enjoy, you can thank me later. Make reservations if possible or go on a slow day, the weekends are packed but worth the wait. They have alot of seating inside.

    Haven't been in here in a while and I am slapping myself for not going more often. I took my sons…read morehere for brunch and it was amazing. We had the country fried steak which was probably the best one I have ever had in my entire life! My sons had chorizo and eggs and the other one had chocolate pancakes, ham and eggs. We also got a Nutella Crepe because my youngest had never had a real crepe before. The food was all amazing. We cleaned every plate between a 47 year old, 13 & 8 year old! We couldn't stop eating!! The place was clean and for such a busy brunch we were sat very quickly! Service was amazing as well! The staff was so accommodating, friendly and professional! They were so hard working turning those tables over and checking on tables all the time. We didn't have to wait for plates to be cleared or refills of Iced Tea!! Like I said I can't believe I haven't been back to this place in such a long time but that is going to change!! I will be back as much as I can! Especially to support a local family owned restaurant!

    Tasty or WasteY???? Totally tasty !!!!…read moreI love everything about this place. I always get the Chilaquiles with green sauce. My husband gets different things on the menu when we go and he enjoys all of them. The only problem I have is it is so loud in there because it is such a small and confined restaurant. And I enjoy the live music being played. It's just such a tight confined little place. And you have to yell to talk to one another therefore everybody else here's your conversation. This is not a good place to go on a date or to get to know somebody over conversation. That's why you have Galletto's or Tresetti's down the street. But if you wanna go and have a quick breakfast, then this is the place. Though wait waitresses are always very, very nice. And the prices are great.

    I live in San Francisco, but I'm from the Central Valley, so I pass by Modesto every few months…read morewhen visiting my family. My friend from Modesto told me about this spot, and I immediately wanted to try it. I actually planned my drive around this pit stop, which was just a short detour off the 99. I ordered a biscuit with fried eggs and dear Lord, that biscuit was amazing, and so was the jam! The fried eggs were cooked perfectly and especially delicious with the hot sauces they had to offer. My brother got an egg sandwich on a brioche bun and he still can't stop talking about how good it was. He was particularly impressed with the brioche bun. We also got the blueberry french toast to go, which I didn't anticipate traveling very well, but it did and holy shit, it was fan-freaking-tastic when I ate it that evening. I can't even fathom how incredible it must be if eaten fresh. This place was so cute inside and clearly had an intentional aesthetic direction. There was a cute outdoor seating area in the front where I could have my dog with me, which is a huge plus. The service was top-notch and the food was ready lickety-split. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and attentive. I HIGHLY recommend this spot!!!

    GOODBYE LONGTIME, RELIABLE FRIEND! I've enjoyed Mimi's for…read moremore than a couple of decades--it's been a go to choice for lunch, brunch, and dinner! The atmosphere has always been enjoyable, and the food always satisfyingly delicious. On 1/17/26, I treated a dear friend to dinner after a matinee show at the Gallo Center. We both enjoy Mimi's--sadly, not any more!! My French Pot Roast entree was luke-warm over piping hot mashed potatoes--huh...hmmm...?? Her Hibachi Salmon entree had undercooked rice--WHAT?!! (Chef's night off?? These are worse than NOVICE mistakes!!) This was prime dinner time on a Saturday evening--and, by-the-way...no manager in sight. The place was unusually quiet--few customers, only sparse regulars. As a side note: our server was being given recommendations for work at other restaurants by a couple of her "regulars." She wasn't too concerned about our substandard entrees; said she'd tell the kitchen, but "couldn't do anything about it." WOW! Management not available--probably also looking for other work?! Our dessert--apple crisp crumble--was tasty, yet more soft than crisp. I figured, WHY leave a review--the place was more-than-likely going under...?! This evening (4-months later) I was surprised when Mimi's came up under recommendations. I thought they'd be closed by now. Be forewarned--Mimi's is NOT what it used to be!! SO SAD, but I will not be returning! (My late father was a successful and celebrated chef from back East. As chain restaurants go...Mimi's was "ON" his list--especially the Modesto location. I'm relieved he's not alive to see its sad and disappointing demise!)
