    Reviews With Photos - Farmer Boys

    Joanna and I flew from Phoenix, AZ to Santa Ana, CA early this morning. First stop: Farmer Boys for breakfast. I got the three egg breakfast with eggs over easy, bacon and sourdough toast. Delicious! Joanna got the two egg breakfast sandwich with sausage. The food is delicious and the service is excellent

    I love me some Farmer boys especially for breakfast I've been going to multiple locations for many years like advertise quality food my one and only concern is the prices are a bit High these days I mean I had the ham and cheese omelet plate and that was $15 itself without a drink and then most of the sandwiches aren't too bad but charging $7 extra to make it a combo it pushes everything pretty high you know what I mean so I'm just trying to get the best bang for my dollar these days I still continue to come in forever boys just not as often as I used to they have a good product and I appreciate that

    This restaurant feels like a diner and its cozy vibe made me want to sit longer. The server was very lively and talkative. Food was also very quick. I tried some box sets which are around $9.99 each. It's smaller than most "American portion size" but I think it's just right for a meal (80% full) and it comes with fries and drinks. It tastes good but felt a bit like a fast food place. I guess I just didn't feel like it's fresh from farm, but an okay-to-good quick meal.

    The site - It's in a nice area in the business Irvine business parkers. Free standing building next to Homewood Suites, parking can be a challenge with hotel patrons parking in the designated spots The vibe - Very casual fast food. you order online and pickup or order inside. Some tables outside. Can get crowded at peak times. A lot of hotel people, and some mornings the Irvine PD is there. The food - The prices are higher than McDonald's and closer to fast casual sit down places. Two French Toast combos and one coffee was about $33. They have real fresh eggs cooked to order, not poured from box, the fried zucchini is large, fresh zucchini. onion rings are huge, and it's real bacon not precooked cheap tasting stuff like at fast food places. Burger are yummy. And you eat on real plates with silverware, not plastic. Find a seat or booth and they bring food to you if you eat time. The Service - Decent but when but slow at peak times. but the employees try to do their best with sometimes minimal staff. They'll refill you coffee Overall - good place for a more substantial quick bite On this visit, a family member and I met here for breakfast. We both had the French Toast. It was fully,. and large, and came with two eggs cooked to order and came with bacon. Can't remember if ham is still available, but you can also choose sausage. It took about 10 minutes to order to the time they brought the food. Everything was good, bacon was crispy, and they came by the check on coffee. I've also been here for lunch. I really like their burger combo with fried zucchini. It's always been cooked perfectly - large pieces with light breading with ranch dressing. You can also order large onion rings or French fries. Bathrooms are clean. My only complain is the rising prices but that's true or every restaurant these days.

    California Omelet
    Sylvie C.

    Placed the order from their website and everything was ready once I arrived. The food itself was ok.......nothing spectacular. I got the California omelette. I should have not ordered it with a side of fruits because all I can taste or smell was oranges and fruits. Not exactly the winning or tasty combination of things when you have a mouthful of eggs. This Farmer Boys is not far from area hotels and it's a good one to go to if you need some breakfast to pickup. Other than that, I would not go out of my way to get food there.

    Veggie Burger
    Lisa D.

    I stayed at the Homewood Suites and found the Farmer Boys for a quick dinner. They offer a discount for hotel guests. The woman that I placed my order with was the best! She answered my questions and also doesn't like pickles. So friendly and welcoming. I ordered the veggie burger which seemed to be made fresh in house. It was tasty! It had a dressing on it that was very good (just a light amount which was perfect). I had to have dessert and learned they have all day breakfast (what!?!), so ordered 3 French Toast sticks. I debated that vs a shake, but made the right choice. Delicious! And a way bigger portion than expected (oops). I would absolutely return. The restaurant was clean, had good music, yummy food, and a lovely staff. Recommended!

    Sourdough chicken sandwich

    My chicken sandwich meal costed $21 and took over 20 minutes to come out. Came with a tiny piece of chicken. I asked the workers about it and they said they are all that small. Not worth it.

    I tried the new Snacker Box at Farmer Boys, which is a great value - parm-crusted grilled cheese, chicken strips, fries, and a drink. Unfortunately, my sandwich was made incorrectly. The menu says it comes with 3 slices of American cheese and pepper jack, but mine only had American. One of the staff members (a man who had earlier helped fix an issue with the soda machine) came by my table and asked if everything was good. I explained that the sandwich was missing pepper jack and even showed him. He told me they "only put it on half," which was not true - I had already eaten half, and there was no pepper jack at all. He said he'd check with the cook, and I heard him confirm to the kitchen that it was indeed supposed to come with pepper jack. The disappointing part is that he never came back to update me, apologize, or offer a solution. I eventually had to go up to the counter myself, where he told me, "Oh yeah, they said they put it on half, but I told them that's wrong, so they'll make it right moving forward." That was it. No apology, no effort to make it right for me in the moment. I didn't expect a whole new sandwich, but at least acknowledging the mistake and showing some courtesy would have gone a long way. Instead, I was left feeling brushed off. I usually eat here often since it's close to work, but after this experience, it might be a while before I come back. The food is fine, but the lack of customer service was very disappointing.

    I tried Farmer Boys for the first time and got the fries and Sourdough Chicken Avocado Sandwich. The fries are delicious. Better than Whataburger. The Sandwich reminded me of the one at the Habit. It was definitely tasty. The service was quick and they were friendly. Plenty of seating inside. The Irvine location is right on a hotel lot so plenty of parking. I liked that they had fresh ranch, not packaged ones. Also yellow peppers. It added a lot of flavor to my meal. I would definitely try something else on the menu.

    The place is clean and spacious. I like that the service was fast and kind. The food for me was delicious I had the craving for a hamburger delicious flavor did the job in feeling this stomachs hunger.

    Sausage egg burrito
    Dr. Amelia H.

    Nice fatty burrito! This location didn't have the little extras of cilantro and tomatoes the one in Murrieta did but I ate the whole thing I by 11am. It's about 6 pm and I am not hungry. Hit the spot if looking for a way to get super full in the am & to last all day, get the burrito. Lots of construction workers were getting there's in the am, so a bit busy, and they are definitely onto something. A little skimpy on condiments only handing out a few at a time, but we had plenty from a few days prior from Murrieta location.

    This location is in the same parking lot as Homewood Suites. It's at the intersection of Red Hill Ave and Reynolds Ave. It's very close to MacArthur Blvd just off of the 55 freeway and the 405 freeway. It's along the way to work for me, so occasionally, I'll pick up breakfast here on the way into the office. It's super convenient to place your order and schedule it on their mobile app. My go-to item is their 3-egg breakfast with bacon and sourdough toast. It's a pretty hearty breakfast as the portion size is decent. Their prices are also good, so it's a good alternative to fast food.

    Loaded Fiery Fried Chicken Sandwich
    Juan B.

    I've ordered food twice from this Farmer Boys location and both times the food has been great! It's definitely more on the pricy side but that's been a theme with a lot of food places. Both times I've been to this location, the staff has been friendly. I ordered a loaded fiery chicken sandwich and an order of chili fries. The chicken was juicy and the quality of the sandwich was superb. The chili fries were very well seasoned and flavorful. I definitely will be coming back!

I usually feel rushed making menu choices when there's a line behind me, but this time, we were the only ones waiting, and the kids quickly decided on their breakfasts. Finding a table for four was effortless. The cashier was neutral--neither especially friendly nor rude, simply efficient at her job. My man really enjoyed his coffee, and I liked mine too, though I can't quite remember which kind of latte I ordered. We shared a Salmon Eggs Benedict--a perfect combination of poached egg, creamy hollandaise, and smoked lox. Delicious! My daughter ordered the kids' pancake with egg and bacon and said it was good. My partner's daughter opted for a huge breakfast burrito with chorizo--she liked it, but couldn't finish the generous portion. It was the perfect way to enjoy our final breakfast in Irvine.

At 7:25 pm, they brought us in and did not have a table ready for us. They made a table then after a table left 15 minutes later, they rearranged us. I do not understand why you offer reservations if you will not actually honor the system. Around 8 pm, we asked if we could order as they had only brought water. Listen I understand. You're closing soon. You only had 1 server for the entire restaurant the weekend of Valentines. You have to go lean on the busiest last weekend ..? I don't actually understand. When all came to, they were not offering dessert because "they were saving it for Valentine's Day". No notification about when their kitchen closed and no asks if anybody wanted to order for to-go. On top of that, everyone did not have free parking and had to pay upon exit even with validation. You will do great as a ghost kitchen since the food was good and everyone enjoyed it. If you come back as a full service, I would seriously reconsider how you do business.
