    Grilled chicken salad
    Raquel P.

    This is a fantastic place to have onion rings and their parmesan crusted bread for their chicken bacon avocado sandwich is a reason to stop by. Farmer boys have the best salads. I have tried all of them and they are all sensational. The bbq chicken one is my all time favorite. Overall this place makes all their food fresh to order and they have a great customer service, clean restaurant and clean restrooms. I recommend getting their app to benefit from their loyalty rewards and fantastic food offers.

    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

    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.

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

Chicken Fried Chicken w/ buttermilk biscuit and home fries - 5/5 Huge portions. The strawberry jam was so good. Everything was seasoned well. Tri-tip Philly w/fries -5/5 The waiter suggested au jus on the side and that just elevated the sandwich. Housemade cinnamon roll just a single was HUGE and delicious as well.

Located in a somewhat industrial area bordering the countryside, it feels like a well-kept local secret--but judging by the crowd, the secret is definitely getting out. We arrived early and were told that the restaurant would become busy. Sure enough, within about 15 minutes, the entrance was jam-packed with people waiting for tables. We were also told that if we had waited until 11:00, we might never have gotten in! The Biscuit Basket serves breakfast and lunch only, and apparently plenty of people know to arrive early. The interior has a pleasant, country-simple décor that feels comfortable and welcoming. Even more impressive was the exceptionally friendly staff. Our server, Adrian, was personable and attentive. He checked on us several times, kept the coffee filled, and made sure the tea was taken care of. Another gentleman delivered our meals and also took time to talk with us. He asked whether we needed anything else and enthusiastically described our selections as some of their best dishes. He was not merely delivering plates--he was proud of what he was serving and continued selling the experience as he went along. The food was delicious. We had biscuits and gravy, I had an omelet, and we both had fresh fruit. Sharon particularly remarked on the quality of the fruit, and I noticed it as well. Restaurants sometimes serve fruit that is underripe or past its prime, but this appeared to have been selected carefully. Everything was fresh, properly ripe, and right on point. We also learned that the people behind the Biscuit Basket have connections to several other successful local restaurant businesses associated with Dan Costa. That experience certainly shows. From the food and service to the smallest details, everything was done exactly right. The Biscuit Basket easily earns five out of five stars--and deserves bonus credit for getting the entire experience right. It was wonderful to see a local business doing so well, and we will definitely return.

They rolled with it without hesitation, which I always appreciate. My wife was meeting me a little later, and they timed everything beautifully. The food was on the table only about five minutes before she arrived, and with warm sandwiches and soup involved, the timing mattered. Everything was just the right temperature when we sat down to eat. We both ordered the Uptown Gal--roast beef, giardiniera, Dijon aioli, arugula, and white cheddar on house focaccia. The flavors were spot on, and these are substantial sandwiches. In fact, next time we could probably share one. We also shared the jalapeño Parmesan artichoke dip, which was excellent. We enjoyed some there and brought the rest home. The soups didn't have the same opportunity--we polished those off pretty quickly. Very flavorful. The iced tea was clearly freshly brewed and quite strong, which I actually prefer because I can adjust it to taste. It came in a generously sized glass as well. Lucille is a small place, but they've made very good use of the space. The interior is attractive and has a slightly modern, new-age feel. There was a steady stream of people dining in and picking up orders, and it wouldn't take many more customers to fill the place. I also noticed a nice wine selection and an espresso machine. One other thing stood out: the employees seemed genuinely happy to be there. Lots of smiles and a pleasant atmosphere throughout our visit. Excellent food, generous portions, good timing, and a staff willing to accommodate a customer who showed up a little ahead of schedule. An easy five stars from us.

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!)
