Heading out to Gilbert for a meal at Joe's Farm Grill can feel like quite a trek if you're coming from Central Phoenix. But there's good reason this retro-futuristic restaurant is still popular with diners throughout the Valley.
It doesn't get more "farm fresh" than when you're eating a places within spitting distance of a farm. In fact, if you sit on the back patio at Joe's Farm Grill, you can enjoy views of the Agritopia urban farm.
There are plenty of hits on the restaurant's menu of All-American eats, each of which pairs excellently with a side of Joe's Farm Grill's onion rings. The thick slices of fresh onions are covered in layer of rosemary-dill Panko and then fried to a perfect golden-brown.
