Verdict
Farmer Boys and Del Taco both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 65% of Farmer Boys's written reviews are positive against 10% of Del Taco's. Farmer Boys also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 18.0). Del Taco's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months) and chart position (#117 vs unranked). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
