“great dbl cheeseburger and fries. unlike other places they leave you alone while you're eating. unless of course they see you putting ketchup on your burger ( right cory!) been a resident of the desert for 48 years, never been to George's before yesterday. I will be back.“

“Everything we ordered was delicious. I had chicken tenders w/onion rings to share, hub had western burger w/fries, and son had cheeseburger. We had a mix of fountain drinks and bottled Coke. Afterward, we finished with chocolate shakes for all, which were yummy as well.

We ordered at the counter, then staff served our food to our table on trays. He was pleasant, helpful and efficient. I could tell that he anticipated what we might need and stayed a step ahead. Thx for that!

Clean restrooms. Clean tables and booths. There was even an outlet at our seat to charge phone.

5+ stars!“

“SUPPORT THIS LOCAL BUSINESS!

This place is affordable, delicious and serves huge portions. Period! Ignore the people saying otherwise in these comments...

My only feedback is the dining room gets a tad smoky on occasion due to the location of the grill.

SUPPORT THIS LOCAL BUSINESS! They went through a lot with certain ICEy activities in their parking lot. We need to rally around local business in the year 2026!“

“great eats and great service“

“I've been a big fan of In-N-Out since their existence. I have been in many in the state of California. This one in particular stands out because of their location and the preparation of their hamburgers. Most In-N-Out hamburgers are great but this one seemed a little bit better than the rest. It was hard to find and there was very few people inside . Maybe five people.this is the third time I've been to this particular location
Maybe it's the heat in Palm desert, 110 degrees. But I'll be back for sure“

“Great burger and French fries“

“Staff is so helpful and fun to be with, the cocktails are wonderful and wine is lovely, and the food choices are incredible!“

“best food“

“Great neighborhood hole in the wall Mexican Restaurant behind CVS on Vista Chino and Landau Blvd.“

“Literally a quaint Little Bar in the heart of Palm Desert. Great drinks and a welcoming atmosphere with a down home menu. A touch of the LA music scene is the desert. The burgers are awesome!“

“My husband and I tried shake shack for the first time ever, and it was amazing!! The food was so good and fresh. John was amazing as well. He helped us order, answered all our questions, and he made us feel so welcomed. John brought our food to our table, asked us if we needed anything, and in between customers he would walk the floor and check on everyone. He was very sweet.“

“Great food! Great service! Not sure if this is one of their things, but I kind of think it is after reading other reviews, because the food and drinks we ordered were delivered to us very fast. My husband had a draft beer from the bar that was served ice cold in a perfectly chilled glass. We started our meal with a classic wedge salad. I have to say that I did not expect this to be on the menu of a “burger joint” but so glad it was. It was a generous portion with the all the classic elements. The standout here was the bacon on the salad. It was freshly made and perfectly cooked. My husband had the smash burger and I had the Chicago dog. So many times at other burger places it seems that the bun overshadows their burgers but not here. And the hotdog here had a very nice hint of sweetness in its pickle relish. So delicious! We also had a half order of the regular fries. You can tell that they are house made and not frozen. They are seasoned and have a nice light coat of salt. Yummy! We splurged for a strawberry malt to finish our meal. Wow! It was served in a classic ice cream fountain style glass and accompanied by the big silver metal cup that they used to make and mix it in. What a value. It was more than enough for two full glasses. Nothing like the real thing when it comes to a strawberry malt. They deserve to be on anyone’s radar when looking for a delicious restaurant with outstanding service.“

“Food is good. Red Menudo is delicious! Highly recommend it. The chili oil they make in house is phenomenal has a great taste. Also got the pancake plate it was very good the kids got the chicken tenders they were also good very fresh. Ranch taste like mayo that’s probably the worst thing I could say about this place. 10/10 will be back.“

“A drive thru and look at this food! It's all good, but I'm really here to send mass Love to Chris. He really brings a friendly, community spirit to the drive thru. I was feeling some kinda way. He lifted my spirit with a few quick words and a whole lot of wise understanding. I KNOW I'll be returning to see how Chris is doing when I'm back in town. Now that my vibe has been nourished, I'm excited to savor this meal. ✌️“

“I stopped in to grab some lunch and noticed they had one of my favorite dishes on their menu. Camarones Ala Diabla, so I thought I'd give it a try since everything I've ever ordered from this place has always been delicious. Well I was not disappointed, there were plenty of shrimp in a spicy red sauce, served with rice, beans and tortillas. The sauce was very tasty without overwhelming me. Definitely going back for this dish and so much more!“

“SIL and I spent the weekend in Palm Desert to attend a concert and we are always looking out for new places to eat. This place did not disappoint! Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted by a nice gentleman and he showed us to our table and gave us all the names of his employees that day and told us if we didn’t like a service to be sure to let him know. Dani was our server and our food was brought out quickly to our table and it was nice and hot. Pancakes were a good size and the meals were satisfying. Dani was pleasant and checked on us to ensure we were satisfied or needed anything else. Very good menu selection. Something for everyone. We got there around 9 o’clock on a Saturday and it was not crowded.“

“We came on a pretty busy holiday weekend but we're super impressed. Everyone on staff worked hard to offer an exceptional experience to the guest, and that's exactly what we got. The food came out fast and everything tasted great. The drinks by Hunter awesome. Dana the manager was busy and still took time to greet us and make sure we were satisfied. We were, thus highly recommend this Islands for a casual, comfortable dining experience.“

“Very good customer service, great food made from scratch.“

“My husband and I decided to stop in to Red Robin in La Quinta about 2 weeks ago since we have not been there for many years due to our diet. We had a great experience with our server, Edwin. He was the best....on top of everything and more!! We were craving your onion rings and hamburgers, which we do not eat very often....so it was treat. We had to share both items due to our small appetites. We were impressed with how the split was done - different from other restaurants and thanked Edwin as well. It truly made us feel special and with the follow-up and service Edwin provided, we will return more often, and, coming back next week with friends. Thank you!!

“Bomb happy hour. But Hey La Quinta has Clamato“

“Great spot to stop and have lunch.“

“I took my mother to eat here and it was an incredible experience! I highly recommend Jose. His exceptional service truly made our meal special. My mother got the poblano omelette and I got a classic burger with bacon and we enjoyed our food and service! We will definitely come back again!“

“Goody's is great. I've never eaten anything off the menu that I didn't like. There's multiple Goody's across the valley, this one happens to be across the street from the Flying J truck stop and makes it convenient for drivers to whom I would say, I would highly recommend eating there before tanking up on the fast food joints that are just down the street. Breakfast, lunch or dinner there's something for everybody and they serve it all, all day long.“

“Isabel waited on us in the store and was very kind and helpful. She was amazing w us despite being very obviously super busy w high volume/business!! Very happy w this establishment. Is a wonderful asset to this place of business 🥰“

“First of all the cleanest burger king I think i've ever seen in my life. Teresa was so kind and professional. Also as a vegan I'm grateful for a cheap and fast vegan option in the Impossible whopper. The perfect ending to my wonderful coachella experience.“

“Outdoor dining only here Shady at 1-2pm“

“the burgers.... are the best, your choice of toppings.“

“We love papa headz! never had a bad burger and fries“

“Once I get rid of the AI Robot order taker he started talking to a person. My order was much easier to. The AI order taker is very confusing and has a very long lag and it makes it hard to do an order quickly. Because of the AI robot order taker I mostly avoid Carl’s Jr..“

“Jada was amazing! She greeted us with a big smile and was super friendly from the moment we walked in. Even though it was busy, she stayed positive, kept everyone moving, and made us feel welcome. She was helpful, professional, and had such a great attitude that it made the whole experience even better. You can tell she really cares about the customers. Thanks, Jada, for making our visit so enjoyable—we’ll definitely be back!“

“I'm 61 and I've been going there since I was around 6 or seven years old. My dad took me there on our way to salton sea fishing. We would stop at the bait store next door. The foundation is still there. I had lunch there today and just love the double cheeseburgers and fries. My uncle Kenny worked at the gas station there before I was born. Lots a memories.😁“

“This place is my all time favorite restaurant to eat in the Coachella Valley. Buzz always has the best recommendations for beer, the cocktails are fantastic, and the food is always fresh and tasty. We lived in Palm Desert for about 11 years and every time we’re back in town we make sure to come by here to grab a drink and some snacks. We love getting to see Buzz, he makes it the best place to eat!“

“Haven't been here in years. It really has gotten better! We definitely enjoyed our lunch. The spicy honey mustard grilled chicken sandwich was fantastic. And the southwestern chicken bowl was great too. Super awesome service!! She was very thorough and gracious. We really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you. We'll be back.“

“Absolutely clean! Restrooms were clean, the front counter as you walked ot was shinning lol. We came in for lunch around 12 and it was clean and didnt stink like practically any other carls does here in the valley. Great customer service from the woman manager and Yolanda who took our order.

Loved all the old school nostalgic paintings/ portraits.“

“Good honest food great service“
