“I am visiting Palm Springs for a tradeshow this weekend and dropped in to Maxcy's Grill for breakfast. From the omelets to the French toast, everything was on point. I lobe the atmosphere of all the retired veterans. We were lucky to get there right before the crowd. You have to order first and then sit down so there could be a line right when you walk in, but it moves really quickly. We got the Ranchero Omeltye and the French toast special with eggs and bacon. Overall, it was a fun little greasy spoon, and I would come back.

Parking: Plenty of parking

Wheelchair accessibility: ♿️ accessible through front doors.“

“This is a strip mall spot 2ith plenty of parking, with appx 24+ tables inside and a few outside, this greasy spoon appears to be a local favorite. Everything off the grill looks hot, fresh, and tasty!The place has ceiling fans and AC going full blast to cool down the large crowd who love this spot. It's non and most of the patrons are ordering breakfast. Maybe I screwed up? I'll find out soon enough.I opted for the double cheese pastrami burger and fries, and my boy went with the "Cali Burrito". Pro tip - get them fries well doneMy burger was very good, but the pastrami could have been less fatty, shaved leaner. The fries were the typical frozen fries. The Cali burrito was giant and very good.The staff is very friendly and seem to know many of the patrons.Mens room is a single stall, and was a little dirty.

Parking: Plenty of stripmall parking.“

“Sloan's is tremendous! My favorite restaurant in the Coachella Valley and I've lived here for 46+ years. Just the finest quality ingredients in everything on their menu and the service is always superb. We drive an hour each way to visit Sloan's and it never disappoints. In this modern-day world of a "take it or leave it" attitude at many restaurants it's refreshing to find a restaurant who's staff actually care about their customers and take pride in offering a great product and a great value. The food here is exceptional and the servers are top-notch professionals in every way. The food is always the absolute freshest anywhere and it really shows. Such a delightful place and I always recommend Sloan's very highly.“

“First time at Applebees. I had seen a news article about them competing in the food price wars by bringing in a $9.99 sandwich, fries and a drink. You can choose from a fried chicken sandwich, a grilled chicken sandwich, a bacon cheeseburger, a regular cheeseburger or the fake meat burger. I had the bacon cheeseburger, fries and a rootbeer.
Not having been here before I found the curbside pickup and as I was pulling in to the parking space I was looking to see how you contact them to let them know you're there. Before my car was in park, a side door opened and the nicest man with a big smile on his face walked out and up to my window. I was thinking he's confused me with another person. As I went to open my window to let him know this, he said my name and I said yes, and he hands me my food. I'm sure my jaw was on the floor and said Wow, now that's service.
I leave and head back to work. I opened the box to hot, crisp fries which I immediately dug into. No ketchup even needed. Now for the burger.
When I tell you this burger was ½ inch thick I'm not exaggerating. It was cooked to perfection, the bacon crisp, and the fries were hot and crisp. They only serve Pepsi products and I don't care for most so I chose root beer. It was a nice change.
They've definitely won over a new customer, well as long as there is a $9.99 option.“

“Best Chavelas in Indio! I have tried the chavelas from many places around town and I can honestly say Frosties is the best tasting. Served in nice frosty glasses with a appetizer cocktail shrimp for garnish. I will definitely be going back to try some of the food offerings, unfortunately when we arrived they had just closed so we could not order much. I will say even though it was closed Noe let us stay and enjoy our chavela while he finished cleaning up which we thought was very nice. Noe was very accomodating to his customers. I did get a fruit salad for my daughter and she really enjoyed being able to add her own condiments and sauces as she wanted.“

“INDIO’s BEST MALTS! Lique is a hidden gem nestled inside Fantasy Springs Resort & Casino. It’s known for its ice cream, frozen yogurt, shakes, floats, malts, sundaes and amazing American fare. I’ve tried different items each time and all of them have been phenomenal. The ice cream is amazing, the shakes are nice and thick, and my recent malt was one the THEE best I’ve ever had. Malts can be made with ANY ice cream flavor that is available. I had mine made with cookies and cream, a major recommendation from me!

The malts were $8 bucks each, it’s a bit pricey but they use some of the best ingredients that I didn’t even care! I’ve tried the food and it’s also mouthwatering. There were good-sized hotdogs, pizzas and burgers available. The place is always packed and with good reason. The staff are super friendly and professional. The ladies working the front registers were cashiers AND order trackers. I appreciated that they were nice and loud when my order was ready! It’s louder in here so it’s very helpful. My order came out fast.

I spotted plenty of seating areas, however since it’s always packed it’s hard to find a seat for a group, let alone one person. You can always take your food outside as there’s an entrance to the Rockyard amphitheater nearby that has many more tables.“
