15 Best Fast Food Restaurants in La Quinta

“Burgers and Beer is a cool spot I found nearby EOS. The place looked pretty big from the outside, so I asked my partner if she wanted to do an early dinner. I noticed they have daily specials, but be mindful that they usually serve from 11-3, and after that, the happy hour menu takes over till 6.
We originally came for the tuesday burger deal, but we arrived after 3, we still ordered a burger and decided to try the machaca chimichangas from the HH menu. The service was great, thanks Javier. I really appreciated the variety, not just food and beers, but sports on TV too.
The only thing was that the bottom bun of the burger was very soggy, our server joked its gravity’s fault...
Maybe adding a crisp, dry lettuce layer underneath could help. Overall, great vibes and a fun place to chill and hang out.“

“Juicylicious burger..one of a kind“

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

“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.“

“7 months ago-Edit This is so much more than a sandwich or lunch. This is high quality products at a fair price. More over, the staff is friendly and the owner is so involved in the community and so giving and philanthropic. I cannot help but want to solicit his business more because of this!“

“The girl who works mornings (says Jazmyn on receipt) is the sweetest and kindest personality every time I stop by. That kind of consistency deserves a raise just for her pleasantry and I hope she does well and prospers in life. Taco Bell, good hire. ??? Ya did good.“

“Excellent staff, management & food offerings“

“So the night shift here at the Deltaco on hwy 111 and Washington in La Quinta ca were so nice got my order correct and it never felt so good to have fresh hot food from a Deltaco that was not only fast and efficient but also through on my order“

“very very good...... i love the bacon“

“Great food great service great price 5+ stars thank you“

“Just tried the much hyped "Smashburger" with a chocolate shake. It was good. I would put it up against the Dbl Cheeseburger at In&Out although they taste completely different. It's an $8.00 burger so you are paying a premium price“

“I like subway. But the increase on prices is ridiculous. Better up their game or file for bankruptcy. 50 dollars for 1 six inch and two footlongs and a bag of chips. Yikes. Won't be going back for a while. Much cheaper to make fresh sandwiches at home.“

“recently visited Panda Express and I have to say, this location truly stands out when it comes to consistency, cleanliness, and overall customer experience.

From the moment I walked in, the restaurant felt welcoming and well-maintained. The dining area was spotless, with neatly arranged tables and a modern, organized layout that made it easy to sit down and enjoy a meal comfortably. Even during a busy time, the staff kept everything clean and presentable, which is something I always appreciate when dining out.

The service was efficient and friendly. The team behind the counter moved quickly while still being attentive to each customer. They were patient, answered questions about menu items, and made sure portions were generous. It’s clear that the staff here takes pride in delivering a positive experience rather than just rushing through orders.

Now let’s talk about the food — exactly what you expect from Panda Express, but done right. Everything looked fresh, hot, and well-prepared. The Orange Chicken had the perfect balance of crispiness and flavor, the chow mein was cooked just right, and the fried rice had great texture without being overly greasy. You can tell the food turnover is high here, which means you’re getting freshly made items instead of something that’s been sitting too long.

One thing that really stood out to me was the consistency. Whether you’re a regular Panda Express customer or trying it for the first time, this location delivers that familiar taste you’re looking for — but with an extra level of care in both presentation and service.

The location itself is also very convenient, right off CA-111 in La Quinta, making it an easy stop whether you’re local or just passing through. Parking is simple, and the overall accessibility adds to the smooth experience.

Overall, I would highly recommend this Panda Express location to anyone looking for a quick, reliable, and satisfying meal. Between the clean environment, friendly staff, and consistently good food, this spot definitely earns a solid 5-star experience. I’ll definitely be coming back again.

The service stood out right away. The staff was friendly, efficient, and attentive without making the experience feel rushed. Even during a steady flow of customers, they kept the line moving quickly while still making sure each order was handled properly. It’s always a good sign when employees are working together smoothly, and that’s exactly what I noticed here.

The food was fresh and flavorful, which is what keeps me coming back to Panda Express. The Orange Chicken was perfectly crispy with just the right amount of sauce, and the chow mein had a great texture and taste. Everything looked fresh on the line, and the portions were generous, making it a great value for the price.

Another thing I appreciated was the consistency. You know what to expect from Panda Express, and this location delivers it at a high level. It’s a reliable spot when you want something quick but still satisfying.“
