24 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Palm Desert

“Came here EARLY to secure my son’s favourite take-out meal for his schools ‘lunch on the lawn’. Even though it wasn’t lunchtime, they had my meal ready immediately so I could get back on the road. Leilani was supremely kind and packaged my son’s takeout bag extra special. 🙏🏼 It’s experiences such as these that often go unnoticed, and that society needs more of. Thank you Chick-fil-A Palm Desert 🙏🏼“

“Clean and unique. Worth stopping for a bite. Good food and great service.“

“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.“

“Angel is THE man. I had a bit of a complicated order due to diet restrictions for my mom, who's currently going through some medical treatments. He was patient and worked with me as I asked about options and produced a--dare I say--FIRE🔥custom pie for me! Him, his co-worker (didn't get her name,🤦🏽‍♂my b), the pizza...and those doggone cookies that I couldn't leave without 🥹...the Real MVPs of the night. You never know who you help or the role you play in their lives, so this one's for you, brother. May God bless the PD Blaze Pizza and it's staff (and the families they provide for). May it break all milestones, exceed profit projections and be a standard-bearer in health code, food quality, and customer service for the brand for years to come. Let it remain blessed with favor, and any who would bring it harm or discredit (customer, critic, or future employee) receive back on themselves what they would try to do to the property, it's faithful employees, or its patrons. And may Angel, who directly helped me care for my only mother, never be in lack of any need or provision in his life. In Jesus name, Amen. Thank you for your kindness.“

“The service is very fast and efficient. My husband loves their famous beef cheddar sandwiches and I go for the French dip. I’m not a curly fry person, but their regular fries are very tasty. No complaints at all.“

“Jimmy John’s in Palm Desert has become one of my go-to spots for a great lunch, whether I’m eating in, meeting with a client, or picking up an order to take to a client’s office.

I brought a client in today and once again had a fantastic experience. I had the Chicken Caesar Wrap combo, and it was excellent—fresh, flavorful, filling, and an amazing value for the quality and portion. The sandwiches and wraps here are consistently great, service is quick, and everything is always fresh.

A big part of what makes this location stand out is owner Brian Murphy. Brian genuinely cares about his customers, provides excellent service, and takes pride in delivering a great experience and great value. That personal involvement makes a difference and is one of the reasons I continue coming back.

For anyone in Palm Desert or the surrounding Coachella Valley looking for a quick, fresh, affordable lunch, I highly recommend this Jimmy John’s location. It's especially convenient for business lunches, catering, or grabbing sandwiches and wraps to bring into an office.“

“First time at the Which Wich Shop. Small and clean shop, yet comfortable. The food is a bit pricey, but the food tasted very good. I love getting Tuna Melts, their tuna tasted fresh and I love the bread, it's not super thick but dense and filling. Would come back and try their other sandwiches.“

“Excellent as always! Wopper Jr. And onion rings cooked to perfection!“

“Sandwiches are super fresh and delicious! Also they sell Stubborn soda which is delicious as well!“

“Great Food! Excellent service, and in a wonderful location. I’ll be eating here regularly“

“So I had two coupons I wanted to use, and the person at the front, Ivan, basically told me I forgot one of them was an online order.

He was real nice about it, gave me a cup for water and even let me order it online and told me about the free wifi (didn’t know about). He was cool and the food was good so I’m happy it all worked out!“

“There were two employees. One took my order, one made the sandwich. Polite. I didn't have to wait at all. And the sandwich was delicious. I had not had one of their subs in 5 years. I will probably have one awake for the rest of the year.“

“Wonderful, staff here they are fast friendly and know how to handle unruly customer! I was impressed with how they managed has hostile situation from a foul mouth customer, no one deserves to be spoken to that way! The client was out of line cussing them out infront of kids. They politely asked him to leave until he got the message“

“My granddaughters go to place. we go each time she is in town“

“I rarely review fast food, but my experience at this location was so good, I felt compelled. This store was clean, the food was fast and hot. The elderly lady that took our order (I wish I got her name for this review) was so sweet and funny. She really put this place over the top. Thank you.“

“I really enjoyed the new Diablo chicken nuggets. The quesadilla thing isn't anything special and over priced but it was fine. Chicken nuggets are overpriced too. It was like 8 bucks for 10 tiny nuggets. Diablo was dry seasoning but still good and spicy level was very low.“

“The only McDonald's with an Indoor Playground, perfect for this hot weather and he eats his favorite breakfast with his grandpa. Just wished they could keep it cooler but it doesn't bother him. He's more than happy to be there eating his favorite fries“

“Had bowl with chicken and all the fixings. Not only was food fresh and delicious the staff was super nice and friendly.“

“This is the best Burger King in the entire desert If not ever. The employees are kind, and courteous, and their kitchen is clean. The manager there is always on the ball. Thank you for always being so efficient. I’m always able to go here on my lunch break and never have an issue getting back to work. -VB Rodeo “

“As far as fast food goes, this place is pretty consistent…. The food is usually pretty fresh and the serving sizes are good too. This location is always clean and well maintained. The staff here tonight were efficient and helpful, even though there was a line out the door. This happens occasionally mid week when they do a school fundraiser.“

“GREAT FOOD ALSO THE SERVICE WAS AWESOME“

“Bryan Anthony here at the Palm desert mall location I cannot believe their service was so awesome made the sandwich that me and my wife had tremendously great had no complaints the soda awesome and nice and sweet and customer service and atmosphere the food I mean these two gentlemen deserve a little recognition here for their hard work because honestly even though they were jam-packed they still make sure my food was fresh nice and hot called out our order even made our soda because I first had ordered a Dr pepper Dr pepper was the watery but changed it out with no problem even apologize so many times when you didn't have to so Charlie's restaurant give your employees a little bit of recognition right here in the Palm desert mall in Palm desert ca“

“I was pleasantly surprised by how fast the service was. Ordered in a couple minutes and then left a couple minutes later. I even stared at the worker for a bit because I thought she was calling a different order for a doordasher but sure enough she was asking me what kind of sauce I wanted.“

“I LOVE their new Sofritas!!💚🌯💚🌯🌿🌱Delicious Vegan Burritos😍😋“
