The food at John’s Palm Desert is just the best. If you’re looking for a home-cooked meal right in the heart of the Coachella Valley, John’s is where it’s at. My husband, my daughter, and I all got combos with perfectly cooked fries and even more mouthwatering burgers. The sourdough bacon burger combo was particularly my favorite. Add a fried egg and you’re good to go, and I can’t speak more highly of the customer service from the cooks behind the kitchen to the register...

Nice place. Service was terrific. The chili was all grease, and the CA burrito was marginal at best. If I go back, I hear that the ribs are good. The Mens bathroom is interesting how it is set up.
