A total gem!!! Great sandwiches... I couldn't decide because all sounded great. I had chicken salad sandwich on sqaw bread. Loved it... took 1/2 home and can't wait to have the other 1/2. Super casual and comfortable and clean. Very small seating. Order at counter. This will be on my go to list. Staff very friendly and efficient.

What a great find off the I-10! We searched sandwich shops rather than greasy fried food and we found The Lunch Spot. All of our sandwiches were flavorful and fresh, from the chicken salad to the pastrami or the daily special, Tri-tip dip. They also have pasta salad and potato salad. We all wish we could take this place home to AZ. Yum!

We tried this cute little sandwich shop here in Palm Desert. Had the Reuben Panini and the house sandwich number 14 which was a yummy chicken salad with Craisins and pecans, everything was delicious. Small shop with a few tables inside and outside. Good for take out.
