American Restaurants near Thousand Palms

“Monse is by far the best server at any food establishment. . She's on top of everything.. she's the reason I go to Denny's in Thousand palms.“

“What a great find. We were driving back to CA from Phoenix and were looking for a nice place to stop for lunch and we found It's a Wrap. It's basically the restaurant at the golf club house in a private community. The staff, food and location was great. It was very relaxing and we didn't have to worry about the stuff in our car in a strip mall type of location. Highly recommended.

Note that Google Maps will likely route you to the residents only entrance, to access the restaurant you need to enter off Varner road which is the service road of I-10“

“Every Friday morning, my men's group gathers for breakfast at SiBon, drawn back week after week by the warm "Bonjour, Messieurs" that greets us at the door, expertly prepared dishes, and attentive service that makes us feel genuinely welcomed. Their prix fixe menus—offered during the off-season and for special occasions—deliver great value without compromising quality. Simply put, SiBon is one of those rare places that keeps us coming back—and one of my personal favorites in the Coachella Valley.“

“We had incredible dinner here, I think our favorite of Palm Springs! The ambience is incredible, such a peaceful, beautiful outdoor garden and very romantic. The food was so fresh and flavorful, and they were very accommodating for dietary requests (vegan). And to top it off, our server Gabe was so kind and knowledgeable and really made our whole experience perfect!“

“Excelent food and service. Ray was fantastic!!!“

“Love the matzoh ball soup and the #5“

“Great food and a staple in our little artists/makers community. Junior is an amazing human, and this place is not to be missed. 10/10.“

“We had such amazing service today at this Denny's. Cenisa R is "THEE MOST AMAZING SERVER" She was so professional and on top of everything including refilling our drinks. Cenisa is a wonderful young lady, fantastic personality and service. Denny's should be very proud to have someone of this quality working for them. GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Really nice place for breakfast just off El Paseo - freshly cooked, good service, and a nice vibe. A real antidote to the major chains!“

“I've been coming here for years. So many breakfast options to choose from. I got the chicken fried steak and hubby got the machaca plate. Very flavorful and prepared perfectly. Jared was a great server and manager. I definitely recommend this place. So yummy!“

“We stopped by Denny's yesterday for an early dinner. Nadia was our server and she could not have been nicer. My husband ordered a grilled cheese and the cheese wasn't melted all the way through, but everything else was tasty. Nadia provided such great customer service that we'll for sure be back. She was fantastic!“

“So delicious so fun best birthday ever!“

“This was the best Peruvian food hands down made by Peruvians so the taste was authentic with authentic ingredients. My wife and I met the chef and she’s so passionate about her food and was very friendly. Think it may have been family working there every one was so polite and friendly engaged in conversation about Peru. My wife and I had the lomo saltado and I had to get the ceviche con chicharron it was absolutely delicious. We usually make stops throughout the places we visit to try the Peruvian food and this is it. The ceviche was fresh and had all the authentic ingredients it’s like if we were sitting in Peru eating. This is going to be our go to spot when visiting the area.“

“Great burger and French fries“

“This restaurant is truly special. Their Thanksgiving spread and service were incredible and we could easily see that they all work as a family not just co workers. They gave my Dad’s girlfriend a wonderful spread of birthday desserts, the whole restaurant sang to her and they even had football going for the Ravens fans next to us! The chef personally came to talk with us and I’d like to give a special shout out to Gina. One of the best servers I’ve ever had at a restaurant. I hope we make it back soon!“

“Highly recommend. Christmas Eve was delicious. The food was yum. The mimosas were refreshing. The ambiance was festive. The service was perfect. Thank you. Merry Christmas and happy new year! 🎊 🤶“

“Watched the Budweiser Clydesdale horses and had a fabulous lunch.“

“We had not been to Legends and Icons since 2020. Finally talked the hubby into going back tonight and let me just say...the food was absolutely delish and on point. Drinks were very good. The waitress and staff were amazing and friendly. Dessert was their yummy carrot cake. I can honestly say it's the best carrot cake I've ever eaten. Bobby has done a wonderful job turning this restaurant into a great success. Thank you Bobby and we will definitely be putting Legends and Icons back on our list of great places to eat and drink. 😊🤗💜😉“

“We took our neighbor out for lunch, on Friday, recalling what a great experience we had with our son last October. The warmth and efficiency of the staff and our meals were top notch. Instead of heading toward the East side during Coachella, we decided that the eclectic menu here was far superior to unique bite. At 11:15 the place was hopping but we got a great center table. People of all ages love it here. We saw young people ready for concerts and elderly couples and groups. My husband loved the French Dip and he does not usually exclaim with a 5! Our neighbor had the tuna sandwich and side salad. Her sweet petite self had enough to bring half of it home with her. It looked good! My choice was the chicken tarragon on a croissant with those crunchy fries we like so much. An old school charm, consistently great meals and friendly staff make JT's a favorite in the valley.“

“Great entertainment and fantastic service“

“Everything is wonderful! I can’t wait to come back on my next trip.“

“Great food, nice presentation, attentive service, we’ll be back.“

“Bomb happy hour. But Hey La Quinta has Clamato“

“We came on a pretty busy holiday weekend but we're super impressed. Everyone on staff worked hard to offer an exceptional experience to the guest, and that's exactly what we got. The food came out fast and everything tasted great. The drinks by Hunter awesome. Dana the manager was busy and still took time to greet us and make sure we were satisfied. We were, thus highly recommend this Islands for a casual, comfortable dining experience.“

“This Pub is freaking amazing! This was my husband and my first time and we were both very impressed by the food and atmosphere. We both couldn’t stop looking at all the amazing memorabilia they have all over the place. The food was super delicious. I ordered the Chicken Avocado sandwich. The combination of the Gouda cheese and the spicy candy bacon was delicious! I highly recommend this place. Can’t wait to see some live music here! My husband and I will definitely be back.“

“There is good food, there is great food, and once in a great while you hit that place that not only has great food, but amazing service, owner and staff. Those moments really hit, and this was one of those moments. Hint, they open at 4, get in line at least by 3:30.“

“Awesome food 😋 👌 we enjoy it so much!“

“We came here for a special lunch to celebrate our 41st wedding anniversary. We could not have made a better choice. Lucy's sister and Lucy's personal caregiver joined and all four of us had a marvelous time. The food, the service, and the setting were all first rate. Love those lobster rolls. The complimentary desert, a dark chocolate mousse, was heavenly. The service was as good as we have had anywhere, and that covers hundreds of restaurants over those 41 years. This will now be our celebration place for all special occasions.“

“It would be wonderful if they could get rid of all the flies. Food was good, service was good but those annoying flies, yikes🪰🪰.“

“Great craft beer, Whiskey flights and best burger by far is the Fresno Fig Burger 🍔 Yum!“

“True to its name, they serve burgers and beers along with quite a big menu they have plenty of options to choose from. Portions are a good size and definitely match the price. Lots of tvs playing anything you can think of along with trivia which my party quite enjoyed. Desert was great.“

“Had a fantastic dinner Friday nite and enjoyed seeing old friends and meeting Kerri the owner. E. Billy Thompson was singing and always brings couples to the dancing floor. Be sure to visit Nick’s Bistro at Date Palm CC open to the public.“

“The ambience was very relaxing!“

“Our 60's rock band Woody & The Retros play at PDCC, and we love the vibe, people and patio. Come see us and dance to the Feel Good Sounds of the Swingin' 60's. 💃🕺For booking contact Woody Retro. Thanks to Robert Pescador for bringing us back each season. We truly appreciate the opportunity. We hope to see YOU on the dance floor!“

“I had the pleasure of visiting Canyons this evening.The Kobe burger was a great option-the burger ? is tasty, piled high with all of the fixings and a bun with sauce!The pretzel bread - my first time ever trying that - was warm, soft, and tasted jut like a pretzel!“

“Such a beautiful place. The clubhouse and restaurants are a must visit (with a member. Or better yet buy a home and become a member!“

“Woodhaven has a band Hotwyre who is the best band. Love their tune & set list. Lots of dancing to iconic rock n roll!“

“Course is in great condition, very nice layout, great staff.“

“This is a great place to eat lunch while in The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens. We got the (2) Piece Chicken Tender meal which was really great. I thought I was going to get just the chicken, but it came with garlic bread, plus very tasty French fries. Much more food than I expected. Plus, the chicken was the best tenders I've tasted in a long while and huge pieces. the squirrel also enjoyed the food :-) Good pricing and food, I would recommend.“

“The nitro cold brew was delightful.My wife and I weren't happy with the pastries. However, the staff were most friendly and graciously offered me a refund. I am quite satisfied with this, so five stars for good service, good vibes, good coffee!I'll return.“

“My husband and I stayed at the Embassy Suites by Hilton in Palm Desert. We were there for 3 nights and 4 days. It was more than I expected. The breakfast was great, you actually had real breakfast items. Not just a continental breakfast. The 5:30 to 7:30 free drinks was awesome! And the dinner was great!“

“Dinner was great as well as service“

“Went to a 5pm fundraiser. Clearly they let an entire restaurant in early. There was not one seat available at 5. It was already maxed out with people wolfing down appetizers and wine with not one seat open. Not Cool. Clearly the good Ole boys got the we will let you in early memo. Too much competition around El Paseo to ever go back.“

“Brilliant all around! !!!“

“Lovely pool area with great food and drink. Enjoyed the fish tacos and chicken wings. Nice selection of cocktails and other drinks. Plenty of seating both loungers, high-tops and table seating. Options for shaded areas or sun! Thanks to Lety for her friendly and attentive service, credit to the facilities here ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“After a long day at Coachella, we were looking for a good local spot outside the festival grounds—and Maxcy’s Grill hit the spot. It’s a solid, no-frills diner-style place that delivers exactly what you’d expect. The food was fresh, portions were generous, and the service was friendly. For what it is and where it is, Maxcy’s is a great choice if you’re in the area and want a satisfying meal without the crowds or high prices of the festival.“

“Old school diner. We used to go here years ago when we lived in Palm Desert. Same food today. Taco salad is my fave. Burger isn't as good as we remember. Ranch dressing tastes home-made and is great! Tacos were yummy. Great stop with kids. Diner itself is older...but clean. Great location when you want a good stop close to I-10!“

“We have been to Boulevards 3 or 4 times for dinner, each time it was a great experience; service, food, and ambiance way above par...however, we had lunch for the first time a week ago this past Friday with 7 other people. While the service was good, the food was subpar...I had a professional LA Chef with us, who did not say a word, but neither he or his wife ate their lunches and I know them well enough to know they did not like it...I ordered chili, it was not very good and was luke warm, but the server took it immediately and warmed it. My partner ordered a club sandwich, it too was subpar, and another friend also ordered chili and felt as I did. While the others in the party were grandkids, the one salad looked like a bowl filled with lettuce thrown together, and not much thought at that, one had a sandwich and I looked at that, it too looked awful, and my one grandson said his lunch was good...I do not remember what he had. For a place that has no kids menu and prices are steep, everything should be served professionally. ALSO...I was in the restaurant business in LA and NYC for over 25 years and it is 2024 and time for Boulevards to have a voice mail instead of a message that askes the customer to call back when they cant answer the phone as they "are serving other customers" The customer should not have to keep calling back. By the way, I just called to make reservations for this coming Tues nite, 4 times over a 15 - 20 minute period, and each time I got this same message. We really like Boulevards for dinner, but as with all restaurants, and included my own, there is always room for improvement!“
