50 Best Fast Food Restaurants near Thousand Palms

“First time at in and out will definitely be back“

“Every Friday afternoon, I come to this restaurant thru the drive-thru and the young lady Leonor who works there always has a beautiful smile and such a nice vibe overall. She makes sure I got enough napkins, condiments, correct drink, and meal. She is well-mannered and speaks politely. I enjoy going there, just for her service and atmosphere that she creates.“

“The food is okay here. The people seemed nice enough. The burger meat tends to taste old. Usually when I eat at Jack in The box I'm happy there's a bunch of other stuff to cover up the taste of the meat.
I had the jumbo Jack with cheese and two tacos. Tacos were made correctly. The jumbo Jack had the same crappy meat but was put together correctly. Jack in the box does have the best onion rings and the jalapeno poppers are pretty good too.“

“love the taste of,Del taco!!! Del yeah!!!🌮🌮🌮“

“Very delicious food! Super friendly“

“I get Dave's Hot Chicken all the time from the Howell, MI location. absolutely amazing food!“

“Delicious food and friendly staff“

“We were in from out of town looking for a sports bar and found this place. We got lucky with this one and ended up going 2 nights there. Don't let the name fool you, the Mexican dishes on the menu were outstanding and probably ended up being everyone's favorite items. Wings, Bills R.V. Nachos, Burgers, Enchiladas, Cobb Burger among the favorites. LOTS of TVs, Great Service and never a wait for us. Highly recommend.“

“great food,great service very clean, and takes great precaution for covid-19.“

“All I can say about In 'n Out is that I love it. No matter which location I go to, it's consistently delicious. No matter how long the drive-thru line is, it goes pretty fast. And this is important: the burger patty is always hot and the lettuce and tomato are always cold. Exactly as it should be.“

“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 🙏🏼“

“Juicylicious burger..one of a kind“

“This Del taco is what del taco should be like every where, Generous portions , couldn't even finish my meal the portions where so large. UPDATE 11/1525 Food and service is still amazing here compared to Yucca Valley/ 29 palms del tacos 🌮“

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

“The floors were sticky and strewn with trash and the tables were dirty when I arrived. I spent $40 for two people. I got a combo and my companion got a salad. My combo included a teriyaki grilled chicken sandwich which was pretty unsatisfactory, unfortunately. The chicken patty was extremely thin, and the ciabatta bun that the sandwich was on was very crusty and springy which made the contents of the sandwich (which were very drippy) spill out with each bite.

The service was excellent. People came out to sweep and mop and one of the workers cleaned the table for us. Everyone was friendly and attentive and even said goodbye to us as we left. The extremely good service is what buoyed my overall rating from what would have been a three-star up to a four-star.

I obviously haven't tried everything on the menu, and your mileage may vary with regard to the chicken sandwich. My companion really enjoyed the Santa Barbara Cobb Salad. I'd say this place is at least worth a try to see if the food matches with your preferences, because the service is certainly good.“

“It's a Carl's Jr. so it is what it is in terms of food. It's a convenient place for me to stop when I travel between LA and Arizona.

Thst said, the staff is GREAT. Unfailingly polite, cheerful, and helpful. Much more so than I expect at a typical fast food location.“

“Soooo yummy 😋 Best burger 🍔 in a very long time and the Cajun fries 🍟 are bomb 💣“

“Very friendly staff. Good food.

We used to go to the other Del Taco on Ramon, as they are closer to us. We won't go back to that one due to their terrible customer service.

This one is FAR superior, and we don't mind driving the extra distance.“

“Hamburgers are awesome I recommend this burgers“

“Gloria the supervisor at Carl’s Jr. in La quinta on Highway 111 is one of the best supervisors in fast food. I don’t visit this Carl’s Jr. often but because of her service and professionalism, I will return to only this Carl’s Jr.. Please acknowledge her as she well deserves it.“

“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.“

“I'm 61 and I've been going there since I was around 6 or seven years old. My dad took me there on our way to salton sea fishing. We would stop at the bait store next door. The foundation is still there. I had lunch there today and just love the double cheeseburgers and fries. My uncle Kenny worked at the gas station there before I was born. Lots a memories.😁“

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

“Brisket dog is for real.👍🏽🔥🔥🔥 & you gotta get chili cheese fries 🤷🏽‍♂️👍🏽“

“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.“

“This Burger 🍔 King is ok. It has the play gym for kids to play, ok Atmosphere, cool place to grab a meal.“

“I absolutely live for days on the west coast just to get to a jack in the box for those funky tacos. I've loved them forever. It's even worth getting crappy service, from a manager no less, just to be able to eat these darn things!“

“Nice meal before movie, service slowed, otherwise a good idea. Nice price.“

“Saturday = BBQ. Their 3 meal BBQ with 2 sides of collard greens are my favorite on a Saturday“

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

“Great experience here, and the sandwich was fresh and made exactly as ordered, and was out super fast. The staff was friendly and efficient, and the place was clean, with plenty of seating. I love that the bread is always soft and has a nice crunch, and the ingredients taste really fresh. Online ordering was a breeze, and pick up was ready right on time, therefore, if you are looking for a quick and reliable lunch that actually tastes good, this location is solid, and I give it 5 stars.“

“From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome that set the tone for a great experience. The cashier was in training and did an excellent job. friendly, attentive, and eager to help. There was a small misunderstanding about a side of garlic bread, but the staff handled it right away and even offered a complimentary one to make it right. The food was absolutely delicious, and every member of the team was wonderful. Great service, great food, and an all-around amazing experience!“

“Just want to mention that the crew should have more training in being more attentive with the customers. Youd be standing for minutes at the front and you are being completely ignored, especially, the male dt order taker, the male manager never smiles, the other crew like the black young guy the same, he would go back n forth doing something but wont acknowledge you at all. I was a gral mgr in a fast food, started as a cashier promoted all the way to managerial so i know what im talking about. Thats it. Just more training pls“

“Always hit or miss unless you go mid day but at the end of the day it’s just mcd’s lol. Everyone is super nice and friendly but again it’s mcd’s so don’t expect that much. The photo is a reference to the hit or miss aspect of this place“

“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.“

“This McDonalds seems to be better than most in the area (there a good one off of 48 & Jackson in Indio too). The employees tend to be fairly nice and halfway knowledgeable in their skill set (as anywhere there's always one to mess it up). They get the order right and hot 8 of 10 times. Prices have gone up and the meal deals are hit and miss with stuff you really want.“

“Food is great, unfortunately the employees have no sense of good service or communication. Maybe it's because they have to deal with a lobby and outside full of homeless people. So I kind of understand. But that doesn't justify being a bad employee to everyone.no energy amongst the employees at all“

“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!“

“I have ordered my favorite Double whopper meal and was disappointed by the size of a whopper. First I thought they confused my order as the burger didn’t even look close
to the size the regular double whopper looks, it wasn’t tall either and it didn’t have tomatoes.
I go to different Burger Kings and I know what to expect when I order double whopper.
Believe me, it Was NOT it! Not by size not by look!!! The owner just use that particular size bun was the answer!!!
But then isnt it a chain???? BURGER KING!
So the standards should be the same!“

“Today I had the pleasure of meeting Moses. I have been in customer service my entire adult life so I can recognize it from a mile away. Moses is a genuine example of how to treat people, and how to engage with positivity. If you ever read this Moses, you are genuinely appreciated, never change!“

“Best Sweet Tea in the Valley! Thank you for all your support of RMHS Athletics!“

“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.“

“The manager of this restaurant, Erika, should be training every manager. It was my birthday, and I was sad. He went to the counter and told Erika about this and asked if she would sing to make his grandma feel special. This is not a normal policy. Well that is exactly she did in the middle of a busy day. They brought me a cake and sang, and I felt very special, and my grandson was oh so proud. My 8yr. old grandson loves when we go inside your nice clean restaurant and have dinner, it is always a special time for us, and we talk. You know there are some qualities you just can't pay a person to have and although Erika runs a very tight ship, she has those qualities above and beyond when it comes to customer service. Please thank her from the bottom of my heart. Sincerely, Kenda, Michael's Grandma“

“I’m not a fan of fast food but there are times when I do indulge. My order this morning (3232049935105) was handled by Christian. Hats off to him for taking the early shift and providing a friendly face, personable and respectful attitude. I have witnessed this on several occasions. He is an asset to your organization and you need more employees like him.“

“Staff always friendly and never have issues with order. The mobile app feature doesn’t work at this location though. Store will not honor deals without app. Too bad :(“

“Food was ok nothing out of this world. I wasn’t impressed with the food we ordered. You can definitely get a better burger at other local restaurants for half the price and better taste. We spent almost $60 for two fast food meals. Plus they asked for a tip even though we used the self service kiosk.“

“This place is awesome. Easy on and off the freeway, the new staff are friendly, polite and funny. The food is good. The area is clean inside and outside. I dine there weekly. There is a motel in the same complex, and truckstop within walking distance. Great place, I “

“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 “

“Great place, great people that really care. They had the best pretzel twist I have ever had!“

“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“
