50 Best Vegetarian 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.“

“excelente servicio y rapidez“

“Best beer in the valley! And they have a great selection. My personal faves are Desert Citrus and Grapefruit IPA. The sours I’ve tried have all been great, too. And I love live music, especially original music. They are very supportive of local musicians and songwriters. 🍻🎶“

“Goody's is great. I've never eaten anything off the menu that I didn't like. There's multiple Goody's across the valley, this one happens to be across the street from the Flying J truck stop and makes it convenient for drivers to whom I would say, I would highly recommend eating there before tanking up on the fast food joints that are just down the street. Breakfast, lunch or dinner there's something for everybody and they serve it all, all day long.“

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

“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.“

“I just tried this place last week as I am staying in Palm Springs for a month. I loved the sandwiches! I might go back today to explore more of their food, and buying some of their awesome Vegan shirts and merch!“

“Los Primos

Total sleeper—easy to overlook, but worth not missing. Whether it’s a solid entrée like the fish or chicken, the birria, or even the ahi salad, everything comes out well-executed and balanced. Not trying to be trendy, just consistently good across the board.

Quiet spot, strong menu, and better than you’d expect. Definitely one to have in the rotation. I’ve only hit them up for dinner, but I can only imagine how great breakfast is here as well.“

“Eight Desert Divas dined at Sí Bon Restaurant in Rancho Mirage on Thursday. We were celebrating one of our own lovely Diva's birthday. We made reservations ahead of time (thankfully) because they were VERY busy. It is a popular place. The service was excellent. The menu was great. They offer a summer menu which includes a three course dinner for $32. They also have a happy hour menu. I ordered the meat loaf dinner and it was delicious and plentiful. Others selected steak with fries, tacos, mussels, and a few other items. There were no complaints at all. They even brought out a birthday chocolate mousse with a candle and 8 individual spoons to honor our birthday girl. Our server was wonderful and he gave us separate checks (which we always appreciate). It was definitely a special night and we highly recommend Sí Bon. Be sure to make reservations ahead of time. You won't be disappointed.“

“The food is fresh and delicious. (Try the beef kabobs!) The large outdoor patio has misters and fans, and faces NE away from the afternoon sun.“

“Great food and great prices. It is a rare find to get good ethic food in Palm Springs. This is a great one.“

“Good service and food as always“

“Great food and drinks..Relaxed vibe and atmosphere. Tacquitos Dorado and Tacos LA Paz were excellent...We'll be back!!!“

“Very friendly staff, very delicious food, great sushi and udons.“

“I love this neighborhood diner! It is my go to breakfast place every Friday. The staff is very friendly and attentive. From the minute Helen greets us at the door until the wait staff comes to serve me coffee and water, I am always greeted with a smile. Servers Rafi, Rudy, Antonio, and Veronica are efficient and prompt in getting my order to my satisfaction. The cooks provide consistently attractive food, and my order arrives just the way I like it. If you are looking for reasonable prices, good food, and friendly service, this is the place to find it.“

“This place is so good......“

“If you’re looking for some great Mexican food, this is the place to try! The atmosphere is amazing, the food is even better, and the service is excellent!“

“I totally enjoyed my recent and a previous dinner occasion at La Perlita. Service was friendly and efficient, from being greeted through departure after enjoying a delicious meal. Portions were just right in size, not too little or too much. I had the pollo asado and was very satisfied.“

“Stopped in for breakfast before heading back to the San Fernando Valley after a weekend in La Quinta and were glad we did.

This place definitely has the feel of a local favorite, which is always a good sign. There was a wait for indoor seating, but we were seated on the patio right away.

Service was friendly, prompt, and attentive throughout our meal. The breakfast menu had so many good options that choosing was the hardest part. I ordered the Country Breakfast with over-easy eggs and hash browns, while my husband went with the breakfast burrito.

The restaurant was busy, so there was a bit of a wait for our food, but it was completely understandable and the staff did a great job keeping our coffee and water topped off in the meantime.

When our meals arrived, we were surprised by the portion sizes—everything was huge and absolutely delicious. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

If we lived locally, this would definitely become a regular breakfast spot. Highly recommended!“

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

“Gathering of new found friends. Beautiful weather. It was not yet too hot. Nice shade, slight breeze, lovely views and good food. What more could you ask for? Ah yes, the service was great as well! Sorry, we had such a great time, we forgot to take pictures of the food and surroundings.“

“Some places you discover. Others you return to — year after year, like a ritual you'd never dare break. Counter Reformation in Palm Springs is the latter, and every visit only deepens the devotion.

Dark, intimate, and dripping with atmosphere, this is a wine bar that takes the craft seriously without taking itself too seriously. The vibe is effortlessly cool — candlelit and unhurried, the kind of room where time loosens its grip and conversation flows as freely as the wine.

Speaking of which — Britney. The woman is a gift. As sommelier, she curates this list with a connoisseur's precision and a true lover's instinct. She remembers what you liked, anticipates what you'll adore, and somehow always lands on the exact pour you didn't know you needed. Her knowledge is vast, but it's her warmth that truly elevates the experience. In Britney's hands, every glass tells a story.

Year after year, Counter Reformation earns its place as one of our most cherished stops in the desert. It never disappoints. It only gets better.

See you again next year.“

“Wonderful food. Welcoming and delicious. Tavyn was friendly and professional. Highly recommend. I will be back. Thank you:)“

“We miss the buns you used to serve. Why don't you put them on the menu and charge for them? The replacement buns on the menu are NOT nearly as good. Also why did you tae the pork and burger sliders off the menu..they were great Happy Hour/anytime items .“

“Great tasting food. Mouth watering tacos. Delicious fajitas.

Great little taco shop. Cozy atmosphere. Speedy service with delicious food. Plenty of food. What a great value.

Another great establishment for the roster. I will be back.“

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

“very yummy and great service!“

“Wow! I’m so blown away by this PHENOMENAL pizza place. My new favorite! Staff were awesome and I settled on a Hot Honey Pepperoni. I’m normally not a fan of thick pizzas but this just WORKS. I’ve had GOOD pizzas, but it’s been over a decade since I’ve had an innovative one. These are works of art, very well done. I love the rockabilly vibe too. I’ll be rocking your shirt and spreading the word.“

“great service, friendly staff fun atmosphere“

“Just brought home a delicious meal to enjoy after a rough day at work. Thanks to the staff for being there!“

“A fun and quirky suds stop with friendly staff and patrons. Check out their food truck schedule. They are pooch friendly and the suds are brewed in-house. Highly recommended!!“

“Great food and they are wonderful at supporting our hometown community“

“What a great restaurant that embodies diners from the 60s. We went for breakfast at 7am during the summer, and they weren't busy at all. First off, the pancakes are huge and delicious. All breakfast prices are reasonable. The hash browns were crispy and not greasy. Service was excellent, and the restaurant was very clean. There are lots of seats around the counter that remind you of soda fountains from the past. If you are not looking for fancy but just good food at reasonable prices, this is a great option!“

“Stopped in for lunch and had the aspen turkey sandwiches. They also gave us a sample blueberry muffin. Jennifer and Melissa were fantastic and the ambiance was positive and upbeat.
Great lil bakery and sandwich stop.
Highly recommended“

“Best authentic mexican restaurant in the area. Not americanized. Customer service is A+, the staff is friendly, food is delicious and they have ice cold beer. I always get carnita tacos and a torta and they never fail to impress. Fully recommended“

“Great food, great employees Great with the kids“

“The atmosphere takes you to a village in Mexico. The food is authentic. Love the nachos. Pleasant wait staff.“

“I’m so thrilled to have found this place. Most authentic Thai food restaurant in the valley. They even had one of my most favorite dishes from Northern Thailand, called Khao Soi. Oh and if you order the Phad se ew, have it with the crispy pork as the protein.“

“Great burger and fries. Delicious carne asada burger. 🍔 🍟 🥤 so good!“

“Great food! Would return when we are back in the area. Highly recommend.“

“Very authentic French cuisine will be back!“

“Staff is so helpful and fun to be with, the cocktails are wonderful and wine is lovely, and the food choices are incredible!“

“Great place all around! The food is AWESOME and the atmosphere is top notch. A must if you're in the area!“

“I've come here more times than I can count and it's always delicious. There aren't many GOOD vegan options in the Coachella Valley, but the tofu bahn mi from here is superb!! If you're vegan or avoiding dairy you can order a tofu banh mi without mayonnaise. They also have vegan tofu spring rolls with peanut sauce. The lemonade and teas from here are also delicious and refreshing. The staff is always kind and will answer any questions you may have. Overall, this is a lovely spot to get some good food 😋 I highly recommend it to vegans and meat eaters alike.“

“We were here in Palm Desert for a competition and one of our parents recommended we try this spot. Great margaritas and absolutely the best Mexican food I've ever eaten. I don't remember the name of the dishes we tried but the pin wheel shrimp and the pork Fajitas are just incredible. If you're in Palm Desert you have to try Guillmores!!! Definitely worth the trip“

“Big Rock is not a gimmicky theme restaurant. It is a wealthy Canadian food/logistics entrepreneur’s passion project, built like a rock and roll clubhouse with real money behind it. The food is apparently taken seriously, not treated as an afterthought, and the ambiance is probably the main event. Think upscale, over-the-top, music-memorabilia golf pub rather than a tired chain restaurant with guitars on the wall.“

“Great atmosphere, wonderful service & fantastic food!“
