50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Thousand Palms

“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. 🍻🎶“

“excelente servicio y rapidez“

“When you walk in it seems like a fast food joint, but the food is more like a diner cafe and prepared fresh (though fast!) It was delicious. The French fries were hot right out of the fry basket. And perhaps the best part is the people. Everyone working there is super nice! Great service.“

“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!“

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

“Needs more vegetarian options ? ( As posted on the website). Seems to be continuing to be short staffed. We left a 25 % tip to the server. Love some of the options but/ got a vegetarian..,, little to offer. 🤷🏼‍♀“

“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.“

“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.“

“Love this bread store. I think it has a tremendous value to access to a family owned business thay specialized on bread. The prices are slightly high. May be the portions are smaller than expected but good quality. My wish is thay they have more of fresh bread that have good fresh crust. Highly recommended.“

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

“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.“

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

“Cali Cafe is a lovely place with a welcoming atmosphere and a great overall vibe. The location is convenient, and the cafe offers a comfortable setting to relax and enjoy a nice meal or drink. The staff are friendly, and the experience makes it a great spot to visit with friends or family. Definitely worth checking out, and I would happily visit again!“

“This place is so good......“

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

“Some of the best food in the valley! The sandwiches taste fresh and the flavors meld together beautifully. The spring rolls and tofu fries are also great! The sauces compliment the flavors of all their food very well. I love love this place. The Vietnamese coffee tasted a little thin this time, but I also got it with 50% sweetness so might’ve been that they used less condensed milk in order to achieve less sweetness. The Thai tea and hibiscus tea are also yummy. I love supporting small businesses and especially those that put love into their food. I’ll def keep coming here :)“

“Consistently delicious with an authentic French menu, and warm and friendly service.“

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

“Excellent food. Lamb was tasty but cooked well, spicy and flavorful. Chicken the same with mild and very savory sauce. Naan bread was crunchy but not dry and still able to scoop sauce. Loved it!“

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

“We went last night for happy hour and had a delicious charcuterie tray and bottle of wine. The staff is welcoming and the place has a cool vibe. We will definitely return next time we visit.“

The restaurant is celebrated for its fine dining experience, where every detail is meticulously curated to ensure a memorable visit. The ambiance is luxurious, and the dishes are crafted with premium ingredients, reflecting both culinary artistry and attention to detail.“

“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!“

“Literally a quaint Little Bar in the heart of Palm Desert. Great drinks and a welcoming atmosphere with a down home menu. A touch of the LA music scene is the desert. The burgers are awesome!“

“5 of us went for a leisurely birthday lunch. We each had something different and we each loved what we got. Waiter was so nice, table was in a good spot to just visit and we weren't rushed at all. It was perfect. Can't wait to go back to try the other dishes my friends had.“

“Excellent! Excellent! I haven't been here in a while and wow as always! Great food! There hard taco, packed with meat, very good, also the carna asada burrito. I wanted cheese nachos but not a lot and the lady got me a smaller verison that was perfect! The cheese on those nachos.. a must have“

“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.“

“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.“

“Absolutley Yeahhhhh. Great breakfast. Friendly people“

“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 .“

“Highly recommend! Good service! Great food! Lovely ambiance! And thanks for being you! 🍕 🥗 ☺️🎄❤️“

“Amazing food, and a possible catastrophic experience gone better than expected.
Was seated by Mary, quite a gracious hostess, to place a small appetizer order while waiting for a take out order.
While waiting for my food, I clumsily spilled my glass of red wine all over their white table cloth. Embarrassed isn't even the word! Mary, Jose and Eddie were amazing! Even brought me another glass. That's TRUST. 😆
And, to top it off, my calamari appetizer, and take out order was beyond superb.
Wonderfully appointed decor, great friendly service, outstanding food and a welcoming environment sums up all!
Said, if your going to knock over a glass of red on a white table cloth, this is the place!
Again, thanks for your kindness and graciousness.“

“Great service. Yummy food. Reasonable price.“

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

“Excellent service, Pizza is excellent, I have been a loyal customer for 15 years.“

“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.“

“Good service and food as always“

“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.“
