13 Favorite Places to Eat at in the Desert & 1 Not So Favorite
Written by R2D2 for Party Time Magazine on Wednesday, April 12, 2023
(We will be adding more pictures throughout the day)
The desert has so many restaurants with so much great and delicious food to offer.
We have been coming out to the Desert since the early 90's so have experienced meals at many restaurants all over the Coachella Valley. We must note that there are so many restaurants, so we have not ate at all of them. This list is made up of the eatieries that we have eat at and feel worthy of sharing in no
particular order.
Maracas
Mexican Catina & Grill
Palms Springs & Rancho Mirage
Love the Margaritas, Fajitas, Burritos, the Mexican style shrimp cocktail, and the best chips and salsa on the strip.
Service: Great
Las Casuals Terraza
Mexican Restaurant
Palm Springs
Love the Margarita's, Fajitas, Chimichangas (that word is fun to say, isn't it?), and fresh made guacamole at your table side.
Service: Ok
Thai Smile
Thai Restaurant
Palm Springs
Everything here is delicious, from the rice, noodles, curry to the spring rolls.
Service: Good
La Bonita's
Mexican Restaurant
Palm Springs
Great wet burritos and tacos.
This place is know to be a hangout for Arrow actor Stephan Amell who has a house in Palm Springs.
Service: Ok
El Patron
Mexican Restaurant
Palm Springs
Great tacos, and great drinks.
Service: Ok (weird for the kind of restaurant it is, should be great table full service, but you have to go and stand in line inside to order and pay for your food and drinks)
Lulu's California Bistro
American European Restaurant
Palm Springs
Great beet salad, some days out there you have to just enjoy a light lunch.
Service: Ok
Sherman's Deli
American New York Kosher style Restaurant
Palm Springs
Good hearty breakfast meals.
Service: Ok
King's Highway Outdoor Area
at the Ace Hotel
American Mexican Restaurant
Palm Springs
Best beet salad ever, very light and refreshing, once again, some days out in the Deset you have to just enjoy a light refreshing meal.
Service: Ok
Emperor Buffet
Chinese Restaurant
Rancho Mirage
Only recommend this place if your really hungry and in the mood for AYCE Chinese. Warning, do not eat here on festival days, keep it light or your hangout spot will be the porta potties lol.
Service: Ok
Cafe Des Beaux Art
French Restaurant
Rancho Mirage
Good place for a light breakfast.
Service: Ok, but kind of Uppidy lol
Spaghetti Factory
Rancho Mirage
Italian Food
My favorite place anywhere anytime anything on the menue.
Service: Ok
Burgers & Beer
Rancho Mirage
(we split the burger in half because we were going snacking before watching a movie next door)
Best burgers and coldest beers in the desert with great service.
Service: Great
Los Arcos Mexican Restaurant
La Quinta
Best home made Mexican food in the Coachella Valley with the best service ever. This place makes you feel like your eating at home with maama cooking up all her delicious meals.
Service: Excellent
Pinocchio's In the Desert
Palm Springs
Our favorite breakfast spot for America/European food.
Delicious omelettes and eggs benedict.
At Pinocchio's you can also order bottomless champagne (we enjoyed this place so much we once left and walked back to the resort and forgot we drove there lol)
Service: Great
I Heart Mac and Chesse
Palm Springs
Our honest opinion, makes you want to rename the place I Hate Mac and Cheese, for Mac and Cheese not delicious at all and pricey, do not recommend you waste your money, can't believe we're talking bad about Mac and Cheese, but they did not get it right at this place, this Subway style restaurant should maybe be in like a mall.
Service: Below average, inexperienced fast food workers.
