2024- We stopped by El Ranchito Taco Shop a couple of years ago, and I still think about those…read moretacos to this day. We ordered the carnitas and carne asada tacos, and both were absolutely amazing. The carnitas were tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, while the carne asada was juicy with just the right amount of char. Everything tasted fresh, authentic, and made with care. The portions were generous, the service was friendly, and the overall experience was one of those hidden gems you're so glad you found. Even after all this time, it's still one of the most memorable taco spots I've been to. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth checking out--you won't be disappointed!

We took our neighbor out for lunch, on Friday, recalling what a great experience we had with our…read moreson 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.

So I decided to give this place a second shot since it's so close to my house. Sat down at their…read morebar counter and instead of saying hello they asked me if I was dining in and then told me I couldn't sit at the bar where I wanted because that's where they roll silverware. The restaurant was packed and I didn't wanna sit in the sun by the front door. If you come into my place of business, you can sit on the roof for all I care as long as you're spending money.

Los Primos in Palm Springs is a gem for those craving a delicious Mexican breakfast. My mom and I…read morestumbled upon this hidden gem while searching for a local Mexican breakfast spot. Apparently, the restaurant is owned by two cousins, their wives, and they pour their hearts into every dish. Upon arrival, the restaurant was bustling with locals in a causal setting, indicating that the food is truly exceptional. We had a 10-minute wait, but it flew by as we eagerly perused the menu. Our server, one of the owners' daughters, was incredibly friendly and attentive. The food was simply delicious. The portions were generous, and the flavors were bursting with authentic Mexican taste. There's ample parking available in the lot in front of the restaurant, making it convenient for customers. If I find myself craving Mexican food again during my next visit to Palm Springs, Los Primos will definitely be my go-to spot.

I don't like onions, peppers or mushrooms, but the combination with the ton of meat was delicious! I didn't even want to pick anything off. It was even better when we reheated it!!! We will definitely make the hour drive when we need our next pizza and lasagna fix!!!

The pizza had a wonderful crispy crust topped with a large amount of meats vegetables and cheese. Cooked thoroughly to perfection, not undercooked like works pizza can be but just right.the fries were hit, crispy and soft inside. Great flavor even without ketchup or ranch which we also had. The service was chill, laid back and very friendly. I felt like I was being served by good welcoming friends. One downside was the server who took our order, forgot to put it in the computer which caused a 45 minute delay. Taking it in stride he immediately offered to comp the whole meal and drinks, taking the blame upon himself. Stand up guy! I offered to at least pay for the drinks and he wouldn't let me. Regardless of the time delay, we had a great time and the food was outstanding. We will be back.

Ordered the New York style hot pastrami on rye with coleslaw and a Dr. Brown's Cream Soda. The pastrami was the highlight. Piled high, tender, and full of that classic deli flavor with just the right amount of richness. The rye bread held everything together well and had a nice bite to it. It's the kind of sandwich you have to take a second to look at before figuring out how to eat it. The coleslaw was fresh and crisp, a good balance to the sandwich, and the cream soda was cold and refreshing. Also ordered a slice of pistachio cake to go. Absolutely delicious. The place has that old school deli feel, busy but in a good way, and full of character. Service was friendly and efficient even with the crowd. Definitely a spot worth stopping at if you're in Palm Desert and want a proper deli sandwich.

Service was excellent. Seated immediately and ordering minutes later. Got extra cream cheese on request and our coffees were diligently refilled. The main attraction was the pastrami sandwich. Totally to my wife's taste, extremely lean and stacked high. She had to take half home. I tried an omelette with corned beef and loved it. The everything bagel was perfectly acceptable, not too "bready." So: service good, pastrami good, and bagel good. Everything good about a deli is covered.

Okay you've probably heard buzz about a bahn mi or Vietnamese spring rolls but you haven't really…read morehad them until you try them here. There's a popular chain of Bahn mi sandwiches where you get plenty of bread and even a fair amount of lettuce but if you were hoping for a sandwich full of meat and daikon and flavor well skip them and head to this place! Only the big boys were finishing a whole sandwich. We had a vermicelli bowl with chicken and shrimp spring rolls. We didn't finish because we got full before the plates were empty. The tastes are bright and full of flavor. The peanut sauce was a hit for the spring rolls and I had both fish sauce and ginger sauce. The fish sauce is to liquid to really cling but what flavor. The ginger has a superb front taste and an ending that brings the heat. Ingredients are totally fresh and quality. Servings are plentiful and prices are reasonable. Sure friendly and approachable staff ready to guide you into gastronomical bliss. And the restaurant though small and unassuming in a strip mall is clean and pleasant. Bon apetite
