Disappointed. Been coming here since I was a kid but today I came to order at 630pm and told they were closed when the sign clearly says they were open till 730. I could tell they just wanted to get out but seriously what place turns away business during a pandemic when they need it the most. read more

Just how it was when I was a kid! Looks the same, tastes the same, and I still like it the same! I'll keep coming back to remind me of those childhood days when my parents brought us here. I will always enjoy this place. read more

Location a bit bummie But it also has this old feel to it which I kinda like I got a basic burger a fishwich and some fries everything is Super cheap I actually preferred the fishwich over the burger Pretty small tho would recommend getting at least 2. I tried both just to no what I preferred burger was pretty plain. The papas(potato's) are really good. The meal in totally was super cheap glad I finally checked it out. read more

What I expected from a cheap burger place. Reminds me of the Drive-in snack bar back home during the 70's and 80's. Order taker also was a throwback with zero personality. 7-11 food. Bland and simple. Oh! The potential....but, it is only a sad reminder of its hayday if it had one. read more

This place is one of many hidden gems in the valley. I've been coming here ever since I was a kid and these burgers haunt me when I'm away for too long. My girlfriend was skeptical at first but she became a believer read more

Ok let's see...I've had burgers w/ a king, in a parlor, in a basket, but in a box? Nope, better investigate this further. Burger Box, situated out in the desert in the city of Indio, is a hidden spot for some no frills quick service eats. They don't have an extensive menu, but what they do serve up here is quite good. First, let me start out by saying this place looks like death. I'm not trying to be rude, but to quote Sergeant Calhoun from "Wreck It Ralph" this place looks like "Doomsday and Armageddon just had a baby and it is ugly!" This place is housed on the property of what appears to be a old run down gas station that was closed a long time ago. It doesn't appear to be in a very prominent location and there are train tracks right across the street and, yes, a train did come clanking by during my visit. I did not see any random cars passing on the street and the cars I did see were either arriving or leaving here. This place doesn't look like much, and I thought I had passed it until I saw their sign. Heck, I don't live in the desert so the only reason I stopped was because I saw the high reviews on Yelp (and I'm a sucker for burgers). BUT, as they say, you simply can't judge a book by its cover. I parked my car, got out, and looked over their menu. They offer burgers (a hamburger, cheeseburger, double hamburger, or double cheeseburger), hot dogs, burritos, a fish sandwich, fries, drinks, milkshakes, pastrami, chicken nuggets, and a "Chik'n Box". No, looks like the burgers were not served in boxes after all. They have two windows: the left side is where you place your order and the right is where you pick up/pay. I noticed they also take phone orders as well. Holy geez is this place cheap! I paid $5.50 after tax for a double cheeseburger and a small date shake. Wait, what? Yep, you read right, a date shake. Indio is known for their dates so this little joint that could pays homage to that by offering probably their most diverse item on their menu, the nefarious date shake. This costs a little bit extra as opposed to their standard vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry shakes ($2.69 for a small size), but this place is already so cheap so it's really no big deal. I must admit, as I was standing there waiting for my food, I surveyed my surroundings and noted how run down everything looked: they had outside seating tables I decided I wasn't going to eat at, there were flies buzzing around annoying the crap out of me and as I was glazing over their menu again, I couldn't help but think that the prices were so cheap because the food was bad. Did other Yelpers lead me astray? Would the old moniker "you get what you pay" hold true here? I still thought this as I received my food and headed back to my car to grub. Well, my momentary fears were unfounded. The cheeseburger tasted great! It had that old fashioned style look and taste to it and the cheese was melted nicely. There were no frills to this burger as it only consisted of the two 1/4 lb beef patties, cheese, mustard, onion, and pickles. Boy did it hit the spot! And that date shake? O.M.G. It was amazing!!! And I was surprised how big the small size was; definitely more than enough! So, while Burger Box may not be the prettiest thing to look at, their majorly affordable prices, friendly service, and rather tasty food earn themselves another visit from me as well as my recommendation. read more

I would have to say that I have never craved this place all though it does hit the spot. Oh, and it's dirt cheap too! Growing up my tia used to always bring my cousins and I here. So, I get a bit nostalgic when I am in the area and drive past this place. Yes, it's greasy food and now I don't eat red meat so I go with an order of a meatless cheeseburger. Yeah, the look on their face when someone orders that. "What, no meat"... So, if you are traveling in the area and somehow find yourself on Indio Blvd. and you crave a greasy spoon then alas Burger Box will suffice you. I think you should come here just because the name is so rad. I do Burger Box in moderation as it should be done. Too much is not good. I forgot read more

Decent spot for a burger and other quick fast food items. In an old gas station and has a tiny liquor store that sells beer and sodas. Figured I'd try this over corporate crap. read more

If you have been living in the desert for a couple years now and have YET to eat at Burger Box or tried there food, then clearly you're doing something wrong or your friends have failed you! Anyways, this is a place desert natives need to cross off their list of trying. It's off Indio Blvd just pass Madison and before Clinton. It's adjacent to a convenience store. You can take your order to go or eat there. Cash is good, but they do take Visa and MasterCard...no American Express! The hot sauce here is AMAZING!! You must put it on any of your hot food and always ask for extra hot sauce because trust me haha I always get the bean burritos just so I can pack them with hot sauce, but the burgers will do as well. Milkshakes here are very good too! The basket o' chicken isn't my go to, but will do the job. Warning if you're going to eat here, be prepared to eat on their outdoor area and be bothered with a few flies! No outdoor A/C or misting, so just an FYI. The staff here are Hispanic, but they can speak English so be prepared to ask them to repeat themselves when they speak Spanish and you only know English haha Plenty of parking here! Staff is always helpful and friendly! Great food and hot sauce! read more

One of the best fast food spots in the Coachella valley to have a one of the best burgers,fries,milkshakes an so on. The food is always on point! An never disappointing. The service is excellent an worth the wait if it ever takes long. I highly recommend this little burger spot any day. read more

I have been comming here for ten years, I come once or twice a year, because it's far from my home. They have made the same hot sauce for years. It goes on everything, the fries are freshly cut every morning and the chimichangas, and chicken are delicious. The burgers are prepared with white onion, pickles, and mustard, my favorite!!!! please try the milkshakes !!! Or a date shake =) LUV IT!!!!!!! read more

Ladies are very nice, shakes were great. Daughter loved her Sprite freeze. Fries are fantastic - fresh and hot. The salsa has to be made with leftover pickle juice/brine, but it works. Burgers were better than McDonalds, not as good as In-N-Out, with fresh toppings. The biggest down-side is dining with flies. You will find yourself swatting flies incessantly and hoping that you aren't getting more protein than you hoped for. We did not see flies inside the kitchen as mentioned in another review. read more

Well, it was an experience. The food was great. Had a pastrami cheese burger, fries and a chocolate shake. Pretty excellent. It's a little scary looking but it was cool. Lots of local flavor. Go get some. read more

Heard so much about this place from the locals i had to try it! I was not disappointed!!! The place is a little dodgy but the food is delicious! It's located just off Indio blvd. Walk up to a little window and order your food type of place. The ladies who work there are friendly. The fries are the best, wonderful thick fresh cut potatoes, just like home made English chips! (even got myself some malt vinegar to put on them) Great prices, cheap and cheerful. The burritos are small and deep fried taste wonderful eaten with the little salsa they provide. The burgers are small and tasty. Fast food at it's best, hot tasty and deep fried. You know i don't always eat fast food but when i do it's Burger Box! read more

4stars for the burger 4 stars for the service. Ok here's the break down: i like my burgers without cheese, ordered double burger, two patties with pickles, fresh onion and buns. Simple as that! No sauce or lettuce. The meat was fresh, so was the buns, pickles were crunchy(next time I will ask for extra pickles). This burger was not greasy at all! It did not leave an after taste like the chain burger joints due to their sauce. Their fries were not the typical French fries, it's cut like discs, it's excellent ! You would need to eat them right away because it will get soggy if you wait! The vanilla milkshake was delicious! Next time I will get the basket of chicken( didn't know it was fried chicken) with my burger! read more

Cheap burgers! That don't taste bad either. Rather plain though but if you want some quick grub this is it. I don't care for there fries there like big chunks of potatoe slices it seems they never fully cook them for me. There date shakes are amazing though and cheap! You stand in line outside order your food ...wait in there lil shaded area or in your car. read more

This is the kind of place where only the locals know about, it's your stereotypical hole in the wall. I personally love the box o fries and cheeseburgers. I've heard they have a great pastrami......I personally do not like pastrami so I have not tried it. If your in town go get yourself some. read more

This place sucks burritos look like what u buy at Walmart frozen, the burgers are ok and fries look like coins or something idk what they are the salsa is bad I want to like this place but it's hard read more

Best hole in the wall ever Best Fries, Burgers, Burritos and most importantly the salsa and crushed ice yummmmm

Super cheap hole in the wall and good for the price. Love the circle fries and if you want to get full... order 2 double cheese burger, it pretty much equals to 1 actual cheese burger. Amazing Date shakes and their homemade salsa tastes good on everything there. My dad loves the fried chicken meal and the pastrami is a family fav! Maybe its because im a sucker for nostalgia, I grew up eating here. read more

Just recently moved to the area. Was so excited to try this place for the first time. We arrived at 7:20 pm, 10 minutes before closing and they refused to serve us. I tried to charm them into anything that was easy. She was very rude and disrespectful. When I told her that I had just arrived from out of town she said there are other places for me to find food. I will definitely tell everyone about this terrible experience. They definitely have a lot to learn about customer service. read more

Great little hamburger stand. Fries are sliced whole potatoes. The place and the burgers brought back memories of getting a burger, fries and a chocolate shake as a kid. read more

This small, roadside burger stand offers incredible burgers, fried potatoes (they're not really fries), ice cream shakes, hot dogs, chicken, burritos, and more. Get a double cheeseburger for $2.29 and small potatoes for $1.29. Such great deals for excellent food. Enjoy the food on the covered patio or take it to go. read more

Burger Box - Awesome fries along with a double cheeseburger with pastrami. Don't forget a date shake! - Burgers Near Me - Indio, California

Saw this appearing in my newsfeed so decided to check it out. Place is an old non working gas station. Sort of a hole in a wall except that there's no wall. Place is clean enough to dine. Ok. Got me a pastrami burger with cheese. The verdict... Not bad. Fresh onions with mustard plus the fresh buns with the meat. Burger is thin but juicy enough to taste. Got me some chips to go with it and its good enough. The best part is that they have some date shakes. Will probably come back. Maybe. read more

This place makes the most simple burger taste great. Nothing fancy just good cheap food. Ask for a pastrami burger. Awesome. Not on menu. This is NOT a fancy place a real dive as restaurants go but it is good value for what you get. read more

Finally stopped into this place. I genuinely thought it was closed for a while, but, it is open still. This place gets a solid 3 stars at best. It was nothing special and only memorable because of its location lol. If I'm driving by and hungry I might stop by again. It's not something I'd have cravings for. The Cheeseburger was good at best. It wasn't great at all. It was just good. Had the basics; mustard ketchup pickles and onions. That's it. It gets served to you nice and hot with melty cheese and a soft bun. But that's it. Nothing great about it at all. Not even the price. I'd rather throw in a extra buck if that (literally) and get a double burger from the burger place with an arrow "cough cough" and get the works, but that's just me. The fries are good. Just potatoes cut into really thick chips and lightly salted. I do give them credit for using fresh cut potatoes and not frozen freezer burned crap in a bag. Again nothing great about them either. But they are good. Fried chicken basket again, was just OK. It came with 3 good size pieces, some fries,and a toasted bun. The flavor was good. Sort of bland with nothing interesting to my palate at all. The batter was thin, not as thick as your typical fried chicken, but it was crispy. My chicken was pretty dry. Not even slightly moist. I noticed it was sitting under a hot lamp when I got there but gave it a shot anyway. It didn't seem like it was there for too long but long enough to dry it out. Or maybe they should give it a quick brine, not to sure. The date shake gets 5 stars. It was delicious. Very flavorful. Nice consistency. Not to thin not to thick. And the price was great. Very refreshing in a hot day. read more

Best papas around. I always get the deep fried burrito and a large order of fries. And they serve their fountain drinks with the good crunchy, almost like an Icee, ice. read more
