Nice little newer Dairy Queen in Indio. Stopped by for a post lunch treat. This location is great as it's near downtown Indio and also has a drive thru, the real selling point. We don't have any drive thru Dairy Queen's where I'm from as far as I know, so this was a treat. As I mentioned this is a newer store and thus has a nice drive thru, landscaping, and fresh paint. Strictly from the drive thru service was great. The gentlemen taking the orders was clear, quick and helpful when we inquired about their lactose options. Polite customer service and efficient. Can always appreciate that. Walked away with three ice creams for the car for about $17. I had a hot fudge sundae, a classic, and it was delicious. Love the hot fudge. This place was a treat but wanted to give a kudos to this location as it's solid and perfect for these hot days in the desert. read more

We went through drive through today. Ordered three meals, asked for ranch dressing,, we were charged 79cent three times. But not till after we paid!! Okay I get it !!!

Not Happy Mr. SINGH!! read more

i ordered the chicken strips basket and they burnt my bread and my French fries were very salted

Super rude Latina that works the desk. She's super sweet to Latinos and alike, but not to others. Rude service and absolutely ruined my lunch. Won't be back read more

The blizzards are the very best treat ever!! This is a must stop every time I go by!! Love Dairy Queen!

We slid in just before closing. Very cool inside. Great to remember when it is 110° outside. Ordered a couple of blizzards. Tasted great. Good consistency. Didn't know this location existed. Will return if we're in Indio. read more

8:45pm on a Saturday night when they're scheduled to close at 11pm and they say they can't make any food, only ice cream. Big Stagecoach weekend, huge business opportunity, and they can't make any food. Nice job. Don't ever come here. This isn't the first time it's happened. It's a 'Grill and Chill,' but the grill is usually down. It's like an inverse of the McDonalds ice cream machine. Booo Dairy Queen boooooo read more

We were in the mood for some desserts and with a list of different options it took us awhile on what to pick. We finally decided on the strawberry sundae, vanilla dipped cone, and pretzel sticks with jalapeño cheese sauce. All three were tasty, fresh, and delicious and for a really good deal too. read more

First Dairy Queen to ever fully mix the cotton candy blizzard all the way down. Also, the girl walked it out to me to hand it to me which was nice. Shout out to the evening team working 5/24. read more

Mostly chill. Lady dropped the card in the drive thru, but otherwise had great shakes & blizzards. read more

Dairy Queen Grill & Chill - Best part of a rainy day - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Indio, California

Pro-Tip: It's a good day for ice-cream in the Coachella valley 365 because it's typically always hot here. Ordered a medium vanilla swirl. I remember the days in my hometown these were like a couple bucks. But this is 2023, and CPI and CORE inflation is at an all time high. Medium swirl = very big swirl. Almost cannot be contained by the size of the cone. Texture is very creamy and brings back all the nostalgia to those halcyon summer days growing up in the 'burbs of Chicago. I just wish they had Dairy Queen in Los Angeles county. While technically they do in a mall in Northridge, that hardly counts. This treat should be more universal. read more

Finally opened up in Indio! Drive thru is usually packed but moves along. Sundaes are the best. Can't wait to try something else. read more

See all

No ice cream, no restroom. Understand supplier issues but a restaurant that serves food must have a restroom. Employee barely spoke and offered no explanation for lack of bathroom access. Very disappointing. read more

Fast & friendly service in the drive thru. I really enjoyed my Girl Scout cookie thin mints blizzard, I couldn't put it down! My husband loved his strawberry cheesecake blizzard. Definitely will be back! read more

I initially ordered a Reese's pieces blizzard and realized that's not what I wanted. They made me a peanut butter chocolate blizzard and it was delicious! Thank you for accommodating me!! Very much appreciated!! read more

Stood at the counter for about 7 mins waiting for someone to take our order. There were several employees in the prep area, and finally one who was also doing the drive thru came over and helped us. She was friendly, and quick . It's too bad if they have her doing both window and counter, not an easy task. The location was not busy. I live walking distance to the location in Bermuda dunes, but choose to drive here for the better service and quality of food. Really disappointed in this visit And definitely will not recommend. read more

Hard to beat a blizzard Fast service Easy in & out nice easy to get to location Beat on a hot day, but good anytime read more

My boys always love coming here after a hard day at Monroe Elementary. For that, I am grateful :) read more

I went through the drive thru, paid, waited 10 minutes for my ice cream. I had to remind them I ordered an ice cream which I could see had been sitting on the counter for a while. As they brought it to me they did the infamous flip upside down to which a mess was made. Instead of getting me a new one, she cleaned the cup and passed it to me. I'm so disappointed as I am a former employee and know these ice creams are worth more that this. read more

This place is awesome, if you enjoy eating your chicken strips with no gravy. The employee kindly let me know they haven't had gravy for weeks. So I called the DQ in Cathedral City and they were beside themselves upon hearing this location was graveyless. They said they never run out. Now I'm gonna try and wash these dry chicken tenders down with this burnt toast. Thanks read more

Dairy Queen Grill & Chill - Burnt toast - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Indio, California

Pulled up on a Saturday night. Drive through was packed! The line moved fast though so don't let that discourage you. Our order was large and slightly complicated, however, the person taking our order was so kind and patient. Our order was done perfectly and was so DELICIOUS! My only complaint is that there was not a tip jar for me to leave the hard working staff a tip. Every little bit helps, so please consider making this an option for your staff. read more

When they say grill and chill they mean it, I walk in and all of a sudden one of the employees drag me into a dark room and sit me down at a table. They then grab a flash light and shine it in my face asking were I was on the night of September 7th 2001 and I say at Dairy Queen and then they let me go and I get some ice cream and chill read more

Terrible service. Stopped by to get some food on Sunday September 24, 2023 and the place was extremely dirty, only a couple of small tables seemed clean. Waited for 5 minutes before someone tells me they will help me soon (keep in mind there are no customers inside). Waited another 2-3 minutes with no one attending me. Decided to leave and spend my money else where. Will definitely not come back. read more

Epically slow and indifferent service from help that simply has no clue or supervision on how to treat customers. Someone needs to train these kids! read more

Really great customer service. The food is always fresh. The restaurant is always clean and fully stocked

Awesome customer service every time I come here. Love how they decorated for Halloween and now for Christmas! You can see they make their burgers and fries to order I always get them freshly done without even asking the cashier to make sure my fries are fresh and crispy. read more

No gravy for 2 weeks?!!!! Unbelievable! Take it off the menu if you don't have it. My gravy addiction is driving me crazy. I might need to be admitted to a special care center read more

Okay, I was soooo excited when I found out Indio was getting a Chill n Grill! I absolutely love the chicken strip baskets with the white gravy so much I always order an extra gravy to also dip the Texas toast and fries in too! The first time I stopped I went through the drive through ordered a six piece chicken strip basket with an extra side of gravy! After paying at the drive through the girl tells me we are out of gravy as she hands me my meal! I tell the girl this is the only reason I stopped specifically for the gravy! She explains she is sorry, I didn't want any extra dips, driving away In disappointment I looked at my receipt only to notice I was charged for an extra gravy!!!! My second return, thinking my first had to be an isolated incident a week later, I drive into the line at the drive through and once again order my six piece basket and extra gravy! I was immediately told this time we are out of gravy! I tell the girl this is the only reason I stopped and she also tells me I'm sorry! I had 3 vehicles in front of me so at this point it's wait in line for nothing or take my chicken strip basket as is! I chose once again to keep my order but only because I didn't want to be that idiot stuck in line waiting for ten minutes for nothing! After getting my meal the girl hastily closes the window and says here you go! I drive off in disappointment again throw the chicken strips on the passenger floor only to realize after driving off she forgot to give me my drink!!!! I had no intent of turning around and going back! Third times a charm right! NOPE! Some days later and still with the chicken strips from my last trip rolling around on my passenger floor I stop again! This time I walk in! I immediately order my strips and gravy asking the girl if they do indeed have gravy! I overhear the girl asking somebody in the back if we have gravy, the voice says you know we haven't had gravy forever! Apparently for weeks as my first experience was more than two weeks ago! Wanting nothing else I tell her I don't want the strips but not wanting to walk out empty handed I ordered a chili cheese dog! After waiting for what seemed like forever I leave with my food! Being at work and in a hurry I didn't open it until my job site! Guess what!!!? A plain hot dog!!!!!! OMG! I will never be returning to this location and will never recommend them to anybody!!!! read more

I was really hoping to like this place because it's the new establishment and the one off of Washington is the worst. That being said, I was very disappointed twice in a row. They cannot get a banana split, no strawberries, no pineapple, hot fudge only correct. And I ordered another hot fudge sundae and they gave me a blizzard. I waited 20 minutes for this and everybody who had ordered after me had already been served. The first time I came here, they gave my grandson the wrong banana split three times in a row. I went to talk to a manager named Laura to tell her my issue but she didn't care, she just walked away. When I got her back and asked her for the owner managers phone number, she walked away again. I do not recommend this place, not only do they have bad service, but when you talk to them about it, they just ignore you. Apparently they don't care!!! If I could give it zero stars I would... read more

Very clean , great menu items , fast service, thank you for being in Indio so close ,,

Made a big mistake to stop here for ice cream. After being open nearly a month no one knew how to make ice cream. No chocolate was available and vanilla had absolutely no taste. One of the help dropped bag of ketchup But made no effort to clean it up. I brought it to the attention of Manager and I use that title loosely. Customers waited so long they cancelled their orders and demanded a refund. Too bad the owners didn't care enough to stick around to see this place run smoothly. read more

my grandpa loves going there! Two young ladies greet him and give him the bomb ice cream cones

​ ordered banana split had been anticipating to stop by , when I got my banana split I've always remembered that a banana split comes with chopped nuts marshmallow and all the other goodies I guess I'm just old school what I asked if I could get that they said oh that's extra you got to pay for it give me a break what happened to taking care of your guest? Sad It's all about returning to Baskin Robin's read more

Order a small Blizzard and got one that wasn't frozen. Didn't even fill the cup! Usually when you order one they are mounded and they tip them over to show you they are frozen, this one would have dumped liquid all over the floor!! read more
