You take one sip and immediately get it. By the second, you're already planning to order another. There's something about it that feels intentional... like it wasn't just made, it was crafted. Balanced, elevated, and honestly unforgettable. If you go, this is the drink. No question. It's not just good--it's the one you'll be talking about after you leave.

I had THE DOUBLE CUT CHOP™. Marinated & pan-fried, topped w/ roasted pobiano peppers, jalapeños, onions, served w. asparagus. Also had the horseradish smashed potatos. So good.

It gives off a biker bar vibe just by the looks of it. On one visit I asked my buddy if he had ever been to Wooden Nickel. He admitted that he was a bit intimidated by its appearance. I told him, "Well we're going today"! Off we went. My buddy, my wife Becky and me. We headed down the hill. It was about a 10-minute walk to the primitive parking lot. There was a Ford F150 pick-up truck out front with a huge smoker trailer behind it billowing smoke. The air was filled with the wonderful aroma of smoking meats. We walked inside and it was pretty much what we were expecting. Low ceiling, dimly lit, bar seating, a few tables and a couple of pool tables. We bellied up to the bar and were warmly greeted by the bartender. We ordered our drinks, and I noticed a menu on the table. On this day it was smoked meat. Burgers, ribs, tri-tip, chicken - all cooked right out front. When we saw the pit boss emerge from the behind the kitchen door, we were sad that we already had dinner plans. He was a big 'ol dude wearing a BBQ-stained white apron. We just knew that there was legit food exiting that kitchen. Never judge a book by its cover. Wooden Nickel was great. Friendly folks, cool bartender, smoked meat, cold drinks, cheap prices. There's really not much more to ask for. Wooden Nickel. What a joint!

I figured my best bet was to check local bars so this was my first stop. Unfortunately, fireside lounge didn't have my heart attack in a basket, HOWEVER...that didn't matter Once I took a look at all their other tasty options. Fireside's welcoming, DTE and completely versatile in its patrons. Great music ( early 2000s hiphop ) the night I went made everyone happy. I ended up going for the food, then staying for the atmosphere and people who were there. Pool tables all booked with intensity and admiration...the bar was full and conversation was effortless. Almost a hidden gem in a very industrial area of Palm Springs... So glad we have you Fireside (:

Okay, being totally honest, this wasn't the absolute best food of our entire Joshua Tree-Palm…read moreSprings trip, but a close 2nd. BUT it was definitely the biggest, most positive surprise when it came to expectations vs. actual quality! We landed in Palm Springs late in the evening and were starving on our way out to Joshua Tree. After a quick Yelp search for something open past 7-8pm, this spot popped up. We pulled into a super quiet parking lot and found this tiny little place. Looking at it from the outside, we honestly figured it would just be a quick, forgettable pitstop. Boy, were we wrong. For starters, the place was relatively full for a Tuesday evening! We ordered the duck confit nachos, the kimchi bulgogi sandwich, and the pony wings. Wow! Granted, our expectations were unfairly low walking in, but this turned out to be probably our second-best meal of the entire week--and we ate out every single day! It absolutely crushed it in terms of exceeding expectations. It also helped that we happened to be there on a Wednesday, so all the wines were half-priced! Unfortunately, since we weren't familiar with the area, we didn't know exactly how much further we had to drive to our accommodations, so we couldn't imbibe more in such a welcoming environment. (Missed opportunity, but safety first!) Oh, and definitely save room for dessert--their pie with ice cream of the day was delicious too! If you are passing through, do not sleep on this place. I would definitely come back the next time I'm in the area!

There is a dog friendly patio so we sat out back with our pups and ordered them puppy patties. Service was ok; since we were in the patio and it was a holiday they were super busy so it was understandable that we had to wait quite awhile for things (drinks, check, etc). But they servers all worked together and were nice. They grat parties of 5 an automatic 20%, but it's on the menu so be be mindful of that. The food was not bad. They had a special BBQ menu for the 4th, but didn't have the jalpeno cornbread so we went another direction. We ordered a $5 mimosa and the pretzel bites with BOMB queso and split the smashburger. All were awesome. My friends ordered the chicken sandwich and absolutely RAVED about how good it was!! Overall, this place is awesome and we can't wait to go back and sit at the very lively bar and watch some sports!
