    Turkey Burger
    Janet H.

    Wow! After several "fancy" dinners, we were just looking for a burger spot. Found it! We were seated immediately upon arriving and our waiter, Joshua, who was extremely attentive all night, came over to greet us and get our drink order. We started out with the Drunken Tots. Wonderful! For dinner, I ordered the Turkey burger, and my husband and grandson each ordered the Bistro Burger. The burgers were loaded with all kinds of yummy toppings and we all enjoyed each bite. Meals are served with fries and a pickle. Perfect! Although we were stuffed, we split the Chocolate Chip Bread Pudding for dessert. It was topped with a salted caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream. So good! If you're just looking for a casual burger/sandwich spot, look no further!

    Bison burger in bun, fries & pickle
    Alexandria W.

    This is the second time my husband & I have eaten here while visiting the area in the last couple of years. The bison burger is absolutely delicious as well as the fries. We could have stopped there, but we were interested in trying the chocolate chip banana bread and wow! That was so good too. We were definitely stuffed after all that. I would love to have the bison burger here anytime we are in the area.

    First time here ! So far so good

    SHORT ANSWER: Yes, you should go give this place a shot, it is excellent. LOCATION: Nice location along the 111 near Portola, lots of parking. FACILITY: Very nice, funky inside and well designed. I dined alone outside so did not get in to see too much but it looks fun. MENU: Lots of stuff, maybe nothing too healthy or too small. So if you're going to visit I'd bring a friend to share or run an extra 5 miles that morning. FOOD PREP: Excellent, very nice way above diner food, it looks urban appropriate. FOOD QUALITY: Wow, the ABC sandwich was delicious, sourdough bread was toasted perfect so as not to rip your mouth off when taking a bit. Fries were very, very good, I had to stop myself. LIBATIONS: It appears they are many choices and a separate menu, but dry January you know... WAITSTAFF: So nice, wish I could remember her name but polite and had great sense of humor. OVERALL VALUE: Expensive but well worth it, if you consume a lot of calories this is your spot, if you wish to try and share even better. TIP: I was in for a late lunch off peak time, lots of seating available.

    Fun, small but comfy place to eat. Some high tops and mostly low tops. Burger selection is perfect not too many varieties, just right. They also have salads, and chicken! Appetizers, especially the duck wings! Lots of fun cocktails, on tap and bottled beers to choose from. Excellent service, excellent food and even their specialty aiolies to go! As we always say, "We loved it, you'll have to make your own opnion."

    Amazing! Got my burger fix and an ice cold beer ! Burger was full of flavor and juicy. Service was great it was right at open not to crowded and was able to watch some sports highlights. Not a bad lunch at all

    The Dua Burger

    The food was amazing. The service was amazing like I had the Dua burger and the duck wings perfection they were crispy enough. The sauce was just perfect. They were phenomenal 10 out of 10 for those those wings. The burger was perfect and good like man. It was so good when we come back to Palm Springs they'll definitely be going to this place again cause it was amazing.

    King Mushroom Burger
    Desiree P.

    If you enjoy a good burger head here now. Not nearby save it for another time. It is stupid good. When first looking at the menu it's a bit overwhelming. I could've ordered half the menu. But as a huge lover of mushrooms I went with the king mushroom burger. The patty was cooked to medium rare perfection. THANK YOU chef!! And the mushrooms were heavenly. No mushroom left behind. Next visit, I promise to the servers we won't take as long.

    We love this burger place which has great service, nice atmosphere and excellent food. We plan to come back and I want to try every burger eventually. There is a very good selection of beers and drink choices.

    We came early and was seated quickly, this place has a nice atmosphere and friendly staff. We ordered the duck wings, crisp, sweet and savory, enjoyed by everyone! The drunken tots were good, a bit too salty and the braised short ribs were sparse but lots of chorizo. Every component was salted extra well which made the end product a bit too salty. Still it was good and everyone at the table devoured it. We ordered the kids a side of fries and a grilled cheese with fries. The grilled cheese came out, but we had to ask for the extra side of fries. The kids enjoyed it and the fries are very crispy and delicious. The burgers came out and the ultimate surf & turf was huge! It had chunks of lobster on this delicious burger patty and the Laguna Baja lager paired very well with this burger. Delicious!!! The hangman was also very good, the egg was not very runny, kind of a medium well, but still very tasty. We couldn't taste any tabasco in the aioli and over all it was pretty tasty. We enjoyed our afternoon and left very full.

    Gallego Moderna Salad
    Annie D.

    The food was delicious. My husband had bison burger with onion rings. I had the octopus salad and a side of fries. All were delicious. Bison burger meat was freshly ground. Onion rings were fried to golden delicious. Octopus was grilled to perfection. Mix greens were paired with some orange pieces and apricot dressing. Delicious! Service was friendly and fast. The ambiance is like a breakfast diner. Not too fancy but clean. Beer is cold, hits the spot on a hot Palm Springs day. Will come back when I'm in down again.

    We stopped for late lunch on the way back to San Diego. Onion rings were crunchy & served with 2 different sauces. We ordered a Backyard Burger w fries & a King Mushroom burger w tater tots. The burgers came cooked exactly as we'd requested and were really good. The $3 up charge for tots was a bit of a surprise. The burgers were terrific and service was prompt & friendly.

    Kids' Jessa's Mac & Cheese
    Fiammetta P.

    It's ok, but would not be back. The guy serving us was very nice but it was only a few tables in the restaurant and we waited like a full house. Their beer selection is cool and the have delirious tremens and. Chiang but the actual burgers were meh. I had the bison burger and it wasn't anything special. Fries were well crunchy and I appreciated them. What really disappointed me was that the kids Mac and cheese they charge a good amount for is box Mac and cheese...now that really did it for me. The place was featured in a Guy Fiery show and that's how they are known but it's good bad they don't actually love up to their ratings.

    Hidden Gem! We decided to try a new place for lunch and we were so happy we did. Great service, great food, generous portions and wonderful friendly atmosphere.

I was charged regular price for the Sour Cherry Balsamic Braised Pork Shoulder and Local Date & Arugula Salad. Had the waitress had more availability, I would've received happy hour prices instead. Obviously, this is a management issue. I got the Bay Scallop Ceviche, which was good, but not sure I'd re-order. The Braised Pork Shoulder was definitely worth it and such a fun excursion. The pork was reminiscent of Carnitas, loved the red potatoes, spinach was awesome, and what genius threw cherries in this dish?! I'll definitely return because the hostesses were cool and the floor staff checked in several times.

We also ordered a drink that was supposed to include egg white, but it was served without it. After having issues with four dishes and a drink during the same visit, we felt that something was clearly off with the kitchen and bar that evening. We asked the owner, who was sitting next to us at the bar, whether the chef had changed because it seemed like the restaurant was simply having an off night. What happened next was even more disappointing. At first, the owner pretended that he wasn't the owner and said that he knew nothing about the restaurant. After overhearing our continued discussion about the quality of the food and drinks, he confronted us and said, "We don't need patrons like you at our restaurant. There are plenty of other restaurants for you to eat at. Why don't you just leave?" We were not being disrespectful or unreasonable--we were simply disappointed with the food and drinks and trying to understand what had happened. Being spoken to that way by the owner was insulting, completely uncalled for, and genuinely hurtful. I do want to make one thing very clear: the staff and bartenders who work at Cork & Fork were wonderful. They felt terrible about what happened and made it clear that they believed the owner's behavior toward us was completely inappropriate. After we left, several staff members actually followed us outside to apologize on behalf of the owner for the way he had spoken to us. Their kindness and concern were greatly appreciated, and this review is not a reflection of them. There are many excellent restaurants in La Quinta, and based on this experience, we will be taking our business elsewhere. We would strongly suggest considering the many other fine establishments in La Quinta before choosing Cork & Fork.

    Paradise Cove Cafe is a small, unassuming breakfast & lunch spot that's punching way above its…read moreweight and scoring a whole bunch of knockouts. Located on Town Center Way, it's got the feel and look of most other diner/coffee shops, though the decor includes some beachy elements, I assume in a nod to the famous Paradise Cove empire in Malibu. Walking in, one might expect the usual breakfast suspects to look and taste as they usually do, but the folks in this kitchen are aiming for more and delivering the unexpected. Service is swift and attentive, and our server, Jahlyn, made sure to check on us quite a bit. They've got a long list of Pancake and Waffle variations to choose from, many of which looked like an item out of a Dr. Seuss book, but my wife went simple: a Buttermilk Pancake with Bacon. Okay, you can get this anywhere, but not THIS! The pancake was large and imposing, but light and fluffy while managing to have pleasingly crisp edges. The flavor smacked of vanilla, and blended nicely with butter and syrup, while the bacon had been slowly rendered before being fried, giving it a crispness throughout that even extended to the fat, which melted on the tongue and delivered maximum bacon-ocity! I ordered the Chorizo Con Papas: eggs with homemade Pork Chorizo, Seasoned Home Fries, Sautéed Onion, & Serrano Peppers with Sour Cream on the side. I asked it be made as a scramble instead of an omelet, and they happily obliged. This was a terrific egg dish, perfectly executed and packed with flavor and spice. The homemade chorizo was lean and amply seasoned, while the sautéed onions and sliced Serrano peppers added a serious hit of heat. Sour cream was a nice, cooling foil for the richness and spice, and the potatoes added heft. Biscuits & Gravy served instead of toast were also phenomenal, the rich, flavorful sausage gravy having both a peppery punch and a slight tang from either citrus or sour cream. Paired with buttery biscuits, this was a very savory and satisfying side. There's no question that this little nook is serving some of the very best breakfast in the area -- and no question that you should be planning your own visit very soon.

    Whenever I travel, I like to try the diners and cafés locals recommend. I was in Palm Desert for a…read moretrade show and decided to give Paradise Cove Cafe a try. It did not disappoint. The café sits in a shopping center, so parking was easy--always a welcome change from circling until you're dizzy. Inside, it has the booths and tables you'd expect from a neighborhood diner, plus outdoor seating, a little California sun-and-surf character, and an owner's sense of humor on display in the tower of pancakes on the wall. The music was loud enough to enjoy without making conversation a shouting match. I ordered the country fried steak and eggs and one of the chef's "signature secret recipe" pancakes. My food arrived in about 12 minutes. The steak was covered in flavorful sausage gravy and came with two eggs and home fries that tasted freshly made. The pancake had crisp edges and a moist, sweet center. Add butter and maple syrup, and I can see why the chef keeps that recipe a secret. I'd order it again. Even the tea was brewed in-house. The staff was friendly, and Jacqueline was especially attentive. She kept my glass full and brought extra napkins before I had to ask--a small thing, but she clearly noticed what I needed. The bill was higher than I'm used to paying for breakfast, but it didn't give me heartburn. I left well fed and glad I'd stopped in. My ratings (5 being a great experience) * Parking and atmosphere: 4 out of 5 * Quality of ingredients: 4 out of 5 * Taste of food: 5 out of 5 * Service: 5 out of five * Overall: 4.5 out of 5 If you're visiting Palm Desert and looking for a good breakfast or lunch, don't overlook Paradise Cove Cafe. .
