    Turkey bacon in spinach wrap! Grade A ... layered and generous ingredients! 60c for ranch, tasted quality. Hubbs got Goody's breakfast burrito.Grade B-...He said he liked it and was good! Salsa had a little kick. Unsweetened tasted like it was freshly brewed. Service good..food came out quickly! Good amount of seating. Right by Denny's, and rather go here vs anywhere too crowded. Bathrooms decent.

    I was very disappointed with my visit to this "Goody's". I frequently go to a different Goody's which is in Palm Desert. I always have great food, service and clean everywhere. THIS location is exactly opposite. Maricela has to be one of the most UNPROFESSIONAL and CONDESCENDING server/ cashier I've experienced in along time. First I ordered a simple Number 28. She punched in the wrong food and when I asked for no potatoes, she said "Oh you wanted something different, I thought it was eggs and bacon". Then when I got my order she put in the wrong eggs or the chef made the wrong food. I asked for eggs over medium. So when she brought food it was scrambled eggs. I asked if I could get the over medium that I ordered. And while standing in front of me on her headset said "Did he order scrambled eggs? Then she just walked away. When she brought my eggs she said ( while holding my eggs back) " I need those scramble back first!" In a very attitude of a way. Not to mention the bathrooms were dirty and they talk real loud, and not professionally between them and the cooks. I am VERY disappointed with this location.

    Would go to the Dennys right across but finally decided to give this place a shot since family members have recommended it to me. The place inside was clean and a few people, and was able to order right away once we figured out what to get. It was still breakfast time so that's what we got. They do have a good sized menu of different things but wanted to try their French toast. It was about 10-15 min and they bring the food out to your table. Not sure if they do that if it's really busy but it was nice that they did. Especially since at the time of this review I recently had surgery so been on crutches. I finished all my food, except the bacon, which I usually don't finish but it came with the combo I got. The bacon tasted good but like usual salty. But we both enjoyed our food and were satisfied. Definitely would come back to try other things on their menu. Hopefully they are good as what we got for breakfast.

    Supposed to be a 3 piece chicken strips. I got two and a nugget.

    This place was a great spot to eat breakfast! Everything was so so good. The girl at the register was so nice and friendly! We even had a little conversation about my purse she was the sweetest! Wish I got her name so I could shout her out. The inside was also very clean and had AC.

    I'm here a few times a week for years. Staff is always cordial and helpful. Food is good and consistent. Best goodies in the Coachella valley. I think I've tried all of them.

    Philly cheesesteak no green peppers. It was good. But the fries were too salty.

    Such an awful experience. I ordered a tuna melt with avocado and added tomato and lettuce. They did not want to take my coupon. Then I look in my sandwich, there was a piece of avocado no bigger than my thumb! and barely spread on . I went back to tell them. They said that's the amount they put. For $3.60? That's robbery! The girl gave me attitude and try to argue. She even took the sandwich back into the kitchen after I already opened it and handled my food and showed the cooks. She gave me a rude reply on what did I want them to do about it. Either a refund or they could give me more. Umm you mean give me the amount that's worth almost $4? I should've just gone to the store for it. Honestly I should have asked for the refund because the small sauce cup of what they gave me of avocado was worse! It was going bad and already turning black. I didn't want to argue and just left. The lettuce was so old and inedible and there were hard pieces of bread (?) in my sandwich . Also hard breading on the zucchini that could've chipped a tooth! Definitely not coming back! Almost $30 ( almost $14 for the melt alone, zucchini almost $9, two ranches .60 cents each and $3.59 avocado), definitely not worth it!

    We pretty much have tried every location that we pass. It's affordable truck stop style; not up scale expensive resturaunt. *Palm Desert if our favorite. Five stars *Palm Springs IF you eat in, it's great. Drive through I'd pass. *Thousand Palms is okay (photo is from here).

    Pleasantly surprised at how awesome our food was here. I've driven by here for years and never stop. The staff was super friendly, and our food came out extremely fast. Everything was great. The Philly was epic and the others in my group had wraps and said they were great as well. I will definitely be stopping here more often. Keep it up Goody's.

    Interior is nice and clean!

    Fast food choices nearby, but we wanted breakfast and saw this next to Denny's which had more reviews and less stars. Come here and you won't be sorry. Could see our vehicle through the shades and have a nice clean atmosphere, friendly employees and most importantly the food looked and tasted good for a reasonable price. The toast was the only thing I didn't really like. The "butter" texture and taste was more like a very yellow oil. But the three eggs and steak and hash browns were a nice size to split. (We almost always split our food so it's great when the portions are good.) Hubby said the Mexican food that was being served looked good too, so we will try lunch another time.

    This review is solely for their "Goody's breakfast burrito". I don't know what it is, but this location really just does it right!

    Wow! After several "fancy" dinners, we were just looking for a burger spot. Found it!…read moreWe 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!

    On the drive to California, I usually like to stop and try different local spots along the way…read more This time I was craving a burger and came across this place. The food was good overall and definitely satisfied the burger craving. The experience, however, was a little mixed. The service felt a bit awkward at times, and a few interactions with the staff just rubbed me the wrong way. Nothing major, just an odd vibe. The location itself could have been a little cleaner and more polished. I also noticed the Guy Fieri feature on the wall--which is cool--but at the end of the day, the food and experience still have to speak for themselves. Overall, the burger was good, but the service and atmosphere left some room for improvement.

    Found this gem while visiting the Coachella Valley. Like most fine establishments, it's unassuming…read morefrom the outside and heaven on the inside. We came during happy hour and our server, Delaney, was running the show when we arrived. She was helpful, attentive, friendly and provided excellent service. We ordered an Avocado Flatbread, Candied Walnut and Pear Flatbread, Ahi Sashimi and the Mezcal-Rita. Everything was so good. My guest loved the Avocado Flatbread and I enjoyed the Pear Flatbread. I didn't care for the soft pears on it (a crunchy pear hits) but I would order it again without the pears. The Ahi Sashimi was fresh, beautiful presented and a 12/10. I could easily gone for another plate of this. I asked for the sauces on the side, put my own amount and it was perfect! Mezcal-Rita tasted great and was an excellent size. Barrel District has an amazing Happy Hour and extensive regular menu, including many vegan and vegetarian options, which is rare! Usually you have 1-2 options to choose from and there is something for everyone. Visiting the Coachella Valley for decades has now turned into me moving there in a few short weeks. Barrel District is high on my list to frequent and bring visiting family and friends. See you soon!
