    BBQ burger with homemade chips and a big salad (like a Cobb)
    Robert C.

    Staff super friendly and helpful, the food was good we got a BBQ burger and salad. Burger was overcooked making it a bit dry but it was tasty meat and the bacon was perfect, smoky abd crispy/chewy, and the homemade chips were awesome!

    Just had an amazing experience at this small-town grill! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere had that perfect cozy vibe. Definitely a spot worth checking out!

    We drove past the restaurant on our way to Joshua Tree for a little hike and once we saw the name we knew where we would be having lunch on our way back! What a great name-especially if you're as old as we are, lol. We stopped in, greeted and told to sit anywhere. The restaurant is small and super cute. Very clean and inviting. Our server came over for our drink order and gave us a minute to look at the menu. We all picked something different for lunch. I had the Italian grinder with potato salad- one of the best potato salads ever! It was so good and so big I couldn't finish it! My friends had a burger with potato salad and a black bean burger, he said the guacamole on that black bean burger was amazing, he had the homemade potato chips. At the end of our lunch the owner came out and chatted with us for quite a while. We loved him and his restaurant! I don't live in California but if I lived in the area this would for sure be a regular spot for me!

    Love the pizza take out at Just A Small Town Grill in Morongo Valley but their dine in breakfast is over the top! After oozing over their menu for 5+ minutes I finally decided between 6 or 7 possibles. We'll be back to try the others! Breakfast service was efficient if not quite as down home friendly as the evening, pizza crew we're regularly spoiled by & it took a little while to get the breakfast but it was almost "too beautiful to eat" & was absolutely outstanding in all respects. You can't find fresher, better prepared & better presented food in the high desert. I'd love to see motorcycle & bicycle parking & outdoor seating.

    When to Just a Small Town Grill, today with my wife and daughter for lunch. I was amazingly surprised at the quality and quantity of the food. We started off with deep fried pickles they were amazing ! My daughter had the Antipasto Salad it was huge ! My wife had the Hawaiian Burger she couldn't stop saying how delicious it was. I had IPA with the Italian Grinder it was packed with meat and the feta vinaigrette added a great taste and the role was a specialty role they have wow ! We met Jim and Stacy the owners they are very welcoming and they gave us an order of Cauliflower Bites and they were delicious ! The feel of the place is truly inviting! Thank you Jim, Stacy and Vanessa for the great meal and service !

    It was our last day in Palm Springs and we wanted some good food . Something we found that was hard to find while in Palm Springs. There's plenty of parking front of the restaurant, there's air conditioning inside and helpful staff. We felt welcomed and our waitress went above and beyond. Ordered a cauliflower veggie pizza. Everything was fresh and made to order. I had a bite of the potato salad. My ice tea was refilled, I couldn't of had a better experience. Thank you for taking care of us!

    This is the Konrad pizza and it was amazing!!!

    This was my first time visiting Just a Small Town Grill and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish! What a gem!! The food was incredible--packed with flavor and clearly made with care. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, and the whole place had a warm, inviting vibe. The restaurant was spotless, and you could really feel the sense of community. The owner was walking around chatting with guests, and it was clear there were a lot of regulars--always a good sign! It honestly felt like home. I highly recommend this place--definitely a 10/10. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

In a nutshell, so happy we went there last night to try the food again. It was so good, the service was outstanding and the ambiance was what was expected. I had the "Rigatoni Bolognaise" it was so good. My wife had the Shrimp Scampi w/garlic butter sauce, again she couldn't stop eating it and our son had the Frutti Di Mare in the wine sauce, what can i say, he devoured it. I know it has been quite a few years since we ate at the Capri, but their quality, portion size (Large so bring your appetite), the service and the price we could not beat. Oh and the "Calamari" appetizer, The BEST I have ever had. We WILL be back. Oh and just so you all know, they do NOT just have pasta, they have a wide variety of items if you're not a pasta person, Next time, i'm trying their steak. Oh and for reference the total for our meal, was only $90 dollars and change. For 3 Meals, drinks and tip. Me and the wife spend that on just the two of us normally. I can't recommend this place high enough!

I explained I'd just driven 2 hours and really needed to go, I was filling my tank, I'm a customer. He said that the floors were wet. I said, I don't mind, I just really needed to use the restroom. He told me, I might slip and fall... I'm an able-bodied grown adult. It's not as though the restrooms were out of order. He seemed to just want to say no for some reason. I'll be consciously choosing to fill up across the street from now on. It costs nothing to be kind to your customers.
