best place in indio would come again dont knock it until you try it yes cone get yummy pizza

You ever end up somewhere longer than you expect to be... You have less money than you started with and now... You're hungry. It's the worst feeling so when you decide to eat out instead of waiting until home, it becomes a big deal. The food matters more, suddenly prices seem higher and people's tones trigger into your mind easier. Choosing where to eat matters heavily. Morongo in general has amazing food options and some amazing staff, but when I was there, I chose to go eat at LA Italian in their food court. Remember I'm broke and forced to eat here. Justin was working at the register when I walked up and he greated me as soon as I walked up, which was refreshing. We made small talk and passed a few jokes before I ordered. Oh, those bread sticks are so good! I love Italian food and the quality vs price here was great. I was highly satisfied and when I was leaving, Justin noticed and check in to see how my meal was. I felt forced to eat there and my only option was the food court... LA Italian did not disappoint! Justin made me feel I chose an actual sit down restaurant and I left wanting more. I pass through every Saturday. I will definitely be coming back. read more

I should have read my last review, because during my visit last Sunday afternoon, I had the exact same experience. Only I'm adding another complaint. The pizza (again) wasn't reheated long enough in the oven to melt the cheese. It was like eating a warmed cold pizza, and it made you wonder how long that pizza had been sitting out. But then I find out they only have Pepsi Zero and no longer have Diet Pepsi! I already prefer Coke over Pepsi, so right there, I was bummed out. I ended up getting a Diet Pepsi from Fatburger next door. I hate to say it, but if you want a small pizza, go to the Morongo Travel Center. They also have a large variety of drinks, and all for about 1/2 the price. On a positive note, the employee working was super nice. Just keep that slice in the oven for a couple of minutes longer. read more

Those people who say that there is no such thing as bad pizza have not eaten here. But for $8/slice I wasn't going to throw it away. And at least the toppings were generous. The woman working there was very nice. I feel a little bad about the negative review on the food. read more

Service was quick, cashier was super friendly and helpful. We ordered pizza and pasta which was super fresh. We will be returning

I'm currently here and observing the cashier handling money and food without gloves or washing his hands. Totally disgusted. This place should be shut down immendiately. When I told him to wear gloves he didn't care and refused to answer me. The cashier is a big guy wearing glasses and extremely rude. What do you expect I suppose. read more

my boyfriend came here for a quick bite but the baked ziti pasta gave him food poisoning, he threw up multiple times the second we got home and he only ate at this place. there's other way better options in the morongo food court anyways just stick to those. don't bother wasting your money on food that might get you sick. read more

6 of the last 7 Reviews here have been 1-star ones. That pretty much says it all about this outrageously-priced place with sucky food. Imagine paying $35 for a pizza or $8.50 per slice!!! It was so bad, that I only ate half of my slice and will never again return to this place. And, to add insult to injury, they do NOT accept the Morongo's Player's card for the normal 15% discount as most others do. WHY? BAD MANAGEMENT/OWNERSHIP. read more

Frankie and Christian were amazing servers. The pizza was out of this world. Went here after a concert and it saved my life.

I've been to restaurants where I've followed yelp reviews that were highly rated, and have been beyond disappointed. Luckily I did not read the yelp ratings on this restaurant before trying it because had I done so I probably would've have ate there. I'm glad we tried it because it was not only delicious but the customer service was great. We ordered the baked Ziti, potatoes, pasta, salad, and breadsticks- EVERYTHING was delicious. Even the filtered water was good. And it was topped off by having amazing customer service, the gentleman taking our order was very friendly and patiently waited as we decided what we were going to order. I highly recommend this place. read more

Solid pizza joint, their crust is more pan than hand tossed and the potatoes are really good. The workers are also extremely polite and the wait is nonexistent. Honestly a good place to visit, especially after hitting the slots! read more

Todo estuvo muy rico la comida calientita todo bien, sazonado el pan recién hecho el ambiente muy bonito

I need to give a zero review. My mother knows some English. I don't know the lady with red hair is the manager or not. Offer my mother to get the slice of pizza and side for 10.99. The total was 11.84. My mother gave the cashier $10 bill, $5 dollar bill and 84 cent. My mother was waiting for the change $4 and the guy wasn't aware or didn't know. He insisted that she gave him the exact change. My mother told the manager to check back on camera and the manager told my mom "I don't have time for that". The cashier didn't gave my mother the receipt. I'm going to share this experience to my friends and family to stay away from this restaurant. The pizza wasn't cook fully. read more

This has got to be one of the WORSE food courts in a Casino. Morongo, please revamp your food court. This Italian place is horrible, horrible, horrible... Staff has no energy, food appears to have been sitting for hours!! Just a terrible TASTE all together. Please please change the entire food court! I would prefer to give them a big fat 0 stars! read more

Terrible customer service. My kids wanted to have pizza so I told them to go and see what they want. The cashier saw them and shoo them away so we went next door to Panda Express. Hope they improve their customer service. read more

Out of stromboli, out of ziti out of breadsticks. They don't sell calzones but it's on the menu behind them. Stuffed slices look dry and old, so I say I'll pay for the ziti and wait the 10 min for ziti and they said I have to get out of line and pay for it when it's ready and get back in while when the line is like 10 ppl long. Horrible customer service. Pizza was dry and I don't like a lot of sauce, but it was clearly there a long time. read more

This eatery is inside Morongo Casino food court. I checked out most other eateries, Good Time Cafe, the other restaurants, and I felt this had the best value for a lunch. It is not run by Morongo. They do not have the 10% off slot card discount. I settled for the Ziti and 2 meatballs, one side and a breadstick for $15.99. Piecing out the meal, the Ziti comes in a 24 ounce foodservice container that was almost filled to the top. The meatballs were on top. The meatballs were the size that Pechanga food court has for $3 each al a carte. Breadstick was wider than Olive Garden size and had an herb-like seasoning that was good. The side green salad I chose was in about an 8 ounce foodservice container. Salad was fresh, crisp, and good Choice of 3 dressings in a cup, Italian, Ranch, Caesar. For me, I was happy with the service, food quality, and food court seating. I was there at about 11:15am on St. Patrick's Day. It seems the best value is with the meals as opposed to the pizza slices. I was satisfied, relative to the other choices in Morongo eateries. read more

Nothing but kids working here. Wouldn't give the supervisors name. Very unprofessional, wouldn't recommend this spot at all. Attitude all around during closing time. read more

Just ate here....but noticed the guy on the left (in the dark shirt)....he just finished collecting money from a customer, didn't see him wash his hands, went to the oven to pull out a tray of meatballs, and without any gloves....used his bare hands to put them into a container ....and placed them into the steamer tray in ordering area (with the marinara sauce) ! I would advise not ordering any spaghetti & meatballs for $10.29 + tax. The guy in the white shirt (on the right) is probably his boss....and he had the spaghetti and meatballs....nice!!!!! read more

Just wanted to give a follow up to my prior review for this location. I received today 2 cards for a free pizza slice & side the next time I go to Morongo and visit the food court. Shout out to LA Italian Kitchen for not only hearing my review but acting on it to keep me as a customer! Many Thanks Your response is a testiment to your Companies loyalty to its customers read more

Terrible entitled management, rude behavior from disrespectful employees, lack of teamwork (3 registers at the front and yet they only have 1 person working on it when a line builds up) overpriced greasy (yet somehow dry at the same time) mediocre food. Disrespect to real delicious Italian cuisine and basic work ethics and morals. Never wasting my money or even thought of this disgusting place ever again. read more

L A Italian Kitchen - The abomination stuffed broccoli and spinach slice. Would rather have pineapple on pizza than this dry and flavorless disgrace. - Italian Near Me - Cabazon, California

My husband and I made a pit stop at Morongo Casino and decided to get a bite to eat while we were there. They are right next to the Fat Burger. We ordered two slices of pizza. One had Meatballs and Pepperoni and the other was Hawaiian (ham and pineapple). When you Check-In, you'll get 10% off on your purchase. I wasn't really expecting much from this place. After all, we are in a casino food court. We were both hungry and wanted our stomachs to stop growling. I was actually impressed by the pizza which was nice and hot. The crust had a nice texture... it was crispy and had a nice chew. The meatball they put on the pizza was really flavorful (not bland at all) and the sauce was decent. The lady helping us was also really friendly. 96/100 Reviews for 2014 read more

Amazing pizza. Every time I walk by this place, the pizza looks fresh and appetizing. Located in the food court inside Morongo Casino, this is an excellent choice for lunchtime. A large pepperoni pizza, about the size of Costco's pizza, is $16. That's a good price, considering where it's located. Yum! read more

Food was also great and his manager was awesome too!! Thank you erick for your service and making dinning during covid a pleasure!!! We Will be back again! read more

Food was too greasy to eat. Pre-made items are re-warmed but did not change the quality . Disappointed read more

This place used to be adequate but it is obviously wildly expensive considering it's in Morongo casino. For a crazy ass $11 for one slice of stuffed pizza and a water this place used to be pretty good but it has seriously gone downhill. The last two times I've gone they've cut their portion sizes buy at least 30% and there's virtually nothing on the inside of the pizza. What I received was an overpriced triangular breadstick. This place is horrible now and the service rivals the food. Everyone I go to the casino with says the same thing and they all go to the adjacent places to eat now too. read more

Roy and Erik are truly one of a kind! Their customer service hits different!!! From start to finish they were beyond pleasant and accommodating!! Thank you for your amazing service!! We will be back because of you!!! The way this manager manages is fantastic!!!! read more

Jesika and Andrea were great! The breadsticks were amazing had to get 2 more. Will be back! Thanks

Solid pizza. I would have to say it was pretty good. I only had a slice of pepperoni and jalapeno and it cost be $6.15 for a very average sized slice. If it wasn't so expensive, I would have given them 4 stars, but for $6 I would expect something amazing from a slice of pizza. read more

We visit the casino alot. Out of all the places to eat LA italian kitchen is our favorite! The food is soo good its always nice and fresh. The crew that works there is great there all very nice and people friendly ive never failed to leave there with more than a smile and full tummy if u have never tryed it I recommend you do cuz its amazing read more

I was gambling at Morongo when I got really hungry and decided to get a pepperoni slice at LA Italian Kitchen. The pizza was okay, but EXTREMELY greasy. I dabbed it with my napkin and it was drenched. I also purchased their garlic bread which was not the worst I've ever had, but not the greatest either. It had too much garlic spread and a bit on the salty side. It's one of the better "fast food" choices in the food court, but next time I'll most likely eat at the casino buffet. read more

These guys are clowns. They wouldn't even deliver less than a mile away to the bowling alley. After an employee told me they deliver the manager got on the horn and said to come to the counter or forget it. I'm sure glad I called dominos they were more than happy to deliver here and they are 7 miles further away than this place. read more

The stuffed pizza was the bomb! We also tried the lasagna which was good considering it's in a food court. Thumbs up!

I would just like to say that I witnessed something tonight by a individual which I belief was the store manager . I was in line to pay for my food which was a pepperoni Calzone in front of me was a individual who was not satisfied with the individual that had helped him . He had forgotten his pizza in oven as the patron started to become upset, The manager who was working up front along side his coworker stepped into take care of the issue and what I witnessed was a calm individual who did everything in his power to make the patron happy . But to no avail I have to say that I very sorry for the individuals that have to handle patrons like this especially in front of a food court with all eyes on them . In this case though the manager was very professional on how he handled the situation . And also by the way the calzone was baked to perfection... read more
