    Amazing ribs!
    Amber H.

    This place is a hidden gem truly!! I had no idea walking in that my socks would be blown off! The ginger drinks were phenomenal. The service was incredible and everyone is friendly! The gravy, I would love to buy a tub of. It's the best gravy I've ever had and that's someone coming from the south! Anything you do add gravy on top and you will not be disappointed. I also have to give a special mention to the curly fries. It's the best of both worlds. They have the creaminess of a mashed potato on the inside and an amazing crunchy exterior! We have definitely become regulars here.!! I also love that they give you the option to dine on either side. There is the bar and biker side and also the family dining side but either way you can't go wrong! The ambience and vibes are amazing!

    I visited Snake Bite on a Saturday evening for dinner with a party of 16, so we made a reservation in advance. Since it was still fairly early in the evening, parking was easy & there weren't too many other customers when we arrived. The workers were so friendly & funny. I loved the fun decor & the billiards table. I ordered their chili & really enjoyed it--I also got to try dishes & drinks from my friends & thought everything was great. I appreciated their drink deals too, though my friend's Negroni slushy was more of a standard Negroni than an actual slushy. Would visit again!

    I really enjoyed this place! Great atmosphere, the vibe is fun. It feels like a mix between a country bar and a diner. The server and all the staff were super friendly, some things did take a little longer than expected but it was busy. The food was really good! Everything cane out super hot, had great flavor and the menu had unique options to pick from. We have learned that Joshua Tree doesn't have a ton of places to eat, so I was expecting the options we did have to not be great, but every place has been good.

    Came here with a group of 12. For starters, this place was the only one I've been to that said they would have to split the checks in 3 groups and would refuse it do it otherwise. One of the people I was with had a lisp and the waitress laughed and at him. On top of that, the food was very overpriced. Had to leave and not look back.

    No better way to end the day at Joshua Tree than to get a bite to eat here. Great historical spot where the pool table in front is the same pool table that The Rolling Stones and the Beatles played on. I got the Snakebite Burger and it was incredible. Hit the spot and the house fries were just as good!

    Yummy food Got the street corn Wings Cajun pasta All 3 items were a hit and drinks were great as well. Definitely recommend !

    This was my first time here. This is a must visit ! The ambiance is a mix of different atmospheres. You get an intimate feel with the dim lights and candle lit tables. Then you get an old school dive bar feel, at the bar section, and see the pool table. Next you get a throw back dinner feel, when you walk to the other side of the restaurant. So there is a little for everyone here. I love that. There are five TVs on up high and around the room. They were showing spaghetti westerns, Bonanza, and National Geographic. The service was outstanding. Even with a short staff. The host, waitress, and bartender took care of everyone. The hostess, I think her name was Tabatha. Was taking care of new customers, cleaning tables, and checking on tables. She was hustling. Emily was my waitress. She was such a delight. She had a constant smile, and was so polite. She made me feel like I was a regular there. Emily checked on me multiple times, and gave great conversation. I ordered the Roasted Chicken. It was extremely juicy. It was also seasoned to perfection. Now they make this when ordered. Meaning it will take around 25 min to make. The chicken also came with asparagus. Now the asparagus was had a light crisp bite, and was also seasoned to perfection. The dish also came with mash potatoes. But I substituted for a house salad. The salad was fresh, had fresh Parmesan shavings on top. They have a variety of food for the whole family. The only con I would say. Is that the lights are very dim. So it is a little hard to read the menu, or your bill. I will definitely come back.

    Western Burger and fries
    Ashley R.

    Came here during a thunderstorm lol had to run in super wet but it was unexpected and fun! Service was nice & friendly. Our waitress had great recommendations. For the starters we had chicharrones with salsa & the corn with chips! Both were yummy and light starters. For entrees we all had western and snakebite burgers and a lemon butterbow tie pasta! It was definitely delicious. The burgers has good flavor the fries were BOMB and I would drink that homemade ranch! lol The pasta was really good and flavorful I add shrimp because I didn't realize it had grilled chicken in it but I def say the chicken is better than adding the shrimp. The pasta was light and very lemony. I would def try the Cajun pasta next time! And you can't go wrong with the burgers and fries. Overall a good experience with delicious food! Definitely will be back next time we are in town!

    Snakebite Burger

    Wanted to check out a restaurant for Joshua Tree and this place came up. Lots of parking spots and got a table in 10mins. They have a bar where you can wait for your table. Everyone was helpful and polite. Promptly got our orders. We enjoyed the pork tacos and elotes (slightly spicy) however, the Snakebite Burger wasn't as tasty as I expected it to be. I'd probably try something else if we come back here. It does feel more like a bar environment than a restaurant which seems to be the case for a lot of places here. I don't mind it.

    I came here back in October while on a birthday trip for my girlfriend and to this day, I still think about the food and our wonderful waitress, Tabitha. The ambiance inside the restaurant is unique and very fitting for a place around Joshua Tree. I'd drive back down from the North Bay just to come back here

    Went to Snakebite Roadhouse and loved the place. The decor is awesome and fits the desert vibe perfectly. It's the kind of spot where you notice details everywhere you look. The staff was friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Service felt easy and genuine. The food was amazing and the cocktails were just as good. Everything we ordered came out on point and clearly made with care. This is a great addition to Yucca Valley and a place I'd happily go back to for both food and drinks. Highly recommend checking it out.

    Meg C.

    Cool space and vibe, but the cocktails and the food were a miss for us, and service was slow. I'm a fan of green chartreuse and tried the Mojave Green which was a starred beverage, but it was super sour and not balanced at all. Had the Cajun pasta for dinner which was a huge portion, but way over salted, so I could not finish it. We liked that the menu wasn't just burgers/hotdogs, that was a draw for us, but it just didn't really align to our taste buds.

    Absolutely recommend snakebite if your driving through town. I stopped by and are so pleased with my decision of dining here the vibes were perfect and restaurant was unique. The entrance was amazing you have to stop by and check it out. The dining area is towards the back and gives you a retro vibe of a 50's coffee shop. I kept it simple and had a burger.

    Tasty

    Mediocre food, uninspired new-American menu. Kitschy diner decor in one half of the restaurant was neat. Prefer other spots in the area.

    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!
