As we trekked out to Palm Springs for the weekend, we were craving pizza and I've had Billy Qs on my list and it didn't disappoint. The location is tucked away in a strip mall among numerous restaurants but judging from the crowd, they are the most popular. There is seating inside and out although it is a small location. Because we hadn't eaten all day we ordered the works pizza which was outstanding! They give you plenty of toppings and the crust was spectacular. Unfortunately we were so hungry we didn't take any pictures but trust me this place is great. I'll definitely be back. read more

First time trying this place and we Are not pizza fans, but ordered "the works"And was highly impressed!! Really nice pizza! Staff was super friendly. Definitely recommend read more

Was at an event near by and staying at a hotel near by and this was a local spot that popped up in the line up. Massive parking lot with tons of parking, we checked out menus at 5 or 6 near by spots and saw a worker from near eating from here. Simple straight forward mom and pop type shop. Typically, a place a would not get pastrami, asked the waiter and he said it was his favorite. Ok, now Im gonna have to try it. Mixed it up and did it Rueben style with house chips. Seriously one of the BEST pastrami sandwiches I have had. My wife had some and thought the same and my mom tried it and she was amazed. This lil spot knows how to make pastrami. and the House chips were pretty over the top too. 122 mile drive for us but might have to venture back for a great pastrami sandwich. Moms salad was also good, massive and we share it and still didnt finish it. Young lady came in and remembered this crew from way back too and that was cool to see. Lots of TVs, good amount of seating and great service. If your out for an event or lucky enough to be a local this spot is worth checking out and if you love pastrami its a MUST. read more

First visit- DELICIOUS! Based on other Yelpers, we ordered a small "Works" pizza and a pastrami sandwich. Pizza was loaded with toppings-Winner for not skimping on the toppings! Pastrami sandwich came with a choice of one side, we chose fries, also very good! Staff were friendly, welcoming, and kind. Indoor dining, casual, with several tables, large TV's and an outdoor covered dining area. Steady stream of local patrons. Definitely would recommend a try! Happy customer here! read more

Food, service and ambience all hit tonight. My first time here and it won't be my last. We shared a large two topping pizza on their sourdough crust. It had no flop and was hot and fresh. The toppings were plentiful and well distributed. The sauce was smooth and zesty. Great wings and garlic cheese bread. All together a great casual Italian eatery. P.s. Darnel was a great server! read more

Not a local but decided to check this place out since it was across the street from my hotel with decent reviews and ratings. This place is located in a large strip mall with ample parking. I got the Dardie's Veggie pizza for take out last night. Although I was grateful for the veggie overload, it kinda felt like I was biting into a piece of bread with a mountain of salad on top. I truly wish the pizza had more cheese. I'm not sure if all their pizzas are made this way but it definitely didn't have enough cheese. Maybe I would enjoy a different pizza more but I was disappointed. Service was fine, no issues there. read more

The food here is fantastic. We had "The Work" medium size pizza, French fries and garlic cheese bread. The pizza had a wonderful crispy crust topped with a large amount of meats vegetables and cheese. Cooked thoroughly to perfection, not undercooked like works pizza can be but just right.the fries were hit, crispy and soft inside. Great flavor even without ketchup or ranch which we also had. The service was chill, laid back and very friendly. I felt like I was being served by good welcoming friends. One downside was the server who took our order, forgot to put it in the computer which caused a 45 minute delay. Taking it in stride he immediately offered to comp the whole meal and drinks, taking the blame upon himself. Stand up guy! I offered to at least pay for the drinks and he wouldn't let me. Regardless of the time delay, we had a great time and the food was outstanding. We will be back. read more

Stop here each year on my way from LA to Phoenix and back. Clean inside, nice people, excellent road trip food. Great pizza, other entrees have been good also. Good beer. Good parking. If I lived nearby this would be a regular place for me. Looks like the strip mall added a fixed patio to add floor space, which actually looks pretty cool if the weather is right. read more

Yummy! Best cauliflower crust I've ever eaten!! my go to pizza place when in palm desert. Friendly upbeat staff and atmosphere.

Best pizza in PDesert have cauliflower crust option and its good. Service and staff always great!

Although their patio dining area has recently been redesigned and greatly improved, and even though can be louder inside we opted for an inside table. We were immediately greeted and seated by the friendly staff. We decided to split one of their massive hot pastrami sandwiches and fries for a quick lunch. The sandwich was served on a nicely crisp sourdough roll. The pastrami was nice and lean and warm enough that if you opened the roll you could see steam. The fries were hot and wonderfully crisp as well. read more

4.3 rating Feeling a need for a good pizza . After searching Yelp I decided on frequent reviewed Billy Q . Decided on a thin crust half veggie with white sauce and half combo. And a Rueben sandwich with fries. This location is easy to find but there is construction going on hiding the front entrance . The pizza was tasty and flavorful with lots of toppings . The Rueben was stuffed and juicy ... a good choice . Nice staff and the food satisfied my craving . No wonder it's so popular with the locals . read more

I'm pretty disappointed in the pizzas especially for the price. Ordered the chicken Caesar and the Greek. Both were burnt and very dry, I've never seen a pizza separate from being so dry. Giving two stars because the non burnt pieces of the Greek pizza actually tasted very good. read more

We checked into the Hampton Inn across the street. We were hungry but didn't want fancy or fast food. We found this place right across the street with great reviews, but u still never know. Well, let me tell u that they're legit. We all ordered something different - a reuben subbing pastrami with turkey, a Philly cheesesteak, and a club. We also ordered the cheesy garlic bread. We all chose a different side for our meals to try things out. for our 3 meals were fries, cole slaw, and potato salad. Everything was delicious: flavorful, tasted sooo fresh, and the service was awesome. My sister is a nickel snob and even loved the side she ordered. Can't recommend it enough. Best thing is that it's super casual. We will definitely go back when we're in town for another concert. read more

My boyfriend and I spent his birthday week in Palm Springs and he saw this place and wanted to go. We both love pizza so it was a win win situation. We got there and it was busy and a cool vibe. There was baseball playing on the tv so we took a seat at a table. All the people working there were very nice and got us our drinks quickly. He ordered a Coke and I ordered a Dr. Pepper. We decided to share the meat madness pizza because they were quite large. It took a while for the pizza to come out but they were cooked to order which is always a good thing. We both really enjoyed the pizza and will definitely be back the next time we're in town. 11/10 for Billy Q's pizza! read more

Stopped by Billy Q's on a Wednesday evening while staying at the nearby JW Marriott. We wanted to step out for a second and found Billy Q's on Yelp. It's a small pizza joint in a shopping center. Pete was our server and was nice and friendly. He mostly talked to my boyfriend about baseball as the establishment is adorned with sports memorabilia. We ordered a small pizza with pepperoni, mushrooms, and sausage on sourdough crust. Yum! Yum! The atmosphere was relaxed, and I loved that there were TVs everywhere. We got to watch the St. Louis Cardinals take on the Dodgers while we ate. Overall, great service and great pizza. Would definitely come back! read more

Just another great experience. Super extra thin crust pizza, great wings, outstanding salads, and even excellent subs. Great staff, good service and cold beer. Plus, they're Cubs and Bears fans. It doesn't get better. read more

EXCELLENT PIZZA! Nothing like a "run of the mill" take-out pizza place, tucked away in a strip mall and commercial area. , that it may appear to be. No. Billy Q'a is a delicious pizza house that you would want in your hometown, and... you'd order at least once a week because it is that good and everybody loves it. Enjoy! read more

One of my go to spots for a Works Pizza with thin crust, just enough sauce and fully loaded with toppings-Best Bite for me! Don't forget the ice cold beers on tap! The service is always friendly with a laid back atmosphere and chill vibes! read more

Super unique pizza. They had a variety on the menu that all looked interesting and try worthy. I ended up getting a split pizza with the Scooters and Cubano for my split. The dough was definitely good, but the toppings are what made it great. Decent service, ended up sitting outside and the staff was very nice but the table was a bit dirty (also was outdoors, so I wiped it down). Nothing that deterred me from enjoying the pizza and sunset. Was in the area for work, would come back again if nearby. read more

August 17 2026 around 5pm First time here for the two of us, and definitely wont be the last!! Excellent menu selections - something for everyone. Service was friendly and professional .. Sourdough crust Pizza was hot and delicious. Next time we will get the thin crust for comparison. Caesar Salad was excellent - perfect size for sharing. Dressing definitely homemade as were the croutons. Very reasonably priced! See you again. read more

The pizza is always so delicious there ..we got the works also got onion rings and lasagna. The service is always amazing thank you Tyler and everyone who make this possible. read more

This is good pizza! Loaded with toppings in fact we were so hungry and enjoyed the flavor so much we forgot to take a picture. . Servers were accessible and efficient. And for this Chicago guy the ambiance of Cubs and Bears decor was right on a taste of home. read more

Excellent takeout pizza. Easy to order. Friendly service. Delicious and it made for epic leftovers. Got the everything. And will get it again. read more

When will Yelp have a 10 star rating? My son at CSU San Bernardino in Palm Desert has often mentioned enjoying the food at Billy Q's which faces the campus a bit north on Cook Street. He brought two pizzas to us last night and they were some of the best this New Englander ever has had in all my 75 years, truly. A vegetarian and a hawaiian only lasted a few minutes with the three of us swooning between bites. I understand this sweet little place has an authentic feel as though I were still standing at a table eating New York pizza near City Hall in Manhattan so now I am figuring out how to get there when we can relax and have space to savor more food. I have been educated by the owners that this great food is Chicago pizza and I wholeheartedly am a huge fan! Thank you, Billy Q's for your brilliant comforting pizza wizardry. read more

Pizza was very good and the salad dressing tasted homemade and was very good. I will definitely be going back when I am in town.

Food is good. One of the few places where I will eat pizza. It's not quite what I'm used to (NY) but it's fresh and tasty. Casual or take home read more

Wow! Amazing food. My husband and I shared the classic sub sandwich. Delicious! It came with a side. We got the fries and they were hot and perfectly crispy. We also had a small pepperoni and mushroom pizza. Great flavor . The pizza was thin crust which we love. We will definitely be back. Thank you Billy Q's read more

fish tacos and burgers are deliciou! and the aperol spritz was perfect. I would highly recommend if you are ever in Palm desert

First off, the food was great. My boyfriend and I ordered sandwiches (Malibu Chicken sandwich and a Tuna Melt) and they were delicious and filling. Fries were tasty and the plain-tasting potato salad balanced out the flavorful tuna melt. Delicious comfort food. Service, however, could have been much better and more efficient. The guy serving us was gone for a long time after he quickly dropped off our drinks. He seemed to be really busy with the tables upfront (we were in the back) and it got to the point where I had to flag him down a few times to get him to come back and take our food order. He wasn't quick about it either and never apologized for making us wait so long. Meanwhile, a group who was sat after us and next to us got prompt, superb service from another server and that upset me greatly that my boyfriend and I were not given the same quality of service. I was livid, but still remained cordial. The group who got there after us got their food order in and their food well before us, and so they also left before us all happy and satisfied while we barely started eating our food. Their server? She was fantastic and ended up closing our check. We should have just had her the whole time, right?! Why didn't our original server just give us to her if he was too busy or overwhelmed? She was so friendly and accommodating to that party while we felt forgotten and not really welcomed. Our original server never came back to us, never checked on us, after he took our food order. The other server, she was so kind and thorough to offer me a to-go cup at the end, but I politely declined because I was just done and wanted to leave. Also, flies. Flies in the restaurant. Very off-putting. We still left a tip, but not as generous as we would have if we were given top-notch service. read more

This must be where the locals get their pizza. It's a hole in the wall, but one with 5 star pizza.

Love love love I have eaten there many times over and nothing they bring out is bad! Great food across the board!

Best pizza in town, keep going back again and again. Home chips are delicious The choice of pizza is for everyone. Small, medium, large, thin or thick. Regular dough or sourdough read more

Wanted some comfort food for a Friday night and BQs did not disappoint. We ordered the pepperoni pizza and a Malibu Chicken sandwich. The chicken sandy was tender, the Hawaiian bun is always a hit. The pizza was absolutely delicious, but a little salty for my taste (reason for the 4 vs 5). Will definitely be back. read more

The service was great! We had shared Lasagna with yummy garlic bread. It was the best lasagna we've had in a long time. There was plenty of meat and cheese and more than filled us up. We had seen and smelled!!! the Works Pizza when we walked in. We ordered a large to take home, but couldn't resist eating some before we left. It was soooo good! I don't like onions, peppers or mushrooms, but the combination with the ton of meat was delicious! I didn't even want to pick anything off. It was even better when we reheated it!!! We will definitely make the hour drive when we need our next pizza and lasagna fix!!! read more

The Work's think crust pizza is probably the best pizza I have ever had! They are generous with toppings and overall a great combination!
