Service is extremely friendly - my type of easy vibe. Plenty of seating - no issues here! I am disappointed to rate so much lower than the average but some clarity needs to happen. Savory Crepes sound amazing but both versions we had were disappointing. The turkey crepe was deli meat and to be honest, that feels very cheap for a 20$ dinner/lunch. The chopped cheese was painfully salty. And, to make it worse, the meat was horribly over-cooked. Thin patty of meat cooked through that much offers nothing for taste or texture. Overall, both items were disappointing. The biggest surprise is the one Single option for dessert. I understand they want to be a savory crepe place. But, the items that are used for desserts are often cheap to store and last a while, limiting waste. Why a restaurant wouldn't want to offer BOTH savory and sweet is beyond me. They are across from a taphouse and next to a Pizza/Brewery - diners aren't getting dessert there. Why not fill that need and get all of those customers?? We came back to try "PH" which is all you ever see of "Papa Headz" - Back ally window ordering? No thank you. We ordered inside: Smash burger and fiesta fries. Again, the meat patties were so over-cooked (and came out so fast) I'd bet anything they are pre-cooked, re-salted, and put back on the grill long enough to warm them up. They are terrible. If I have to choose between over-cooked and over-salted meat patty or deli meat, I'll choose no thank you. And dear God, not everyone wants banana dessert :/ Difficult to find parking / Food not for me. read more

*No More 69 ~~ Gabino's 70th Positive Review* I'm not going to go on & on with my storytelling rants, sprinkled with facts, humor and sarcasm. Because all the other 69 reviews are true & legit. Okay, maybe I'll express myself a little bit... Marcel & Gabino's rocks. I mean rocks. Had the pleasure of meeting the man Marcel himself without realizing he's the humble and happy face & brains behind this creative spin on savory crepes. And what did we talk about? Baseball and the Dodgers of course, because he was sporting a cool chocolate brown Dodgers hat that caught my attention. And my Mom's too. That's right my Mom. She eats gluten-free (and loves the Dodgers) I had been waiting to surprise her and bring her here ever since I discovered this place from Diners, Drive-in's & Dives and been following all the 5-star reviews of his newborn location in Indio, that's deserving of the Rookie of the Year Award. What did we order you ask? Mom: Gluten-Free Chicken Caesar Crepe (dairy-free) without cheese baked in to the crepe, and no cheese sauce too. And tho their "secret sauce" is dairy-free, she sampled it before placing the order (Marcel's idea) but it has a bit of a kick of spice she wasn't in the mood for. But Mom still LOVED every bite of her crepe cone...and can't wait to go back. Here's some of Mom's greatest hits: "Wow this is really good" "The chicken is so good" "There's so much chicken" "This has so much flavor with just the Caesar's dressing" "I can't believe how crispy they're able to make a gluten-free crepe" "Good thing you got extra napkins" "I can't believe I ate the whole thing" "Thank you for bringing me here" "I can't wait to come back" My Choice: I went with the Chicken Pesto Crepe without cheese sauce, with the "secret sauce" on the side. Tho I don't eat too much gluten & dairy, I wanted the full effect of my first crepe here, that's cooked with cheese into the outside, because I've never experienced any crepes served like this. And glad I did because it was bursting & packed with so much flavor (even without the cheese sauce) and the "secret sauce" on the side -- which is kinda like a spicy mayo that's the consistentcy & color of tarter sauce. Every bite was absolutely Triple-D-Licious. Even the bites without any sauce because the chicken pesto has the perfecto Italian flavor that's fantastico. Along with the crispy crepe cone and the fresh and crisp romaine lettuce, it's the prefect combo of savory, crunchy on the outside, and soft on the inside. It truly is one-of-a-kind delight. A special shoutout to Mason, who I had spoken with on the phone a few days prior, to ask some questions about their crepes and dietary restrictions. He told me to ask for him when we decide to come in because he wanted to meet me & mom. Though the inside decor has a cool & comfy vibe, Mom & I wanted to sit outside on the patio on the side of their building and enjoy the beautiful first day of spring. The patio overlooks a small park next-door, train tracks with moving trains on the other side, and an amazing painted wall of flowers on the side of their corner building. After we finished eating, Mason came outside to ask how we enjoyed our crepes and some more playful banter. Couldn't ask for more kindness & charisma from this charming and eager young man. Mom agreed. As you can see & read, I really enjoyed myself & lunch. Gabino's Creperie propelled itself into the top 5 of my favorite things I've eaten in the Coachella Valley. I told Marcel that when we struck up another conversation before leaving...and told him I'll definitely be back with my wife and want to try the Turkey Crepe next time...and he says "that's my favorite one." But wait there's more: rumor has it the Cheesesteak Crepe that's only served on Fridays (seen on tv with Guy Fieri) is outrageous and a must...so I'll need to try that one too. Little did I know: because I checked-in via Yelp upon arrival, the next day I received an email from Gabino's offering me $5 off my next visit (expires in 30 days) Great marketing. If you're still reading: make sure to leave on the brown bag paper wrapping surrounding the crepe cone. Because the oil from the cheese on the outside of the crepe can get a little messy & greasy. I usually don't like grease with my food. But this entire experience was well worth the grease on my fingers...and the one drop that landed on my lap ;-) so make sure to ask for extra napkins. Whether you like crepes or not, I highly recommend you give Gabino's Creperie a try and decide for yourself. Because you will not find anything like it anywhere. {{{Big High Five}}} OutStanding-Ovation Grandslam I'm a Fan read more

I absolutely love crepes and eat it all the time but Gabino's crepes are so unique. If they had these somewhere near a sporting event or concert, people would go nuts for it. The outside crusted cheese is so unique and delicious. We ordered online and our crepes were ready for us within 15-20 mins and packaged for an easy pickup. We ordered: 1. BBQ Chicken: This was my main one that I ate and I loved it. Large pieces of chicken with very high quality flavorful BBQ sauce. I love the texture of the crepe and the crunchiness of the cheese on the outside. 2. Chicken Pesto: I only had a small piece and it was very delicious. Nice pesto flavor. 3. Cesar: Also just had a small piece but it was also delicious! Cesar salad flavor with nice crunchy texture from the outside cheese. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overall, it's worth the price for the crepe. The crepes are huge and very full stuffed with toppings. 4 people shared the 3 crepes and it was plenty of food for all of us. Everything inside was high quality and delicious. Pickup and service was excellent. Inside looks completely new. Street parking outside. I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area visiting again. read more

Funky little joint with great food! My BBQ Chicken crepe was the best crepe I've ver had. Chicken pesto was great too. Service was quick.

First time customer and Gabino's did not disappoint! Great selection of savory crepes. Great portion that is fresh and full of flavor! I could only eat half even though I wanted to eat the whole thing! The outside cheese skirt on the crepe itself is chef's kiss! The crunch, the saltiness, everything about it.....delicious! Service was friendly. I love watching them make the crepes! So mesmerizing! Love the laidback atmosphere. Nice and cool inside the dining area. Very clean and inviting. Will definitely be back!

My experience there was very nice! I had came with two of my friends and this was the very first place we stopped by. Upon arriving I was the first one to place my order, I'd call for a chicken pesto crepe sandwich, an orange poppi and a strawberry milkshake. However there was a bit of a silly confusion on my part when it came down to ordering the milkshake it wasn't exactly put in but the lady who took my order was very sweet and it was fixed immediately. :) The decor there was very simple but elegant which was very much appreciated.! read more

Crepes should only be made this way. Phenomenal savory bundles of joy. And the Indio location is such a vibe. Big open space, industrial feel, pleasant staff who are working very hard--it's just awesome. But the crepes, nothing like we have ever had. My kids love the pepperoni pizza, and I for sure love the chopped cheese and chicken pesto. Owner is local, and pours into the community and helps serve and make the food as well. Forever will come here and to their Palm Springs location. read more

Had no idea what to expect, but this wasn't it! What a great surprise! Absolutely delish. Filling too. Ambience is industrial interesting. There is patio seating, but we sat inside. Seems to be getting good traffic even with the challenge of street construction. Looking for something different? Give Gabino's a try! Be sure to check their hours in advance! read more

The crepes were really delicious and rich. I loved the crispy cheese on the outside. My spouse's chopped cheese could have used a side of jalapeño or pickle to cut the richness but I thought my chicken pesto was just right. I do wish we'd ordered the birria special to try it too but that would have been too much food. The service was friendly and the space was clean. Definitely a good stop. read more

Stopped by Gambino's last night. I got the BBQ Chicken crepe and my wife the Pesto Chicken. Both were freakin delicious and I would highly recommend. That said it is quite expensive for what is essentially a fast food experience ($50 for 2 crepes, 2 cans of soda and 2 small bags of chips). Id also like to see them have sides other than bagged chips and a legit drink setup (just cans and bottles). TLDR: Not much going on here outside of the expensive crepes, but they are good! read more

Food was great. Triple smash burger and pesto crepe. Atmosphere is nice and quiet. Focus on not too many items. Sweet people.

I don't get the hype. At all. When a place is this hyped, it always reminds me of the pseudo-hype TKB got back in the day for mid sandwiches. When we arrived, we were greeted by the cook. He seems nice. Go to the register, start looking at the menu and the cashier seems disinterested. We ask her about a couple of the items and she points to a closer menu and just says, "The ingredients are right there." She wasn't overtly rude, but more flippant. For a more niche place like this, I'd expect more of a personalized experience- not one I can get at McDonalds. That was off-putting. The food is done quick and I can't remember the name for them, but one was like a burger. The first bites are all lettuce and the meat has fallen down into the bottom of the cone shape. And when I finally do get to the meat of it, it tastes like something I could have made at home with the exception of the crepe. It was like $35 for two crepes and the other person was still hungry. And we didn't get any sides or drinks. Probably won't be back. read more

Amazing! Craving another one already!!! Look forward to them being in downtown La Quinta soon!

Shrinkflation...has struck Gabino"s! I visited the original in PS...this past February...and my Chicken Pesto was HUGE. Today we went to Gabino's East and for the same price...it was HALF THE SIZE. Still excellent in taste! Not sure the size warrants the price. read more

I absolutely love crepes and I was super excited to try this gem. The ambiance was cute and clean to start. We arrived around 11ish on a Sunday and there was a couple parties sitting down. We ordered and got our food within 10mins or so. My husband got the chicken, I got a bbq chicken salad and we also got the bananas and Nutella. We decided to order food to go for our kids and at this point the restaurant was half full and 2 parties ordering. We ordered our food and as we sat the restaurant looked like it was visibly getting busier. 30mins passed and still no food. I checked on our order and the cashier said they had too many online orders. Come find out they hadn't even started on ours. After 45mins ours was finally ready. Because we had to wait so long, the cashier gave us a drink on the house. Just for recommendation purposes. When you have an indoor dining that is getting packed, might have 2 work on dining in orders to keep up and after you catch up crank the Togo online orders. So why the 3 stars, 1. Was the wait, 45mins is ridiculously long for 2 crepes and a salad. 2. The banana with Nutella crepe tasted awful, the cheese they put on the outer crepe clearly was not CLEANED WELL before making the sweet crepe. Cheese, Nutella and bananas do not go well. read more

We wanted to go try this place, had seen post about it on Instagram from a local realtor that reviews upcoming or newly opened businesses. We always like to support new businesses. The food was good flavorful, and generous in portion, nothing to rave about though. It was a Wednesday evening, went there with family. Place was not busy at all they had only a group of 4 individuals seated at a table already eating. Employees were nice but not welcoming and not attentive. We were asking questions about the menu, it was obvious it was our first time. Staff member taking our order didn't bother to make recommendations or any sort. Since it's new place they should try to offer or suggest something. It's fast food restaurant, you order at counter they bring it to your table. They served our food, but they had forgotten to prepare one of our orders. The way you get your food it's almost like a to go even though we said we are eating in. Each crêpe sandwiches came wrapped in parchment paper packed in a small size soup cup, made it difficult to eat. Would have preferred to get a paper plate, forks and knifes to cut into, or even double triple wrapped in parchment paper to be useful as plate,(like subway). We ordered chicken wraps and burger wraps. They didn't provide enough napkins so had to go to counter no one was there all staff were in the back kitchen. They couldn't see me so had to ring bell to get their attention. I asked if they had plates as well as napkins because it comes in the small soup cups. Let's just say we wanted to support them as they just opened, however they would need work on the small important things out. The soup cup container is not functional, napkins should be available at every table or at least at the counter, as you will need napkins since you're eating with your hands. It was staffed but not front to be available for customer. They have plenty of seating inside or outside. You definitely would need to wash your hands after eating here. Their bathroom was accessible from the outside around the back of the place. Location is good, in the up and coming part of old town Indio. Price point was $$ for fast food considering key missing parts. Hopefully they'll consider my suggestions. Also, it seemed as the location is being used for another type of food back side of the building was an ordering window looked a different menu. They were serving food through window. read more

This was my second time coming to Gabino's. I managed to convince my boyfriend to give this place a try instead of going to our usual spots we tend to rotate and I'm so glad I was able to because he absolutely devoured the chicken caesar, so we just added another food spot on our list. Everything was super savory & very filling. read more

Stopped in while passing through town. The service was great. The crepes are savory with the perfect amount of crunch. We had the chicken Caesar and the chopped cheese. Both fresh and delish.
