Been coming here since they opened in this location. Good food fast service. Except today. I ordered my breakfast and when it came I asked for xtra gravy for my chicken fried steak the server said "they charge xtra for that and walked away. Wow didn't even give me a chance to ask how much? Anyway I'm done with place their service has been on the decline over the past 12 mo. And there are additional choices near that have just opened. Nice job losing a loyal customer. read more

First time eating at Goody's! Portions were large and food was delicious! I'll definitely be back.

Okay food. But their customer service is bad. No one ever smiles at drive thru and its always hard for them to hear you order through speaker. Employees always seem not happy. read more

Good burrito. I went following a 5k race. Good size and flavor. I live about over 2 hours away in Lancaster. Fast service read more

Staff is rude who takes your order. My grandson sat down while we ordered and got bit by something. told the one of the employees and she ahrugger her ahoulders and gave me a stupid look. why escalate. crappy place to eat. read more

Very bed service. Asked for vegetarian food and got PORK in my plate. They didn't even suggest to replace it....

Love their food, and they are fast the staff is great and friendly. Their servings are large, and the food is always delisious.

Food was good (taco plate). Rude worker in front. Short Hispanic girl with tattoos all over her neck. Didn't greet us and had us standing there for few minutes then with her back turned said, "are you ready?". No smile looked as if she hated her job . Why do they hire miserable, unfriendly, no customer service having hags? read more

Not as great an experience as the first time around. We had trouble getting our food in a timely fashion. Still very tasty.

Where do I begin, ordered take out on 5/15 @ 8:13 p.m. The girl that answered the phone didn't know where she was as she said another name, covered the receiver laughing with a man about it. Took my order, did not repeat it, also told me because it was over a certain amount I had to pay over phone. Picked up my $33.84 order, came home opened it, and one dinner was wrong. It was something i can not eat so I called & explained to the girl on the phone my reason for calling. She asked if I wanted to speak with the manager, I said yes. She didn't place the phone on hold so I could hear the conversation, he did not want to speak with me, she asked that I call back and at point I realized the customer isn't important in this managers eye or I would of been asked to hold until he was available. Nope, I heard him say he didn't want to speak to me. So it was a waste of my money as we had to throw it away because i can not eat fried food. I had been a loyal customer since they opened, Never again will they have my business, That is what I told her on the phone. Daytime employees are great! Never had a problem. This is actually the 3rd time the closing staff has screwed up.. they suck! read more

This location has the worst customer service. They really don't care to make you wait while they mess around in the back. The food has been getting bad too and getting more expensive. This is the last time I eat here. read more

We used the drive through since the restaurant was pretty busy. When we ordered burgers, we said "spread and cheese only" the lady taking orders asked "cottage cheese?" My husband said "no" and repeated our order. We get home and we have burgers with NOTHING BUT COTTAGE CHEESE!! Really? Who would thing anyone puts cottage cheese on a burger. We also had a veggie burger in our bag. It probably belonged to the person behind us. I called several times and no one ever answered the phone. Had I lived closer, I would've gone back. We have to scrape the cottage cheese off the burgers and add our own dressing and cheese from home. read more

The food is standard, the wait is long, and the service is terrible. We were fans at first but this location is the worst. I ordered the chicken breast plate, from the light side menu, and the peaches were bad. I called to let them know and the lady that answered didn't even apologize. She stayed silent and then started talking to someone in the background and then left me holding. She finally returned and then she acted like she didn't know what was going on, so I had to explain again. After I repeated that the peaches were spoiled she said with an attitude, "you want something different?" I wasn't looking to get anything for free, I just didn't want anyone to get sick. We will not be returning, we'll stick with Andy's. read more

I love Goody's, but this one is the worst! Always bad service, I am no longer going to this location, server had my plate of pancakes on top of my plate of eggs! Who does that?!? Never a smile and the person that takes the orders is rude the one that always wears that tacky blue eyeshadow. read more

I love coming here for breakfast just to avoid Ihop(: I've never really tried anything but the breakfast items and those have always been good. Pancakes are delicious as well. read more

Yay, Goody's is back in Indio! Same great variety of diner food. Drive thru available. They have booth seating inside; tables for dining outside when the weather is fine, and a drive thru! There are two wide flat screen TVs. Plenty of space. The tables at the booths are not fixed so if someone is larger in the party you can move the table more over for room. The soda fountain is self-serve and so is the brewed tea. First you order your food and pay, then sit down with your number display and they bring the food to you. Thier chicken sandwich was fresh and tasty. It comes with iceberg lettuce, mayonaise, and tomato on a big hamburger bun-you might want them to add onions. I added a little salt to the tomato. You could have it alone or as a combo (combo includes a regular drink and fries). My assistant had a pastrami. Now be careful there are two types of pastrami. If you ask for a pastrami you get it on the usual pastrami bun but they have another that comes on regular toasted bread I think it's called the Goody's Pastrami. I'm talking here about the regular pastrami. Tell them how you want it. My assistant likes it like I do with mustard, pickles, and raw onions. So specify. Well it was one huge monster of a pastrami and two could dfeinitely share. A bit on the salty side but still good. I say have it with fries if your health permits and don't add salt to the fries. I really like the atmosphere here. Everyone minds their own business. Get a menu when you go because you'll definitely be returning; it's also great take out food if you don't fell like getting off or if you're still in your pj's. P.S. They accept visa and mastercard. Open Daily 6 a.m. (7 days a week!) / Note: For breakfast fans - served all day. read more

Went with family today. Ordered, asked for two to go coffee cups and we sat and waited. Watched as people who placed orders after us got their food. Went up and asked where are order was, after looking thru receipts, they pointed to a to go bag sitting on the counter for 15 minutes. I explained we wanted to eat there, had a number on our table but the manager mistakenly made it a to go order. They redid the order, 2 of 3 omelets were wrong, missing ingredients plus no toast or fruit cup. Told the mgr and he only offered to redo the entire order for a third time. We were hungry and no one else had any difficulty, we waited for the toast, fruit cup and sour cream. Second poor experience at this location in less than two weeks. Will stick with the Washington and Varner locations, different owner and orders always come out correct. read more

We were visiting from out of town and looking for a local joint for lunch. We were pleasantly surprised with this place. The menu selection is huge and the food we ordered was really good. Servings were large enough we couldn't finish it. Tip: zucchini fries are a refreshing break from regular sides! read more

My friend an I visited this place for breakfast for a first time. The food was very good: I ordered eggs with bacon and four pieces of toast,and my friend ordered the popular combination of bacon and ham with two eggs and home fries. Servers were very friendly and efficient; it's easy to see why so many customers know them by name. I trully recommend this place. read more

My folks winter here for over 6 yrs. when we visit it's goodys for breakfast everyday. My dad suddenly died a few years back. Goodys is the only restaurant that when we go brings me happy memories. My dad & I always had breakfast out for over 40 yrs but goodys truly was the best. I got lunch & he got corn beef hash. A restaurant is what u make of it. Service might b a bit slow but the food is as good as any NY diner. Thanks for the memories!!! read more

Well, not a whole lot to say about this place. I was in Indio and needed something to eat in morning with some friends. Food was hot, it tasted pretty average for this type of place - not bad, but not great either. They forgot about a friend's order, he went back and they said it was coming out. Turns out they were out of an ingredient, so they had to substitute it for something else. A solid 3 stars. read more

Large portions. Great price. Nice employees. I was told Good Morning twice on my walk to the restroom. The place is clean. The food is really good. I would recommend this place. We were driving through and didn't want a truck stop restaurant. This was a pleasant surprise. read more

After an older man slipping on jam and my seat and table being dirty I won't be back. Even after I ask them to clean it up for me so I can sit comfortable they still leave the big stain and only wipe where they believe I'm only gonna sit. (Booth) read more

Goody's Cafe - Cafes Near Me - Indio, California

Quick taking your order BUT waited an hour for our food for just the 4 of us & it was to go! Ridiculous! We ended up getting a refund & going somewhere else! Won't come back again to this greasy spoon! read more

A ton for food for what you pay. It's your typical deli/fast food place, but the quality is better than most.

This place gave my daughter food poisoning! She had a hamburger there and I don't know what the problem is but she has been so sick ever since! It's too bad because it's nice that they are open late with a drive-through and it's convenient but I can't believe how sick she got off of their hamburger meat I hope all their food isn't as bad I had a waffle what driver is a banana so I guess I played it safe but be careful with meat! read more

Penelope sums up Goody's well. My critique, however, is a knock on the huevos ranchero breakfast I recently ordered. Except for the eggs, the lukewarm refried beans with unmelted shredded cheese and the tomato sauce covering the eggs were of mediocre canned quality. And finally, rice mixed with peas, carrots & string beans????? Yuck!! read more

First I need to say thank you MARISELA, you are always nice, smiling,patient and get my order right every time. There is not one person there that is not nice, but somehow this poor always girl gets stuck with me. Thank you Marisela for making come almost everyday. I really appreciate and I hope management appreciates you too. read more

Chicken nachos were so good! Ordered them to pick up and got them at the drive thru no wait, good price will be back!

Great food!! The gyro and the chicken sandwich are so good. Of course, you have to try their fries dipped in ranch dressing. Mmmmmm!!!

Goody's is not very good food and horrible service. When you buy Mexican food in drive through they make you pay for the stale chips that you can get for free if you walk inside and pick up food. read more

Used to frequent Maxcy's until their demise. Tried out Goody's. Please with the cleanliness, large menu, parking and location. The food is reasonably priced and for most accounts GOOD! A few misses, but generally GOOD. I now frequent Goody's at lunchtime as I refuse to go to Andy's. Andy's is a pit! So, if you need a burger, sandwich or typical lunch fare, Goody's is a good choice. read more

Typically this is the selection when I want to walk the dogs for my own personal purpose - eating on the patio. Nothing is perfect but it is convenient with the BEST shaded patio. The prices are pretty high for the quality & quality but it has a huge assortment of options for everyone to select from. read more

Goody's is your comfort food palace with a kick. If you wake up with a huge hunger drive or a hangover, order the breakfast burrito. It will not dissapoint and will satisfy even the hungriest of people. The salsa they give to compliment it is incredible... I always have to get extra, which comes at no charge. For lunch, order the Goody's Pastrami...differnent than the reg. pastrami. This sandwich never dissapoints. For something on the healthy side, try one of the salads. Simple, yet fresh and delicious. I have enjoyed everything I have ordered from Goody's with the excpetion of a burger. I suggest to avoid their burgers. Otherwise, service is always great, fast and friendly. Nice place to sit down. Drive-thru also great...maybe a little lengthy in time, but worth the wait. read more

i loooove this place! Highly recommend it! Breakfast is delicious. & Their salads are freshh! Great Service ((:

Ok on their menu they have a dinner plate called fish and chips but unfortunately the chips aka fries does not come with, you have to add that to the meal plus the other options you get so make sure the options they provide the fries does not come with meal you need to ask for it, this place is way over price for something they take out of the freezer but unfortunately where i live my options are too little too choose from, yes i cook everyday but sometimes i need an off day and yet i spend my hard working money for shitty food and no english speaking. read more

Goody's is good at comfort food. Large menu, fair prices, plentiful portions. If you are looking for a diner or a "greasy spoon", this one is a good choice. read more

I hate to write a bad review but ......I think the one of the problems here is the menu is too big (to many items ) the portions were good but for me it was too greasy read more

I gotta say that this was one of the best diner restaurants I've been too. Found it by chance on the way to California and it will be a regular stop going forward. Food was awesome and the service was even better. If you want great comfort diner food this is the place to be in Indio, CA. read more
