    Outstanding, little engine that could produce a fantastic tasty meal. I am happy. Nice people nice place. Love this place. The shakes, delicious and satisfying. Food made and prepared by people who care.

    This was the #9. Pancho Villa Burger. Super good!!

    This place was great! I was craving a good burger I chose to try this place. I didn't get a good burger, I got a GREAT Burget!!! Atmosphere was fun, service was great.. l.. people were friendly and it was much more than a drive thru burger. This is a win for me. Clean and neat and had patio seating for those nice days

    50/50: fries and onion rings

    greta garbo: turkey burger in lettuce with tomatoes, onion, pickles - delicious, burger was moist, veggies were fresh #20 au poivre: dijon mustard, crushed peppercorns, swiss cheese, bacon - delicious combination and well executed, would be improved by less bready bun, top removed and much better but messy 50/50: fries & onion rings - huge serving, onion rings were addictive, fries were a little soggy though flavorful Service was friendly and attentive. Ambiance is funky, fun - not sure exactly how to describe but a little TIKI but with gorillas? A solid choice and very popular while we were there. Hankering for a burger? It's a good choice.

    Breakfast dog was great! Hollywood burger was fun! Brain freeze root beer had metal containers as a plus! Fries and onion rings half and half!

    CS is excellent, love the ambiance, Hawaiian Decor inside is interesting. Burgers are BIG, but you can order Mini Burgers and half order of their fries. Their fries are cut fresh daily, taste is phenomenal. The Burgers are SUPERB, done to perfection, the Buns taste like homemade that day, all condiments are fresh and tasty. Only suggestion I have is on the Garlic Fries don't used minced out of a jar. We will be back!

    Back again-- this time for a Patty Melt and " Frings". Great burgers and fun ambience. Highly recommend

    Found this gem via Guy Fieri and could not stop smiling once we entered! This tiki-decorated burger joint has got massive aura. Also the burger names kept making me laugh - they remind me of Bob's Burgers! I ordered the #11 Great Eggspectations. I am not exaggerating when I say that I think this is the best. burger. I've. ever. had. I don't even like hamburgers or any type of sandwich but I SCARFED this big boy down in 5 minutes. The patty is so well-seasoned, JUIIICY, and cooked to a perfect meat temp. The chili cheese fries were traditional tasting and the perfect compliment to this meal - recommend! Give this spot a try! So glad to have found it on my last night in greater Palm Springs!

    Everything about this place was great. The vibe, the cleanliness, the staff and food. My friends and I got the OMG Burger. And OMG is it good! It had a thick beef patty, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, a huge onion ring and a special mayo. One burger is big enough to share. We also got Parmeasan Fries and the best ever Cookies and Cream hand made milk shakes. It was once on that Diners, Drive-in and Dives show. I can see why. Such good food.

    If you're in the mood for a burger and fries, look no further. So many delicious combinations, it's hard to choose. And they will sub any burger for a well-made impossible burger (for two-fifty). They also have a gluten-free bun and several other bun and bread options. I had the Hollywood Brown Durby minus bacon and loved it. Others tried the Pancho Villa and the Hawaiian and the Patty melt and ate every bite. The fries are plentiful and we had tons left over. The avocado fries were also yummy. Really. You can't go wrong. But, it adds up price wise.

Given the weather, we decided to still give it a shot since this location was on our must try list. We were greeted immediately by friendly staff who offered us to seat anywhere we'd like. Cold beer on summer special ($5-$6) fixed my partner back up for a moment until we felt the AC kick back on. lol. We had the Bistro Burger with Truffle Fries and the Oinker with Tater Tots. I was excited to try the Oinker after seeing they had fresh pork belly posted on their instagram that day. The Bistro was DELICIOUS! Unfortunately, I wasn't a huge fan of the Oinker after trying my partner's Bistro burger. The combination of ingredients felt dry, the burger wasn't as hot, and I realized there was no cheese in this either. What's a burger without cheese? :( I wish the server forewarned me! Maybe a grilled onion would also be better suited? I also asked for a side of their lemon aioli for my fries, and ended up adding this to my burger to add some extra sauce. The tater tots and fries were perfectly crisp. And I usually don't finish my fries, but we ate every last bite of these plates. Overall, great! I would return to try more of their various burger offerings.

Yes worth a visit if you want a burger and you're on El Paseo, but I will not go back only for my own reasons, I am sure others love the food here. LOCATION: Incredibly nice location on El Paseo, usually good parking and the place is easy to find but also you can spend the afternoon shopping maxing out the credit cards on El Paseo. FACILITY: Very nice model, bright, and not noisy. I am usually not a fan of ordering kiosks but at this location, the Shake Shake logic on this was the best I have seen. So well thought out. MENU: There is a lot, easy to read and see photos on the kiosk and the delivered food kind of looks like the photos. FOOD PREP: Not great. Burgers dropped in and stuck in a wrapper bag, did not look great, and not easy to eat but we made it with a ton of napkins. FOOD QUALITY: Ok, we had a burger and a chicken burger but I just don't enjoy the tase of their food. I reviewed another location a few years ago and had a bad experience, this visit was much better just based on the location, same taste takeaway. WAITSTAFF: AMAZING, wow very professional which is not a word I use often in fast food reviews. In N Out is professional and that is about it, so well done so much have a great manager. OVERALL VALUE: $27.00 with tip for a single burger and a chicken burger and a soda. If that is chump change for you then fine. I get the location is ridiculously expensive as are quality California employees, so yes food here cost a bit more and maybe standard pricing I don't know. We visited, I ordered, I paid, and we ate all was good. TIP: I am not here to bash Shake Shack, this was an amazing location and very well managed on my visit. Don't let the prices scare you off this location is worth a visit.

    Dinner for two at Heydey in downtown Palm Springs…read more It was our first time there and we had an excellent experience. Heydey is a casual (shorts and t-shirts seemed too be the preferred attire) retro diner mixed with a cocktail lounge featuring dark red booths, stained-glass lampshades, and an outdoor patio. The restaurant is small with limited seating and does not do reservations but we had no trouble being seated immediately on a Wednesday evening at around 6. Our super friendly and charming server was Cesar who greeted us with the biggest smile which he maintained throughout our visit - it makes a dining out experience all-the-more enjoyable to have someone like Cesar taking care of you. We both ordered the "Martini and Burger" special which featured a single smash burger described on the menu as "Fresh beef blend, American cheese, caramelized onions, shredded lettuce, house made 1,000, on a griddled potato bun." The special was $20.75 each. While the burger was delicious, we felt it was on the small side and could have been larger. The martinis were standard size and on the strong side. The burger does not come with anything at all so we ordered a regular order of fries to share ($7.75) and the order size was more than enough for two of us. While best known for their signature smash burgers, HeyDey also offers cheeseburgers, vegan burger options, crispy fries, chicken sandwiches, wings, and house-made sauces. Bar is limited to beer, wine and martinis. Bottom line: small, friendly, casual downtown Palm Springs eatery known for its smash burgers and martinis. Service was excellent. Other than for disappointment in the small size of the burgers and the fact that any sides were a la carte - we will be back to try other items on the menu - hoping to get Cesar as our server ;-)

But after a long day of shopping and driving, this islands is usually our go to for our first day of vacation and was the only thing we could agree on to eat. Despite coming in an hour before closing, we were treated with so much respect and kindness. No cold shoulders, no dirty looks or anybody making it seem like we were inconveniencing them, even though we were. Our server, Daniel was SO kind, attentive, and just over all amazing. One of the best servers we've ever had. He made it a point to let us know we were no trouble at all, and had an overall positive attitude that made us feel so welcome and comfortable. Our food came out very fast and was hot and delicious. Daniel made sure to refill our drinks, had no trouble getting some containers to go, and didn't rush us to pay by bringing the check early, he waited until we asked for it to bring it. We made it out just after closing, I believe closer to 9:10, and although our consciouses felt guilty, none of the staff made us feel this way. Establishment was clean, staff was doing side work, but that's normal for a restaurant almost closing. I was so pleased with this experience. We won't be going In an hour before closing again, but thank you to this islands and most of all, Daniel, for making us feel welcome.
