GENERAL MANAGER CELIA IS AN ABSOLUTE WINNER ! Her team is awesome, warm, welcoming and kind. I met Celia today and told her that this McDonald's was/is the " Gold Standard" for the famous chain. I conveyed that this specific location was the VERY BEST McDonalds I have ever visited!! The employees are excellent and exemplary. All working together so hard to ensure that the customers have a positive experience. I actually had better service at the restaurant than some of the fancy restaurants on El Paseo--SERIOUSLY. Celia and her team are a fantastic reflection on the McDonalds Brand. Senior management should recognize and reward Celia and her team for setting-the-bar in service and customer satisfaction. I'd give Celia and her staff a10 STAR RATING if it were possible! I'm looking forward to coming back soon and this is the ONLY McDonalds I will be patronizing in the entire Coachella Valley. Please visit and you will see how this staff are #1. Celia, your Leadership is amazing and it's reflected by your team-- keep up the good work -- and please share this review with your wonderful team members. Best Michael P read more

McDonald's - Fast Food Near Me - Palm Desert, California

This Mc Donald's is located right off HYW 111. I used my app to purchase the app deal which is very similar to their current McDouble deal for $6. I also purchased kids meals at the front. Gentleman who rang me up was pleasant and courteous. They were very busy today. It is lunch time. They brought the food out very quickly. The deals are what brought us in. If it weren't for the deal I probably would've gone elsewhere. read more

Clean building and quick food pick up. Employees were welcoming even though I showed up last minute before closing time.

Food was okay....staff was not friendly... no smiles....we ordered on the kiosk.... When we picked up our lunch they didn't offer us anything.... Ketchup... salt... etc...or even a friendly smile..... The whole fountain drink machine was down.... No apologizes.... Parking out front is limited....no drive thru at this location... very busy during lunch hour.... read more

Me and my sister were waiting for almost an hour at the curbside and did not even get her a straw then they wanted to give us cold food and my sisters frap did not even have whipped cream. read more

Service was slow, bathroom was dirty,. But most importantly my spicy chicken wraps were HORRIBLE. One small glob of the spicy chees, lettuce wilted and very sparce. The chicken was on the verge of being burnt, was dry and unchewable and only about half the size of the flour tortilla wrap. . read more

The staff is what makes this restaurant such a pleasure to visit. The food is always fresh. The fries are crisp. I couldn't be any happier with my experience at McDonald's. The bathrooms are always clean and I've never been in there where they didn't have toilet paper. read more

Maecy was exceptional. Top flight service. Quite frankly, too beautiful to be working at McDonald's, but nonetheless I respect the grind. Plus, George keeps the the place spotless. A must go to McDonald's. Conrad read more

Whoever was working tonight needs a raise. We came at 10:30 PM. Food was fresh, very surprisingly for this time at now. Good customer service. read more

First time and I would mentioned that food took way longer 10-15 min but i understood that they had lots of customers inside (placed mobile order while waiting on table ) but my table was dirty but here's the positive point I will mentioned * employee was walking around checking trash can and cleaning tables and he looked at mine and approached and started cleaning I like that I didn't even had to mentioned that too him he just went and took care of it . * that huge line of costumer the cashier took care of them fast and efficient (Only 1 cashier was attending he kept his cool and kept on working). *Employee serving my food follow up by asking me if I needed anything which I replied a take out bag and they went and got me one . Lastly they were all greeting and saying good bye to the customer . 8-8:30am. July 31. Hopefully these employees get a raise and a shout out . read more

***No Drive-Thru at location*** No complaints from the kiddos but it did take a while but we were patient as they worked through the orders. Everything came out fine and no complaints from the kiddos but just took about 20 minutes for our to go (my other son reminded me when we returned to the car). read more

McDonald's - They forgot my cone then brought it out with a decorative hair. - Fast Food Near Me - Palm Desert, California

Came here for lunch on Christmas Day and took it to-go. Once I arrived home I found that they forgot the burger in my combo. All I got was fries and a drink in the end and I do not have the time to drive all the way back there to get it. They are unable to refund me or do anything about it unless I drive all the way back to the store. Terrible service, terrible problem solving but thank god they got a raise to $20/hr.... read more

I ordered a sweetened iced tea and when I went to take a drink of my tea and it was unsweetened. I then took it back and asked them for a sweetened tea because mine was unsweetened. The woman working the counter was very nice and had went to go get me a new one. She handed me my drink and I thanked her. Once I got back to my car I took a sip and it was unsweetened again. read more

No drive through. Took forever for 1 cone. Kids playground is OK. Weird people dining here.

Shout out to Maria at the register. She is so cheerful and enthusiastic when dealing with all the customers!

Without french fries and cheese sauce, it's just not the same as before. Only warm memories remain from delicious McDonald's.

Thank you Meysi for all your kindness and patience. She was lovely with my group and all the other guests too. Thanks again for making our day. read more

The food was well, classic McDonald's food which is to be expected. The service was nothing top tier but it was still good. The interior had a nice slightly contemporary look. It was also very clean. Bonus points: the cashiers are extremely kind and genuine. read more

Dreadful!!! I prefer using the app to prevent mistakes and even that doesn't work at this location. Epic fast food fail! But does anyone really care? I arrived, parked in space 1, placed online order; after waiting a very long time, I called to enquire about my order; I was told she was busy and understaffed (As if somehow this is my problem). . She said it would be out shortly. Another five minutes later, our food arrived, I was given a diet drink even though the app order indicated otherwise. The Oatmeal had no cream, even though the app indicated otherwise. The ice in our drinks seemed melted, as if the drinks were made a long time previously. The BIG Breakfast came with ONE, as in ONE pad of butter. One tiny butter for three COLD pancakes and two English muffins. Who here is dim witted enough to think a tiny single butter is sufficient? I'm done! Too stupid! For crying out loud fix your service or close your doors. The citizens and tourists of the desert deserve better; wouldn't you agree? read more

Slow service, even when I ordered ahead using the app. It was just two hash browns, one sausage biscuit, and one egg McMuffin. I waited over 15 minutes when I got to the restaurant. Unacceptable. read more

This location has always had diffi ha decent employees. Just now, this stupid lazy 20 year old dragging his feet with a piss-ass attitude calling out finished orders barely in a whisper. This is what we get for 16 an hour?? My $4 chocolate shake was white and had zero flavor. "Can you add chocolate syrup"? "uhhhhhh......no". probably because this fatass drank it all! read more

The worst! Takes 1/2 hour to get food. Never ever go here. Slowest service ever. While you broil in your car. Worst of the worst.

Slow, apathetic, and they don't mix the shakes and coffee so you get a syrupy sludge at the bottom

I tried that new Fried Chicken Sandwich with a pickle and some shit sauce. How stupid can Mcdonald's be to think it is any good. I offered it to my dog and he wouldn't touch it. It was not just not tasty, it was horrific. I tossed it out the window onto Highway 111. read more

I am employ at McDonald's. My name is Rachel I love my customers. Love my regulars. And even the new comers. I am Very detailed with your orders to make sure your severance is perfection to the tee.

I Been Coming to this Location for almost a year and I was gonna STOP! Coming to this Location because of it just NEVER seem to be Clean and the staff is always lost...The day I was gonna call it Quits it was a New guy working there and He went Above and beyond Changing My Mind.His work ethics stood out I Noticed the Place Had been Cleaned. Since then I've been back a few more times and the place still look on point. I now know the Guys Name (Thanks Mr.Davis) keep Up the Place..Real Help is Hard to Find these days. read more

Sometimes I order food from this McDonald's when I need something quick and cheap to eat. But I never received my orders as it should be. Each time there is missed or wrong items. And even if the order itself came as ordered they will definitely forget to put napkins and straws for drinks ... It seems sleepy idi0ts work in this McDonald's. read more

There were egg shells in every bite of my egg McMuffin. So disgusting. Now I have egg shells stuck in my teeth.

If your white or person of color don't come to this McDonald's. They will treat you like shit. It's truly sad. There so slow. And there order was wrong. Rude like Walmart workers. This place needs to either retrain or rehire. They hold long conversations in Spanish about you read more

Worst McDonalds I've been to in McCali. I don't think there's a McDrive-thru.. Anyways, inside it appears to be clean but there's a mcfunky smell its rather odd.. the guys behind the counter are the opposite of mcfriendly, they seem as if they're counting down their days in their mcprison. So i ordered a large mcdrink hoping to fulfill the undeniable craving of mcbubbly syrup infused, caramel colored water.. unfortunately, turns out their syrup level is low in their mcCoke. tastes like flat old coke left out for a few days. I mention it to one of the fellas wandering around, he says he'll check. he grabs a cup, comes back to try it, says it tastes ok. he grabs another mcfella to try it, he says its 'acceptable'. i asked him "acceptable?" he says, YEP. mcwow, i'm not loving it. read more

The ladies during lunch time don't know what the hell they were doing. Shorter Hispanic lady threw out my mocha 2 times and made me wait 20 min just for a mocha frap! Didn't even give me the correct size I order so there goes money down the drain. Horrible. Never again. read more

One word DUMP. Went for fish Friday and someone stole our order while we were standing there. It happens. BUT don't get MAD at me me. Lead didn't check any receipts. Not my fault you don't know how to do your job and have to remake my order. Do yourself a favor, go to the one in North Palm Desert. At least you won't have to deal with someone stealing your food from the drive-thru. read more

Fairly quick like McDonalds is known for, but no regard for customer service. I visited today and after receiving no greeting at all from the cashier, he promptly took my order and then completely left the station in the middle of my payment processing. The individual then started undressing and appeared to get ready to go on break without a word towards me or the intent to finish my order. Shortly after my previous exchange the manager noticed me standing at the counter with a receipt and ignored me until I interjected. read more

Went for lunch at this location, about a week ago. Ordered the Double Cheeseburger. 1) It was COLD and 2) the Two burgers??? We're incredibly THIN!!! And DRY!! As the place was very busy, I just had the order re-done. Yes the second Burger was warm. BUT the burgers Are Small and look like the Substitute meat! Final Note: I saw three Customers leave their tables, and NO CLEANING was being done!! read more

Guess what's wrong lmao and this is normal , didn't seem like they cared at all .and the restroom was never available. read more

Guy who was the cashier was this 18 year old with a weak mustache and weird stance didn't even say hello, who thought it was a good idea to put someone with zero people skills in the front? The guy handing out food was also a young kid who had a t shirt on that looked like it hadn't been washed in 2 years, homeless outside had cleaner clothes. Thisbplace was a dump, I think its time to let go of McDonald's all together especially when you see qho is preparing and handling your food and who is taking your money. read more
