When we moved to the Coachella Valley in 2022, we tried looking for good BBQ and were really…read moredisappointed by the local offerings. We tried about every place we could find. That search finally ended when we found Smokey Lips BBQ. Chef Adam makes the best BBQ this side of Kansas City - seriously. His food is always excellent and made with great care. Last year for Thanksgiving we ordered his smoked turkey, and we have vowed never to spend a Thanksgiving without one if we can. The only complaint I have about Smokey Lips BBQ is that I can't get it whenever we want it, which isn't really a complaint, but a compliment! But in this era, it's a nice reminder that good things take time, and some gems are meant to be savored whenever you have the chance. I hate social media, but I go on Instagram specifically to find out where and when Chef Adam will be offering his amazing food. Follow Smokey Lips there. You won't be disappointed!!

The coleslaw was tasty, really liked the apples in it. The beans were under seasoned. The cornbread was good, a little dense, but tasted good. The service was good. Friendly staff and the food came out fast. The ambiance was ok. More like a sports bar than a restaurant.

*Uncle D & Auntie V are Legit*…read more I take my BBQ & Brisket very seriously...and I'm thrilled Uncle D does too. So happy to stumble upon this lovely lively couple serving up their incredible BBQ food at the Palm Springs Art Museum commemorating & celebrating Juneteenth. Uncle D & Auntie V were so sweet & kind, they take their craft very seriously, and appreciate their customers. I had one of the BEST BBQ Brisket Sandwich's ever. And I've eaten & sampled my fair share. When I expressed I'm from LA and would drive all the way to Compton for the OG Bludso's BBQ & Brisket and Ribs with my BF, Auntie V's face lit up and says "I know it very well...and Darly is from Compton." When I told Uncle D, he expressed he knows Kevin Bludso personally...so I already knew I was in for a major brisket treat. After devouring my Sando in record time -- though I slowed down towards the end -- because I did not want it to end. I told my wife "I could eat 2 more of these." And speaking of which -- wifey's not too keen on BBQ like her hubby but can appreciate a great piece of quality meat. She took one bite (right smack in the middle -- which I suggested because it's the best bite :) and her response? "Oh my god...I could eat one of these." I've never heard her say that about BBQ Brisket. What makes Uncle D's Brisket so special? It's smoked & cooked overnight in a smoke-pit ~~ seasoned to perfection ~~ not fatty nor salty one bit...and don't get me started on the BBQ sauce that's not too thick & not too thin ~~ not too sweet & not too tangy ~~ it's simply perfection. And the bun too. This sandwich is so good you don't even need TEETH to enjoy because the mEAT is so soft & tender ~~ as perfect brisket should be. Following brisket consumption I went back to share my thoughts with D & V and when I said "not only is this one of the best I've ever had, it's better than Bludso's." D Looked me right in the eyes and softly said "really...seriously?" "Yes indeed" I said and he thanked me again. Then I told him "this section should be labeled: "The Art of Brisket" and D smiled at me so wide I can still see his happy face. Then we fist-bumped because he was wearing gloves but that Sando was so frickin' great I wanted to hug that cool bearded BBQ Master. Wifey had some of their Mac & Cheese and thought the noodles were cooked perfectly, it wasn't too cheesy & oily...and loved that it wasn't too salty. I took a bite and 2nd her notion. Checkout their website to find out where they'll be throughout the Coachella Valley. And make sure to confirm the location because their days & hours change during Summertime. Can't wait to find this hidden gem again...and next time I'm going to try their pulled pork and spare ribs too. And another Brisket sando or two :) {{{Big High Fives}}} {{{Fist-Bump & Hugs}}} Grandslam Huge Fan

The meat was fall-apart tender and packed with flavor... easily some of the best BBQ I've ever had. The new space feels more modern than the original, but I loved that they kept the iconic pig details--it still feels like Babes, just refreshed. Service was also top-notch and made the whole experience even better. We'll definitely be back for more.

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!!!

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.

For drinks, I ordered the Tipsy Pig Old Fashioned, made with bacon-infused WhistlePig 10-year rye, bitters, and barrel-aged maple syrup. It was really good and a great match for the food. For our meals, I had the Bacon Jalapeño Jam Burger with spicy charred Fresno chile, bacon-infused jalapeño jam, smoked mozzarella, and whiskey caramelized onions. It was one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. My mom ordered the Eureka! American with American and Swiss cheese, grilled red onion, lettuce, house pickles, tomato, special sauce, and barbecue bacon, and she really enjoyed it as well. Everything was cooked well, full of flavor, and definitely stood out compared to a lot of other places. It was good enough that we made a point to come back again during the same trip. If you're in the area and in the mood for a solid burger, this is a great spot to check out.

She's incredibly attentive, friendly, and even remembers our usual order every time we come in. That said, the experience can be very inconsistent depending on the staff. When we don't have Katie or Alan, the service tends to fall short. Unfortunately, the other day was the worst we've experienced. Our server seemed disengaged, even rolling her eyes when we finally flagged her down to order more food. After placing the order, it was never entered, and we ended up waiting about 20 minutes with nothing on our grill. We'll definitely keep coming back because we love the place, but I really wish the level of service was more consistent across the entire team, more like what we get with Katie and Alan.

But at least they added more water to their long-grain rice do it's not very typical. Otherwise, I would have hated it, having the rice dancing all over my mouth...where the sticky ones doesn't. The boneless marinated beef chuck was great! The one that come in cubes. I recommend "B" option to include more savory meats such as Gal-bee and some other premium steak for another $5 or so per person. I enjoyed the spicy tofu soup, which I had it several times for the comfort. Their miso soup was good, also. Their Kimchi wa bit sour, bur I asked for me! Plus the hostess asked me if I wanted an ice cream. That I appreciated the gesture without having to ask...
