    Had a business/pleasure meeting so we decided to meet over Chinese. The person I was meeting…read moresuggested we try JOY Asian Cuisine, the menu looked good so I was game. The restaurant is hard to find in the huge building and we ultimately had to ask directions but that's a minor detail. And if we had come through an entrance closer to the actual restaurant that might have been different. One thing that gave me pause is you can smell cigarette smoke going through the main casino building but thankfully the restaurant air was fresh with no detectable smoke odor. I suspect a positive air-flow system which is good. The restaurant interior is roomy, clean and pleasant with Oriental style decor which is nice. The staff were warm and inviting right from the person that greeted us at the entrance, throughout our meal and just as gracious upon our exit. We were there during the lunch menu which of course is limited but plenty of appealing choices. I ordered Twice cooked pork which though I have made myself I don't recall ever ordering it in a restaurant. My dish was very tasty with plenty of tender pork slices and filling enough I didn't want dessert. My lunch partner had Kung Pao chicken which looked good though I didn't taste, but he thought underwhelming, bland and average at best. If only going by my experience I would have given 5 stars but I have to take into consideration the opinion of my lunch partner for the benefit of anyone reading this review. I would eat there again but not likely anytime soon as it is an unnecessarily long drive when there are plenty of Asian restaurants that I like within my local area. Good but not 60 mile round-trip good.

Being completely ignored. After 15 minutes, we got our orders taken another 10 to 12 minutes. No drinks... we flagged one of the workers down. She brought us our drinks. Then two different servers brought us our food. Which was wrong. They were very nice. Terrible service but excellent food.

    The "Fastest Sister" in the Desert…read more Listen, I don't know what kind of temporal magic they're practicing at this Flame Broiler, but I'm pretty sure they start cooking your bowl before you even realize you're hungry. I've had "instant" noodles that took longer than the 5 minutes it takes to get my food here. It's the ultimate win for anyone who is perpetually hangry. The "Sister" Vibes The secret sauce isn't just in the bottle--it's Veronica. Walking in doesn't feel like walking into a franchise; it feels like walking into your sister's house for lunch. The customer service is so warm and genuine that I half expect her to ask me why I haven't called our mom lately. Whether you're calling it in or strolling through the door, the service is consistently top-tier. Cleanliness is Next to... This Place I've been in "fine dining" establishments that aren't as tidy as this spot. The dining area and restrooms are immaculate. You could practically eat your chicken bowl off the floor (though I'd recommend using a table, because they have plenty of those, and they're actually clean). The Perks (Not an Ad, Just a Fan) Pro-tip: Sign up for the rewards program. I am not sponsored (Flame Broiler, call me?), but the little freebies and goodies you rack up are a total game-changer. Since you're going to be eating here three times a week anyway, you might as well let the perks pile up. It's basically like getting paid in deliciousness to do something you were already going to do. The Verdict: If you want amazing food, lightning-fast speed, and a vibe that makes you feel like family, this is the Indio go-to. Can't go wrong with the Flame Broiler. 10/10, would bowl again.

    I am absolutely amazed by this place! on top of the food…read morebeing so darn good. It feels so comfortably clean to eat there all thanks to one of the workers by the name of Alicia. She just had the most amazing attitude from the moment we got there with great customer service she knew exactly how to help us on Deciding what to eat since it was my boyfriend's and I first time being there. She made this experience very pleasant even though it was an hour before they closed she never let that get in the way of her serving her customers with a positive attitude. Thank you Alicia for keeping this place so nicely organized and clean.

We ordered the ginger fish, cubed garlic steak, orange chicken, yellow panang chicken curry, spring rolls with tofu, fried rice, and spicy tofu eggplant. We were amazed how everything came out perfectly cooked and seasoned. All of our party really enjoyed the dinner and i was so elated. Orn, the owner helped with our menu planning and was so accommodating. She allowed my wife to set up bday banners and decorations beforehand pretty early while they were still open for customers. Their service was top notch and always made sure our drinks and food were timely. I met her in the back afterwards and can tell she cooked with pride and love. If you are ever in the la Quinta area and have a craving for authentic, savory and delicious food go there!

The pad Thai with tofu and vegetables had decent taste as well as the papaya salad but the shrimp unfortunately was on my mind the entire time we were eating especially since all the shrimp was cut in half. They do have their takeout processes figured out with dividing the hot and cold dishes into different bags.
