I don't know how they do it but darn they get it right every time. The sandwich's are fantastic! I always get the OG Pastrami and Turkey and they always hit the spot. I want to eat their dessert but always get too full from the sandwiches to try it. If you are ever in the area, must try sandwich shop. The accolades in the back with their story is pretty sweet. Also the service and ambiance is excellent as well. Of course the cost is a bit much but what isn't expensive these days! read more

I had seen all the Yelp reviews of this spot, including being ranked #1 in the NATION a few years back. I decided to stop on my way home from LA, and get some lunch. Honestly, wish I hadn't................ I got in line, not too busy, maybe 8 people in front of me. I ordered the Sexy Italian, minus olives and mayo. That, and a bag of chips was $23.00. Good lord! Better be good, right? How was it, you ask? Shitty! First of all, I took a seat in the room with the huge table behind the drinks. There was shit all over the table...napkins, crumbs, mustard stains etc. Wipe that shit down, man, seriously! Anyways.....I got my sandwich fairly quick. First thing I noticed was that it looked straight up like Kirkland/Costco ham on the sandwich. Nothing wrong with Kirkland ham, I buy it and eat it all the time, but for an Italian sandwich that costs $18 by itself, step up the meat game, man! The salami was cut pretty thick too and had a very overpowering smoke flavor. It was too saucy with the pesto and mustard and hard to eat. The kicker was the bread. It was a "parmesan roll", but it looked and tasted almost underbaked. It was really thin too! Subways Italian herb and cheese bread is way better, honestly. I bit in and was immediately disappointed. The quality of meat was bad, the bread was crappy, the produce was skimp, plus it was messy as a mofo. I ate half of the sandwich, and tried to take another bite of the second half, and I couldn't do it. Threw it away. Waste of $23.00. At least the Salt and Vinegar chips I picked out were good, lol! Definite one and done for me. Not sure how they have almost 5000 mostly positive reviews. Maybe people in Indio have different taste buds? Who knows. I shall not return. Meh. read more

Solid sandwich shop to stop by while on the way to coachella! It doesn't look like much on the outside but there's plenty of parking and seating inside. Ordered the Trump Card (not fan of the name) but it's their most popular and I now understand why. While ordering, the cashier asked if I would like to split the sandwich and I said yes to split with my friend and it came out on two separate plate trays. The sandwich had turkey, salami, bacon, pepper jack cheese, and avocado with jalapeño focaccia bread. They also added a sliced picked and jalapeño chips on the side to each portion. Event split in half, the portion was pretty big but I'm glad it was bc the cost of the sandwich is $18 so it better have been able to feed two people lol The sandwich was really good and flavorful, can get messy towards the end. Overall it was very fulfilling and did the job for me. I'll def be back if I'm in the area again. read more

When you're in Indio / Palm Springs, you have to visit TKB. This was my second time here. Service and Staff: - Order at the counter and take a number. A staff member will bring your food to you - Both times I've been here have been during the lunch hour, so there's always a long line. Food: - Chicken Chipotle: flavorful, very filling, and was enough for two meals for me - Salad: they have one kind of salad. We added chicken and it was good Miscellaneous: - Don't forget to check out the bakery area for some very rich and large desserts - Indoor and outdoor seating available - There are tables for large groups and smaller groups - Definitely not a place to come if you're in a rush since it's popular and crowded - Lots of parking available read more

Headed out to Indio, this is a must stop for good eats! The building is inconspicuous but look for the TKB logo into what looks like an office building but is the best sandwich deli and bakery in the desert and quite arguably the States. The space is bright and has good vibes throughout. It's hard to walk by the bakery counter first on your way to the deli line, everything looks so amazing! The deli line moves fast, they're quite efficient and friendly at the register. Most ordered sandwich is the Trump Card, but today I opted for the Mexican Marilyn Monroe on jalapeño focaccia (you have your choice between jalapeño focaccia or cranberry focaccia). The sandwich is unique with its freshly made chicken salad topped with bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato and a chipotle aioli. Pure perfection though it can get a bit messy (get extra napkins). Served with fresh dill pickle slice. I shared my sandwich with my BFF who shared her Trump Card, pretty tasty too! And we had fried pickles (really goo The team are seem happy to be there, smiling over the counter as they make sandwiches. I'd be happy and proud of myself if I was cranking out the best sandwiches around! We didn't leave without stopping by the bakery "Athena's" to pick up some cannolis, Dubai Chocolate Pastry, a peanut Butter Brownie Mousse and a Keylime Mousse. We took them to go (absolutely no stomach real-estate after the sandwiches). All were good but rich peanut butter brownie mousse stood out as our favorite!!! I do wish the bakery sold the jalapeño focaccia, I would have loved to have taken some home! I'll be back, often. read more

"I'll have a Hangover, please". Seriously! Who says that? YOU DO... when you order one of the phenomenal sandwiches, TKB creates! From the fresh ingredients, generous servings of meat and veggies, to the tasty jalapeño croissant bread, and many options for drinks (my fave: flavored tea with no added sugar). We were 20 miles from home and it was lunchtime.... I thought we'd ask about lunch from an Indio resident...." That sandwich shop right there is pretty good" . Pretty good is an understatement. This shop is built to handle Coachella and Stagecoach, although it's clear this is a favorite place for locals . Lots of room, lots of natural light, plenty of seating indoors and out. TKB is clean, friendly and has tasty, unique sandwiches ! TKB is a place we would drive 20 miles out of our way to eat again. We saved 1/2 our enormous sandwich for dinner. read more

This is a great place for quality food. How ever their policy of adding a service charge of 5% to all purchases is a deal breaker. We won't be back. You would be better served just adding the 5% to your menu then you wouldn't piss people off. read more

You can't miss the billboards for this place if you are on the 10 traveling anywhere near Indio or Palm Springs. Very clean inside with a light bright atmosphere. Service is fast and friendly. Tried the original smash burger with their chipotle sauce.. it was really good.. French fries are crispy old school type and I say yes order some. Their drink station has a nice variety of teas, soda pop and lots of ice. Parking is plentiful and just a short walk to the front door. Took a star off for bringing a political name into the menu.. never good business to alienate half of a population but it's freedom of choice. read more

It was hard to rate this place! It's obviously a popular place with patrons constantly going in. I was traveling from Arizona to Northern California and needed a bite to eat. Pictures on Yelp of the Reuben sandwiches looked appealing; so that's what I went for, even though the pastrami sandwich looked good too. The sandwich looked good and I couldn't wait for my first bite. I decided to eat outside the car and I'm glad I did. I took my first bite and juices started dripping onto the ground. I tasted a lot of the sauerkraut and little of the pastrami. Everything else drowned out the pastrami. I opened the sandwich and there wasn't really a lot of pastrami. Looking at the sandwich from the front gave the illusion there was a lot of meat, but in reality very little meat. I was really disappointed. Not only was there very little meat, but I didn't think the quality was there either, not at that price point anyways. I've been to other deli's (cheaper) that had better quality meat that had tons of flavor. Oh well! At least I had fuel to continue my trip! read more

Tried out TKB this weekend and I just came to a conclusion I'm not really a sandwich girly :/ My boyfriend ordered the trump card and I ordered the onion dip and I felt like the sandwich was very underwhelming.

So we had heard about TKB from a snowbird standing with us at the protest in Indio a few weeks ago she comes all the way out here to spend the winter from a very cold place and she loves to go to TKB often because everything is so delicious. Today we had a chance to go out for lunch and we found this beautiful building which is just as great outside where they have seating and benches and a garden as it is inside. The staff were just incredibly helpful with information because we had a lot of questions. It was a little hard to read the menu from a distance, but they do have one laminated menu at the front desk, where you order that you can look at while you're checking out the food. Everything looks so delicious. I thought it would be difficult to choose, but I settled on a buffalo chicken sandwich. It has onions, tomatoes, chicken, provolone, lettuce, and the most delicious ciabatta fresh with a generous serving of jalapeños baked into it. This is probably one of the best sandwiches I've ever had in my life and I'm 76 years old. My husband ordered the pastrami sandwich and he really enjoyed it. He also liked his bread. We picked up some brownies at the counter where you ordered because we did not get tempted to go to the bakery counter as we would have filled up the car for sure. I'm sure every single meal here is just amazing. They have been here a long time and they obviously have perfected the art of wonderful customer service. We plan to come back for breakfast, the bakery counter, coffee, and more of those outstanding sandwiches. Sorry, there are no photographs because we ate them pretty quickly and brought half of them home for later on as they are so generous. My husband uses a wheelchair to get around if he's a little bit tired because he had had a stroke. This place is very easy to enter. There are ramps in the parking lot and the doorways are super wide and everything is on one level. Kudos for making this an easy place to stop and enjoy great food. read more

I've been coming to this place for years. It's about time I leave a review. Homemade bread... what else could you ask for. My go to is the Buffalo soldier, an absolutely fantastic sandwich. I drive 100+ miles for a clinic down the street for work occasionally and coming here is the highlight of the day. They recently increased the thickness of the bacon in the sandwich... freaking epic! As if this sandwich could get any better. Keep rockin' TKB! read more

I get that it's a bang for your buck, but seriously -- who needs a sandwich that huge? These sandwiches are on a whole different level and really speak volumes when it comes to quality. The fresh-baked goods are amazing... I could happily take one of everything! I can't remember the exact sandwich I ordered, but I do remember it being delicious and massive -- I couldn't even finish it. The cashier was super friendly and helped me decide what to get. I ordered mine to go and, of course, snapped a photo the second I picked it up. This spot stays busy, and you can feel the pride of a family-owned and operated business. Overall, a great experience and definitely worth a visit! read more

The Gobbler: 3.5/5 It was decent. The best Thanksgiving sandwich I ever had? Not really but tasted a lot better than eating week old leftovers. I thought all of the right pieces were there but wanted the ham to be thinner and maybe less present in the sandwich. While it did scratch the itch of having this kind of sandwich, it was just good. I found the bread and the experience itself to be very forgettable. Cheese Curds: 5/5 These were a sleeper hit. I was really not expecting much at all but they knocked it out of the ballpark with these curds. Salty, chewy, and perfectly crisp. I don't even care that they felt like something you get from a Sysco stockiest, they were very very good. Potato Salad: 3.5/5 My two biggest attractions to this side were the cilantro and the absence of celery. I was hoping for something very flavorful but it ended up being a potato salad with some green onions (if you don't like green onions you might want to avoid because there are some substantial chunks of it in here). No cilantro to be found. The potatoes were well cooked and it didn't taste bad, but again, I wanted something a little different. Tiramisu: 1.5/5 Dry, cool whip, meh. I would avoid it next time. Ambiance: Casual cafeteria vibes. Come with your kid's soccer team. Service: I went about an hour before closing. The employees weren't very attentive or engaging, but food came out fast and hot. Parking: A big, dedicated parking lot. Easy. read more

This deli is AMAZING!!! Their food is very good and the service is top notch. We ordered the Trump Card and their Chipotle Chicken sandwiches and they were delicious!! They stack them up with so much that sharing is almost a must. We also ordered a chocolate molten cake, a slice of chocolate cake and baklava for a friend. The chocolate cakes were very good and and the baklava was one of the best he's ever had. We don't visit often but it's definitely worth the visit if in close proximity. Highly recommend. read more

If sandwiches were crimes, this would be first-degree culinary manslaughter. I didn't just leave hungry, I left angry -- and that's harder to digest than the food. Let me be very clear: if I could give this place negative stars, I would. This isn't just a bad sandwich shop -- this is Yelp's version of a Ponzi scheme, propped up by outdated hype from 2018 (back when avocado toast was still considered edgy and the Obama Administration was a fresh memory). The world has moved on. TKB hasn't. The ambiance? Think less "award-winning deli" and more county jail cafeteria on visiting day. You don't walk in and feel welcomed -- you walk in and feel processed. The layout looks like a prison line: stainless steel counters, harsh lighting, and a shuffle of customers herded along like inmates waiting for their daily slop. First, they took my order wrong. Strike one. Then they forgot my chocolate chip cookie -- the only reason I put up with a deli in the desert heat in the first place. Strike two. The servers acted like they were doing me a favor by even existing, dripping attitude instead of customer service. Strike three. Then the showstopper: my father -- a 6'5", 270-pound elderly disabled man who has sat in more chairs than I've had bad meals -- broke their chair. Not because of him, but because the furniture here is clearly held together by expired mayo and false Yelp reviews. The photos say it all. Chairs at a restaurant should support diners, not audition for a lawsuit. The Food (if you can call it that): The sandwiches? Below gas station fare. I've had fresher, better-balanced sandwiches in the shadow of a Chevron bathroom. At least at a gas station, you know what you're getting. Here, they sell you mediocrity with a side of arrogance. We complained. The owner apologized -- which was nice -- but here's the thing: an apology doesn't fix a chair, a wrong order, missing food, or insult sandwiches. A refund would have been the bare minimum. Instead, we were left chewing on regret. This place isn't a bakery, it's a crime scene with bread. Yelp's "best" in 2018? Yeah, so were fidget spinners. The chairs collapse faster than the quality of the sandwiches. TKB is living proof that hype ages like milk. The food was trash, the service worse, and the furniture dangerous. My father almost died, I didn't finish my food, and if you want a real sandwich, go to La Sandwicherie in Miami or Philippe's the Original in L.A. At least they know how to treat a customer and a chair. One star... that's only because Yelp doesn't let me leave a flaming bag of zero). Yelp's "Best in America"? More like "Best Scam in Indio. read more

TKB has been my favorite sandwich spot for years, at least since 2017. I haven't been since the pandemic and was so happy to come back, and find a bright, clean and large new location (or new to me)! I ordered the Trump Card and it didn't disappoint. They certainly load this one up, so you'd better come hungry or plan to share! I love the flavors of the salami, pepper jack and chipotle sauce in this sandwich. The jalapeño focaccia bread is soft and fluffy but doesn't fall apart despite the size, though this definitely isn't something to try to eat on the road. My boyfriend got the crispy chicken sandwich and said it's the best he's ever had. We also grabbed a lemon bar from the bakery and it was delicious; there were many other tasty options to choose from! We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was relatively busy, but the wait after ordering was not long (maybe 5-10 minutes). Would definitely recommend this spot if you're in the Coachella / Indio / Palm Springs area or on a road trip! read more

Apparently it's a good idea to call ahead. Anyway, we ordered the grilled cheese, a smash burger, the OG Pastrami, and the Sexy Italian.

We tried for the first time the bacon ranch crispy sandwich.. it was not bad but I probably would not try again. It just personally wasn't for me. My hubby also got the Jalapeño poppers (not pictured), Really good, huge poppers and their ranch just pairs so well with them! I would def get these again, recommend.

Im in town for a family reunion. After several days of only eating rice and meat, my cousins and I decided we needed some veggies in our life. This place was not to far from the resort and it had plenty of good reviews. Walking in, the place is huge. They have tons of seats, and can accommodate bigger groups. They have a big selection of bottled and canned drinks to choose from, or fountain soda, and tea options. The bakery serves coffee/espresso and has a really pretty showcase full of all the desserts. We all decided on a few different desserts to share. We each ordered our own sandwich, we also ordered fried cheese curds, jalapeño poppers, and onion rings. All were pretty good. I ordered the OG Pastrami based on other reviews, and it was a good decision. The group seemed to like all their sandwiches. When we got to dessert, we found that most of them were too sweet, but out of all of them the lemon bar was the best one. read more

I didn't plan for breakfast for the last day of my family trip and because of this, I decided to look for a place near our accommodation. Fortunately, I found this place due to the sheer amount of good reviews. I got there at 9:30 AM on a Sunday and already, there were customers and a whole frenzy of workers. Their parking lot is huge and the inside is extremely spacious as well. The first thing I needed was a coffee and thus, I ordered a cold brew near the entrance of the store. It hit the spot, fairly strong and pretty sizeable. The food didn't take that long to come out; we ordered, paid and got our food within 15 minutes. The music in the restaurant was also pretty top notch; it was 9:30 in the morning and they were turning on some 90s and 2000s dance and electronic music. At one point, Darude Sandstorm came on and I cracked up a little. The sandwiches were pretty good, dare I say the best in the region? However, there wasn't anything unique or noteworthy about them. They were extremely solid, fairly above average sandwiches. That is not to say that this place is a mediocre sandwich spot, and I would recommend people to stop by if they could. They also served breakfast at that time, which I should have gotten but I was more curious about their sandwiches. I would also like to try something from the bakery next time, as the coffee station also doubled up as one. read more

Nice, spacious location with inviting outdoor seating! Hubby and I opted to share the Trump Card sandwich on gluten free bread (no, it was NOT named after the current Trump guy in the White House). Although it was not life changing, it was pretty damn tasty! The gluten free bread was quite delicious! I love that they didn't overwhelm the sandwich with bread, as their gluten free bread was just enough bread to give the sandwich a nice hint of carbs without going overboard. Service was fine. Food came out quickly. We devoured our sandwich and went on our merry way! I wouldn't make a special trip here, but would definitely stop by again if I'm in the area! read more
