WaBa Grill
42250 Jackson St Suite 101, Indio, CA 92203, United States
I ordered my food to be ready at 12:15 at 11 so when I arrived I was expecting it to be ready, it wasnt. Someone else who had walked in and ordered as I was waiting there for my food got their food before me so I got up to ask about my food again. It was ready and they just had it sitting there. I ordered 10 dumplings, received no sauce for the dumplings and on top of that 8 of the 10 dumplings were somehow undercooked and burnt at the same time and they were extremely chewy and doughy and just not good. I also ordered a miso soup, just a plain miso soup which is cheaper than the loaded miso soup and was given the loaded miso soup instead. I detest soggy rice and just wanted a plain miso soup so that was also ruined for me. The employees were completely lost in the sauce and did not seem to care about anything. I had given this place another chance after about a 2 month break because the service was always slow when I went. After this experience I will NOT be coming back ever. If youre in the mood for waba grill I urge you to go to flame broiler instead, they NEVER mess up my order and the service is always fast!

I read the reviews so I decided to try this local Indio restaurant since we were passing through. It's a clean, quaint little place and the staff was very friendly. I love that everything is made fresh and from scratch. There are no microwaves on sight! When I looked at the menu is when I realized that this little restaurant, after three years, doesn't have an identity.Their dishes consisted of Indian, Asian, Italian and American inspired food. It was hard to make a decision that would really help me to understand why they were so highly rated. My father, who would be indecisive with only two items on the menu, settles on the creamy chicken and rice and I got the cheesesteak with a side of creamy rice.The food made it out in about 15 minutes and was served on black disposable plates. The cheesesteak looked like a good size sandwich, but the side of creamy rice looked like white steamed rice. My fathers meal covered most of his small plate and it honestly looked like a dish that my wife makes at home quite often and my father confirmed that it tasted a lot like it too. It was good, but not great. My cheesesteak was also good, but not great. I have definitely had much better. The rice was bland and come to find out creamy rice is only rice that has been cooked in milk instead of water.I honestly wanted to love this place, but the reality was that I just didn't. It was average and I don't know if I would go again when passing through. They have a great concept, but they really need to decide what genre of food they are going to focus on to make it great.
Art Alkobar Grill
82590 CA-111 #104, Indio, CA 92201, United States
Locals go nuts over this place, and IMO it was a bit overhyped. I was told to order the Philly Steak with extra cheese, and while it was definitely cheesy, the whole thing just tasted kinda bland. No real extraordinary flavor. I also ordered the Chicken Hawaiian which I thought was also bland.Ordering the large 16” just means two of the regular ones. It's ~$8-10 for the regular sized sandwiches and 2x the amount for the large. There are lots of items on the menu, but the two I chose were average.The place didn't decorate too much on the inside, but the soda is easily accessible to accommodate as many refills as you'd like. There are also restrooms for customers which was nice.I probably won't be returning. That place wasn't worth the price—the food just simply tasted bland but filling.
Joy - Asian Cuisine
84-245 Indio Springs Pkwy, Indio, CA 92203, United States
I mean how fantastic can casino food in the middle of nowhere be?! We went to fantasy for my first time and Joy seemed like the most high class restaurant this facility had to offer. Walking in the light was dimly lit and we were very well taken care of, with hot towels upon seating and candle lit.Servers were all very polite and constantly check up on us to see if we were okay. We ordered a big meal but everything werent authentic and catered towards foreigners, even though it was an asian fusion restaurant.The favorite of the night was their prawn shrimp and the spicy cucumber. I highly suggest not to order their pad thai ...it was pretty much just regular noodles.
Sumo Dog
49-830 Jefferson St Suite 106, Indio, CA 92201, United States
Fantastic new restaurant in Citrus Plaza. Great tasting hot dogs with cool Asian fusion dogs. I had a Bahn Mí Dog with a side of tots. All the drinks are canned, and overall it is a little pricey but well worth it! Five stars.
