Unique Bite has some really special dishes! I had a lamb burger with feta and it was shockingly delicious. My family had the pork plate and the mushroom lentil soup; not a crumb was left behind. The staff was extremely friendly, it feels like home right away.
If you’re a burger lover, especially when it comes to lamb burgers, you absolutely have to check out this place in Palm Springs, CA! It brings back those warm memories of when Fuddruckers was a staple in our lives, with its inviting atmosphere and quality food. This spot really nails that classic vibe by using top-notch meat and crafting their burgers with love and consistency. I got to try both their lamb burger and the BBB (Beef Bacon Burger), and oh man, they were both amazing! But let me tell you, the lamb burger was the star of the show—it was super juicy and packed with vibrant flavors that really popped. And their burger buns? They’re not your run-of-the-mill buns; they use generous ciabatta bread from a local bakery that really elevates each burger. While I was there, I had a lovely chat with one of the owners, a warm and welcoming woman. She shared that they source their meat from two different suppliers to create their own unique patties. Plus, those ciabatta buns really enhance that fresh, homemade feel! Don’t forget to ask about their homemade sauces when you visit! One of their spicy sauces really caught my attention with its subtle sweetness. Now, I'm not usually one for sweet flavors, but it added a delightful balance to the heat that a lot of folks would appreciate. You should definitely give it a try and see how it complements your burger! The restaurant is run by a super friendly husband-and-wife team, and you can tell they take pride in keeping the place spotless. The vibe is modern and inviting, and best of all, the prices are totally reasonable—no need to worry about breaking the bank! If you’re passionate about burgers, especially lamb burgers, this hidden gem in Palm Springs is one you won’t want to miss!
We were on the way home from Arizona got hungry. Decided we’d do a little exploring really happy we found this place. A mom and Pop joint. They’ve been open since 2017 and I think they should stay open a heck of a lot longer because the food was great, and the service was outstanding recommended.
The ambiance and service was amazing. The food, however, was PHENOMENAL! The hubby and I each got the 22 bites burger with fries. I would drive the 4 hours to come eat it again! Wonderful, wonderful establishment!
Family owned. Very tasty home cooked food. Generous portions. Nice variety on the menu. Reasonably priced. Our group had the brisket platter, quessadia, stuffed chicken, and creamy chicken with rice. Everyone was very happy with their meal.
Cute little place. Family owned and operated. The creamy rice is a super unique family recipe. The food all looks super fresh when it comes out. Perfect temperature. I had the chicken and creamy rice. So tasty. The fries were really good. Perfectly seasoned and crunchy yet fluffy. The staff were friendly and personable. 10/10 would be back
Went with my family here before Indian wells to eat and we were all pleasantly surprised by the food and service here. I got the 22 bites which is a huge burger with probably over a pound of meat that was amazingly good. The fries had this spicy-ish seasoning that was really good. As a Michigander, the prices seemed high but I understand that prices are just higher in general here in California, so I don't think it was too expensive proportionally. The cashier was very nice and periodically checked up on us to make sure we were ok. Overall, great food and great service!
If you’re looking for a casual, locally owned spot in Indio that actually delivers on flavor, let me introduce you to UniQue Bite Eatery 🙌 This family-owned gem is tucked inside Shadow Hills Plaza and it’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a regular, even on your first visit. Here’s what we ordered: ✨ Creamy Chicken & Rice – I had this and it was SO good. Super flavorful, perfectly cooked, and genuinely comforting without feeling heavy. Total comfort food moment. 🍋 Fresh Lemonade – Bright, refreshing, and the perfect balance to the creamy dish with strawberry pieces in it! 🍔 Classic Burger – My friends ordered the burger and everyone was happy. Juicy, well-seasoned, and clearly made with care. No sad, dry patties here. What I love about this place: • Family-owned and welcoming • Big flavors without big prices • Options for a variety of tastes, including vegetarian-friendly choices • Easy, casual vibe, perfect for lunch or a low-key dinner 💲 Bonus: It’s super reasonable for the quality. Definitely one of those “why don’t we come here more often?” spots.
We were looking for a good breakfast spot after hiking the Badlands in Indio and finally decided to try Unique Bite Eatery after hearing great things about it for a while. It was absolutely worth the trip across the valley. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and unique without feeling overcomplicated. You can tell they put real care into both the ingredients and presentation. The staff made the experience even better. From the moment we walked in, everyone was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely friendly, with big smiles and great service throughout our meal. We had such a great experience that we are already planning to come back to try their lunch and dinner menu. Highly recommended if you are looking for something a little different and higher quality than the typical breakfast spot in the area.
Deliciously delicious Food and Great Service! Picked a restaurant based on the different pallets of my family and Unique Bites Eatery Filled our bill to the T! I Ordered the 22 bites burger, pulled pork plate and Creamy Rice (on the side) and Spaghetti. Pulled Pork has a soft supple tenderness and seasoned to perfection! The 22 bites burger extremely flavored again to perfection the bites are not heavy and laboring to chew but a nice crisp bite thru and thru. Yes its a Huge burger that will fill you up quickly but I promise you will try your best to finish it all like I did. As a side I recommend the Creamy Chicken and Rice! Its Hearty Creamy and the chicken is a delicate chew and the sauce is super velvety. Its literally mouth watering WHILE EATING IT! I've never had an experience like that with any main dish much less with a dish ordered as a side! The service is Excellent! As this is our First visit the attention to our questions was beyond expected and very helpful! I can not say enough about the service but it is GREAT! There is also a vegetarian variety of the same meals which is awesome! A full Hearty and welcoming experience that will leave you wanting more! I 100% recommend! Please come and enjoy your self and your meal!
