If you’re ready to explore the culinary delights of Cathedral City, you’ve come to the right place!
We will explore my top 5 favorite places to eat, where I can’t seem to get enough.
The stunning desert landscapes of Cathedral City are amazing, but today, we are diving into something even more exciting. FOOD, our local food scene, and my top picks.
Trust me. As someone who is practically a fixture at these spots, I know what I’m talking about.
Tony’s Burgers
Don’t let the name fool you. This isn’t just another burger place. This is the culinary love child of American and Mexican American Cuisine right in the heart of Cathedral City. Don’t miss their insane avocado, sweet potato, cajun, garlic, or truffle fries. This delicacy alone will have you coming back for more. Fish tacos will make you weep with joy, pulled pork that makes your mouth water just looking at it, and ginormous salads for health-conscious people. Let’s not forget about the gourmet burgers that are, well, gourmet. The toppings are insane, and the delicious, messy wonderfulness is not to be missed. If you leave Tony’s Burgers hungry, you’re doing it wrong.
Barrel District Pizza, Bar, & Kitchen
Nearby, we slide over to Barrel District Pizza, Bar & Kitchen. I love their environment and their friendly staff. I always feel like I’m dining in someone’s home. It’s common to see tables of patrons mixing and mingling with each other in this communal, friendly environment. This place isn’t just a restaurant. It’s a taste bud carnival, whether it’s craft beer or pizza that’ll make you sing. Barrel District should be your go-to spot for seafood that dances in your mouth or plant-based options that surprise you with their flavors. Your taste buds will thank you, trust me.
Salsa’s Mexican Restaurant
This restaurant has been in the business for over a decade, and they are still knocking it out of the park. They don’t just serve food; it is a cultural experience. Think Grandma’s secret recipes with a side of fun atmosphere. You will find the perfect blend of relaxed and vibrant. It is ideal for everything from casual dinners to a celebratory drink. You will find it an intimate space that is very popular with the locals. Get there early and enjoy a cocktail while waiting for a spot in their dining room or patio. I love their grilled fish Tacos, but you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. A very friendly and helpful staff makes the busyness fade Into the background. The wait is well worth it, trust me.
Henry’s Sports Bar and Grill
Can you say, tater tots? I know you can! This family-friendly spot is where food and fun collide. It offers burgers, sandwiches, nachos, quesadillas, wings, loaded fries, and much more!
Did I mention how much I love their tater tots? Yeah, I did, but I can never go there without ordering them. Whether you’re at Henry’s for the sports, karaoke, dancing, or just the damn good food and drinks, Henry’s has got you covered. It’s where yummy memories are made, one bite and one laugh at a time.
Upper Crust Pizza
Last but certainly not least, there’s Upper Crust Pizza. Why do their customers keep coming back? Simple, it’s the love and care they put into every pizza, pasta, sandwich, and salad. I promise you’ll rave about the crust that is as light as cotton candy, killer sauces, generous toppings, no-shortcut preparation, and the freshest ingredients. That’s what pizza dreams are made of! They don’t only offer pizza; they also serve hot sandwiches, salads, and OMG, they even have this chocolate chip pizza cookie ala mode dessert.
Whether you’re after a burger haven, craft kitchen, Mexican delights, family fun, or a pizza paradise, Cathedral City’s vibrant dining scene never ceases to amaze me.
This culinary journey continues. It’s just another delicious day in our wonderful city!
