Which location should you visit?

Choose the branch tied to the episode if that is the reason for your trip. A later location or successor business may have a different menu, so check before making a special trip for a dish you saw on television.

Even though a couple of featured restaurants have closed, several Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives favorites remain open and easy to visit within a short drive of each other. Whether you’re chasing a Guy Fieri food tour or just looking for tried-and-true local favorites, these spots are still worth adding to your Palm Springs itinerary.
