Golden brown cube steak and country gravy with two eggs (over medium) and hash browns. Served with whole wheat toast. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
I really enjoyed this (even though my arteries say “no”!). The country steak was nicely fried and the gravy was tasty. The hash browns were also nice and crispy and not greasy. NOMS!
Roasted turkey, ham, crispy bacon, lettuce, tomato, and herbed mayo on wheat bread. Served with crinkle-cut fried and pickle. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
This sandwich was pretty standard and was nothing special. At least it wasn’t dry. I liked the fries though. They were nicely fried and not greasy.
Dozen housemade meatballs covered with Frank’s Red Hot sauce served with bleu cheese, celery, and carrot sticks. $9.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
I’m doubtful that these meatball are actually housemade. They felt and tasted previously frozen to me, but maybe that’s because they were of poor quality. I didn’t enjoy this very much. The meatballs were dry and boring.
Cheese, toasted asiago roll, beef au jus, served with French fries. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
This sandwich was REALLY dry – from the bun to the roast beef. The beef was almost like jerky, gross! #foodfail
Cup $3.95

This wasn’t the best onion soup I’ve had, but I appreciated the abundance of melted cheese on top. The soup itself was on the thin and salty side.
With bermuda onion, lettuce tomato, swiss cheese, and herb mayo. Served with garlic fries. $10.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
This burger was decent. It was still tender, but not overly juicy. I liked that they toasted their buns and the French fries were very good.
Two pieces of crispy battered cod filet on a buttered grilled bun, with tartar sauce, lettuce, and tomato. Substitute for gorgonzola fries with Frank’s Red Hot sauce. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
This sandwich was huge! I guess I didn’t pay attention when it said “two pieces” of fish, lol! Anyway, it tasty pretty good and it certainly was filling. I didn’t like their gourmet fries though. I didn’t realized that they were going to get covered with the hot sauce and gorgonzola, so they came out REALLY limp and unappetizing.
Grilled chicken breast, queso fresco, romaine lettuce, pepitas, tomatoes, and housemade tri-color corn chips, tossed in garlic, olive oil, and cilantro dressing. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
I enjoyed this. It was one of the few lighter items on their menu, but it didn’t lack in flavor. The chicken was also pretty tender despite my weariness of grilled whole breast because they dry out pretty quickly.
Corned beef hash and two poached eggs, served with fresh fruit. $10.50
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
Ok, I may be crazy but I love the soft corned beef hash style that’s like from a can, lol! I’m ghetto, I know. That means that this dish tasted amazing to me, hehe!
Three eggs over medium, hash browns, sausage patties, wheat toast. $9.25
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
I think this plate was less of a jump-start and more of a put-you-in-a-food-coma, hehe. There was nothing special about this dish, but everything was cooked properly and tasted good.
Coffee and mimosa.
Johnny’s bbq sauce, onion rings, smoked cheddar, and bacon served with crinkle-cut fries and a pickle. $11.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
The bacon was the best part of this burger because it was cooked perfectly. The patty was tender enough but a bit on the bland side. It could have been seasoned a bit better so thank goodness for the bbq sauce. Overall, it was ok.
Chicken, refried beans, pepper jack/cheddar shred and scallions on tri-colored tortilla chips with pico de gallo, sour cream and guacamole. $9.95
Bongo Johnny’s, Palm Springs CA
This was a huge plate of nachos, but they weren’t anything special. I guess the multi-colored chips were supposed to elevate it but that didn’t really happen. It was pretty standard nachos, and dare I say a little on the bland side.
