Cowboy Cantina is committed to bringing its guests innovative Southwestern Cuisine, food based in the rustic cooking and recipes of dishes that were eaten by colonial Spanish settlers, American Cowboys, Native Americans, and even the people of Mexico to the south. Known for its diversity and spices, specifically chile, whether red or green. Cowboy brings a fusion of these chiles (specifically from Hatch) and combines them with traditional “Americana” dishes and we believe our guests will find them as delicious as we do. Bring your boots and appetites and stay for the party!

Amazing spot to enjoy a nice family dinner. Our waitress was amazing. I ordered the prix fixe meal including the spinach and portabello mushroom salad, 10oz ribeye medium rare, and the peanut butter pie. Wife ordered the Salmon Salad. Both were amazing. We got the kids the Mac n Cheese and that was also really really good. Food was well prepared, atmosphere was great and the service was on point. Made us feel welcome!

The Ambiance, fast busy pace, comfortable chairs in the waiting area and outside, smiles and attentive Hostess an active and courteous manager, Great environment and such great tasty food. The BBQ WAS THE BEST IN TOWN! Flavorful, sweet tangy and just right. Tried a little bit of everything. Will be back, looking forward to the amazing menu. Also met the owner and he was awesome I give this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cowboy Cantina is a great place to dine out. They have really good tex mex style food with unique twists. Their craft cocktails are not only very reasonably priced ($9-$10), but they are also pretty strong. I definitely recommend it if you are looking for a good night out, but you don’t want to stress out your wallet.

A solid 4 for the food, although a bit pricey. The baby back ribs and the smash burger were both fantastic. The Cantina Combo was a bit underwhelming. The kettle fries were crispy and fresh. Overall a nice experience. We will be back again.

Great new spot working out some kinks but an amazing spicy margarita and the best jalapeño poppers that I have ever had! Went for a post golf drink and will be coming back for sure. At the bar, it would be great if they had a screen saver on the bartenders screen as it was very bright in a dimly lit bar.

Excellent food and service! We randomly went here during our stay in palm desert and were greeted and serviced by friendly staff. We started with margaritas and Paloma’s which were made to perfection. My wife got
