The DEZ fine food - takeaway - catering

Great coffee - cute little shop! My best friend and I tried somewhere else first but they were closed. Someone referred us here and I'm so glad they did! We each got an iced coffee and it had great flavor!

We didn't eat anything as we had already eaten but their food looked amazing. They have grab and go healthy items too. The staff was friendly. Great location right on the main highway. Would definitely stop again.

AMAZING! Love the food here and the people are great as well. Stopped in for lunch and I must say it’s very tasty! The Turkey bacon wrap is the best I’ve ever had! The albacore tuna on sourdough is so bomb! This place is a must stop and enjoy!!!

Absolutely one of the nicest experiences I had at Joshua Tree. The lady said she really appreciated how politely I asked. I told her my name was Jeff, and she put me down as 'King Jeff'. And although I can't prove it, I feel like these sandwiches we bought were made with extra love.

So yeah. I recommend this place. ✌️

The moment you walk in the door you know you're home. I'm not sure how I missed this place during my research of places to eat in JT but so glad we found it. It became our daily go to for coffee and a quiche and to grab a couple sandwiches and some salads for our day out in the park. Thanks to the super friendly staff and talented cooks back in that tiny kitchen. Your food is delicious!

The food was extremely good, very well prepared and fresh. In fact, this is some of the best food in town. Impressive, and I'll be back!

I tried the BLT and the caprese sandwich, both were great. The one thing that bothered me was that each sandwich came with 38g of single-use plastic. I wish they'd asked me, and offered me an alternative.

Now I'll have to find some way to reuse them... I hate single use plastic!

We tried the Lunchbox deal from The DEZ which was perfect for our hike on Lost Horse Loop - they provide a sandwich, a salad, chips, a fruit and a cookie all for the cost of $15! Staff are very friendly and gave us good tips for the area too!

As a French person, I taste all the croissants that I stumble upon in the US in the hopes of finally finding a good one, which is not a given. Well, the best American croissant I’ve ever had is here, at Dez, in Joshua Tree! Who would have thought? Unsure if they make it there or if they buy it from a baker in town, but that little guy is perfection. Crusty but all soft inside like a croissant should be, medium sized, very buttery and you can definitely taste the salt, just incredible!! Well done!

We went here a few times during our stay in Joshua Tree. They serve Stumptown coffee (soo good) and have amazing sandwiches. We also got a charcuterie board for lunch that was 10/10. Highly recommend stopping here. Great place to fuel up before or after going to the nat’l park.

Tried the panini, an everything bagel, and a drip coffee. Very good. Will be back for more. Everything in behind the glass case was asking to be sampled. However I was on a bike and had no room to take extras back. Be forewarned, when you ask for cream cheese with your bagel, you get it. And I like it.

Got a latte and a tuna melt with provolone.

Great, simple latte - the espresso quality is clearly good. The tuna melt was absolutely fabulous, probably one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in a long time. The bread was fresh and grilled to perfection, served at just the right temperature for the cheese to melt and still remain in one piece, the tuna seemed fresh and flavorful, and the portion size was very good for the price! Came with a little arugula salad on the side, which was a great touch.

I drove here from LA, and I might probably go back just for the tuna melt 😂 The staff is very nice, which gives the place a homey vibe - and they have a bunch of other drinks and snacks to-go!
