We made reservations as they are a must this time of year! Our waitress,Alicia, was exceptional in every way, my Chilean Seabass was cooked to perfection and my wife's prime rib was generous and also cooked to perfection! The glasses were always full and we didn't see any table around us wanting for more! Well done staff and Prayers for Patrick!!!

We enjoyed our evening at The Grill. The food was very good. My only complaint was the timing. We had not finished our salad when our main course was served. I moved my salad over to finish and the next thing I knew the bowl was taken away.

Great restaurant! Everything we had was delicious. Beautiful patio with heaters when necessary. Service was excellent. The kitchen modified a dish for me (substituted prawns for scallops) and seemed genuinely happy to do it. Highly recommend!

Food was nothing special, we both had a pasta dish which could very easily have come from the Spaghetti Factory. The Brie appetizer was very good but was served with lightly toasted slices of either white or wheat bread... found that very odd. Usually Brie is served with crackers, baguette or crostini not slices of toasted bread slices cut on the diagonal.

We were sat promptly, introduced to our server; food and drinks ordered. All meals were substantial in portion, as well as delicious. Server checked in mid-meal to refresh drinks. Overall a pleasant experience.

Our server, Fernando, was very good as were all of the waitstaff. It was just a little noisier than we prefer, even though we were back towards a corner. The portions are quite big.

This was my first visit. Our group of 5 was seated in the patio by the fireplace with a view of the downtown area. Very nice. Francisco, our server, was friendly and accommodating. We focused on the appetizer menu. The melted brie cheese dish was a real hit with all, as were the roasted brussel sprouts. The hamburger was large; we shared it among several of us. A return trip is in the works.

The food was excellent. I had the fish and chips which were huge portions. My wife had the Coachella salad with salmon and also had large portions. Both of us couldn't finish our servings. The drinks were perfect. My wife is a Cosmo snob and loved her Cosmo. Aaron was our waiter. We've had him in the past and he is excellent. He hustles and is attentive. A little on the noisy side inside but overall great. Recommend sitting outside if the weather is good.

Restaurant is poorly managed. Very disappointed that they would not allow 2 more people to join our table and they sat them in the bar stating they didn't have seats. When in fact they had ten vacant seats in our area of the restaurant. The food was ok not great. Waitress tried to provide us a different wine other than what we ordered. Never brought butter for the table. Never came back to the table when we were expressing our concerns and the manager didn't care.

I asked for table for 4 outside. Having eaten there before, outside to me meant under shaded area. However, our table was outside that area on a patio. There was a band playing across the street and it was very loud for a good part of the evening. Food was alright, nothing to rave about. If French fries are a criteria, they failed. Server was fine as was busboy. Would I go back, maybe, not quite sure. I would recommend as a casual spot to stop by if your in the area.

We were giving sn inside table where it was quit noisy. We ask to be moved. The hostess was very accomadating and moved us ouside to the porch. It was much better. The scallops carbonara was delicious. My husbands prime rib was the best he said ever! Everyone was quick to attend to our every need. Ryan was our wonderful waiter. It was lovely.

Our table was extremely noisy so that you had to yell to be heard. Dinner of seafood pasta (special) was said to not have clams by waiter. It was full of unopened clams (dead or uncooked). Wife's ciopino was fine. Overall not a good dining experience!

Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. She gave us the daily specials and answered our questions well. All in all, it was an excellent visit. The food was very good and the service was quick. They even allowed us to get separate checks, which has, on other occasions, not been allowed. We were very grateful for this change of management attitude.

The fish and chips were fabulous as usual. Our favorite thing on the menu, but everything is delicious. I also especially enjoy the chicken picatta. We usually enjoy the patio as the inside can become quite noisy.

We are repeat visitors to Grill on Main. One of our “go to” spots in La Quinta. Haven't been disappointed. Guests we brought today were very happy with the overall experience. Thank you.
