“We love Eddie vs Our only problem with the restaurant is how very loud the venue is Especially if you're older and wear hearing aids as my husband does I do wish there were a way for them to address the noise level Maybe the band in the bar could lower the volume during dinner hours Anyway The food ambiance service is excellent Just wish we could hear the conversation of our seat mates“

“Mitch's is a great seafood and steak restaurant with a massive outdoor patio. Today, we were inside. It was elegant and warm. The waiter service was fantastic and friendly. We loved their masterful cocktails, especially the espresso martini. The sushi and oysters were great appetizers. Their chocolate dessert that melts off was a fun dessert to watch and eat.“

“Took our family member here for her birthday. Tanya, our server, was so welcoming and pleasant. She seemed like she genuinely enjoyed people and her disposition was very authentic and rare among servers. There was also a bus person on staff who was prompt with filling waters, clearing plates, etc. It is clear that this restaurant takes service very seriously. Despite the great service, it never felt stuffy btw.The food was also on par with the service. We had salads (one pear and two beet), the Chilean sea bass, cioppino, crab cakes, and a few dishes for the kids. Everything was fantastic: fresh and well prepared..We had a reservation for outdoor dining which ended up being on a windy evening. The outdoor patio was actually sheltered and heated, so despite being offered to move inside, we enjoyed the outdoor patio. What an amazing restaurant; would definitely recommend!“

Now I'm just stalking everyone's photos craving & dreaming about it. I've tried so many other items on the menu but this one really takes the cake. I made a petition in hopes they can bring it back, perhaps think about signing it?“

So they set up s couple of heatlamps for us by our table outside. Great service that night and on every previous visit!I always loved their 50% off all bottles of wine on Tuesdays. Great restaurant in a great mall located in a beautiful area of Palm Desert. I highly recommend a visit when you are in this area!“

“Excellent selection of vegetarian, vegan, or omnivore options. Service was excellent, on the border of too much checking up on us, but that's not their fault, mostly just me being a misanthrope who was tired at the time. I casually said I was underwhelmed by a cocktail and they took it off the bill without my asking (the berry beauty--tasted very weak, like bourbon and ginger ale, nothing like a strong ginger beer, no sign of the mint, and the berries were just a garnish, not flavor-infused in any way).Chile relleno was delicious but could have been served at a hotter temperature.Elote shishito pepper starter dish was excellent.Beet salad was delicious, but for $18 at least give me more greens. I'm happy to pay, I just want to leave with a full stomach.The vegetable paella was delicious and filling, but it tasted more like risotto. Truly an excellent variety of vegetables, but creamy with none of the crispiness I associate with paella.Chocolate cake for dessert was delicious.Live music (not too loud) and just one TV at the bar made for a really nice ambience. It's in a regular shopping plaza with a ton of parking. (I prefer a denser setting in which you might be able to walk somewhere after, but parking lots are the American way, so I can't blame them.)Dietary restrictions: Lots of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. They were up front about asking for any restrictions and were happy to make substitutions.“

The Fisherman's Grotto Seafood • $$

“If you haven't been to the Grotto at Fisherman's Market in Palm Desert, you don't know what you're missing. We are so happy that Louis Pagano has survived the Covid pandemic and has re-opened his beloved local hangout. And, of course, he has assembled the best staff to support him, as he always has in the past. James, the bar manager, is probably one of the best in the business. If you like Tequilas, James has assembled an incredible collection of some of the best that you didn't even know existed. As far as the food is concerned, Ivan now heads that end of the restaurant. Not only is he a chef, but he is also an artist. Every dish that we sampled was presented beautifully and wonderfully spiced. We are so glad you're back! Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality!“

Anthony, the general manager is very professional and has an amazing team working with him from chef Torres who is probably the best chef in town to his serving staff. The wine list is extensive and well priced. From the time you drive up to the beautiful building to the time you leave you feel like it is a place you have to go back to.“

It could easily be a full meal on its own or split between 4 people. Next best was the garlic cheesy bread. I could eat that all day. Drinks are very standard. Don't expect a mixologist but they do have a decent bar and a drink menu. Will definitely come back here if I'm in the area!“

“Usually love it here. Best food ever. Drove over 2 hours to get here from San Diego.....were spending the night in Palm Springs. We get there 10 minutes before closing time. They won't seat us (no big deal and we get it). They still had a dining room half full of people and it's a Friday Night. Can we order something to go. The hostess goes over to the kitchen and apparently it's a no go. If someone came in the door to any restaurant I've ever worked in at 10 minutes to closing....we would have sat them. Absolutely made my day a bit crappy. We drove back to Bills Pizza in Palm Springs. We ordered our pizza and were surprised. Excellent pizza.“
