“It felt like I had walked into a friend's home—that's how welcomed and cared for I felt while dining here! The hospitality was incredible. The bread service was a 10/10. I seriously wish I could go back RIGHT NOW just for the bread!!! And the Lychee Star?! I honestly don't even need to go into everything else I ordered just know that EVERYTHING was a 10/10. Such an amazing experience, and I can't wait to go back! ❤️”
“Desie & Gabe were wonderful- attentive, personable, great service. Food delicious w/ superb mixing of spices & flavors. Relaxing ambience. Highly recommend & looking forward to returning. Dennis & Lauren”
“There is good food, there is great food, and once in a great while you hit that place that not only has great food, but amazing service, owner and staff. Those moments really hit, and this was one of those moments. Hint, they open at 4, get in line at least by 3:30.”
“Paul and Eldina, amazing people! So nice to meet them. Accurate attention with us. A really nice and familiar place, good food! And so fast! We left Elmer’s restaurant really happy 😃 (Ailen & Lorenzo)”

“If you walk out of there not full. It’s your own fault. They serve you delicious food! But eat only half of your meal so you can save room for dessert.”
“A wonderful addition to Palm Springs. We especially love that Bougainvillea is locally owned and family-run, which gives the restaurant a warm, personal feel.
The menu is creative and interesting, with a terrific blend of Italian, Mexican, and Latin influences. We started with the calamari, which was outstanding—unique, beautifully flavored, and unlike any version we’ve had before. My husband had the white Bolognese, and I had the al pastor pork chop. Both dishes were excellent and packed with flavor. The service was perfect.
From start to finish, everything was beautifully prepared and thoroughly enjoyable. It’s exciting to have such a great new restaurant here in Palm Springs. We will absolutely be back.”
“Outstanding every-time we visit. Great Seafood, pasta, lobster bisque and much more. This is our favorite restaurant in Palm Springs and we recommend it as a definite not to be missed. Nothing fancy here, just great food and a comfortable welcoming environment. Enjoy!”

“So great and fun! I’ve had a bunch of the margaritas and they all taste fresh and delicious. Not too sweet and very high quality. The menu changes seasonally and the dishes are ultra flavorful. Definitely a thumbs up. Vibes are nice too. Anthony provided perfect recommendations and was a delight to hang out with.”

“Some places you discover. Others you return to — year after year, like a ritual you'd never dare break. Counter Reformation in Palm Springs is the latter, and every visit only deepens the devotion.
Dark, intimate, and dripping with atmosphere, this is a wine bar that takes the craft seriously without taking itself too seriously. The vibe is effortlessly cool — candlelit and unhurried, the kind of room where time loosens its grip and conversation flows as freely as the wine.
Speaking of which — Britney. The woman is a gift. As sommelier, she curates this list with a connoisseur's precision and a true lover's instinct. She remembers what you liked, anticipates what you'll adore, and somehow always lands on the exact pour you didn't know you needed. Her knowledge is vast, but it's her warmth that truly elevates the experience. In Britney's hands, every glass tells a story.
Year after year, Counter Reformation earns its place as one of our most cherished stops in the desert. It never disappoints. It only gets better.
See you again next year.”
“Food is great as well as the prices. Margarita are good as well. I will definitely be coming back. I’ve been here four or five times now. The waiter didn’t once ask me once how my meal was. Nor did he offer dessert. The gentleman refilling my water, salsa, and chips was awesome though. Maybe I happen to miss it each time I’m but I really would like to hear some mariachi or other types of traditional Mexican music whether live or recorded. This is a Mexican restaurant after all. Again, I definitely plan on coming back.”
“This is one of the coolest bars anywhere. No signs. Just a heavy dark curtain covers the entrance from the adjoining steak house. Exceptional boutique cocktail bar. Wonderful libations and super service.”
“Sat outside around 9 tonight and had wonderful service. Food was excellent and the cocktails were delicious. Margarita flight was the perfect choice. 10/10 would recommend”

“Frisky Business’s byline—“Where Cats, Community, and Kindness Come Together”—truly encapsulates not only its business philosophy; but also what it is like to visit here. Whether it’s for a refreshing coffee drink and tasty pastry; spending some time playing with in-house cats (for a reasonable fee); or attending one of the special events, it’s always a fun and enjoyable experience. On top of that (and reflecting the values of “Mr and Mrs Frisky”), there is a “pay it forward” board where one can purchase a drink or cat visit for someone who might need some support; and a pantry box where cat food donations can be dropped off for those who can use it or who feed community cats. I recommend Frisky Business to my local friends; and it’s a must “to do” when visitors come to town. It’s a great place owned by great people.”
“FARM is one of our favorite restaurants in Palm Springs. It never disappoints. From the moment you hit the host's stand to the minute you say goodbye you are treated like you are someone special! Our server, Chris, gave us some excellent recommendations and was a wonderful server! The live music is the cherry on top!”
“Love this bread store. I think it has a tremendous value to access to a family owned business thay specialized on bread. The prices are slightly high. May be the portions are smaller than expected but good quality. My wish is thay they have more of fresh bread that have good fresh crust. Highly recommended.”
“I apologize but I have been going to get food at this location ever since they opened. I should have given a review from the start, but I wanted to wait until I truly experienced all of what they have to offer. All I have to say is, AMAZING. Everything from their carnitas tacos to carne asada nachos is the best. I can say I even drink their hot sauce lol. You want food that gives every bang for the buck, you need to go here. They are such wonderful people to deal with, which makes it even better.”
“Wow!! Absolutely amazing restaurant and bar! Flew in late last night and wanted a fun place with atmosphere to have appetizers and drinks. This was the perfect place!! Outdoor or indoor patio with mist kept is cool and refreshed. Loved the dim lighting and the modern decor! So inviting and relaxing. Fresh flowers on the tables and comfortable chairs. Very good service ! Excellent food! Tasty drinks that were visually appealing!! I’ll definitely go back ! Julio The manager greeted us and chatted with us and made us feel so welcome!! Our waiter was Jonathan was very friendly and attentive . This place is a gem and in the perfect location downtown!”
“Tasty, yum-yum food! 😋 The shawarma platter and beef wrap were amazing. Everything was delicious, and it’s halal too! Definitely recommend! 🌯🔥”

“I enjoyed a wonderful experience at Farm in Palm Springs for an early Mother's Day dinner. We had delightful three hour six course dinner in a magical setting with live music and delicious fare. PROS: The hostesses graciously greeted us and sat us a bit earlier than our reservation time. Had a nice table in one of the rooms with a fireplace and a large mirror. The saxophonist played and the sound poured in with great acoustics from the speakers. The amuse bouch had avocado, so I could not eat it, so my mom enjoyed all two. My dad could not eat solid foods due to mouth surgery. The bread course had warm fresh items and silky salty butter. The beet salad, melon salad, and corn soup provided earthy, tart, sweet, and creamy bites and tastes. The varied textures provided a kaleidescope of fresh tastes. The baked brie offered sweet and savory mixes of grilled bread, pear, and date spread! The lemon sorbet palate cleanser provided a balanced experience that did its job. The salmon entree provided an exquisitely pan fried crispy and juicy flaky fillet. The creamy dijon mustard sauce complimented the protein perfectly. The sweet peppers offered a wonderful crunch. The swiss chard added some bitter contrast to the garlic potatoes. The wonderfully bitter Citron crepe provided a nice end to a culinary cruise. Crystal took great photos in the garden. Gilbert was professional and affable. CONS: They asked me so many times for extra drinks. I had to prompt them multiple times to fill the water glasses and refills on tea and diet coke. They charged me full price for mashed potatoes, soup, and sorbet for my dad's meal. I get it. OVERALL: I highly recommend this restaurant for a magical evening meal inspired by Provence, France.”
“Miros is considered by most to be among the top five best restaurants in Palm Springs and with good reason. The atmosphere is warm and comfortably elegant, service is friendly and impeccable. Cuisine is exceptional with comfort food that is refined and clearly farm to table. Expect an absolutely wonderful dining experience every time. Whether dining in the lovely interior, dining room, or the starlit outdoor patio, service is always gracious and attentive. Special thanks and kudos to Alison behind bar for her omnipresent and delightful smile and exceptional service.”
“Bar staff is always friendly and welcoming. Came in at 9pm. They were on it from beginning to end even though it was late. Bar snack menu is awesome. Loved the caesar, mussels and the gnocchi with the creamy pesto. Ordered Marsala for rhe main per the bartenders recommendation which was an excellent choice. Will definitely be back. Thanks guys!”
“Allen at the bar took care of us making is two very well measured and well done cocktails the Tailors Sour & Mazcal speciality based off of what we told him. It’s fantastic here the vibe is elegant and the energy is genuinely fun and happy. The locals make this spot happen and happy to be here and experience this. We shall be back. Thank you”
“The Restaurant at the Surf Club offers a unique dining experience with a stylish atmosphere, creative cuisine, and a fun resort-inspired vibe. The menu features fresh, flavorful dishes made with quality ingredients, while the scenic surroundings add to the experience. With friendly service and a relaxed setting, it’s a great place to enjoy a memorable meal in Palm Springs.”
“"Best Meal in Palm Springs!"🤩 i wanted to shout to the people at the Host Stand; considering their options... 😁Excellent Service, Amazing Ambiance, Fantastic Food, Plus a Chef and Owner Who Care Enough to Talk With Guests and Not Too Proud to Pitch In with Front of House! Great Experience! We Will Be Back! ... Telling Friends and Family!😍”
“While dining at this venue could be a really nice experience, the fact that the staff would not turn on the fans (or misters) because they might blow out the little table candles was unfortunate. It was so warm, and what could have been a pleasant evening in a cute, covered, outdoor setting was much less so. The food was fine and interesting, but I think that a new manager and staff training would help this venue. The staff (in general) seemed very disinterested in the guests. The Panty has potential, and I'm not happy to write a less than stellar review, but I'm just being honest.”
“We had a wonderful dinner the food and the service was wonderful. However, we made reservations for a birthday celebration and we seated at a very small table in the bar instead of a booth. It would've been nice to know that as neither I don't drink and didn't like being right next to bar while I celebrated my birthday. They asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside we said inside, but didn't assume we will be sitting in the bar. We didn't come for happy hour. We came for a celebratory meal for $150. I would've appreciated being sad at a booth other than that fabulous food and great service.”
“Everything was absolutely perfect. Thank you for seating me in a very nice spot for my birthday. Thank you for the birthday ice cream after my meal. The food was delicious. The bread was yummy. The wine was exquisite. The waiter was wonderful. The owners make you feel welcomed and part of the family. I will definitely be returning and this was my third time being here. Thank you 😊 🏆🏆🏆🏆💕💕💕💕☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️”

“For the 2nd time today Starbucks has come through with some of the kindest baristas I've ever met (just coming from Amsterdam, and most Europe, hope that emphasizes my point!) Thank you CALEB. YOU are what it means to blend both professionalism and hospitality, as well as service effectively and what did seem effortless. I hope management realizes it's never the store or the vibe usually that brings people back and establishes the long lost art of being cozy in a coffeeshop is the staff. Caleb shines beyond measure and reflects brand standard excellence that truly as this is twice at a 2nd location even, in Palm Springs, that I've been shocked by the excellence shown by baristas whom at a point I remember being apathetic, unwelcoming, and overworked. Thanks Caleb, and I hope Starbucks recognizes the gem they have on their hands. 10/10

“I came to Del Taco and accidentally placed the wrong order. Laura was incredibly understanding, friendly, and helpful. She quickly fixed our order, and we only had to pay the difference. Her excellent customer service made the experience stress-free. We will definitely be coming back. Great service—thank you, Laura! 😊”
“Came here the other night and they accidentally forgot one item and when I called to fix the situation manager Jose was extremely kind and understanding. When I went to pick up my missing item the young girl at the window and her coworkers were all amazing and very nice to me. Hope their boss sees this and knows they have good workers!!! Bless them all and good luck to everyone on the team”
“First time ordering from here and it was outstanding. Food was hot and soooo delicious when it arrived via delivery. Thank you for a great experience and dinner.”

“I did not eat in the deli I went with someone and tasted the sandwich that they had and it was very very good so from what I've tasted I can rate but otherwise service atmosphere it probably was all excellent but it's the taste that I'm rating 😄”
“I totally enjoyed my recent and a previous dinner occasion at La Perlita. Service was friendly and efficient, from being greeted through departure after enjoying a delicious meal. Portions were just right in size, not too little or too much. I had the pollo asado and was very satisfied.”
“5 star service and killer flavors. Great job!! Weekly stop for sure now”

“We order pizza from Palermo Pizza as most of the regular Italian restaurants were closed for August here in Palm Springs, CA. Madison and his daughter Sammi were great and the pizza was excellent. We shall be returning and hopefully the restaurant will be back serving inside soon! Thank you Matisse and Sammi for your great service.”
“Go now! This place not only has great donuts, but a beautiful kind staff. It is so hard to find places that actually care for their customers. This place checks all the boxes! The woman who I believe is the owner is so nice and caring. She even through in extra donuts so they wouldn't go to waste at the end of the day. They could do what every other company does and toss them or sell them cheaper. Swiss Donuts goes above and beyond on thinking of others.”

“I was invited by friends to attend "Ho" for my Birthday. The atmosphere, talented singers and the food were awesome. If you can enjoy the moment and raucous behavior you will have a good time. I will definitely drive from Orange County to enjoy another event in 2024. So much fun!”
“The atmosphere takes you to a village in Mexico. The food is authentic. Love the nachos. Pleasant wait staff.”

“This is one of the 2 best coffee's in Palm Springs. And I am S-E-R-I-O-U-S about my coffee! Rich flavorful beans - not bitter at all. A small local gem I visit every time I am in town. FABULOUS and friendly. The food is from other local places - and decent - but not fresh made in house. It is really all about the coffee.”
“The Juice in Palm Springs is one of those spots that just gets it right. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and actually tastes as good as it looks.
Everybody has their own experience, and I read a comment about the staff being unfriendly, but sometimes you’ve got to check the fruit of your own spirit before reviewing somebody else’s. 😂 Our experience was great—everyone we dealt with was welcoming, helpful, and genuinely nice.
I went in for a juice and left acting like I’d been making healthy choices all week.
If you’re in Palm Springs and want something refreshing that doesn’t taste like you’re being punished for trying to be healthy, definitely stop by The Juice. Highly recommend!”
“Been here couple times & they have good burgers & potato salad - it says it’s a former Grayhound Bus station so it’s a bit quirky but worth a visit. I don’t know why they insist on posting more than 40 menus on the website from the last 17 years (other than comparison to see inflation lol) wish they highlighted the CURRENT menu a bit more prominently instead of searching thru page after page of history”
“I went to Koffi twice while I was at Palm Springs. My first visit I got something I usually don't get, matcha. I'm not a fan but maybe I never had good matcha before. Turns out, I'm just not a fan. Koffi used their ceremonial matcha, I had it with oatmilk and easy on the sweet. Perhaps my palate isn't refined enough but still tasted like grass to me.
On my second visit, I got my usual iced cold brew, no milk, no sugar. It was excellent! Hints of fruit if you ask me. I like it! 10/10 for the cold brew!
If you go out back they have a nice shady courtyard. It's a quiet and peaceful place to enjoy your drink.
Both times I went the baristas were friendly and helpful. Service was was quick. Will visit again when I'm in town.”
“Love this place! You want a delicious breakfast - grab the Turkey Sausage & Pepper Jack English Muffin with Egg. Sooo tasty! I've never had coffee this delicious before too! Enjoy! You won't regret it! Your taste buds will thank you! Yazam was great at preparing everything plus a smile with service.”
“I ordered a white chocolate mocha and had forgotten to ask for oat milk. The first sip of my first mocha was so exquisite, I just knew it couldn't be alternative milk. I had to ask for a remake and they obliged. I appreciate that so much! The second one was just as good and my tummy is much happier about it as well. The drip was also fantastic that my partner got and I don't tend to like drip 10/10”

“Our 2nd time at Spencer’s, and it certainly won’t be the last. Service is extraordinary, the food exceptional, and the ambiance is wonderful. I highly recommend it. I write for a local paper in Missouri -where I despair of the quality displayed by so many restaurants. No wonder I was eager to get back to Spencer’s on our recent trip to Palm Desert.”
“The service here is very good. I stopped by one time because I was craving some chips and when I walked in I was serviced and the prices here were better than the sellers in the street. I am definitely coming back in here to buy chips and ice cream for a birthday party!!!”
“Definitely recommended! They sat us on the patio, and the atmosphere was great. Our servers were really helpful. We followed their recommendations and boy was that a good idea. The appetizer was cooked to perfection and lightly spiced. The dinner was even better. The spicing built upon the appetizer but a bit richer and more complex. Combined with the drinks, it was an exceptional meal. Each element built on the one before it. We’ll done gang, that was a great experience!”

“Overall we had a positive experience at Sandfish. The food and cocktails were outstanding and service was great. We enjoyed a variety of shared dishes. We dined indoors and were seated right next to the front door. Literally inches from it. This lead to opening and closing and increasing the heat which made the evening a little uncomfortable. The only negative was the charge for water on our bill. We said “still, not sparkling or bottled,” but were not aware each shared “bottle” was $11.00. We had three bottles for a table of 4, so a $33.00 charge was found at the end of the meal. Perhaps our misunderstanding, but would have appreciated better communication. It definitely won't stop us from coming back. Order the Sandfish roll!”

“I love a speakeasy that actually commits to being a speakeasy. The entrance is very unassuming, the vibes on the inside were really cool (a little loud though), and the drinks were made with care. The one I got was described to be similar to a gimlet on the menu (I don’t remember the name of it), it was really delicious.”
“My wife and I recently dined at Desert Moon Palm Springs, and it was an absolutely delicious experience from start to finish.
We started our evening with the calamari, which was cooked perfectly—crispy, flavorful, and excellent. For our main courses, I ordered the pork shank osso buco, and it was outstanding. The meat was incredibly tender and packed with rich flavor. My wife had the Thai Coconut Curry, which was absolutely phenomenal, boasting the perfect balance of spices and vibrant flavors.
Beyond the fantastic food, the atmosphere was great—perfect for a night out—and the service was top-notch. The staff made us feel incredibly welcome and well taken care of throughout the night.
We can't say enough good things about Desert Moon. We will definitely be back, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable meal in Palm Springs!”
“My server, Elizabeth, was a queen and treated me like a princess. They recommended the lemon ricotta pancakes and they did not disappoint. So light and lemony. All in all, I really enjoyed my breakfast and would recommend it to anyone visiting PS. And we need more Elizabeths in this world ❤️”
“While in PS I just had the benefit to experience this quaint jewell in the AM. It was worth every crumb you could imagine from such a simple yet tasteful coffee/bakery place. There's even a salon in inside...go figure. You can have some sweets and get your hair done all in the same spot. The coffee was pure, earthy (organic) and pleasant. The had a genuine pleasantness; I hope they don't change or take this compliment for granted after this rating.
Finally every pastry was beyond outstanding and scrumptious to the palate. I just had my guava/cheese turnover today and the filling was still great. Thank you kindly please don't change. Its hard to find great bakeries that can pride themselves on making tasteful, healthy and clean eating so beneficial”
“My biggest complaint is this hidden oasis took me 3 years to find! I know we're all looking for good, cheap eats, but this was seriously a gold mine. We ordered the burrito bowl (meatless) and the croissant sandwich with chicken instead of bacon (we don't eat pork for ethical reasons), and WOW. The flavor and portion for the price was amazing. And for about $20!!
The staff was SUPER helpful, attentive, and kind as well. We're semi-local (have a home in the desert) and we've added this to our rotation for breakfast spots to come to. We're leaving tonight and I'm just bummed we can't make it back one more time before going home.”
“I doubted an app could pick a restaurant, but it found this place and measured the calories from a photo. The tuna tartar with quail egg had enough protein and tasted good. The restaurant has a clean and modern dining room.”
“The menu is limited but anything we ordered was delicious! Prices are a little high but no more so than any other resort property. Staff was friendly and fun and they all made excellent drinks. You do have to walk up to order but they will deliver to your poolside chairs.
It can get hectic though, especially at peak pool hours on the week end.
On the downside, the open hours are quite short--opening fairly late for breakfast (9am) and closing early as well (7 pm). Had the hours been longer we would have used them more.”
“So great and fun! I’ve had a bunch of the margaritas and they all taste fresh and delicious. Not too sweet and very high quality. The menu changes seasonally and the dishes are ultra flavorful. Definitely a thumbs up. Vibes are nice too. Anthony provided perfect recommendations and was a delight to hang out with.”
