- JJudyPalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •27 reviews5.0Dined todayDinner was wonderful. Had happy hour menu items and they were perfect size for a light meal. Only complaint was we were charged for extra chips to go with our starter guacamole. Ridiculous as we were only given chips to begin with.More infoSi BonPrice: Moderate• Bistro• Rancho Mirage•4.8
- KKateSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoA terrific Valentines's day menu with many French cuisine options along with a variety of food choices. The service (Jose) was 5-star and he food, the presentation and the timeliness of service were stellar. We had a wonderful table in the main dining area that enhanced an already-wonderful experience. Delicious and perfectly prepared dishes. Highly recommended!More infoCafé Des Beaux-ArtsPrice: Expensive• French• Palm Desert•4.7
- CCarolyn IzuVIPPalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •63 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe had only had breakfast and lunch here before but heard it was really great for dinner. We had the halibut special and the Sandabs - both delicious - my husband really loved the halibut! The live music was also very nice. We sat inside because it was windy/cold on the patio - so the ambience wasn’t a five star like I would’ve given the patio. And the carrot cake is probably the best we’ve ever had.More infoThe Fix On El PaseoPrice: Expensive• Bistro• Palm Desert•4.5
- RRichardVIPPalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •73 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoLoved the restaurant, the food and the service. Prices, especially given the fact it was Valentine's Day, were very reasonable. They kept to the original menu with a few added specials which was refreshing. Most places go to a restricted menu with elevated prices. My only negative comment concern how they do or don't inform diners of certain prices. Server asks if you'd like bread & butter. Your response is "Sure" because it's complimentary but not here. It's a $5.00 up charge. Reasonable, yes, but totally unexpected. All menu items are reasonable priced and well prepared. They have a nice wine list, heavy on French wines (figures) but at very competitive prices. All in all I'd say this is a dining delight that we'll come back to again and again all the while remembering there's no free breand and butter.More infoFrench Rotisserie CafePrice: Moderate• French• Palm Desert•4.7
