    849 is my go to spot in Palm Springs. The service is always on point, the food is delicious, and the cocktails are perfectly poured. I am vegetarian and enjoy the creative and tasty options available. I have to give an added shout out to the management who replaced a mistakenly discarded gift card. The customer service was top notch. Definitely add 849 to your dance card when youre in Palm Springs! You wont regret it!

    Breakfast at Spencer’s has, for many years, been an all-time favorite treat. The staff, and especially the floor manager Lillian, are the friendliest and most dedicated group of servers anywhere in Palm Springs. The food is consistently, perfectly prepared and quickly arrives after ordering. Dining on the upper patio is a morning treat as the sun filters through and keeps it warm on crisp, winter mornings.
