Best Seasonal Restaurants in Indian Wells

We enjoyed a nice Friday afternoon lunch out on the patio. Service was outstanding! Waters and cocktails arrived promptly. The clam chowder was very good. Fish and chips were also great. I had the Cobb salad; I always ask for it to be tossed and chopped, which they did perfectly! An enjoyable time was had by all!

Looking for a high grade happy hour?? Try Eddie V's! Word of mouth lead us here for the first time, and since they filled up on a Tuesday night, it was clear that their reputation was sterling. It was much better than we had hoped. The happy hour menu is really impressive and it's like having a tasting sampler of some of the restaurant's best dishes. They offer salads, soups, seafood, and quality meats all in dishes for two....like two filet sliders, two oysters Rockefeller, etc. We started with the jumbo crab cake and it was the largest and finest crab cake we have ever had anywhere! No fillers....just a huge amount of fresh crab meat with a delicious sauce built in. One order feeds two, unless you just can't help yourself. Then we had African lobster bites that were crunchy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside; five of them were served like popsicles and we asked for melted butter to go with them (do that!). Fantastic! The next dish we don't recommend as strongly: two oysters prepared Rockefeller style, but the oysters were much too small to be satisfying and they were covered with an overbearing crunchy panko covering which overwhelmed what should have been the oyster flavor. Next came filet sliders, medium rare and absolutely delicious...excellent beef and super tender. Then the big surprise were lamb "popsicles". But these were really much more, a full one-bone lamb chop, with excuisite flavor. Wow! Dessert was excellent also, a Meyer Lemon Torte with toasted meringue and fresh fruit accents. Rich, creamy, but not overbearing. Service was exceptional: thank you so much Priscilla! And the General Manager, Rudy, came by to have a nice chat about this restaurant as well as their place in La Hoya, Southern California. What a great find! The great food and drinks were not inexpensive but well worth the cost. And the atmosphere is very classy. Enjoy!

Absolutely wonderful We had the best experience our waiter a delight and very accommodating to special requests Food soo good The ambience poolside so relaxing and beautiful etc would recommend without hesitations

Excellent hotel buffet. High quality items like birria beef, chile verde and crème brûlée French toast. Lots of variety of fruits, juices and pastries. All fresh and tasty. My family and I saw the buffet as one highlight of our vacation to Grand Hyatt Indian Wells. Highly recommend.

Great service! We sat outside. Favorites were the tuna ahi salad and chicken sandwich with brie.
