My wife and I had a wonderful 4 course tasting menu at So.Pa's Pride weekend dinner. The kitchen here is one of the most elevated in Palm Springs. Dishes are creative without being gimmicky and the execution is flawless. Our meal had paired wine and cocktails, all excellent. The General Manager is a gem and the waitstaff friendly but very professional. The space is magical on a fall and winter evening. We have had memorable meals at So.Pa previously and will be back again. Thank you to the team.
