Trattoria Tiramisu is a welcome treat in the great mall culture of California. If this restaurant was in a backstreet in Rome, the food, wine list and service would compare favorably. Many of the staff seem to be from Sicily and move back to Italy for the summer when the restaurant closes for the summer. The pasta is homemade and... More

Nice restaurant and the service was fine but the food was very bland. I brought a business associate and he was disappointed as well. The restaurant was crowded so they must have happy customers but probably not a return visit in my plans.

Cozy, friendly place staffed by professional waiters who know the menu. Nice selections for lunch and dinner, with several specials nightly. Seafood specials are particularly good and portions are adequate. Small bar with spirits and satisfactory wine list reasonably priced. Corkage is allowed for a fee. The salads fresh and different and other appetizers are tasty, especially the burrata and... More

The Von's Mall location does not do justice to this delightful Italian Trattoria. Though very busy, with our table clearing slowly, we were offered Sicilian wine tasters while we waited. Delightful hostess kept us entertained while the boys sipped Merlot and the ladies Sicilian white. We ordered the same brand's Cabernet Sauvignon and were pleased - smooth, flavourful, but not...

Hey, I'm an east coast guy and I know Italian. It ain't at the "chains". Trattoria Tiramisu is very good. Small, intimate, great food, great staff, and a terrific wine list. OK ... you've got to order the veal chop and you have to have the signature tiramisu for dessert. Do it. To heck with the calories!

A new experience in Palm Desert for us and our two friends. This is a small restaurant, located in a strip mall on Highway 111, with a patio, separated from the parking lot with a perimeter of potted greenery. The owners and staff are seasoned pros who know their business. The guest is welcomed like one of the family. The... More

Went here in early January, 2013 to celebrate a birthday. Wonderful small intimate restaurant run by a family. We arrived earlier than our reservation and although the restaurant was full, they accomodated us as soon as was possible. The food was authentic Italian. Hubby had veal and I had lamb, both of which were excellent. Portion sizes were just right.... More

I am a former Chef at some renowned restaurants and love this place for the kichen....the chef owner is really good, unpretentious but superbly crafted food, i come here regularly through the winter and have never had a disapointing meal. Service is excellent, room is charming and the owners wife keeps a sharp eye on things from the reception. Expect... More

We have been several times to this restaurant and truly never been disappointed. It has become one of our go to restaurants in the desert for reliable quality, gracious hosts and very comfortable atmosphere. Notwithstanding its location in a food store anchored strip shopping center, this restaurant is worth a try. Last night I ordered the rack of lamb and... More
