Old school, staff very knowledgeable. Great experience, Tom the waiter was willing to spend time with us discussing the history of this restaurant. Showed us how to view the grounds and just enjoy this great place in history.

Eating out for us is an experience on many levels. Not just food, but the vibe of the room and experience make an evening enjoyable or not. This is an old school classic. You have to come here, even for some cocktails and step back in time when places like this were part of pop culture in the area. Our... More

This restaurant was praised to me as "the" place to visit for a fine dining experience in Palm Springs. The ambiente couldn't be nicer. The hotel in which the restaurant is located is an old-Hollywood gem with a storied history and the restaurant has a lot of quaint charm. The receptionist was amazing when we arrived too early, before the... More

Good inexpensive Valet Parking & excellent table service, spoiled by the food. With great expectations of a wonderful brunch buffet 4 of us set out for an adventure most folk on here seem to rate as near perfect. No way Jose....no buffet....order a la carte off a limited menu. The wife had seafood crepes. Seemed to be frozen [not fresh]... More

If you were intrigued by the Rat Pack, you'll love this place. A throw back to the Sinatra days. Attentive, friendly and professional staff that will be more than happy to assist you in telling what's best on the menu, drinks, etc. All their recommendations were spot on! Menu is simple, not fussy, and food is excellent with delicious salads... More

So, we-- my two sons and I (ages 12 and 15) and a friend from LA and her kids--decided to spend Easter in Palm Springs and wanted to find a restaurant that might really be a "wow" experience for us. This was not exactly the spot we should have chosen. And while the hotel entrance and valet pull up was... More

I came here with some locals for the Sunday afternoon music jam. the service was great, the Inn is beautiful, and it was so much fun just to watch the people that were hanging out there. People of all ages and backgrounds were there, and the place was packed-better get there early! Very generous drinks. A perfect way to spend... More
