    Hearts of Palm Cakes
    Bill S.

    The Mrs. and I had dinner at the 29 Palms Inn last night before heading out to a stargazing event. Earlier in the day the Mrs. called and made a reservation for 6:30, but since we were staying at the Campbell House down the road, we decided to show up early for drinks. We arrived around 5:30 and the restaurant wasn't busy and the bar was empty. We found a seat at the far end of the bar in the corner. It was a great spot to people watch. Chris was behind the bar. I ordered my usual Maker's Mark Manhattan and the Mrs. ordered her usual Bombay Sapphire Martini. Chris told us that he usually waits tables and isn't usually behind the bar. For someone who isn't regally behind the bar he makes a pretty good Manhattan and the Mrs. liked her Martini. Other patrons showed up around 6 and the bar was full and the restaurant was buzzing. We decided to park ourselves at the bar for the rest of the evening rather than get a table. If you're looking for a place that is vegan and gluten free friendly then the 29 Palms in restaurant is the place to go. If you're an omnivore you won't starve. We ordered two vegetable based options for dinner. The first was the Hearts of Palm Cakes which are composed of Hearts of Palm, panko, red bell pepper, red & green onion then deep fried and served with a vegan Cajun remoulade. The flavor profile was better than I expected, the remoulade was great and they were shaped like hearts. For our main we chose the evenings pasta special which was linguine tossed in a lemon caper cream sauce mixed with zucchini. It was really flavorful and light. Chris was able to split the portion on separate plates. From what we can tell from what our fellow diners were ordering, the portion sizes are huge and big enough for two to three people to share. The restaurant isn't that big. There are maybe eight tables inside and three or four outside. The outdoor dining area is on the pool deck. I have to admit it looks pretty awkward trying to eat while people are frolicking in the pool. We saw a lot of buns and they weren't on a burger. The 29 Palms Inn Restaurant says its the most popular place in town. Based upon the great service we received from Chris, the great food and atmosphere, I have no doubt it is.

    Green curry salmon

    I go here probably once a month and I'm a creature of habit so I always order the same thing...the green curry salmon. I ALWAYS need to put salt and pepper on my food NO MATTER where I eat but last night, my salmon curry was OUT OF THIS WORLD!....no seasoning required. I'm talking 10 out of 10!! Highly recommend! It's pricy but worth every penny and the portions are HUGE! I have leftovers for lunch and dinner tonight!

    Coolest place around. Food, service, music, ambience. It's history and contemporary in every way. And it's beautiful.

    I love the hidden restaurant and the amazing service! Julie took good care of us and made sure that our drinks were always available. My kids loved the Shirley temples and the food was even better! The golden girl drink was delicious and very peachy flavored which was perfect! Mojito was crisp, and the Heidi's Brew was perfect to finish off my meal here! My kids had the kids pizza and they loved it! We shared a few appetizers and my boys loved the fried calamari, while my husband and I loved the hearts of Palms cakes, the inn's famous sautéed mushrooms reminded us of escargot from Paris, and the sourdough pizza was delicious! Highly recommend you go here but make reservations.

    Amazing food and service. Such a gem in a place where there's not a lot of full service options. Highly recommend.

This place is located within the convenience store; we ordered around 6:40p and the meal was ready within 20 mins. I believe their hours are 3:00p-7:45p, so they are open to taking orders close to closing, which is nice! We ordered the red beans and rice, the fried okra, the FAL Signature Seafood Boil, and the shrimp boil... and wow, every dish was absolutely delicious. The red beans and rice were perfectly seasoned and comforting, the fried okra was crispy without being greasy, and both seafood boils were packed with flavor and generous portions. The shrimp were juicy, the seasoning was spot on, and the whole boil had that perfect balance of spice and richness that you hope for but don't always get. On top of the incredible food, the lady who owns the restaurant is wonderfully warm and welcoming. She made us feel right at home and clearly cares about her customers and her food. We feel completely satisfied and already planning what we'll try next time. If you're craving seafood done right, this place is a must. Also, easy on the wallet!!! Highly recommend!

    I cannot get over how amazingly tender this grilled octopus was. As a pescatarian I'm always on the…read morehunt for a delicious seafood restaurant that doesn't break the bank. After a little bit of research, I discovered this beautiful gem, and I was able to make reservations by calling the restaurant directly. Once we arrived, we were greeted and seated right away. Our waiter Thomas was so incredibly sweet and attentive. We decided to share a crabcake appetizer along with octopus and scallops as our main dish. I've tried mini grilled octopuses before in Southern California and never have. I had one so tender as this one. The octopus was huge and so flavorful. Most importantly it was so tender and not chewy at all. Everything we ordered was fantastic and cooked to perfection.

    Another great restaurant find in the Coachella Valley, this time in Palm Desert. We discovered…read moreOceana Restaurant on the Greater Palm Springs Restaurant Week website -- the Pulpo Chicharrones caught our eye -- so we decided to check it out. Thank goodness we did. Our group started out with the above mentioned Pulpo Chicharrones. Crispy Octopus bites served with fresh pico de gallo, guacamole, and flour tortilla chips.The octopus had a charred crispy exterior that gave way to a buttery-tender interior. None of the rubbery texture that so often turns people off. For entrees, we selected the Whole Fried Huachinango (Red Snapper), 7 Oceanas (think "Spanish Chioppino"), and Pan Seared Halibut which was the special of the day. The halibut special featured a very generous pan seared filet on a bed of white wine risotto with a sesame seed veloute and asparagus. The 7 Oceanas consisted of perfectly cooked octopus, white fish, clams, mussels, shrimp, salmon, and scallop in a rich broth with tomato, onion, garlic, smoked paprika, oregano, and guajillo peppers. Served with housemade telera bread sticks to sop up the amazing broth. The snapper was deep fried to perfection leaving the skin super crispy and fleah moist and flaky. Drizzled with an adobo sauce and served with grilled sliced lemons, chayote squash and baby potatoes. Our only complaint was the snapper was not true red snapper as advertised, but rather porgy (we think). Red snapper is one of the most substituted fish and very few people in the world could tell them apart. My partner Ernie is a connoisseur, and he can. The dish was still excellent, we just wish it wasn't advertised as Huachinango. This hidden gem delivered fresh seafood, tasty cocktails with a nod to tequila and mezcal drinks crafted by owner Marco Castellanos, and friendly attentive service from Gina.
