    Pano shot of Bellatrix dining room with bar in the back of pic. Great Wall of Wine!
    Mitch M.

    After almost 10 years of living here in Palm Springs area, we found Bellatrix for dinner!! Food is superb,service is outstanding!! The dining room has a relaxed mood. However we were seated next to 2 large parties who shared their conversations with the entire dining room. Looked in the bar on our way out. Our server told us that when busy, the bar gets louder than the dining room. Ran into the restaurant's manager and he invited us to come back for their Italian night next month and said they offer special wine lunches and dinners! Bellatrix is a great shelter from the wind on the north side of I-10!!! And last night it was blowing hard! Four thumbs up!!

    Nice restaurant facing a beautiful golf course. Service was quick and easy. Food was excellent. Great spot to grab food before teeing off.

    Foam margarita, dinner salad.

    OMG it was so good. Beautiful restaurant with views of the golf course and mountains. We had the prime rib, three corse meal. But I forgot to take a picture of the food. Oh well, You've seen prime rib with mashed potatoes and green beans before. And a cappuccino and tiramisu for dessert. It was delicious, I'll be back.

    We ordered a beets salad, three appetizers and were full. Service was excellent. The view, breathtaking

    This was our first visit to Bellatrix, and it definitely won't be our last. We attended a special "Tequila Dinner" which featured a special paired menu with various tequila cocktails. SERVICE: Excellent! The entire staff were on their game, from the hostesses to the servers, busboys, and management. Everyone was super friendly and went out of their way to accommodate guests' questions and desires. FOOD & DRINK: The "Tequila Dinner" featured a special paired menu with various tequila cocktails for $100/person, all inclusive (tax and gratuity). We had: * 1st course was a California Chile Rubbed Grilled Octopus with fingerling potatoes, paired with an Oregano and Sea Foam Margarita. The octopus was grilled perfectly, and the sauce was amazing. The margarita was very interesting and quite refreshing. * 2nd course was a Roasted Duck Breast with Mango Salsa, served over black squid ink rice, paired with a Jalapeño Grilled Mango Sipper. The slice of duck breast was one of the best we've ever had: perfectly prepared and went so well with the mango salsa. I love duck, but am not a fan of Duck a l'Orange. However, this mango salsa was absolutely wonderful, especially with the jalapeño mango tequila cocktail. * 3rd course was a palate cleanser: A Prickly Pear Granita, which was quite refreshing and could have almost stood on its own as a lite, semi-sweet dessert. * 4th course was a Pan-Seared Rabbit Quarter with cherry tomato compote and lima bean puree, paired with an Extra Añejo Old Fashioned. I do enjoy rabbit, and this was prepared well. They paired it with an Old Fashioned using extra añejo tequila instead of bourbon. It was a crowd pleaser. * Dessert was a Tres Agaves Añejo Cinnamon-Caramel Frappé, which was like liquid heaven. A lite milk shake consistency with just a touch of tequila...really nice. After dinner, Chef Luis came out and introduce himself and discussed the evening's menu and his background, especially his love for seafood and game meats and how he liked to focus his specials on these cuisines. They also announced that they would be continuing their Wednesday Wine Lunches, probably in the fall. We'll definitely be looking into those. The restaurant is located at The Classic Club Golf Course and offers a large bar area and plenty of indoor and terrace dining areas. It's a beautiful facility, looking like a grand Tuscan Villa, and has both valet and self-parking. Hours are limited, but definitely worth checking out.: Lunch: Every Day, 11am - 3pm Wine Bar Menu: Thursday - Saturday 3pm - 8pm Wine Bar Drink Specials: Thursday - Saturday 3pm - 5pm Dinner: Thursday - Saturday, 5pm to 8pm

    Went here before the first show at Acrisure arena. Food was outstanding. The service was awesome except the part where one of the younger guys helping run food brought another tables food to our table. We knew it wasn't ours so it didn't really cause any problems other than a laugh by us and the table next to us. Server was awesome. There were 8 of us (4 couples) and she split up our checks without even asking. Made it super easy to pay and head to the show. Will be back again for sure. Try the short rib! It was epic.

    One of the best things going for Bellatrix is the outdoor seating and beautiful view of the golf course and lake. I know I spotted a great blue Herron in the mix of mallards, and there is other fauna roaming around. I've tried a few things in the past, but what wowed me the most was the side of fruit. Fresh, crisp cold, strawberries, pineapple, melons, and the largest blueberries I've ever seen! I was literally shocked when I saw how beautiful they looked; the taste matched the look! The chef is picking out some nice produce! I'm not a fan of the montecristo sandwich. I'd expect more meat. I ordered it "all turkey" so maybe they didn't give me anything extra to offset the missing ham. The bread was squishy and flavorful, especially with some strawberry jam. The service is every bit five stars! You can be confident you will be well cared for at Bellatrix.

Ordered the New York style hot pastrami on rye with coleslaw and a Dr. Brown's Cream Soda. The pastrami was the highlight. Piled high, tender, and full of that classic deli flavor with just the right amount of richness. The rye bread held everything together well and had a nice bite to it. It's the kind of sandwich you have to take a second to look at before figuring out how to eat it. The coleslaw was fresh and crisp, a good balance to the sandwich, and the cream soda was cold and refreshing. Also ordered a slice of pistachio cake to go. Absolutely delicious. The place has that old school deli feel, busy but in a good way, and full of character. Service was friendly and efficient even with the crowd. Definitely a spot worth stopping at if you're in Palm Desert and want a proper deli sandwich.

The everything bagel was perfectly acceptable, not too "bready." So: service good, pastrami good, and bagel good. Everything good about a deli is covered.

Back home in Fenwick, DE, there used to be a small shop near her house that served homemade ice cream from a local dairy farm it was excellent. One of our favorites there was butter brickle, a rich, creamy ice cream with pieces of toffee mixed in. At Handel's, they offer a great deal where you can get four flavors in one container for around $8, and the scoops are very generous. We really liked the salted caramel, but they have close to 30 flavors, so there's definitely something for everyone. Seating is limited to just a few tables outside, and the line can get pretty long. On warmer days, you might want to keep the AC running in the car so your ice cream doesn't melt too quickly if you're taking it to go. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Palm Springs hopefully soon.

Every single bite was the kind of good that makes you close your eyes mid-chew and ignore whoever's talking to you. But let's discuss the real star: the frosting!!! I was fully prepared for standard whipped cream or buttercream vibes, and instead got this cloud-like, silky situation that tasted rich but somehow light enough to justify eating an entire cupcake without emotional consequences.
