    Place is amazing after one has hiked in 99 degrees weather at Anza State Park lol There was no food nearby as we kinda drove up along the coast of Salton for the hell of it. So def convenient. It's connected to the market as well which is nice and handy and they have all sorts of things that one might need for a pit stop. Got the classic Avo Cheeseburger and Mushroom Swiss with added avo. It wasn't bad, just wish the buns were toasted a bit more. The avo portions was huge so I do like that. Staff was also very prompt and nice! Their fries were thick cut so I wasn't too much a fan of those. I also really liked that they had the large glass bottle cokes too!! I feel they are rare to come by lol Great spot for fuel! Lol Since In N Out is further out.

    Stopped in here to get gas, decided to try them out I've seen them before while coming back from our weekends In Glamis. My husband asked for a munedo and it was missing the corn . It was only half way full . I ordered a large one and they looks like I got a child's. Although it was tasty it's missing the corn and the large portion that you pay for. Undecided if I order her again.

    Horrible service, they gave me this on a $10.25 carne asada fries. No guacamole just 4 pieces of avocado. Unacceptable do NOT COME!!!!

    Red Chilaquiles & a Mexican Coke
    Emmanuel T.

    We've been here before & the last time I had the machaca burrito that was soo good but decided on the chilaquiles which were also delicious with refried beans & a fried egg couldn't go wrong with that! The workers were friendly & attentive to anything else may have needed when dropping off the food at our table.

    Steak Salad
    Kristina G.

    When you live in the middle of no where your limited on where you can go for fast food. I have been putting off reviewing this place because it's decent. I normally get the chicken salad but change it up with the fried chicken plate sometimes. Today I decided to try the steak salad and let's just say I will never order it again. It's bad enough that usually the lettuce is sitting in water that has to be drained off especially if you're not going to eat it right away. As per usual I had to drain off the water but my biggest issue is the amount of fat and gristle they put on my salad. Clumps of fat mixed in with the salad is something I'm just not down with. Also it is just the pre-bagged iceberg mix. I'm not sure if they just have it floating in water and scoop it out and throw it strait in the container or what but be prepared to add paper towels or napkins to the container no matter which salad you choose and flip to drain, as well as there will be some turned lettuce you will need to pick out.

    Chilaquiles plate
    Marisa T.

    First time here this morning, great Chilaquiles plate, they were so good. The beans & eggs on the side were good too. My husband got a machaca burrito & said it was good as well, although smaller than most breakfast burritos. It's out of the way for us, but when in the area, I would definitely go back.

    Bacon Avocado Cheeseburger with fries!
    Omar R.

    Getting that late night craving, I decided to give Chelo's Burger a try. I got there at 8:40 PM and I did not realized that they closed at 9PM. Even though it was almost closing time, the employees still kept a smile and took my order and cooked it fresh and quick! My first time being here, I chose their Bacon Avocado Cheeseburger with fries. It came with bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato, onions, thousand island dressin, cheese and one beef patty. Man, the burger was good and juicy! I enjoyed every bite of it! Good place to grab a nice and juicy burger. Hopefully ill be back soon to try more of their items on the menu!

    Huevos ranchero
    Chuck F.

    Don't let its location fool you. I have eaten here several times and have not been disappointed. The country fried steak breakfast and the huevos ranchero are legit. The staff is nice and the service is quick.

FACILITY: Small, limited seating indoors with very nice, fun, outdoor seating areas. Love this place. MENU: Simple, easy to understand, great photos online if you have any questions. FOOD PREP: Very well done, like professional in just how it looks. FOOD QUALITY: Professional in how it also tastes... Watermelon Gazpacho was perfect with drinks prior to main. LIBATIONS: drinks and bartender were excellent, fun, and the photo print was very cool. WAITSTAFF: just so nice, and fun making the experience all that much better. We have been enjoying The Plaza Theater so spending a little more time in Palm Springs and this will be one of our favorites places to relax prior to an event. OVERALL VALUE: Good, but it is Palm Springs, outdoors, great locations, classy.. no, not inexpensive but well worth it. TIP: I'd say be nice, be patient, and you will get a table. Don't be an angry rude touron, we don't need that vibe and we see some of that in PS.. You can try for reservations, not sure if they take off season.

We were immediately whisked away into a night of unrivaled service and culinary perfection. Tucked away in one of Palm Springs' most charming shopping plazas, this meal was easily the highlight of my week. The menu is brilliantly varied, but a few dishes truly stole the show. The grilled artichoke is a classic, but their execution of it is completely elite. The Halibut main was a revelation--hands down the best I've ever tasted. And you must save room for dessert because the Berries and Cream was worth every single bite. Absolutely delectable. Top it all off with A+++ service from a flawless staff, and this place is worth every bit of the hype.

    Bar Cecil was one of the places I was most excited to try during our Palm Springs trip, and it…read moredefinitely lived up to the hype. Reservations are notoriously hard to get, but we got lucky with a last-minute walk-in and were seated after 15-20 min wait. There's plenty of parking, and if you do have to wait, they have a cute little covered outdoor seating area with chairs and tables where you can relax. We sat on the patio, which was surprisingly cool and comfortable, so don't let the Palm Springs heat scare you away. The whole restaurant has such a sexy, colorful, candlelit vibe that somehow feels both lively and intimate. We kept the drinks simple and ordered Hugo Spritzes, which were refreshing and perfectly made for a hot afternoon. What we ordered: * Caramelized Onion Tart (Puff pastry, chive, Comté) - This was recommended by our server and I can see why. It reminded me of French onion soup wrapped in a flaky puff pastry. Rich, savory, and definitely shareable since it is a bit on the heavier side. * Red Thai Curry Mussels (PEI mussels, ginger, garlic, lemongrass, red chile, coconut milk) - WOW. This was hands down my favorite dish. The broth was incredible, rich and packed with flavor without feeling too heavy. I was worried the lemongrass might overpower everything, but it was perfectly balanced. It comes with toasted bread and trust me, you'll want every last drop of that broth. I'd honestly come back just for this dish. * Steak Frites - The steak was cooked perfectly medium and was delicious. The fries were crispy and seasoned well, making it a classic done right. * Broccolini - Simple but really good with a nice char that added great flavor. Overall, we had a great experience. The atmosphere is one of the best parts..beautiful, moody, and full of personality..but the food absolutely held its own. Service was friendly, the patio was comfortable, and now I completely understand why it's one of Palm Springs' hardest reservations to get. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

When we checked in at the restaurant, they proceeded to walk us theough the restaurant, back past the dishwashing area and kitchen, into a small private dining room with an open kitchen. It's a very casual, unpretentious space, which was one of the things that I liked the most about it. We were greeted immediately and were offered a wine and cocktail list. We were also given the evening's menu, which consisted of six courses and an optional 7th, for an extra supplemental fee. We opted to partake in this, not wanting to miss out on any of the offered dishes! On a sidenote, the menu changes weekly, based on seasonal produce, fresh fish, etc. I should definitely mention that I have quite a few food allergies, so I asked to speak directly with the chef, away from our table to go over my dietary restrictions with him. Pleasantly, he didn't bat an eye and assured me that I would have as full an experience as everyone else, just with some modifications. I greatly appreciated this! Course after course after course was perfection and all four of us were incredibly impressed with all of the dishes that were served to us. And as our servers brought each plate, the chef would then approach our table and describe each dish. The attention to detail was not lost on us, nor was the personal approach that this restaurant strives for and achieves. For our final dessert course, the head pastry chef came and spoke to us about her creations, thus adding to the personal touch. And to thank us for dining at T&T, we were each presented with a goodie bag at the end of our meal, containing a mini chocolate loaf cake and a canister of their house-made and absolutely delicious, caramel corn! Before leaving, we spoke once more with the chef and he told us that the restaurant is only open Friday and Saturday evenings and he tries to cap the number of diners at 30 per night, which enables him to have a personal connection with each table. Considering the fact that we had called for a reservation only the day before, we felt very fortunate to have gotten in at the last minute. If you are looking for a very unique dining experience, then I highly recommend T&T Innovation Kitchen! Based on our experience, it was a three hour dinner and though quite pricey, we felt that it was very worth it!
