SHORT ANSWER: Yes in many ways…read more LOCATION: on the corner next to FARM, so a fall back if you do not have FARM reservations and hate disappointment of being turned away. 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.

There are a few tables indoors, but it's mostly sat outdoors. They even have a fan for the hot summer nights. Food was amazing. Service was three servers to one table so service was impeccable. I had the espresso martini to start off with, then went for the deviled eggs as an appetizer duck pate and escargot. I then had the steak frites and also had the chicken dinner to try. Everything was amazing and ended the night with the dessert Pavlova. This is a ton out of 10 for me and I will definitely be returning.

Have heard many good things about Bar Cecil and know it can be a challenge to get a reservation…read more There are more tables out on the patio than there are indoors so I get it now. It's a cute space with the greenery, twinkle lights, and plenty of 20th century artwork & photographs. To be honest, I did expect more from the food but I would return to try other menu items. The bread was served piping hot, which is great, but the outer crust was a little too crunchy and hard. The halibut lacked any real flavor while the cacio e pepe had way too much pepper. Naturally the pasta is supposed to have pepper but this was an overwhelming amount and took away from the overall enjoyment of the dish. The mixed salad was fresh and well done though and the deviled eggs were solidly enjoyable. The burger was novelty and juicy. Fries were also fresh and tasted like McDonald's to me (which is a good thing by the way!!). I tried the Garden of the Gods which is a newer gin cocktail on the menu and it was rather refreshing. Of course we had to give the $50 martini a try and it was a kick alright. Turns out, if you order it on 10 occasions then you get your name on a plaque. For $50 x 10 I'd sure hope so! To end the night we finished with a yummy pavlova. Nothing like a little fruit, merengue, and sugar all together. Bar Cecil sent me on a deep dive of Anna Pavlova after that (if you know, you know). While we had higher expectations for the food, this is a cute, trendy place and I'd say, very Palm Springs.

While researching Julian staples to visit/try, I came across this restaurant and was eager to try…read morebased on the "farm-to-table" aspect and not going to lie, the food looked absolutely delicious and amazing. We were not disappointed at all. Upon arriving, there was a musician playing, and they did seat us off to the right so we could not see but could hear still. There is outdoor and indoor seating, but at the time we came it appeared that the outdoor was reserved for an event. We happily sat inside! Having met Jeremy's parents earlier in the day who also recommended his restaurant, and they were just lovely, we had hoped to possibly meet Jeremy too. I wanted to try everything, but we opt on getting a few dishes to share. Our son ordered the filet mignon and they were able to substitute mashed potatoes for fries. Amazing!! The mac & brisket appetizer appeared to be the highlight and specialty and we just had to order it. Every bite was cheeesy and delicious with the brisket very moist. We couldn't go without ordering the Brussels sprouts and it had a twist with ponzu sauce and pineapple. Definitely a different take and I thoroughly enjoyed the taste. Every bite was foodgasmic and I highly recommend!!! I knew coming here that some Yelpers have experienced wavering in quality, so glad we did not experience that at all. As of the date that we came, we understood that the restaurant had been listed for sale, not sure if Jeremy sold it yet or not. I hope not, we plan on coming back this summer!

The restaurant provides a lovely, classy ambiance that is ideal for a date night, family dinner, or special occasion. They serve a wide variety of foods, including steaks, seafood, sushi, appetizers, and desserts. The presentation is stunning, and the overall eating experience feels more sophisticated than your normal casino restaurant. I particularly appreciate the atmosphere here--you can dine indoors or on the outdoor patio, which is encircled by palm trees and a courtyard. It's a fantastic spot to relax, eat a decent dinner, and get away from the hustle and bustle of Fantasy Springs Casino.

Apparently, the restaurant is owned by two cousins, their wives, and they pour their hearts into every dish. Upon arrival, the restaurant was bustling with locals in a causal setting, indicating that the food is truly exceptional. We had a 10-minute wait, but it flew by as we eagerly perused the menu. Our server, one of the owners' daughters, was incredibly friendly and attentive. The food was simply delicious. The portions were generous, and the flavors were bursting with authentic Mexican taste. There's ample parking available in the lot in front of the restaurant, making it convenient for customers. If I find myself craving Mexican food again during my next visit to Palm Springs, Los Primos will definitely be my go-to spot.

Our party of four had an absolutely amazing culinary adventure at T&T innovation kitchen last…read moreSaturday evening! 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!

The BLTA was exactly what you want--crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, creamy avocado, all put together on toasted bread, and paired perfectly with seasoned fries. Now the standout: the German pancake. Just a heads up--it takes about 15-20 minutes to come out, but it's 100% worth the wait. It's served hot, puffed up, and finished with powdered sugar and lemon. Light, slightly crisp on the edges, and soft in the middle--really well done. Overall, great food, great service, and a relaxed vibe. Definitely a place I'd come back to
