    Lemongrass potstickers

    Our 19th hole was here after a round of golf at PGA West Pete Dye Stadium course. Choice of indoor or outdoor seating. We chose indoors. Ordered - * I had the candied bacon beef hot dog with sweet potato fries - I requested my hot dog be butterflied which the kitchen complied. The bacon strips were cut into pieces and lathered onto the bun. I highly recommend this item. * hubby had bowl of chili. He liked. * sis had the lemongrass pot stickers. Small appetizer which she liked. * BIL had the giant pretzel. He doesn't drink beer but this would be great with a glass of ice cold beer. Wide variety of appetizers, sandwiches, and heavier plated food. Located onsite. Friendly service.

    We enjoyed a delicious lunch today at Ernie's Bar & Grill in PGA West at the Nicklaus Stadium course in La Quinta. It was a very busy day at the course there was a tournament but that didn't slow down the excellent service and fantastic food. The outdoor patio is unbelievable with views of the Nicklaus 18th green and the Palmer 9th green. We ordered fish and chips, a Patty Melt and Ernie's Cobb salad. Jose was our friendly professional waiter he was super. I'm not a member here wish I was, it's all 5 star

    Patio dining area by Nicklaus Tournament course overlooking 9th & 18th.

    Go for the golf course view! Breakfast is better than lunch, both in terms of value and quality. We have a vacation home within walking distance and love the ambiance but find the food (lunch) to be mid, and breakfast is mid-fine. Drinks are pricy.

    We love the setting at Ernie's which overlooks the PGA West golf course. Service is always great at the bar, but not so much elsewhere. We usually have to request flatware or plates. The Rueben is killer and I tried the pizza today. It's pretty good, crispy crust and spicy. Not as good as Billy Q's but the setting compensates for that!

We didn't have reservations and requested to be seated inside. There was a little awkward first impression with the hostess who told us that there was only one inside table left in the back corner. She didn't come across very friendly when we asked if we could see it before deciding if we wanted to sit there or not. I understand they were busy but she was a bit short with us. We were seated in Isabel's section and she more than made up for it. What a gem! She was so friendly and very nice. She made sure to check on us often and we had a lovely time at your restaurant because of her. We are giving this review 5 stars because of Isabel. The seared ahi tuna salad and the ahi tuna nachos were both delicious. The fish was fresh and so very tender with a light dressing. The pulled pork tacos were good too. The brownie dessert was a bit dry though.

    I rarely leave reviews, but this experience was bad enough that I feel obligated to warn others…read more My fiancé ordered a Cobb salad, which should be one of the safest, most straightforward items on any menu. Instead, she bit into a sharp chicken bone hidden in the salad--something that absolutely should never happen. This wasn't a small, soft fragment either; it was sharp enough to cause immediate, severe pain and pierced her gums. This is not just a minor oversight--it's a major failure in basic food safety and kitchen preparation. There is no excuse for serving food in this condition, especially something as simple as a salad. We trusted this restaurant to provide a safe meal, and that trust was completely broken. What makes this even worse is that the situation could have been far more dangerous. If swallowed, this could have led to choking or internal injury. No customer should ever have to worry about that when ordering a salad. I strongly urge the restaurant to take a hard look at their food prep standards and quality control, because this is unacceptable. Until then, I cannot recommend this place to anyone.

Everything about Big Rock Pub is great. The visuals immediately capture you as you walk in, creating a welcoming atmosphere from the start. The service staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, and the drinks made by the bartender were excellent. The food did not disappoint either. We started with the garlic parmesan wings, which were incredibly flavorful and a great way to begin the meal. Next, we had the Caesar salad and the BBQ chicken pizza. The Caesar salad portion was huge, easily enough for two people and probably even enough to share among four. The BBQ chicken pizza was absolutely delicious and a standout dish for us. I want to give a special shout-out to Carlos and the food runner working tonight. He was very friendly and made a point to check on us as he passed by to make sure everything was good. In my opinion, that kind of attentiveness is what separates average service from seasoned food and beverage professionals. For dessert, we ordered the churros, which had an amazing filling that instantly hooked us. Our 3- and 5-year-old also enjoyed their kids' meals, and the fact that each kids' meal includes a sundae was a great touch. We can't wait to return, this is definitely a spot worth trying

The drinks were fantastic, reasonably priced, and generously poured. In fact, days later we were still talking about how good the drinks were and how much fun we had. We ended up ordering some food while we were there, and the fries were amazing. Sometimes bar food can be an afterthought, but that definitely wasn't the case here. The KDJ did an outstanding job keeping the energy up and making everyone feel welcome. The bartenders were friendly, attentive, and helped create a great atmosphere throughout the evening. Another thing worth mentioning is that the bathrooms were clean, which is always appreciated and says a lot about how a place is maintained. Most importantly, every single person in our group had a great time. It's not often that six people all walk away from a night out completely happy, but that's exactly what happened. If you're looking for a fun karaoke spot with great drinks, good food, and a welcoming atmosphere, Neil's Lounge is definitely worth checking out. We can't wait to come back!

The bartender immediately introduced himself, asked our names, and made us feel like regulars five minutes in. Big Cheers energy here. The crowd skewed more 50 yrs old+ locals, everyone posted up at the bar, chatting, laughing, clearly comfortable in their spot. Drinks are well-priced, no nonsense, and they've got karaoke if you're feeling brave (or just want the entertainment). I can already tell this would be a great spot to catch a football game or any sporting event--laid back, fun, and zero pretension. All in all, exactly what a bar should be. I liked it, I'd definitely be back, and I'm already planning my next visit.
