    Joyce, Margaret and Linda from Desert Sands attending the first tee event
    Margaret W.

    Attended a fundraiser for The First Tee at Giuseppe's. The food and drink was excellent and the owner even stopped by to say hello and give us a brief history of the restaurant. He was so very nice. I can't wait to get back there.

    Among the top 3 pasta marinara dishes I have ever had!!! Number 1 is my wife's pasta marinara, 2 is Pernicanos in San Diego, this is 3.

    This was a new restaurant at the resort we like to stay at. The worst fault was it was quite noisy. Not sure if it was an acoustic issue. We started off with the garlic cheesy bread. It had a slice of melted mozzarella on top and it was very yummy, especially since it had a delicious marinara dipping sauce. It could used more garlic (after all, it was garlic bread). My wife had the pasta with meat sauce, and it was just ok. I had pasta marinara with 2 meatballs, and it was EXCELLENT!! It was a wonderful sauce saturated with tomatoey flavor, and a hint of sugar. Dessert was a large scoop of chocolate Gelato, and it hit the spot!! We liked our dinner so much that we made a reservation for our last night at the resort!!

    After 30+ years in the Coachella Valley and dining all over, I can confidently say this is one of the best Italian restaurants out here. Joe and his wife Sue have created something truly special--amazing people, incredible food, and a warm, inviting atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Every dish is packed with flavor and made with real passion. Everything--food, service, ambiance--is top tier. If you haven't been here yet, you're missing out. Easy five-plus stars. I'll definitely be back.

    Another carb loading day before relay race. It brought me and my teammates to Gluseppes Restaurant. I believe it regional chain cause name sounds familiar and been to one before in life. It good memories of good basic Italian food. Interesting with this restaurant it sits on golf course and kind of club house for members. The outside hard to find or tell because only one sign outside. It looks more like pulling up club house or upscale golf course. The golf course makes it different views sitting outside on the patio. We did because the weather was perfect. I went with stable pasta dish like carb loading nice hearty bolognese. It was spot on. Nothing fancy but tomato sauce in point. Hearty and filling. Server was awesome. Attentive, friendly, and five stars for service.

    Cheese and sausage pizza.

    We went to Giuseppe's with high hopes. We love Chicago deep dish pizza. The closest good deep dish near the desert is in Phoenix. The restaurant and bar was nice, loud and busy. The service was only fair, seemed like they were understaffed and the bar was slow and the drinks expensive. The biggest disappointment however, was the pizza. The cheese and crust were good but you could barely find the sausage on our pizza. Our friends went on a scavenger hunt for their pepperoni. The most prominent feature of the pizza was the tomatoes, LOTS of tomatoes. Actually too many tomatoes. We left disappointed with no plans to return.

    Dessert to go at front.

    This location has been open 11 weeks as of 10.21.25, according to our great server, Izzy. I was wondering why so few pictures & reviews of such an amazing location, beautiful decor and delicious food. If you're staying at the Marriott Shadow Ridge, it's a fairly easy walk from any of the buildings to the location, just to the west of the registration/lobby area, in the building with the golf shop. We knew we would enjoy one no cooking in our resort unit at least one night, so after strolling around the property to check things out, we headed to Giuseppes for a bite. Without a reservation on a Tuesday night at 7:15, we were happily offered outside patio or bar for immediate seating, or a ~10-15 mins wait for the dining room. We selected the bar area and were escorted to a high table aside the bar immediately. Hubs perused the large menu while I snapped pics all around - I already knew I was having the sole. lol Izzy came over within a couple of minutes and offered to take a drink order while we looked at the menu, but we knew what we wanted so ordered straight away. Izzy smiled and thanked us for making it so easy. Off he went and we sat back to take in the beautiful decor and expanse of this large restaurant. Our food arrived within 15 mins and was great! My sole with lemon caper sauce and side of garlic sautéed spinach was perfectly delicate and delicious. Hub's pizza was obviously hand tossed, piping hot, light and yum! The only distracting thing - a V E R Y minor point - was the music overhead. Call me old fashioned, but when you have this warm decor and well appointed furnishings with a vast Italian menu, I wanna hear Frank and Dino crooning in the background. I wasn't opposed to the 80s and modern blend, but Palm Springs Rat Pack is definitely expected 'round these parts. They also have a beautiful lounge area for 21+ to enjoy live entertainment Fri - Sun evenings. That would be worth checking out for an aprés dinner drink and wind down. We would definitely return and I would very much like to try the freshly made pasta. That's amore! Cheers! "CC"

    Absolutely amazing! Roxanna was our server and she was amazing! The food was amazing, the vibe was chill! We're here for the week and will definitely be back!

    This is my third time here, I guess I'm a regular now :) the service is phenomenal. The food is fabulous and served 2nd to none. Very upbeat and lively. I'd like to keep it a secret, but too good not to share!

As our host walked us back to our table. I noticed how beautiful, classy, chic, superb, super clean it was, and so wear the restrooms. This Italian restaurant is huge, Everything inside was super elegant! As we sat down, we were greeted by our waiter Jack. Jack asked us if we had any questions, he answered them all beautifully! So we ordered Bocconcini di Mozzarella Caprese, Shrimp Dijon della Casa, 2 Linguine alle Bolognese, Fresh Minestrone Zuppa, Gnocchi al Pesto, fettuccini Alfredo with chicken, Fettuccine Alfredo with sausage, Risotto Tutto Mare, Risotto con Funghi with chicken, 2 order king crab legs. Their signature Bread is so delicious!! Everything was so mouth watering & highly delicious!! Everything explodes in your mouth, the savory tastes, I wished I could have eaten more, I was full! I also want to make a note, I normally do not eat crab at all. Once I tried & tasted the king Crab I was floored it's the best crab I have ever had! On top of that, Uriel was constantly making sure are glasses of waters, sodas, alcohol were always full without us asking us he was on it ! Castelli's is now my #1 Italian place to go to! Highest quality of their food, portion size was incredible, hospitality amazing! Their price points are so spot on! I highly recommend anyone who looking a a fabulous & delicious place to eat please come here! Jack & Uriel were so polite, kind, sweet, caring, super down to earth ! These are your rare diamonds please treasure them well! I would love to Thank Castelli's & their staff for our wonderful Mother's Day Dinner, with deliciousness & awesomeness on the side! I would especially love to Thank Jack, Uriel, Juan for making sure we had everything we needed ! You guys Rock! We definitely will be back again!! Can't wait!! I'll tell all my Family & Friends to visit here! Please be kind & courteous to these hard workers

Upon arrival, we were informed that happy hour is only available in the bar area, which we understood completely. However, the bar area exclusively features high-top tables, which my father is unable to use due to his disability. When I explained this and requested a low-top table as an accommodation, we were told that no alternative could be provided. I want to respectfully but firmly note that failing to provide accessible seating options for guests with disabilities is not only a gap in hospitality -- it may also raise concerns under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which requires places of public accommodation to make reasonable modifications for individuals with disabilities. I hope you will take this feedback seriously and make the necessary changes. We drove down the street to another establishment who gladly made the accommodations.
