    Spicy Corn Chowder

    Beautiful restaurant! We came here with our 8 girlfriends for dinner on a Friday night and had the best time! We were seated outside and it was perfect.. The waiters were very attentive and nice - We ordered the shaved Brussels sprout salad- yummy 9/10. The crab tower was too fishy for some - 7/10. We also ordered The beef stroganoffs, bolognese, veal , pork chop, sea bass and this was all delicious 9/10- the mushroom carbonara was a bit salty and the pasta was way overcooked 7/10- my favorite part of the meal was the complimentary potato bread which was sweet, and buttery! Definitely recommend and would come back

    Fernando is excellent captain, makes dining so special. The food, service and ambiance are truly amazing.

    Went to Jillian's for the first time for a Birthday although the food was good it was nothing spectacular and pricey our server John was totally obnoxious . At a fine dining Restaurant to have an impolite server like him is a complete & utter shame & speaks volumes of the venue hiring crew . He was so loud and rude to a couple of us . We would ask him a question & he would shout out the answer real loud embarrassing us just for asking . I asked for my drink he said he would get it & totally forgot about it i kept waiting till i finally had to ask someone else . No apologies or anything . Worst experience ever for a venue like Jillian's. Never going back . I remember another friend of mine complaining about how rude servers were there & she said she was never going back there again i couldn't understand why . I know now . C' mon Jillians do better with your hiring staff . Train them to be high class servers to be polite and service with a smile .

    Cappuccino, cookies and berries.

    Beautiful charming restaurant. All rooms are so elegant and inviting for dinner. A beautiful courtyard to enjoy dinner too. Bar is lovely. Attentive staff and food divine. First class and always a favorite of ours when we visit Rancho Mirage. Reservations a must for dinner. Highly recommend this restaurant. Will not disappoint.

Wine bar doesn't open till 5 which was when happy hour started. For the first hour, they had wine, well drinks and draft beer. A few small plates also offered. It's a wine and tapas bar. It's along El Paseo before you hit the main shopping area, depending on which way you come. Entrance has a nice wall created by ficus trees and mister spraying to keep you cool. There's a decent patio with a good amount of seating. Inside is where the party is. The place is set with two seating area. Right when you walk in is the bar. A good amount of hi top seating and tables. Hi top seating that are along the window were actually very uncomfortable. Padded seats were so narrow that seating was so uncomfortable but oh well. There's the other room seating area which houses all the wine on shelves. I believe it's also a wine store but that sectioned was closed for a private event. We just wanted a drink before dinner so no food was had. From the looks of the dishes that were coming out, they looked really nice. Tapas style dishes made for sharing. With happy hour, there was a couple dishes that was included. Also they offered a deal with a charcuterie board and a bottle included. We just went with a glass of their house red and white. And an order of spicy margaritas. It's a full bar so that was nice. Margaritas were great and house wine was decent. The service was great with the bartender who was a doll and very sweet. Made drinks and still had time to come check out on people. It was still early but it did pick up for happy hour which is from 5-6 right when they open. The place was quite nice and well decorated. Beautiful wine bar that's great for mingling with friends over food drinks and tapas. Will definitely be back for some food.

My server Jennifer was great to talk with about the wines, the owners, and the food. I enjoyed trying different cheeses along with a delicious Albariño wine. They had some fairly steady stream of customers, some were regulars and some were first-timers like me. Next time I will try one of the salads which I saw and it looked amazing. I have a feeling they will need to be expanding if the word gets out on how wonderful everything is. I added it to my list of stops whenever I am at my vacation place in Indian Wells. You should check them out!!

It clearly caters to a sophisticated crowd--very similar in vibe to their Calabasas location. While parking is accessible in the rear, it can get congested during peak season. The menu is extensive with plenty of excellent selections, though the pricing is definitely premium. For instance, a Cobb salad topped with fish can easily exceed $45; while the quality is high, that's a significant jump over nearby staples like Daily Grill. Service was friendly but lacked consistency; our server disappeared mid-meal without a hand-off, requiring us to flag down other staff. Overall, it's a bright, airy, and stylish spot well worth a visit, provided you're prepared for the 'luxury' price point.
