We got great value for our money and the food was delicious. The pomodoro was like nothing I've had before. The scallops and shrimp were extra fresh and perfectly cooked. My wife got the beef bolognese which was good, though she liked my dish a lot more lol Service was very friendly and nice. They also give complimentary bread. It's a small hole in the wall spot, but definitely worth the visit. We'll be back next time we're in town. We can for the Jerry Seinfeld show 5/5 overall

Old school "red sauce" Americanized Italian. The marinara is decent enough, nothing special…read more Pasta is cooked to American tastes and is not exactly "al dente". The service is good, the prices reasonable. Decor is dated but clean. Parking is plentiful. If the "Italian" food version of the '50's to the 80's is what you or your out of town guests seek likely you'll enjoy Norma's.

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.

This entire experience was fantastic. We just happen to get there right when the Marilyn Monroe…read moreAnniversary was occurring. This meant Marilyns everywhere, including the waiters, which made the experience that much more fun. Aside from that, we had made reservations ahead of time thankfully, because it was BUSY. But we were sat just as soon as we had arrived, and despite it being very hot out at the time, they had a bunch of shaded spots with misting fans. The drinks were fantastic, including mine which was a zero-proof mocktail. We all ordered different chicken dishes, and each one received high praise. I was able to try each of them and I was very happy with my fajitas, but I gotta give the nachos their dues. They were just as good. Chips were crispy all the way through, and not one was soggy from all the ingredients. Loved it, will definitely be back when I visit again. Id also like to mention that we chose this place as my friend's Bachelor Party closing dinner, and he couldn't have been happier. He was so thrilled with how the weekend had gone, that dining at Clandestino's really was the cherry on top. Thank you for making our dining experience such a pleasant one.

And each time, they and myself have alway enjoyed our meal and experience. Thursday night, with the village fest going on. We stopped by for dinner before walking the blvd. I would have loved to enjoy dinner al fresco but it was too hot for everyone else... They did have patio seating with mister but we ended up in the main dining room. Theres normally the hostess at the entrance of the place but I guess with it being hot, we checked in at the main hostess's table inside. It was actually quite busy indoor. I think out of all the times I've been here, this may have been the second or third time inside. Our waiter was sweet and friendly. He mentioned the specials but we were a little taken back as it was so fast we couldnt understand what he was saying....lol... Didn't want to interrupt him or make him uncomfortable. Anyway, we knew what we wanted from the menu. Baguette and tapenade was brought out before hand to enjoy. Quite tasty especially when it was nice and hot. Water and drinks were constantly freshen up. Everyone was amazing and friendly. Entrees, the ham and peas tortellini. We've had this dish before which was excellent and it was the same this time. The cream sauce was very tasty as well as stuffed tortellini. Very filling and delicious. Also the spinach ravioli. First time trying this dish and it was delicious as well. Pretty filling with the portion and the filling was delicious. Also paired well with the sauce. Both dish was excellent and very filling. Lastly, we had this dish before and like it, the linguine rustica. A mixture of chicken, beef and shrimp with bell peppers and onion in a red sauce. This too was very filling and quite big. The meat was cooked perfectly and very flavorful. Beef had a really nice taste and very tender. Nice big pieces of shrimp. Highly recommend this dish. Of course we were pretty full that there was no room for dessert. But they do bring out some biscotti and I believe it's amaretto after dinner. A nice little cleanser and just enough sweets. Meal was delicious and the service was excellent. Each visit has been great hence why it's alway a stop for us.
