    Tell me you don't want customers, without telling me you don't want customers... We had an hour before our flight and looked at all of the food options from sit down to grab-and-go at PSP. Nine Cities Craft is the only restaurant down the Agua Caliente Concourse and looks cute with a modern vibe and indoor and patio seating. No hours posted, but apparently the are open from 4:30 a.m. until the last flight from Gates 12-20. We arrived around 4:00p and there were a handful of tables eating and drinking. The big issue here was service. There was one employee who initially seated us and brought menus, then couldn't be bothered, even when we were attempting to flag her down. After a long wait, another server came ("because I'm helping her out") and took our order and the food came rather quickly. We were happy with our meals, the Grilled Chicken Club and Grilled Salmon Sandwich. We both chose chips and not the other side option coleslaw. Two groups arrived after us. The first was told it was past last call for food, but the bar was still open. They had trouble choosing a beer, since many choices were already out. Another party arrived after them and was given the option to order food. Just a strange situation of inconsistent service and menu offerings. If we were at the airport at a different time, I would hope everything would be running smoothly. But, if it is time for you to close, just put out a sign and save everyone (customer and staff) the hassle.

    What we ordered: * Grilled chicken club with chips Fresh tasty chips. Juicy chicken and nice fresh bun. Service * Very friendly server and bartender Ambience * Quiet are in small airport * Music playing * Bar and outdoor seating * Right by gates

    Sandwich

    This review is for the last time I ate here (about 2 months now). Its a quite little eatery that has a selection of foods, I forgot which sandwich I ate. The service was the highlight, server was attentive to my needs and regularly checked up on me. The price for the food is a bit expensive, but its an airport... so its to be expected. I'll be visiting the PSP airport for a flight pretty soon and hope to stop by here again.

    Dining options at PSP were pretty limited when I was there in September 2024 as it seemed like there was a lot of construction/reorganizing going on, so my friend and I went to Nine Cities to relax and wait for our flights. The space is a bit small but we were seated right away. There isn't a ton of room for large luggage, but our server helped us arrange our bags so they were (sort of) out of the way. The menu is small and has some breakfast options, snacks, drinks, etc. We started with chips and guacamole, which was a pretty comical portion for the price. It seemed fresh at least. We ended up hanging out here for quite a while so I got a veggie flatbread later on. It was just okay. It was fully cooked and the crust wasn't soggy, but the veggies were not my favorite - some kind of tough eggplant, zucchini, and mushrooms. I wish it was cheesier. It did the trick for a quick snack and service was generally okay, although it was pretty busy by the time we left and had to ask for our bill twice. Overall the prices and quality don't really match up here, but you're pretty limited so it was basically our only option. The decor is cute and very Palm Springs-y.

    I'm trying not to be particularly rude, but this was almost $20. The fyre festival of breakfast food. The egg sandwich was hot - likely fresh from a flash heater, the hash brown was still frozen in the center. And the three pieces of arugula were slimy. The server was nice - but the food quality is terrible. For an "international airport" we need better food service!

    Ordered the grilled chicken club sandwich and a Diet Pepsi. Our server brought the food out quick and was happy to give us refills on water regularly. The vibe of the restaurant is something I would expect from Palm Springs and it was nicely decorated. Our food was good. If you are at this airport I recommend the grilled chicken club sandwich!

    Overpriced for the quality. For the price and quality, Jack in the box or McDonalds would be a much better alternative. Ambiance is good.

    YES to everything!…read more The food was excellent. We started with the crab cakes, and although they lacked a bit of structural integrity, they were absolutely divine! The aioli they came with was a perfect pairing. The chili was great! Lots of meat in it & I ate it my favorite way, which was loaded onto some buttered up cornbread! My entree was the chicken pot pie, and wow, wow, wow! What a treat. The crust was perfect, and the pot pie is packed with chicken, veggies, and that delicious signature pot pie creaminess! We were lucky enough to meet the new owners who have committed to maintaining the traditions of the original community stronghold that has been "Billy Reed's".

    $40 meatloaf & beer. Pre tax and tip. Delicious. Very good service. BINGO was a blast, consider it…read moredinner and a show for the price of your meal. Kings Highway at the Ace Hotel does an excellent job of making you feel like royalty, which is important, because the menu prices certainly expect you to feel that way. But let's be honest, it's still a hotel restaurant. And hotel restaurants in premium destinations, like Palm Springs, rarely cater to travelers with beer budgets with champagne tastes. You're paying for the location, the atmosphere, and here specifically the mythology wrapped around this property as much as the meal itself. For this isn't just any hotel, this is the Ace Hotel. It is practically sacred ground for the hipster pilgrimage. Its OG ground zero for the influencer backdrop. In many ways, its trajectory mirrors what happened to Coachella or Burning Man: once an affordable, quirky alternative experience, now polished into a premium-priced cultural institution. Still, despite a few noticeable cracks in the armor, there's a lot to like here. First, the food. The meatloaf was soft, juicy, and flavorful. It's comfort food without becoming pretentious. The carrots were cooked perfectly. Those were tender, but still with enough firmness to remind you they were once vegetables. The mashed potatoes were exactly what mashed potatoes should be comforting and neutral. A great backdrop to the main. While scanning the fine details of the menu, there's a small line buried almost in fine print atop the dinner selection offering a glass of wine or beer with your entrée for an additional $8. As silly as it sounds, that qualifies as a bargain. Then came dessert - a warm sticky toffee date cake topped with vanilla ice cream, candied pecans, and caramel drizzle. Spectacular!!! I was lucky because it wasn't even on the menu yet, but I won it during on a game of BINGO. And BINGO night itself was pretty darn entertaining. Norma Lee High and Ms. Cherry Superstar kept the entire room moving with sharp narration, quick banter, and infectious energy. Their chemistry carried the night and gave the restaurant an atmosphere that felt more like dinner theater than simple dining. It's not filthy, adult, or aggressive, but for whatever reason its just not designed for everyone. There are references younger guests miss. If you proudly voted for Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz, Tuesday night at Kings Highway may not be your scene. Now with all that said, some issues did appear, but none of these were devastating individually, but collectively enough to dull the shine a bit. For starters, the public-facing information for the restaurant desperately needs attention. The online BINGO times are incorrect, some listings still reference 2025 dates, the start and end times are wrong, and the online menu doesn't match the physical menu they hand you at the table. And one menu item stretched the truth. The ribs advertised "homemade BBQ sauce," yet sitting behind the counter was a commercial sauce bottle bought in bulk. It's a small detail, but details matter when you're charging premium prices. Then there are the sticky counters. Strangely enough, this isn't a cleanliness issue. The counter itself were clean. The tackiness likely comes from years of commercial sanitizers slowly breaking down the varnish, leaving behind a sticky film that some might mistake as something other than clean. In reality, it probably means they wipe the counters down constantly. They just haven't refinished the surface in a very long time. So the issue is upkeep. Speaking of upkeep, there is a 5% dine-in surcharge. A surcharge that does not go to the staff feels less like hospitality and more like naked profiteering. At least if the cost were simply built into the menu prices, the service staff would likely benefit from increased tip percentages alongside the restaurant itself. Additionally, when the bill is presented it's by the handheld computer that never leaves the servers hand. There's no physical copy. There's no chance to review and calculate. It's an under the gun sort of thing. I don't have those anxieties, but others may. I do enjoy a more leisurely approach to settling the bill because it is all part of the dining experience. All these financials as presented, leaves a sour final impression after an otherwise genuinely good dining experience and entertaining night. Lastly, and this is more about Palm Springs as a whole than Kings Highway specifically, I hope the city avoids falling into the same trap Vegas did years ago when the experience starts getting overshadowed by the price tag. Because once that happens, people stop talking about the atmosphere, the food, or whatever. They only talk about what everything cost. Still, Kings Highway succeeds where many hotel restaurants fail in that at least on Tuesday nights it gives you a memorable evening. Maybe not a perfect one, but definitely one you'll talk about afterward.

As you can see from my pics, the Traditional Eggs Benedict weren't quite up to par. The poached eggs were a bit under done. The hollandaise sauce was creamy but lacked the pinch of cayenne and a bit under flavored. The ham was ample but not so flavorful. There was a bed of spinach between the ham and English muffin. This was over cooked. The diced potatoes were nice and crunchy, but there wasn't any seasoning on them. On the other hand, the Breakfast Bowl was quite refreshing. My pic doesn't do justice to the freshness and variety of this bowl. The coconut milk was sweet and pared well with the fruit. The texture of the granola and coconut shaving nicely contrasted with the bananas and berries. Mixed through the coconut milk was the red quinoa which made the milk more substantial. This was a great way to eat healthy.
