    One of my favorite happy hours in Palm Desert! I am surprised to see that it is not more busy here. We have been here several times and it has always consistently been fantastic quality and fast service. They have such a great variety on their happy hour menu, the portions are very generous, and the price is beyond fair. Excellent quality and beautiful presentation. Perfect option for an early dinner! Highly recommended!

    I think because we went closer to closing we didn't get the best food quality. The steaks weren't cooked the best. The shrimp and crab meat had absolutely no flavor. But we looked nice

    We were searching for a place to celebrate a Christmas lunch. With so many places either closed or offering only a prix fixe menu, we were happy to find SS open and available. However, we could only make to separate reservations online for our large party. Fortunately, Ryan was kind enough to secure a table/location for all of us to dine together. Little did we know that he would be our server as well. Everything and everyone was knowledgeable, prompt, attentive, delicious, prepared as ordered, etc. My only recommendation would be to have a thicker graham cracker base for their key lime pie!

    We came for my 40th birthday and 13 people! The staff was great especially our server, Addison. He was attentive and knowledgeable and efficient! Would default come back. The food was also delicious, try the Crab Cake! Ambiance was lovely, classic steakhouse atmosphere.

    My husband and I love coming to this statehouse. We celebrate our second wedding anniversary here and we absolutely love the food. We got the filet mignon and Cajun ribeye. Appetizers and sides are ok. I was a little disappointed that they ran out of the dynamite roll. Overall, the service was amazing, our server was very friendly. I enjoy the ambiance a lot.

    Hats that were allowed for others to dine however not at our table of 2.

    Interesting experience, service was good! Food was good, however we were approached by a host about wearing a ball cap and asked to remove it. Ok, fair enough, however the men behind us had on caps, then after speaking to the manager,( she was very apologetic about the situation, 2 guys were seated behind us wearing t-shirts and one with a labeled ball cap. Quite disrespectful and discouraging being that I was so excited to go to a Sullivan's, it had been a few years. Won't go back!

    Waiting on our food at Sullivan's steakhouse

    I'd like to piggyback off of my sister Yvette Mejia's review on Google reviews. My sister, nephew, and I visited this location on 3-8-26. We were so excited , I hadn't been to a Sullivan's in years. We were promptly greeted, which was a nice start. Our server was fairly young and didn't write down our order, which I assume was his way of trying to memorize it. I had ordered the lunch portion of the salmon as well as mashed potatoes as my side, and started off with the Caesar salad, which was good. When my entrée came out, I was brought the wrong side, not the mashed potatoes I ordered. The server offered to take it back to the kitchen to make it right, but we all know the old saying: never send something back to the kitchen under any circumstance. When he brought out the replacement mashed potatoes, they were cold. At that point I didn't even want to say anything because everything was just falling apart. To make matters worse, my sister mentioned her lobster bisque was cold, and my nephew said the same about his mashed potatoes with his steak. This place had two tables filled with patrons, IT WAS DEAD!. The kitchen staff apparently didn't have enough time to check the temperature of the food, but they had plenty of time to be on their cell phones and watching TikTok videos. With only three tables in our section, there's really no excuse for that level of inattention. I decided it was best to speak to a manager. It took her roughly 10 to 15 minutes to come to us , again, three tables, so I know she wasn't busy. She just didn't want to deal with it. I explained the situation: the server not writing down the order, the wrong side dish, and the cold replacement. To his credit, I did make a point of telling her that he tried to make it right -- but the replacement came out cold and bland regardless. She stood there listening and it was almost like I was speaking to a wall. She never offered to bring out a properly heated side, never offered any solution -- she was just going through the motions. That was really surprising, considering this is not a Sizzler steakhouse we're talking about. At that point my sister and I were just ready to leave. We still gave our server 20% gratuity because, honestly, it wasn't his fault. The fault lies with management and a kitchen that should have been checking the temperature of every plate before it left. This was a very disappointing visit, especially given that we splurged on dessert and drinks and walked away feeling like none of it was worth it. I hope management learns from this, because the valley is a very small community and people do talk. This is my experience tied in with my sister's, and it may not be anyone else's , but it was ours. We won't be coming back anytime soon.

    " ICEBERG LETTUCE WEDGE " Isn't this false advertisement?

    We came here for dinner on Valentine's Day and were very disappointed. The hostess was not welcoming whatsoever and set a poor tone from the moment we walked in. In contrast, the gentleman assisting with seating guests was friendly, professional, and genuinely inviting -- he should be the first person guests see when entering the restaurant. Our server was good and attentive. Unfortunately, the food fell short. We ordered the Parmesan fries, which arrived without any Parmesan. After politely mentioning it to our server, we were brought a side of Parmesan and had to finish the dish ourselves. The wedge salad was also disappointing -- more like a chopped salad and extremely lightly dressed, lacking flavor and presentation. At least the main courses were decent, but they weren't enough to justify the overall experience. For the price we paid, I would not recommend this restaurant, nor would I return. It's sad to see what was once a go-to spot decline to this level.

    Came to Palm dessert for the weekend with some friends and they highly recommended Sullivan's. I've been craving a good steak dinner so we didn't even question it especially since the restaurant was partaking in restaurant week and I just love a good deal! We ordered: Ribeye steak with garlic mashes potatoes. Potato's were pretty good and fresh. Steak was a bit bland with lots of fatty parts I had to cut out. Wedges salad was ok not bad . It was cold and crispy so that's a plus. Lobster and shrimp bisque was liked by the table . We asked for more of the complimentary bread to dip into it. Broiled salmon came with sautéed spinach. Salmon was a bit dry. The skin was burnt . Hibiscus cosmopolitan was on point. I'd order that again. Service was extremely slow and it wasn't too busy for how slow it was.

    My buddy and I decided to stop here after a day of golfing. We ordered the aged ribeye, porterhouse, mushrooms, lobster mash potatoes, and a few drinks. The sides and most of the meal was top notch. My gripe was the steak quality. I eat enough steak at home that I can absolutely tell the difference between and prime cut and choice. Both of our steaks tasted like choice and just didn't have that tenderness that comes with a prime steak. I liked the meal, but not sure I would rush back without trying other places in the area first to compare. Oh! almost forgot! Raul our server was awesome all night. Kudos to him

    We went on New Years Eve and had a reservation at 5. The restaurant was already busy which was good to see. We ordered the shrimp cocktail as an appetizer and then as a main course, I got the Filet Mignon on the bone with an added lobster tail. Out of all of the steaks we got, mine was the only one that was flavorful and well seasoned. Besides this, the shrimp, fresh bread, and desserts were delicious.

    New york steak & crab fried rice
    Jen B.

    We had just come from the Palm Springs Tramway on a snow day and didn't feel like dining there, so we went looking for a steakhouse and found this one, even though it meant driving a bit farther. We arrived around 6 p.m. and the place was completely empty. I'll admit we weren't dressed very formally, but we were told to sit wherever we liked, so we chose a booth. It took quite a while for our server to come over, and we were already pretty hungry by then. When our waitress arrive, I asked about the three options on the menu, and she said she needed to grab a paper to explain them. I told her "never mind" because it sounded like it would mean waiting even longer. I would have expected that staff would have those three items memorized, but it wasn't a big deal since I was only asking out of curiosity and ended up not ordering them. The server gave us some time to decide what we wanted, but again it took a long time before she came back, even though I could see her chatting with coworkers. After about 15 minutes, she finally returned and I ordered a medium-rare New York strip steak and the crab fried rice. Our food took about 20 minutes to arrive, which was understandable. The dishes themselves were very good and I have no complaints about the quality of the food. About 15 minutes after we were served, our server came by to ask if she could clear our plates, but we weren't finished yet, so she left. We then spent more time finishing our meal, and once again it took quite a while for her to return to our table. Overall, the food was excellent, but the service did not meet my expectations. Our server didn't feel very attentive or accommodating, and I couldn't help wondering if it was because we weren't dressed up. Because of the service, I'm taking one star off.

    Happy Hour Menu (as of 2/15/25)
    Mike W.

    4.5 Stars...First experience and had a very nice time. Sat in the bar area and experienced wonderful service, delicious food, and live music/dancing. Lots of parking in the mall's parking structure, as well as on the surrounding streets. Although we were walk-ins, reservations are recommended. Happy Hour in the bar, Mon. - Thur. from 3-6pm. SERVICE: We didn't have reservations, as we were only looking to hang out at the bar for cocktails and munchies, but it started rough with some major attitude from the hostess towards my wife and 91-year-old mother-in-law. Fortunately, we were able to find our own table in the bar area where Mac"Kenzie" waited on us, and her personality and efficiency were so wonderful, that we soon forgot about the run-in with the hostess. She saved our evening, and we'll certainly look for Kenzie again on our next visit. FOOD & DRINK: Once settled, we ordered a Blueberry Lemon Drop Martini, a Smoked Rosemary & Orange Old Fashioned, and a French 75. Later, we also tried a Banana Old Fashioned, and a Barrel Aged Vieux Carré. I thought the cocktails were well made, quite tasty, and reasonably priced ($15 for all martinis and craft cocktails). For food, we ordered a couple of appetizers to start: the Caviar Deviled Eggs ($35), Oysters Rockefeller 6ea. ($25), and a bowl of the Lobster & Shrimp Bisque ($12). We also tried the Spicy Shrimp Eggrolls ($19), George's Bay Seared Scallops entrée ($46), and the Lobster Au Gratin ($23). Finished off with a Coffee ($4) and a White Chocolate Almond Martini. Everything was prepared perfectly and delicious. One exception, we didn't think that the caviar added anything to the deviled eggs, other than the price. TIP: We purchased $100 worth of Sullivan's gift cards at Costco for $80, saving us some $$ for additional food and drinks. Overall, a great first visit...I'm sure we'll be back for many more.

Now, to be fair,…read morewhile some locations are attached to a store, this outpost on El Paseo is a completely separate venue, across the street from the clothing and furniture stores, and if you knew nothing about it, you'd never think this lovely restaurant was even related. The vibe is Caribbean chic, with woods and off-white tones to the decor, and a staff that finds the right balance between friendly attentiveness and laidback calm to make you relax and get comfortable. We sat at the bar and were tended to by Mandy (who confirmed she was named for the Manilow song); she was lively and full of suggestions, and kept tabs on us very well. I'll add that the other bartenders were just as friendly when they pitched in, as were the food runners. We were just aiming for a snack, so we ordered the Skillet Biscuits and Lobster Skewers. The biscuits came piping hot and packed with flavor. Flaky and buttery, with a pleasing crown of Maldon salt, they melted in your mouth, and paired perfectly with either of the accompanying spreads. Honey butter was sweet but not too much so, and Pimento Cheese had just the right combination of funk and spice. The Lobster Skewers were light and tasty: the tail of a slipper lobster, split, spiked and grilled over fire, landing with the look and aroma of something that's been through the flames. Served with clarified butter for dipping, the tender lobster meat was fresh and satisfying. But the big surprise was the accompanying Succotash, a vegetable medley I usually dislike and had planned to leave untouched. I decided to try it because it looked so good, and it sure was terrific. Fresh corn and baby squash bathed in lemon and butter, and lightly seasoned, it really was a terrific bite. I should also mention that I ordered a cocktail: the Berry Proper, made with gin, Framboise, lemon and a dash of simple syrup. It was equal parts sweet and tart, and wholly refreshing. It was a light lunch split between two, but it was very tasty, and far more satisfying than the usual sandwich or burger. Kudos to Mandy and the team.

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.

We let our bartender pick for us and she did great. They also have a premium wine flight available. The Mushroom Truffle Flatbread was definitely the start of the show. Very surprised at how delicious it was! We thought it was a pizza based in the previous photos but was perfect for the two of us.

    THE AMBIANCE: Amazing hidden gem in the desert! This…read morerestaurant is located inside La Quinta Resort & Club, and the experience feels special from the moment you walk through the historic, tall arched wooden doors. The entrance lead you down a hallway toward the hostess stand, with couches, a bar and a piano being played to the left. To the right , you enter the main dining room. The space felt open, elegant, and immediately welcoming. Talk about fine dining at its best. The hostess was able to quickly seat our party of six, and our server immediately brought over the menus and filled our water glasses. THE FOOD: We started with the oysters , and they did not disappoint. They were served with a shallot mignonette which was vinegary in all the right ways. They were so good, that we ended up ordering a second round. For dinner, we all ordered the steak with mushrooms and broccoli. The steak was perfectly cooked, and every bite was bursting with flavor. Even the mushrooms and broccoli stood out. Everything was seasoned beautifully without overpowering the actual flavors of the vegetables. Even the bread was so good. It was served with three different butters. And dessert? Also top notch. It was the perfect ending to a wonderful dinner with friends. THE SERVICE: The service really added to the experience. Our server was attentive and took great care of us. The GM, Ray, also stopped by our table, and we ended up chatting and joking with him a bit. He was incredibly friendly and personable and made sure we were having a great experience. Between the setting, the food, the genuinely attentive service, this as one of those dinners where it all felt elevated. Definitely one of the many highlights of our stay at La Quinta Resort.

    Morgan's in the Desert: Disappointment After Disappointment. $400 for Meh…read more After living in La Quinta for four years, we were ready to try Morgan's, as it's one of the last foodie restaurants in the Coachella valley that we haven't tried. We arrived early for our reservation, excited to grab a drink at the bar before dinner. Then we were told our table was already available... only to be seated at a dining table in the bar, off to the side, where apparently servers do not exist while staring at the back of the pianist and the barflies. The two bartenders were fantastic--especially Brian, who was working at warp speed--but they already had a packed bar to manage. Adding dining tables to their workload was clearly not realistic. Why were we seated there? Still a mystery. Reservation problems: I booked through the QR code advertised in The Gem for the August prix fixe dinners at La Quinta Resort's restaurants. When we arrived, we were told the prix fixe menu wasn't available that day. Sorry! So we ordered bread and oysters instead. About 15-20 minutes later, the manager came over and said they would honor the prix fixe after all. Great! Except... we'd already ordered appetizers. ‍ And wow, was it SLOW. We were seated at 5:30 and still didn't have our entrées at 7:00. Drinks regularly sat empty, and once the restaurant got busy around 6:30, water refills disappeared completely. Did I mention it was 110 degrees outside? The food? A mixed bag--but overall, wildly overpriced and underwhelming. * Oysters: Ice-cold and served with a good mignonette. Also pricey. * Bread: Fresh and warm, but the olive tapenade was aggressively salty. Again, overpriced. * Watermelon salad: The winner! Refreshing, flavorful, and the spicy nuts gave it a nice kick. Highly recommend. * Chicken cacciatore: Dry chicken, undercooked tomatoes, overcooked pasta. Never again. * Oscar filet: Delicious and well-prepared, but nothing memorable or special--especially for the price. Bottom line: We spent about $400 for a frustrating, painfully slow, mostly mediocre meal. There are too many great restaurants in the area to spend that kind of money on "meh." We won't be back.
