As I was trying this place for the first time I was overwhelming overcome with sensory emotion. The food the chef creates is a culinary art experience. Highly.... highly recommend. This isn't taught or learned. It's in her DNA making the future and our beautiful valley a better place. On top of that the owner/chef had personally taken a lot of time (after hours) to address some odd service we had at a diff location (which also exemplifies outstanding culinary design). If you haven't tried BP you should. For reasons above the million star cuisine. I've eaten all over the world and the crab cakes just took it to a different level. The huevos at Chula were my first favorite. Thank you for doing what you do Katherine. I hope to nominate you someday for a huge award so you don't have to stress/manage your restaurants alone to focus on what you love. Staff and logistics are unpredictable for us too as small /large biz owners. It's a new world! Just know you touched my soul for various reasons with yours at a time when we needed it. All the spices. All the details are perfection and new light of discovery with each plate. THANK YOU for being you and bringing positivity and reflection to the world one dish at a time. Several of your biggest fans, L & S Jones, LQ read more

The Blushing Peony - Crab Cakes that elevated my life. - Wine Bars Near Me - Indian Wells, California

Love this place!!! The gazpacho is amazing. The waitresses are always so friendly and should be commended for their hospitality and service. read more

The Blushing Peony is the sister restaurant to Chula in La Quinta which I haven't been to. Blushing Peony is a cute brunch spot serving up delicious dishes and pastries. We split the bacon orange dates with mascarpone which were to die for. The burrata apple salad was a perfect fall salad. It has crispy prosciutto, candied pecans, arugula and apples which had been seasoned with a nice warm spice mix. We also shared the chicken BLT. This was a lot of food for two but we left full and happy. They are a wine bar as well and have wine dinners from time to time. I definitely recommend this spot for brunch or lunch. The decor is very feminine. This is a great place to meet with friends. read more

The Blushing Peony - Bacon dates with orange and mascarpone. 5/5 - Wine Bars Near Me - Indian Wells, California

We went there for girls lunch out... the decor is cute... like a doll house play room, we ordered our lunch and to our big surprise wasn't so pleased with each orders... we all looked at each-other and just pretended that everything is "great" not sure if it will succeed, will see but will not go back, prices and portions dont really match... read more

Only leaving a review because this place has potential. Super cute, Fresh, Real Ingredients, the flavor However, Meh.. it's needs what we call Sazón.. the protein has no flavor. The wine selection was excellent though! So for an aesthetic atmosphere and good wine, this place is Warning.. not for large groups read more

Yikes! What potential fallen short. Sat down, 15 mins for menus. (Less than half the tables were filled, so not sure where the bottleneck happened as there were 3 staff members milling around. 25 minutes before drinks were taken. Another 20 minutes for them to arrive.d One of our items were completely forgotten and never arrived, plates were cleared before items were finished. Seems like maybe it had only soft launched as a lot of issues just weren't worked out yet. Deviled eggs were ok, bacon dates were ok. Didn't realize it was possible to mess up avocado toast but it happened. I can't imagine what would happen if more tables were full and they were nearing capacity... :( read more

Sporadic visit and this place was amazing! Not pictured: golden latte, iced coffee, arnold palmer & bloody mary - all delicious! Service was great and our waiter was very kind. Ambiance is so pink and cute - big pours for wine as well. Only point off is having to ask for new utensils/ cups as they had residual makeup from previous customers. Quickly given new ones but only issue for us! Definitely recommend for a brunch moment! read more

This is a wonderful restaurant! The food was delicious and the atmosphere is so nice for single dining, a mini lunch date or a get-together with friends. We had the Orange Bacon Dates and they were so good. Having orange and bacon on them is an added bonus! We also had the Manchego Potato Croquettes. So good! The red chile broth and sweet pepper aioli that came with them was bursting in flavor. It was served with a perfect bread to soak up any extra of those great sauces. We decided to get the carafe mimosa with pomegranate juice. Very good choice! **The service was spot on. She was helpful, sweet and very efficient! We will definitely be back. read more

What a beautiful, new, and tasty hot spot in Indian Wells. It has a cozy feel, like a little hole in the wall. These types of restaurants are the best places to eat. Farm to table freshness and a menu curated by an outstanding chef. If you love, Chula's (who doesn't) you will love this new enchanting, tasty, and fun place to brunch or lunch. The service is outstanding too, by the way. read more

Great breakfast and friendly staff. Definitely worth checking out. Took home a fresh scone for the next day and it too was delish. read more

This place is so stinking cute. I had a cold so got two different pressed juices and ate a little of the brioche French toast which was freaking fabulous. My family all really liked their dishes. They had the salmon lox, turkey sandwich, basic breakfast, and a few other things. I would like to return when I'm feeling better so I can eat some of the things on the menu but everything was great and the outdoor seating was cool and adorable. The staff were great too. read more

The food is really good and presented well. We loved everything ,however, it's pricey and the portions are small for me because I like to eat one larger sized meal around 2 pm so I can skip eating dinner. Breakfast would be enough if you are having diner. read more

The Blushing Peony - I had the cobb salad! So tasty and great flavours - Wine Bars Near Me - Indian Wells, California

Great food! Cute little place. Wish they stayed open later n on Sundays too! Love the bread and the jam.

Cozy, chic new cafe with inspired food. Good for vegetarians and meat eaters. Don't miss the divine bakery items! Easy parking too.

The Blushing Peony is a wonderful "little gem" with an amazing menu created by Chef Katherine Gonzales and it is obvious she takes pride in making all the dishes both fresh and creative. Now open for dinner on Thursday and Friday, we took our girlfriend to celebrate her birthday and started with the shrimp toast which was fabulous. Our server Udith spoiled the birthday girl with her favorite carrot cake which she thankfully shared with us. Can't wait for dinner to be served every night as this is the perfect casual spot to enjoy a wonderfully prepared meal in a relaxing and cozy environment. read more

Food and service are excellent here! I ordered the avocado toast with poached egg, and the dates with mascarpone cheese. Both were outstanding! I highly recommend this Restaurant. read more

The food here was edible artwork. Your senses were heightened by the aroma of all things delicious. If bacon could be honored, it was at the Blushing Peony. Service was excellent and very welcoming. Our hostess was amazing and such a pleasant demeanor. The ambiance was the perfect vibe for 3 Woman to enjoy each others company and devour some amazing dishes. The decor was simple and elegant. Peonies are my favorite flower. Not to mention the Lemon Curd Waffles ! OMG!! And the grilled cheese with mushrooms ... The Blushing Peony is a MUST! read more

Great and creative food options. Went for breakfast one morning and shared a few plates; Deviled eggs Grilled cheese Peach/pecan brioche French toast All amazing plates! Place was not huge but the smaller space gave it a comfy vibe. read more

Been here twice. What attracted me was the very cute cosy ambiance. A friend had suggested it as well. Good place to meet friends. Food is made to order and good presentation. They have delicious ice tea. However I have to you mention both times, once I requested modification on my dish, it was not encouraged but they did it because I told them it's not to my taste. The second time I ordered turkey club, server returned to tell me they don't have turkey ready yet. I appreciate that everything is made fresh but it should be available. But I will give them another try. read more

Went to Palm Springs last weekend with my peeps. What a spectacular find! I felt like we were in Europe. We both ordered the Aperol Spritzer (which has sparkling wine). My mistake I didn't read ingredients I was exhausted from the drive. I am allergic to wine. Needless to say I had a reaction. Kind of funny though... being I am a real living I Love Lucy! We also, both ordered the grilled peach+burrata. It was stupendous!! I wanted more but had to rush next door to get a loaf of gluten free bread to absorb the wine. It was an extraordinary experience without a doubt! I recommend stopping in here if you're in Palm Springs!! read more

I ordered the crab cakes. They are not traditional. There are no chunks, it's stringy and bland. There is so much sauce, very disappointed. What made it worse, is the server came by after my friends had finished their meals. When I mentioned I didn't care for the crab cakes, the response was, sorry. I will not be back. To many great restaurants with great service. read more

Excellent food, was greeted by the executive chef herself, great decor, background music, most important great food and dining experience with my beautiful wife, first time here and loved the Farm to Table menu. Please come over and enjoy, you will love it. Mimosas and pastries to die for. read more

Cute little place for brunch! Service is delightful and the menu has delicious gluten free options. Great selection of food for all pallets!

I have gone here twice and while the food is good, I don't know if I would go back. Both times I went was right when they were opening up. The menu is small but is perfect for the small place and everything is unique. The first time, when we got to order, two food items I wanted they were out of. They could have mentioned that when we sat down what items weren't available since it wasn't a big menu. Wound up getting the Burrata salad and it was really amazing. Second time I went back, again after sitting for a while to decide what we wanted, when we went to order, the drink I wanted they were out of the stuff for it and one food item I wanted they were out of. How hard is it to let people know that you are out of items when you sit them down. Just frustrating. read more

Beautiful food, great cozy space. So enjoyed it! Cannot wait to treat my sister when she visits next! read more

I've been to the Blushing Peony for Brunch, for Coffee and for their special event Wine Pairing dinners. Everything is farm to fork and I love the fact that they make so much from scratch even some of their flours. The ambiance is always on point and it's just a quaint little gem that more people should know about. Please try the tomato soup and grilled cheese, and the buttercakes - you won't be dissapointed. read more

Beautiful salads & great looking homemade pastries! Charming place- with bistro like tables -- small space + outdoor.

We arrived at 1pm on Sunday for brunch. We actually had friends meeting us, but we arrived they were closing. When we asked why, they gave us NO reason, just "sorry, we are closing" definitely not professional not reliable and we won't be back. read more

Love this new welcoming eatery in Indian Wells. We know the sister restaurant, Chulla and could not wait for this location to open. Checked it out for brunch and loved it. Nice menu and good vibe. The food quality is top notch farm to table. Restaurant is small and was full when we arrived. Great to see. We will definitely be back. The cappuccino was a 10 too! read more
