    Papaya Salad
    Justin F.

    White Russian: 6/5 One of my favorite drinks of all time, Truss and Twine has THE version. Sweet, smooth, and a little mysterious, this is what an espresso martini wants to be. 1 can be the perfect ending to a long night, more might make you not remember! The "Urinal" Cake: 5/5 This drink has a proper name, but I totally forgot. While this is not on the menu, the bartenders here can easily whip this up for you. The best way I can describe it is a very pleasant drink that is super smooth while having the essence and aroma of a men's restroom. Truss and Twine has so many phenomenal drinks that I probably wouldn't get this again but it's a good one! Papaya Salad: 4/5 Is it a little muted? Does it have fillers like cabbage? Is it pricey? Yes, but it's made with care and vegan for that crowd. They do little details like blanching the green beans that really impressed me but it definitely is a little toned-down in the flavor department. I would get it again to accompany my drinks but not as its own thing. Wagyu Beef Dumplings: 2/5 I didn't like these at all. The filling was dense and didn't taste like a proper dumpling filling. For all the oil they were floating in, it was very bland. Especially at the price it's at, I would pass. Ambiance: Modern and sleek. Come super casual or super dressed up. I've come looking rough while sitting right next people in full glamour. Service: The bartenders are all very attentive. If you feel like you're being ignored, flag them down and they'll catch right back up with you. Parking: There is only street parking but I never had issue finding any parking. Easy for street parking but hard if you're bad at it.

    Game changer
    Brielle O.

    Hadn't been here in a super long time. I tried two of the drinks Game Changer and Death at the beach. Sadly I don't really like either of them. Maybe just picked the wrong drinks that night. The staff was accommodating and switched out the death at the beach for the game changer instead. I would like to come back here and try a few different drinks.

    Always love our time at Truss & Twine. Drinks and ambiance are top notch, and Bryan is an outstanding bartender and manager. We love to visit here and come anytime we are in town!

    Christmas drinks from the holidays

    Tasty and unique drinks! Love to come here to start my night out on the strip. The atmosphere is very laid back and welcoming

    The place was small but it was a nice chill bar. The service was great and our server was great at recommending drinks and letting us know which one was her favorite. I did not try their food but did ordered their cookies which were a perfect little snack. Tried a couple of their drinks which were all pretty good. They even have holiday shots which were also good but strong.

    Love how they gave my mint 'snow' on my Santa's Helper cocktail.
    Susan M.

    This bar went all out for Christmas decorations and has several libations that are holiday focused- many of which come in very fun, fancy ceramics. The manager went out of his way to find me a cocktail that I would enjoy. I read about them in the Orange County Register because they are part of the Miracle Bars this year. I'm glad we gave them a try.

    Death at the Beach
    Jen N.

    Interesting spot. Very minimalist feel. Went in on a Thursday night, and it wasn't too busy. We sat at the bar. They have a nice menu that includes some classics, plus some of their own creations. The bartenders seem really knowledgeable though, so if you don't see something on the menu you want, definitely check for recommendations. I went with the Death at the Beach. The coconut cream wasn't heavy, but just gave it a soft mouthfeel. They had a special pop up kitchen that night. The food looked good, but we had already eaten. If you are looking for a nice cocktail at an unpretentious place, give it a try. We will stop back by next time we are in Palm Springs.

    Gimlet
    DeAnna L.

    Only had one bartender working on a Friday night but he was whipping through the drinks. It was fairly good. Drink was on the acidic side. The balance was a little off. Maybe if they had more staff the attention to detail would not get lost.

    Erik L.

    Was going to go to The front porch but they were booked so we ended up here and it did not disappoint. Was not sure what to expect at first but once the bartender asked us about what we liked and delivered the first round we knew we were in the right spot. Every drink was well made, balanced and a good riff on something we knew. As a huge James Bond fan I always like the idea of a Vesper but find the drink unbearable until now, just do not use lillet. Really great spot in Palm Springs will definitely come back!

    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 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.

    A flawless, five-star gastronomic masterclass in PS!…read more After finally scoring a coveted reservation, the entire experience blew us away from the second the host greeted us. We were immediately whisked away into a night of unrivaled service and culinary perfection. Tucked away in one of Palm Springs' most charming shopping plazas, this meal was easily the highlight of my week. The menu is brilliantly varied, but a few dishes truly stole the show. The grilled artichoke is a classic, but their execution of it is completely elite. The Halibut main was a revelation--hands down the best I've ever tasted. And you must save room for dessert because the Berries and Cream was worth every single bite. Absolutely delectable. Top it all off with A+++ service from a flawless staff, and this place is worth every bit of the hype.

Reservations are notoriously hard to get, but we got lucky with a last-minute walk-in and were seated after 15-20 min wait. There's plenty of parking, and if you do have to wait, they have a cute little covered outdoor seating area with chairs and tables where you can relax. We sat on the patio, which was surprisingly cool and comfortable, so don't let the Palm Springs heat scare you away. The whole restaurant has such a sexy, colorful, candlelit vibe that somehow feels both lively and intimate. We kept the drinks simple and ordered Hugo Spritzes, which were refreshing and perfectly made for a hot afternoon. What we ordered: * Caramelized Onion Tart (Puff pastry, chive, Comté) - This was recommended by our server and I can see why. It reminded me of French onion soup wrapped in a flaky puff pastry. Rich, savory, and definitely shareable since it is a bit on the heavier side. * Red Thai Curry Mussels (PEI mussels, ginger, garlic, lemongrass, red chile, coconut milk) - WOW. This was hands down my favorite dish. The broth was incredible, rich and packed with flavor without feeling too heavy. I was worried the lemongrass might overpower everything, but it was perfectly balanced. It comes with toasted bread and trust me, you'll want every last drop of that broth. I'd honestly come back just for this dish. * Steak Frites - The steak was cooked perfectly medium and was delicious. The fries were crispy and seasoned well, making it a classic done right. * Broccolini - Simple but really good with a nice char that added great flavor. Overall, we had a great experience. The atmosphere is one of the best parts..beautiful, moody, and full of personality..but the food absolutely held its own. Service was friendly, the patio was comfortable, and now I completely understand why it's one of Palm Springs' hardest reservations to get. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

If you didn't know better you'd think you were in LA in the summer, excepty for the bocce ball. They have an excellent selection of spirits, cocktails. Maybe a little varied, but decently creative. The only thing that gets me is pricing. Sure you pay for everything for decor, glassware and not just spritis, but I recall wondering how they price their drinks becuase not everything is equal or standard mark up when some things aren't house made it's easy to cost out becuase you stop paying for creativity after a certain point. It feels like they took alot of Mr. Lyons business model and use that for pricing rather than a sole entity with their own margins. The service makes up for it, the ambiance makes up for it. The crowd makes up for it. Far less wrinkled and aging snowbirds and retirees circling the drain in their waning days. People dressing up and celebrating, genuine convivialness abounds with most guests. It's not somewhere else trying bring that vibe here, it's pretty authentic. It's separate from nextdoor other than shared bathrooms, so don't be surprised when you feel like your in a different world. Most people who wander between the 2 take pause and awe for a few seconds before their mood shifts to match the room. Not a place to get sloppy and party that way unless it's a closed event. It's a great, classic PS lounge for when you have 2 groups of friends who you can entertain, the steakhouse crowd for dinner and the loungers beforehand. Sunsets on the patio under the string lights and couches is rich backyard summertime vibez.

It caught our attention as we had stayed in two different Kimpton Hotels in Seattle prior. We wanted to grab a drink at the Window Bar (not knowing that was its actual name, but the conversation we had with the bartender about that window shining too much light at certain parts of the morning definitely gave me a chuckle in hindsight). We happened to be a bit early since he had not been able to finish setting up shop yet. We went ahead and waited until he was ready without rushing him because we ourselves weren't in any rush at all. Surrounded by a ton of nice interesting artwork, it was a pure joy to enjoy a drink or two in this environment. The bar can be found at the corner on the other side of the hotel concierge in plain sight from such a big space for a lobby, directly left upon entrance through the front. Since it was slow in the morning, we were able to chat it up with the bartender and even explore a bit of experimentation in the form of a particular top secret cocktail that every mixologist knows. I definitely exercised my etiquette and reading the conditions to even suggest it. He couldn't be any nicer about our time with him. So yeah, Christopher H. from 9/9/18, I don't know what you're talking about. I make it a point to visit the bar at any Kimpton location nowadays. I always seem to have a good time. But then again, I can only speak for myself. Parking: Street, unless you're a guest at the hotel. FYI: - Despite the hours on Yelp saying this place is open from 4-10pm, they might open earlier, as we joined in at around 11am or noon. But don't hold me to it. If there's somebody at the bar, you'll need to simply ask if it is open yet.
