- NNickPalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •98 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoIt's a great place with a lot if energy in the bar. We were a little concerned about the noise level in the bar on a busy holiday night but the acoustics were great. We even had a nice conversation with the people sitting next to us. You just can't go wrong sitting in the bar listening to the music surrounded by the most interesting people in the valley while enjoying a great selection of cocktails and epicurean delights .More infoMastro's Steakhouse - Palm DesertPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Palm Desert•4.6
- GGailSouth Carolina •15 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoWe were passing through Palm Desert on Christmas Eve and were able to secure a reservation at Cafe Des Beauz-Arts…and were not disappointed. The servers were very attentive and upbeat (despite having to work on Christmas Eve!). I had the Sand Dabs Picatto and the flavors were wonderful…although maybe a little too fishy tasting. Beet Salad and French Onion soup were delectable. A non-alcoholic wine/mocktail selection would have been nice. Raspberry crème brule and cappuccinos were perfect endings to the meal!More infoCafé Des Beaux-ArtsPrice: Expensive• French• Palm Desert•4.8
