Restaurants near Moorten Botanical Garden and Cactarium

A new find for me in Palm Springs despite the fact I’ve been visiting the town for more than 30 years. And what a pleasant surprise. Slightly off the beaten track and chocker with locals, Spencer’s is a rare find. Professional, friendly, laid back, this is a place for grown ups and their pets (but not their kids). Didn’t spot one mobile phone out as guests seem to enjoy laughing and talking to checking their insta accts. Fantastic food and service. Really can’t find a negative.

Food was amazing. Had the sole fish and never thought celery root puree could be so delicious. Expectation definitely exceeded there. Our waiter was awesome. Even the restroom was quite charming. The manager stopped by to say hello and chat a bit. Seems like a very well run restaurant.

We had an excellent Thanksgiving dinner, Nov 28, 2024. Food, service, ambience, wine was excellent. We ate at many Michelin Stars restaurants. Eight4Nine deserve a Michelin Star. Outstanding experience. Restaurant very popular. Thank you for a very memorable dinner.

Mr. Lyons’s is definitely my kind of restaurant. I loved my experience there. The Ambience is lovely, dark room , comfortable and beautiful booths, just a wonderful and private room. It reminds me the old glamorous movies.. I could see Frank Sinatra, Ava Gardner sitting there…. Food was good…. Great presentation. And Rusty the General Manager was such a jewel , so welcoming and kindhearted. He made the experience even more special. We just move to the dessert I am so happy to have found such a wonderful restaurant.. We have been coming here for over last few years but Mr. Lyons’s made an impression. Check it out..

Thank you - this was so nice to be in a restaurant where the music volume was not so high as to drowned out my guests. My guests love their lunch and I did as well - the Burger was fabulous!
