    An excellent restaurant! First visit after many years living in Palm Springs. Ambiance, service and food were all excellent. We sat on patio and they offered comfy wraps on each chair to ward off any chill as well as heaters. Beautiful plantings and landscaping made you feel you were at a lovely restaurant somewhere in Europe. The service was attentive but not intrusive. Food was fresh, ingredients were top tier, and presentation was clean and simple . I recommend highly.

    I am going thru the menu with different entries and so far they have all been excellent. My wife is a vegan and she has been taken great care of with different slants of a vegan dish. It’s a great improvement from before. Seems like Le Vallauris has gone thru a wonderful transition with a new chief who cares for all their clients. A+ for making Le Vallauris more vegan friendly! Oh the lobster salad is I think better than before not sure I can put a finger on why but something is a bit different and more flavor plus if u like caviar or oysters they have the best!

Discover Palm Springs

As the desert retreat of the Rat Pack, retired presidents and five-star generals, Palm Springs retains the cool midcentury charm that drew yesterday's celebrities to play tennis, golf and swim. You might still spot a celebrity today eating lavender-flavored pound cake with basil ice cream on the patio of a former Hollywood star's estate. Great seafood is unexpected in the middle of the desert, but Palm Springs offers several excellent raw bars and fresh fish restaurants. Traditional Italian diners are another desert surprise, and you'll also find some wonderful pizza parlors in the area. Palm Springs is a place of hidden oases and patios, which conceal fresh, farm-to-table California food served by chef-inspired kitchens.
