    Wonderful experience. We were stranded in Palm Springs for an extra day because of the East Coast blizzard, so we decided to go to dinner here on a whim. Excellent food, great service -- and Susan Feniger checked in on everyone who was there. Highly recommend.

    We love coming back to Alice B. This was our third visit and every time it's delightful and the food is amazing. A bonus is of course when Susan Feniger is there herself, she is the kindest and most generous person who will always walk from table to table to welcome and greet everyone to make sure everyone is enjoying their meal. I would highly recommend to order biscuits, the chef is the best at making them whether with chocolate for brunch or cheddar and honey for dinner, absolutely amazing. The food is super fresh, the menu changes frequently on top of daily specials, the atmosphere is light, friendly but elegant and the restaurant has a lot of art on display, which makes it a great place to dine. The team and service are super friendly, we very much enjoy every visit.

    Alice B is such a fantastic restaurant and a great addition to the Palm Springs dining scene. The food is 5 stars all the way - the seeded chicken, the apple date salad and the Cheddar biscuits were all home runs. Cocktails are a big hit -love the grapefruit mezcal drink. The deserts are over the moon - the winter fruit was such a treat and the caramel pot de creme were our table's fave with one member of our group claiming it was one of the best deserts they ever had. The service was excellent. The ambience is Palm springs glamour without the stuffiness. Truly a top notch dining experience!

    After seeing some of the hype for this restaurant online, I’ve wanted to visit. We were able to get a Saturday brunch reservation and it didn’t disappoint. We took the server’s recommendations (her name was Nancy) and had the special, smash burger, and grilled cheese/tomato soup…plus a variety of the cocktails, and had their biscuit as an appetizer. All were fantastic, service was very attentive, but not overbearing, and it was a really special day. I’m looking forward to visiting again (and again and again). My new go to spot in Palm Springs!
