    The best patio dining in the valley. The experience wouldn’t be the same without Mark’s great music!

    Once again, a dining experience that is truly unmatched. The most friendly and helpful staff from the valets, the hostesses and waitstaff up through the manager. The food was spot on and cooked to perfection. Coupled with the wonderful atmosphere this is truly the gem in the California desert. As a foodie who hails from the NY/NJ metro area, where great restaurants are commonplace, I truly appreciate this spectacular spot!

    Sat on the patio, absolutely beautiful setting. Wonderful guitarist. Great service. I had the chicken marsala and loved it. My husband had the Bolognese and didn’t care for it and my daughter had the fish special and thought it was dry. It was our birthdays and they presented us with beautiful chocolate desserts. Overall, a great experience, but wish the food was a little better.

    We absolutely love the ambience at Arnold Palmers. Three dining style options (all the same menu) promise there’s something for everyone. The elegant bar is classy but casual. The dining room is elegant and more formal. The Patio is the place to be! Soft, live instrumental music every night, an amazing fire pit that provides warmth and ambiance. Beautiful views too! The food never disappoints. The menu has variety and everything is homemade. Service is always great! Professional, personal and extremely accommodating! Our favorite date night restaurant.
