50 Best American Restaurants near North Palm Springs

“My favorite stop when driving to Arizona. I love there pancakes. Now I can get my favorite omelet and add pancakes for $2.00. I love their servers they really work as a team. Their cooks always make my food perfect.“

“I enjoyed a wonderful experience at Farm in Palm Springs for an early Mother's Day dinner. We had delightful three hour six course dinner in a magical setting with live music and delicious fare. PROS: The hostesses graciously greeted us and sat us a bit earlier than our reservation time. Had a nice table in one of the rooms with a fireplace and a large mirror. The saxophonist played and the sound poured in with great acoustics from the speakers. The amuse bouch had avocado, so I could not eat it, so my mom enjoyed all two. My dad could not eat solid foods due to mouth surgery. The bread course had warm fresh items and silky salty butter. The beet salad, melon salad, and corn soup provided earthy, tart, sweet, and creamy bites and tastes. The varied textures provided a kaleidescope of fresh tastes. The baked brie offered sweet and savory mixes of grilled bread, pear, and date spread! The lemon sorbet palate cleanser provided a balanced experience that did its job. The salmon entree provided an exquisitely pan fried crispy and juicy flaky fillet. The creamy dijon mustard sauce complimented the protein perfectly. The sweet peppers offered a wonderful crunch. The swiss chard added some bitter contrast to the garlic potatoes. The wonderfully bitter Citron crepe provided a nice end to a culinary cruise. Crystal took great photos in the garden. Gilbert was professional and affable. CONS: They asked me so many times for extra drinks. I had to prompt them multiple times to fill the water glasses and refills on tea and diet coke. They charged me full price for mashed potatoes, soup, and sorbet for my dad's meal. I get it. OVERALL: I highly recommend this restaurant for a magical evening meal inspired by Provence, France.“

“We had incredible dinner here, I think our favorite of Palm Springs! The ambience is incredible, such a peaceful, beautiful outdoor garden and very romantic. The food was so fresh and flavorful, and they were very accommodating for dietary requests (vegan). And to top it off, our server Gabe was so kind and knowledgeable and really made our whole experience perfect!“

“Thoroughly enjoyed our experience on Saturday, January 17. Our waitress was Marlene and so truly added to our evening! Kudos to Marlene! Loved the table lighting too“

“Our 2nd time at Spencer’s, and it certainly won’t be the last. Service is extraordinary, the food exceptional, and the ambiance is wonderful. I highly recommend it. I write for a local paper in Missouri -where I despair of the quality displayed by so many restaurants. No wonder I was eager to get back to Spencer’s on our recent trip to Palm Desert.“

“This place really lives up to the hype. All of the drinks and food we got were really amazing. Standouts were the round of dirty martinis and the pork chop. Our server Ciara was also very attentive and seemed to really enjoy working there. Will definitely be back.“

“Great entertainment and fantastic service“

“An amazing setting outside near the pool. Service was excellent! The food was delicious and uniquely presented and prepared. We had the sea bass and chicken mallard. Both were very good! The beet salad was so different but delicious. Had the coconut dessert for my birthday. A very wonderful way to celebrate my special day. You won't disappointed.“

“We love Bongo Johnnys! Great food, great service. ❤️“

“First time in many years I went to Elmer's for breakfast. I have missed this gem of Palm Springs. Tried the German Pancakes today. Utterly delicious. Our server recommended the lemon flavor and included her tip on how to enjoy them. Spot on recommendation. I, then, noticed through observation that many of the diners were enjoying the same breakfast, some lemon, some strawberry, some lingenberry, and some the combo. I suggest a pairing with the combo of eggs and sausage (can't forget the protein). Oh, and don't forget your coffee. Thank You to the staff, it was a very enjoyable visit.“

“Awesome food 😋 👌 we enjoy it so much!“

“Had a fantastic dinner Friday nite and enjoyed seeing old friends and meeting Kerri the owner. E. Billy Thompson was singing and always brings couples to the dancing floor. Be sure to visit Nick’s Bistro at Date Palm CC open to the public.“

“The ambience was very relaxing!“

“I saw Wilma & Frieda's on an episode of Guy Fieri's "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives...so I had to try it while I was in town. Watching the process of how W&F makes their housemade short ribs made my mouth water, and me want to take the 2 hour drive from San Diego...\n\n$21 Short Rib Melt Sandwich...Here it was! The short rib sandwich I saw on TV was now in my hands...and it was good. Just good. Not great. The flavors were good, the short rib was flavorful and tasty, but I wish there was more of it. Came with some nice crispy tots.\n\n$7 Blueberry Breakfast Tart...W&F's housemade "Pop Tart" pastry was a cute, whimsical, sweet, and lovely dessert pastry.\n\nGood food, not great, and bit pricy for the portion and quality. Maybe it was overhyped in my brain from the TV show...never meet your heroes?“

“Course is in great condition, very nice layout, great staff.“

“So I was seated immediately. The hostess and waiters were really quick and nice. The cooks were often not at the omelet counter, so people often waited a few minutes. The food was decent. The waffles and French toast were not too good, dry and overseasoned. The rest was good though. For a quick large meal, it was worth it.“

“Highly recommend if looking for something a bit more decent but still relaxed and affordable. Lovely atmosphere with live music on and nice hum of chatter.. food was tasty and wholesome we had soup to start and pot roast for main.. cosy bar area for watching the sports too and a well stocked bar.. restaurant overlooks the pool and mountains in background.. we were not members but felt very welcomed“

“The nitro cold brew was delightful.My wife and I weren't happy with the pastries. However, the staff were most friendly and graciously offered me a refund. I am quite satisfied with this, so five stars for good service, good vibes, good coffee!I'll return.“

“Food and and service outstanding. Was there for dinner last night. Trio has undergone some great changes. I truly recommend it.“

“Came in for some drinks before dinner and the vibe was so good we never got dinner, lol!

Sat at the bar, had a Negroni and a martini with the tuna tartare, which was perfection on a plate. Our bartender was amazing and ended up sitting next to a couple of regulars who knew absolutely everyone on staff, which to me says it all!“

“There is good food, there is great food, and once in a great while you hit that place that not only has great food, but amazing service, owner and staff. Those moments really hit, and this was one of those moments. Hint, they open at 4, get in line at least by 3:30.“

“Okay I had really low expectations of this restaurant after reading some reviews but I had to dine here to use some F&B credit I had. It turned out to be a very satisfying meal!

I went on a Saturday noon. It’s quite empty just a few tables were occupied. I ordered steak salad ($25) and it was amazing!!! The steak was cooked to perfection and the salad portion was generous.

My partner got steak and fries )
($30) and it was delicious too. Fries were crispy I couldn’t stop eating lol.

Our waitress was also very welcoming (forgot her name but she had some tattoos on her arms).

Bloody Mary was just average so I don’t recommend it. Other than that I think this place deserves a solid 4.“

“Went here to celebrate my son's graduation from college. We had a fantastic experience. We started off with some appetizers drinks. I had the avocado taco salad. The food was excellent. We all indulged in a mai tai, they were perfect. We can't wait to dine here again. The atmosphere was great, our server was very pleasant. The manager even came over to ask how everything was and asked if we needed anything.“

“Great Breakfast & drinks.“

“If you're trying to get into Farm and want an even more upscale alternative, Front Porch is the place for you. I'm loathe to leave this review, mostly because I don't want to make this gem any more popular than it already is. But if you want a select menu of gourmet goodies from upscale sandwiches to one of the best baked bries, this is it. The artisinal cocktails and super efficient, friendly staff make it a fantastic spot to stop for a nice drink and a delightful meal.“

“Alyina provided excellent service. We enjoyed the double western cheeseburger with onionrings, carnivore pizza, bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers, and an Elderflower Gin Fizz. Everything was delicious! The atmosphere is light and airy... great find.“

“My friends and I needed a girl time coffee date which ended up being brunch . All of our food was really good . And so was our iced lattes . I had the chicken sandwich which was amazing, the flavors SO good . Next time I will try the French fries over salad though .“

“5 star service and killer flavors. Great job!! Weekly stop for sure now“

“Great food and family feeling customer service.“

“Love the food here-so creative and incredibly tasty!“

“Wonderful Food and Service. Everything was Outstanding !“

“Iconic Palm Springs restaurant! Menu is a little tired, could use some updating to be more hip. Great service and can't beat the view. A must if you're in town. You'll need to make sure your reservation aligns with the tram timing. It leaves every hour on the hour. It boards 10 min early, takes about 10 minutes to the top. It's quite a bit cooler 8500 feet above ground so bring a jacket or hoodie and maybe wear pants. Tennis shoes if you want to walk around the trails up there while you wait for your reservation.“

“It was a pleasure to work with Benjah Raphael. He was responsive to all questions, dependable and reliable in accomplishing the task at hand.
