Great restaurant, great food, the place,the decor is just so nice, the staff is extremely professional and friendly, last but not least the owners June & Jay are just fantastic people and always around to make sure you’re happy. Love dinning there and I recommend it to anyone who wants to experience fine dinning.
We had an exceptionally good meal and experience at Jillian’s tonight. Every staff person was welcoming and professional. The ambiance was just right with lovely piano music. Our food was beautifully prepared and delicious: white fish and bolonese. Even the chairs were extra comfortable! Highly recommended!
Best in the Desert! Great food and atmosphere!
This was my wife’s birthday dinner with friends. Ordered the shaved Brussels sprouts salad and it was dry, hardly any dressing. Then I ordered the swordfish entree. The fish was dry and overcooked. The manager stopped by the table and asked how everything was so I explained the problem with fish and he said nothing, then walked away. My friend ordered the grandmas chicken which was very heavy cheese with little or no flavor. We also pointed this out to the manager and again no response. With so many places to eat in this area….we probably won’t be back
With out a doubt, one of the finest dining experiences in the greater Palm Desert area. From the moment we arrived until we departed was simply wonderful. The entire staff, service, fabulous food and exquisite deserts left us speechless. An absolute pleasure, so much so, we made another reservation for next week.
Our FAVE spot for a romantic dinner on the patio. Service and food are always perfection. Treated like royalty. We are sad we have to wait for it to reopen in the Fall!
The food is always wonderful. It is by far the top fine dining restaurant in the desert. Our server, Roman, always enhances our experience. The decor and atmosphere make you feel like you are dining in someone's home. Just an amazing dining experience.
Great, fast service, and the patio area is gorgeous. The rib eye steak special was delicious. I wish they would drop the corn and beetroot from the sides that are a sample size and just increase the potato gratin and brocillini portion. The prices are also very high but the plate sizes are all big so you do get what you pay for. Overall, we had a great experience and would come back for special occasions.
Fabulous night eating on the patio. Good and service were both excellent. What a perfect night
The food is so enjoyable ... both in taste and presentation. The staff is very helpful as well as accommodating. And the atmosphere is warm and wonderful.

We had a fabulous dinner once again at Jillian's last night. The service the food and the ambiance were all amazing. We loved it and can't wait to go back when they re-open in the Fall.
We had a great experience dining here. The food was excellent — the meatball appetizer, pasta Bolognese, and rack of lamb were all outstanding. The ambiance was beautiful with amazing views, and service was attentive throughout. We were celebrating a birthday, and the “Happy Birthday” message on the table when we arrived was a really thoughtful touch. However, dessert was just okay, and there was no birthday recognition when it was served, it felt like a missed moment that could’ve made the evening even more special. Would come back.
Great overall experience. The food was nearly perfect — the meatball appetizer, pasta Bolognese, and rack of lamb were all exceptional. Ambiance was beautiful with stunning views, and service was solid. They had a nice “Happy Birthday” message on the table when we arrived, which was a thoughtful touch. However, dessert was underwhelming, and no birthday acknowledgment came with it, which felt like a missed moment. Would come back.
Disappointing. The signature fish dish can’t compete. Desert ice cream served in its melted puddle. Seated right next to the incredibly busy service door, but our wait staff didn’t use it and dropped us. Not a fan of the live music either.
Lettuce was not too fresh, limp, salad seasoning was bad, Lobster was a little chewy, Halibut was great , cream Brûlée was normal.
