We had a very good meal. The salmon tacos were amazing. We enjoyed a nice visit with friends over a leisurely lunch while sitting in the shade of a cabana - how perfect. We must do this again - and more often.

One of us was vegan and they brought salmon tacos when we were excited to try the cauliflower. Waited 30 minutes for chocolate chips cookies. The bill we signed is not itemized which is odd.

We had reservations for 11am expecting a brunch menu however we were surprised that there was only a lunch menu which began at 11am. Food was very good but wanted some brunch options

Not a great new years dinner. One server for umpteen tables?? I felt bad for the sweet waitress who was clearly over her head. And the young bus boy who was literally running from the tables to the kitchen and back... It took forever to be served warm martinis. We were with good friends and made the most of it but sadly it was a bad night for chi chis.

Came here for Sunday brunch with a friend. The food was amazing, and the outside patio by the pool was very chill and relaxing. Drinks were prepared well, and the waiters/food servers were super nice and accommodating to our needs. Highly recommend this place! I will definitely be back when visiting Palm Springs.

This used to be a trendy place with upscale share plates and an interesting wine selection. It is now barely functioning as a third-rate hotel restaurant with a menu that seemed more appropriate for room service than dining. Staff were friendly but not well trained and the Caesar salad tasted like it was poured out of a grocery store bag. Would never go back - and locals seem to know it's bad because it was all but empty on a Friday night.

Amazing John and the crew always hit it out of the park. The Service is terrific. The food is always delicious portions are big. Congrats Chi Chi is by far my favorite go to in PS. Thanks Chi Chi for being so consistent.

Perfect!! Birthday dinner - Eloy and all the servers and bartenders absolutely lovely, gracious, kind and accommodating. Fresh and delicious fish tacos, amazing homemade salsa and the watermelon margarita with a tajin rim - outstanding!!!!! Thank you for a lovely experience. 10/10

My fiancé and I came in from L.A. for the weekend and found a hidden gem - delicious chilaquiles, a proper double espresso, fresh squeezed juice and a chill, beautiful outdoor poolside patio to enjoy it all. Quick service with excellent suggestions. This is going to be our go-to every time we visit!

L'endroit est superbe mais le personnel n'est pas à la hauteur. On ne nous a pas proposé le menu spécial contrairement aux autres tables. La nourriture vraiment médiocre. Le serveur à rajouté des produits sur la note que nous n'avions pas pris. Nous avons été pris pour des touristes français afin de nous arnaquer ! Pas de chance car nous habitons le désert et ne reviendrons plus.

Locals and our first time, gave it a go for restaurant week and was pleasantly surprised. The food was great and the service wonderful. We sat outside and the ambiance was great and not too loud. We would return for full dinner service or lunch in the future.

Was really looking forward to dining here but everything just didn't work. Nice setting, typical Palm Springs but lacks a bit of charm. Service was not bad but the kitchen was very slow considering there were only 2 other tables seated. The double breaded pork chop was very dry (server mentioned the kitchen likes to make sure the pork is well cooked) the turnips were tasty and the corn bread was good but broken into tiny crumbs and not enough for flavor or texture. A nice small portion of it would be much nicer or at least broken into bigger crumbs, or like croutons.My husband had the salmon which was very good but again the composition of the dish needs a lot more attention at the proportions and what's on the plate. The salmon was topped with the gremolata and underneath was about a teaspoon of the poblano crema and that's it. Nice asparagus, potatoes or any other vegetable needs to be there especially for how much it is. Don't think we'll be back or recommending this place.

Terrible experiece. Service was incredibly slow. Our waiter took over 20 minutes to get us a round of drinks because he “forgot”. My wife ordered a “fresh squeezed” juice that they brought to the table in a plastic bottle. It obviously came from the local grocery store. Our main dish salads were close to 20$ but it was a side salad portion. The table they put us at was under this tent that trapped the heat. It was really uncomfortable. When I asked to be moved they said they couldn't even though the tables I wanted to be seated at didn't get filled the entirety of our visit. I would never come back. Quite frankly any restaurant that's connected to a hotel in the Palm Springs area is a rip off. You should go to a stand alone restaurant if you plan to visit this beautiful area.
