Le Vallauris Restaurant

I dinned at ‘le vallauris’ in Palm Springs a month ago. I was being charged the wrong bill, I had accidentally paid for something I’ve never had, business agreed for a refund, never got it. Terrible management and service.

Lovely experience from beginning to end. Warm and sincere service and cuisine is out of this world.

Service was underwhelming for the price of the meal. Food was very good. The space was romantic, but the service was lacking for an establishment that wants to be more than a 3 star experience.

A fab experience! Thank you! As usual, the servers (Raymond and Andrew) and managers / hostess (Kate) were terrific!

We ordered beets salad which was very bland. The scallops smelled very fishy and was not appetizing to eat. The veal medallion was good but came cold as the service was so slow. Though the server was nice, it seemed he was the only one running around and serving several tables. Restaurant wasn't what I expected, I had higher hopes.

What a wonderful experience, the menu was fantastic. The service can be a little slow, but not because of incompetence, sometimes I think they just want to give you more time... The lamb chops were amazing, I would also love to come back and get the veal medallions. My wife had the escargot and the duck liver. But you have to save room for the dessert and get the soufflé. I repeat even if you are not a dessert person you have to get the soufflé!

Our group of good friends has a wonderful first experience! We will be back every time we visit PS. Raymond our waiter was the great, made us feel right at home. All the positive reviews are true!

The presentation of every single dish was amazing. We literally ordered every single items in the appetizer list and loved it all: our only feed back is that the lobster salad should have more lobster. Our fav were tuna tartar, liver mousse and duck confit. David, our busboy was spectacular. He was so attentive, friendly and helpful. He gave us food recommendations, kept our table clean between dishes and did it all with a smile on his face the entire time.

Just the most amazing dining experience in the whole valley. I adore the people, the food, the ambience. Never make it to Palm Springs without visiting Le Vallauris!

The food was incredibly disappointing and bland from start to finish. I was celebrating my anniversary and it was a huge fail.

As has our experience been before one of the better places to dine. Service, food and atmosphere never disappoint.

The service was wonderful and friendly, and they shared stories about the history of the property. Let me say that the tuna in meringue was the craziest, most unexpected, and wonderfully delicious dish I have eaten in a long time!!! My daughter, mother, and I could not rave about it more. We asked for the middle-priced caviar, and when they were out of it, they gave us the higher priced one for the lower price. We all three got the veal and ravioli which was delicious, and the chocolate souffle was subtle but did not disappoint. It was an expensive meal because my mom wanted the Dom, but it was a night we will remember for a long time.

I have been going to this restaurant since it opened in 1974. It was a fine dining establishment where the food and service were always consistent. I have been to the restaurant 4 times since it was sold to a new owner in 2021 and unfortunately it just isn't the same. There certainly is no dress code so you would never know you were dining in a fine dining establishment. The service was very erratic and certainly unprofessional at times. Pouring tap water into a glass with sparkling water, anchovies on a salad when a special request was made to hold the anchovies, having your dinner served with no silverware on the table, having a waiter ask you how your dinner is while pouring wine at an adjacent table, etc, etc. Too many other things to mention. Unfortunately it is time to cross this restaurant off of our list as one of our favorites.

We had the best time. Jonathan was our server and was very attentive and knowledgeable. He made us laugh the whole time! The caviar was great. Would definitely return!
