This is the type of place I almost don’t want to write a review because it’s so good that I want it to remain a hidden gem. But the people deserve to know… this place rocks. The food is unique and delicious, the patio is stunning, and the service personable. It’s everything you want in a local restaurant and more. Don’t miss this place!
Good place below the museum.
Lovely place. Very kind staff. I tried the curry chicken sandwich and it was delicious. Would definitely go again.

Livs Palm Springs is a delightful restaurant located within the Palm Springs Art Museum, offering a space that is both tasteful and spacious. It has quickly become a favorite spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch, providing a welcoming atmosphere that elevates the dining experience. The space is situated on the museum's lower level, making it an ideal place to enjoy a meal while taking in the art and surroundings. The environment is quiet, shaded, and comfortable, even on hot Palm Spring summer days, thanks to the shade and the sound of a water fountain, creating a feeling of being in a controlled, almost protective environment that keeps the desert heat at bay.
The service at Livs is described as superb—quick, friendly, and attentive, making guests feel well taken care of. The food options are varied, with both breakfast and lunch items available. A variety of dishes are enjoyed by visitors, who find the food to be delicious and beautifully presented. For breakfast, an omelette is recommended, while for lunch, the chicken salad sandwich and Portuguese green salad are highly praised for their freshness and flavor. Many diners express surprise at the quality of the food, especially since the place is often mistaken for a simple cafe. One reviewer noted that the staff seemed unaware of the restaurant's true stature, mistakenly describing it as just a cafe, which can lead to misunderstandings about its culinary strength.
The restaurant also stands out as a hidden gem, a place that should be better known and more widely appreciated. Its culinary strength is comparable to the quality of its atmosphere, which enhances the overall dining experience. The space and food make it a great addition to the museum, offering a perfect spot to relax, enjoy good food, and appreciate art. Visitors find it to be a place worth returning to, eager to enjoy the variety of tasty options and the inviting environment. Overall, Livs Palm Springs is a fabulous place for those looking for a well-rounded dining experience in a beautiful, art-filled setting, with excellent service and delicious food that leaves a lasting impression.
