16 Best Wine Bars in Palm Springs

“Oh the best place to go! Incredible food, wine, and ambience! Such a cozy, inviting atmosphere…I highly recommend.“

“it was your typical cold rainy night in the desert. Really it was and that is certainly rare! We were in town for an auto auction and love Counter Reformation. \nWalked into a fairly empty bar (that soon changed) and our incredible excellent server Brittany took over with wine and food recommendations. The wine was an excellent 2023 Muscadet white and then came out their signature bread. The food is wonderful. Once the bar fills up it's very common to share conversation with your fellow diners as to what they are eating. \nThis is a must visit dining experience in PS!“

“My girlfriend and I heard about Leanna and Miguel's show on Monday nights and decided to make a reservation to enjoy an evening out. Our first time visiting was delightful other than our server forgetting about one of our entrees. We enjoyed the great selection of wines and the atmosphere. The music was also wonderful so we decided to make a reservation for the following Monday and invite a few friends. This nights experience was very different from our first. From the very b“

“We went twice during our visit for happy hour and ended up ordering off the fixed price menu. Everything was delicious and delivered with an attentive and friendly staff. Highly recommend if you want a great meal at a good value. Plus the house Pinot Grigio was smooth.“

“Had the most wonderful experience with Freddie. The food, service, and company was outstanding.“

“Miros is considered by most to be among the top five best restaurants in Palm Springs and with good reason. The atmosphere is warm and comfortably elegant, service is friendly and impeccable. Cuisine is exceptional with comfort food that is refined and clearly farm to table. Expect an absolutely wonderful dining experience every time. Whether dining in the lovely interior, dining room, or the starlit outdoor patio, service is always gracious and attentive. Special thanks and kudos to Alison behind bar for her omnipresent and delightful smile and exceptional service.“

“Fabulous highly recommend.“

“I can't say enough about the vibe, people, space, and staff. The staff are wonderful, they won me over because a friend accidentally knocked over my martini that I literally had two sips from it. This happened right near the bar and the bar tender who made my the original martini saw this and started making me another and when I went to pay she said no. That is really amazing. And the other bartender was so nice as well. We were there because a friend reserved the back part for a party and it was the perfect space. There were about 30 people and had food catered in, such a great time. Was my first time and looking forward to going back.“

“Excellent vibe, cocktails of the chain and food exquisite 🙌❤️“

“Loved, loved, loved this wine tasting room! I walked in at 3:45 (closing at 4pm) and the owner, Mark was very open and welcoming. Loved all 5 of the wines I tasted and happily joined the wine club. Looking forward to spending much more time here!“

“Dined at Amala's last friday night, they're doing a soft opening while they get everything in place and it's outstanding. The setting is so cool at the water park. The decor is amazing, the chef is a pro and everything is fresh and interesting with a ton of flavor. This is going to be the place to go in Palm Springs.“

“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.“

“First timer report: Spencer's is located on a dead end street, at the base of the mountain behind it. To be clear, the restaurant was built right at the base of the mountain, as in “you couldn't get closer” — very dramatic with beautiful lighting in and out of the restaurant. From the moment we walked in to end of our experience, staff service was perfect: every request we made was quickly fulfilled by some very service-oriented people who also worked well as a team. Our server was “Simon,” who was exceptional in his knowledge of food and wine. His timing was perfect, too: he paced the service, beautifully, never rushed, never waiting. What a pro. Now, to the food. When someone says, describing the food, that “everything is good here,” it's usually a stretch. I can say that the food we ordered was just sooo goooood! Example: the crab cakes? Delicate. After commenting that the crab cakes may have been the best I have ever had, Simon shared that they are 100% crab. I will add: 100% crab that you will want to order, again, and again. The beet salad, short ribs and pan-fried fish dishes just continued the joy. Add some cocktails and wine, finish it all with a shared carrot cake—and we left the place knowing some people know what they are doing! BTW: multiple seating areas including many technically outside, but more like a nice dining room with the roof removed. The outside spaces are connected to the inside spaces with glass walls. Also, whether you were inside or outside, most of the dining spaces are relatively intimate. This is nice because you never feel like you're in a large, vacuous space. Also, most of the tables had propane heat. As another example of the high level of service at this place: Staff asked us if the heat setting was comfortable? As another example of the high level of service at this place, staff asked us if the heat level was comfortable. Thanks, Spencer's, for a great night out!“

“Very nice service. Super yummy food. We had a great night out.“

“This the second time I have been to LG’s. The first time was last year to celebrate my father in law’s 90 birthday. I was so impressed that I wanted to celebrate my 70 th birthday at this restaurant as well. We live in the Bay Area but made the trip down with my family to celebrate at this fabulous place. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. The steaks are the best I have ever had(and I am a meat lover). I would definitely recommend this restaurant for any special occasion or to just go to dinner if you are lucky enough to live close. Thanks to the staff (especially our server Edgar) for helping to make my celebration extra special. It was an evening I wouldn’t forget. 😎“

“We love coming to this restaurant with are grandchildren. The view is spectacular, the food is the best, but what makes it even better is the service. Our server Wendy was the best; she made the whole experience so enjoyable. Thank you to everyone.“
