“Some places you discover. Others you return to — year after year, like a ritual you'd never dare break. Counter Reformation in Palm Springs is the latter, and every visit only deepens the devotion.

Dark, intimate, and dripping with atmosphere, this is a wine bar that takes the craft seriously without taking itself too seriously. The vibe is effortlessly cool — candlelit and unhurried, the kind of room where time loosens its grip and conversation flows as freely as the wine.

Speaking of which — Britney. The woman is a gift. As sommelier, she curates this list with a connoisseur's precision and a true lover's instinct. She remembers what you liked, anticipates what you'll adore, and somehow always lands on the exact pour you didn't know you needed. Her knowledge is vast, but it's her warmth that truly elevates the experience. In Britney's hands, every glass tells a story.

Year after year, Counter Reformation earns its place as one of our most cherished stops in the desert. It never disappoints. It only gets better.

See you again next year.“

“We went last night for happy hour and had a delicious charcuterie tray and bottle of wine. The staff is welcoming and the place has a cool vibe. We will definitely return next time we visit.“

“My friend and I were just looking for a fun pool day, and we ended up at ACE. It did not disappoint! We went on a Friday, and there were plenty of lounge chairs available. The pool isn't very big, but it had a nice, relaxing vibe.

The food was actually my favorite part! I had the burger, and it was delicious. The only downside was that the $35 day pass felt a little pricey, but overall, we had a great time and would definitely come back for another relaxing pool day.“

“I had the spicy miso ramen bowl. Delicious! The broth was rich and flavorful. Spicy but not too spicy. Noodles were the perfect texture and cooked just right. A tip for the owners, I have driven past this restaurant many times and thought it was no longer open because the windows are so tinted that you can’t see the “open” sign lit up. I would recommend stronger visibility to see that you are open. Loved the robot service, nice touch.“

“Service was top notch. The Tapas was phenomenal. Ordered the paella it was awesome! There were 6 of us and we got the paella for 4 and with the tapas we got it was more than enough... great wine selection, and we all split a bunuel for dessert that had V a crabs and a raspberry sauce that was out of this world.... the decor was also amazing, the vibe was casual but intimate...200% recommend“

“This place was absolutely great. Steve our server was super friendly and the food was spot on. Will definitely come back again.“
