“Extremely delicious. The tator tots were perfect. Crisp on the outside and so soft on the inside!! I was extremely shocked at how good my meal was even when it was a simple dish ! I also got pancakes and they were extremely delicious! I was caught so off guard by this hidden restaurant! The service was great and it was so easy to find !“

“Was very impressed with First Class Catering. We were a last minute request in to them and they were able to accommodate our group perfectly. Everyone was friendly and professional. Will definitely use them again and the food was delicious. (Mediterranean one night and steak the second night).Thank you Chef Michael and team!“

“Nice chain restaurant with value, especially the happy hour menu! The drinks were great. I had an amazing Lavender Drop! Okay, now I know you’ll be disappointed that I’m only including one photo for this review but it’s the one thing you all need to try food-wise….. the sliders! They were great!!! “ SLIDE” in FOR HAPPY HOUR! The prices for happy hour were decent.“

“First time patron. Appetizer selection that compliments all entrees on the menu -- we had calamari steaks strip served with 3 dif dipping sauces Scrumptous! Date Salad was healthy & flavorful. Zia, THANK YOU for the perfect dining experience while we enjoyed a breezy lunch on the patio with some relaxing tunes- see you next time!“

“We really enjoyed this restaurant. It was legitimately just relaxing to sit on the balcony and take our time with great drinks and great food. The waitress was great (Amanda). Enjoyed the Mai Tai, the coconut shrimp, and the Mahi Mahi tacos. Forewarning, the food is bigger than you might initially anticipate. I ran out of room, which makes me safe because it’s all so good. There aren’t a ton of vegetarian options, but there are a couple.“

“Outstanding food and service here - traditional menu and consistently great dishes for every course all around. They have excellent red meat and seafood options alike, with the short ribs and lamb being outstanding main courses. The wait staff is universally attentive even with some obnoxiously entitled clientele - I admire their patience and skill!The interior is rather noisy, and the vibe is… grandparents with money for cosmetic surgery and posh golf club memberships.Parking: Free valet for all cars at this restaurant“

“My wife and I stopped for a light lunch at the Seeet Basil Eatery in Palm Desert. We were greeted by Martin with a big smile. He showed us to a great table outside. It was a beautiful day. My wife suggested the Caprese salad. That was a wonderful choice. Fresh mixed greens with yummy soft Burrata and excellent balsamic. This fantastic salad came with heirloom tomatoes and some red onion. We asked Martin for a little fresh Parmesan to top our salad and a little olive oil on the side. This was an outstanding lunch, honestly one of the best Caprese salads I’ve ever had. I’m so glad my wife decided to stop here. I left Martin a great tip he earned every penny of it. When you get good food and good service be sure to leave a great tip! I would highly recommend the Sweet Basil California Eatery to anyone. This was truly a 5 star experience!“

“Such a great restaurant ?. From the minute you walk in, you feel the welcoming energy and the hip vibe of Boozehounds. The mixologist offerings are exceptional ?, with the Cesar salad and fish n chips fresh and yummy. Go there, n see what I mean.?“

“Completely pleasant from start to finish. Server Jessica was efficient and friendly. Great menu which included both a la carte and prix fix menu. We shared an excellent shrimp cocktail and trio of Demi Tasse soups. The Asparagus with Boursin and Duck Egg was delicious as was the Beef Stroganoff. Perfect table service and cheerful hostess all made for a special evening. We sat in the dining room, adjacent was the lively bar and high top section. All was tastefully decorated. Definitely recommend!“

“I like the vibe, the music band and the food there! Our server Daniel did a great job from the beginning till the end. So far, my fav are salmon, scampi shrimps, and their delicious pistachio cake. However, I would not recommend Saviche. I'm going to try more dishes there. Cheers!“

“What a great experience! First time to try this new restaurant to Palm Springs. Have followed these chefs for years - from Border Grill in LA days. Impressed with the food, service and environment. Heard the dining room was loud - so we choose to sit in the lounge area which was terrific. I had the ribeye and partner had the chicken. Both good choices. The biscuits to start were a treat - the honey was amazing. Prices are high - but on par with other fine dining restaurants, these days. We look forward to a return visit soon.“

“This place is never quite full, but has a potential cool vibe. Shishito elote are awesome starters, but could be a bit more. Short ribs are bomb, especially the sauce. If they added onions or mushrooms to the potato compote under it would be 5/5z. General feedback is portions could be a bit larger, not Cheesecake size, but enough to leave you full. Nearly there, but not quite for big boys. So many veggie options for plant based friends, even though they were out of the “crab “ cakes on our last visit there. Definitely a spot to check out for visitors or natives. Love this place.“

“We went on a very busy Friday night and place was very very nice and Our Male Waiter was so great. The food was fantastic. We sat on the patio with a 3 1/3 year old and new baby boy and was perfect. Short ribs were outstanding. We will return.Dietary restrictions: My Daughter is Gluten Free and was not a issue.“
