Kitchen in the Desert

Great place to eat in 29 palms. We reserved a table and that was necessary. There was live music. E sat in the courtyard area where most tables are and in July after a hot day it was very comfortable there. The terrace looks great. The menu is somewhat special and dishes are served as they come out of the kitchen so choose to share. This was all explained clearly by our waitress. We had Brussels sprouts, tortilla de patatas, mushroom toast, lamb chops, chicken and smash burger and a portion of coconut rice. Taste was beyond expectation. A true must visit when you are out there around Joshua Tree national park.

Very cute place, very relaxed and organic. Loved it. I went for lunch, but I think it is more fun for the evening.

We've been coming here for quite some time, but unfortunately, the quality has gone down significantly. The food lacks seasoning and flavor, and we've even been served burnt items on a few occasions. Portion sizes have also become noticeably smaller, which really doesn't justify the prices anymore. Sadly, this was our last visit — it's just no longer worth the experience for us.

The food was delicious, the drinks and service were outstanding, and the ambiance was exactly what we love.

Such a cool vibe, the food was great, and the service was fantastic. They were so friendly and efficient and welcoming. I could eat there everyday!

This restaurant is a fantastic little find. My husband and I shared a summer salad, the lamb pops, jerk chicken and some coconut rice. The lamb was juicy and flavoursome, the jerk not too spicy, and the salad was dressed just right. We finished with a homemade key lime pie which was to die for. We liked it so much we immediately booked for the following night.

Don't hesitate, make the reservation. The setting alone is perfection. The food is amazing. Even my teenage daughters approved (they loved the burgers and the Instagram worthy backdrop to their pics). Definitely a “must do” in Twentynine Palms.

Delicious food, tapas style, Hanger steak was perfect and so was the jerk chicken. Big fans of Boo's Pies too!

Waitress had an attitude the whole night. Our food took forever over 45mins and she tried to take our steak when we weren't finished without asking lol. Food tasted decent but the service made me never want to come back. If you go, hopefully you have better luck.

It wasn't the worst but it wasn't the best. Service and food was mid. Spent my birthday here, wasn't impressed.

Service was fabulous, and the mushroom tartine was DIVINE. Drinks are great too 💗 we sat inside but I feel it would have been equally amazing sitting outdoors as well.

We came here for lunch and loved the meal, the music, and just the really quality kinda low key lovely setting. We loved it so much we came back for dinner! It was a 90s hip hop music night out in the garden which was a little loud for my man but I enjoyed and we both greatly enjoyed the meal. I'm very impressed with the wine list, great coffee too!

Wonderful artistic concept out in the desert. High level of creativity from the decor to the food. Service was wonderful and dishes were tapas style, taken from different cuisines and given a a tiny Peruvian twist in the seasonings. How lucky to be able to eat such great food in the middle of Joshua tree. Just exceptional.

Service was great and the food was really tasty. I stopped by an hour and a bit more before they closed to prep for dinner time and the servers were so attentive and made the late lunch a nice relaxing lunch for a 1 person seating. Affogato was delish as well!

Fun and creative food choices; very friendly service; peaceful ambience on a Tuesday evening.
