- NNancyVIPMinneapolis - St. Paul •21 reviews4.0Dined todayChris was our server and he was absolutely wonderful -- added so much to our experience. The food was generally really good. The veal was very tender and the spinach was truly perfect. The side of mashed potatoes were uninspiring at best. This is a lovely venue for a special occasion.More infoRistorante Mamma GinaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Palm Desert•4.5

- RRichardVIPPalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •73 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoLoved the restaurant, the food and the service. Prices, especially given the fact it was Valentine's Day, were very reasonable. They kept to the original menu with a few added specials which was refreshing. Most places go to a restricted menu with elevated prices. My only negative comment concern how they do or don't inform diners of certain prices. Server asks if you'd like bread & butter. Your response is "Sure" because it's complimentary but not here. It's a $5.00 up charge. Reasonable, yes, but totally unexpected. All menu items are reasonable priced and well prepared. They have a nice wine list, heavy on French wines (figures) but at very competitive prices. All in all I'd say this is a dining delight that we'll come back to again and again all the while remembering there's no free breand and butter.More infoFrench Rotisserie CafePrice: Moderate• French• Palm Desert•4.7
- DDianaSeattle / Eastern Washington •29 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoCastelli’s is our favorite Italian restaurant. We have bring family and friends here for more than 30 years. The service staff is quick, professional and knowledgeable. My favorite is their veal dishes since that is a dish I do not usually prepare. My husband loved the chicken Parmesan because here we can order it not breaded. The food is always hot and delicious. Can’t say enough about the pasta dishes and always hot bread at the table. I love the nights they have live music at the bar. They offer valet service too. Highly recommend you try them.More infoCastelli'sPrice: Expensive• Italian• Palm Desert•4.8
- HHITOMIOrange County •6 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoThe host/hostess were not attractively speaking at all! Two girls did not have the stylish attitude, spoke or acted non-attractively. They were acting like grade school snooty but dorky girls. The server at the waiting bar for the Teppan ares was also not smooth and stylishly spoke. We felt like we were at the Hispanic non-english speakers' mid-end restaurant. So we said quietly "Were we really at the Mikado??" Also when we were taking a picture on the hallway, this waitress annoyingly shawted to us "EXCUSE ME!". Teppan chef was so fun and pro!!! Spoke well with a magical show.More infoMikado at Desert Springs JW MarriottPrice: Expensive• Japanese• Palm Desert•4.6
