A chic and sophisticated décor provides the setting for our distinctive "world cuisine", a provocative mix of zesty influences that creates a delightful dining experience in Palm Springs, California. Plush high-backed semicircular banquettes surround our dining room and offer comfortable and private seating. The cuisine has a light, exotic feel with an emphasis on Pacific Rim specialties, from Chilean Sea Bass baked in Banana Leaves or Kahlua-Barbecued Pork Chops to all sorts of tasty tapas, salads, wood-fired pizzas, and desserts. The Coral Seas Lounge, a hip mid-century style bar is lined with sexy black leather bar-stools and is reminiscent of the upbeat lounges of old Palm Springs. It wraps around the dining room and leads outside to a lush, tropical, 2000 square foot dining patio where a variety of specialty cocktails and old-school favorites are mixed - an ideal place where friends gather and martinis are sipped under the starlit desert sky.

King’s Highway is our desert diner, and celebrates the ineffable, bohemian spirit of the wide open West. Our seasonal menu is sourced from independent farmers spread across the Coachella Valley and Southern California. We reinvented an old Denny’s restaurant to celebrate its retro style and add fresh, modern updates. During renovations we unearthed a terrazzo floor, sandblasted the flagstone walls and re-covered the booths in saddle leather. We’re open all day, every day. The coffee’s hot and the beer is cold. Our popular dishes include ricotta pancakes, chopped salad and short rib ragu.**Please note that King's Highway operates on a "first come first served" basis between 7 am & 5 pm except for parties of 10 or more

    We had lunch today at Spencers. It was fabulous! We chose the luncheon offer which included salad or soup (we had one of each and both were absolutely delicious!), followed with an entree of steak with loaded baked potato (was good) and white fish over mashed potatoes and spinach (delightful) followed with an upside down pineapple cake which was truly melting in our mouths. This also included our drinks of coffee and ice tea. Not only was the food excellent, the prices were very resonable for today, especially the luncheon special menu which is what we had above. Service was excellent. The only problem we had was two men sitting behind our table who were way too loud! They made our conversations difficult. Otherwise - highly recommended!!
