Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Rancho Mirage

Enjoyed our last evening in Palm Desert by dining at one of your favorite restaurants. Never been disappointed at Sullivan's for lunch or dinner. Even though we arrived early for our reservation, we were promptly seated. The $51 three-course dinner is a real bargain and very enjoyable.

The happy hour menu is fantastic and great value! We will come here again for quick delicious appetizers. The staff are all super friendly too.

We went to a wine pairing dinner at Wildest and were thoroughly impressed with the restaurant and the food especially. The wine pairings were spot on but the wine itself was not one of our favorites. There were 6 courses (all small plates, of course) and each one was delicious with a beautiful presentation. We were happy to learn that most of the food we had is part of their regular menu so we will definitely be back for more. The service was good but for a wine pairing dinner, we kept getting the wine before the food. Since the wine owner was speaking about the various characteristics of the wine, we kept tasting and then had little left when the food finally arrived. But the whole evening was great!

As always the best it’s the ritz. Can’t beat was was already perfect

Michelin quality experience. We discovered Daniel’s Table three years ago, and it is still our preferred choice for fine dining. This is the kind of restaurant in which you want to give yourself to the experience as it was already curated by its dedicated, and talented chef Daniel Villanueva. The menu is ever changing based on the freshest flavors of the seasons, which Chef Daniel pairs up perfectly with the most delicious, and interesting wines we’ve enjoyed to date. His creativity marvels you with rather exciting mixes of sweet, salt, neutral, fun, and unusual in every dish. No dinner night has been the same, and always a delightful feast. The menu is gluten free, consisting only of the freshest ingredients. It is rather concise, yet so complete, and varied, we typically wish we could have a little bit of everything. One week, Chef Daniel prepared fresh egg pasta, and being a keto diner who has not enjoyed pasta in years, this was a curiosity I had to follow. It was truly the best I have ever tasted, light and delicious in every way. Desserts are portioned just right; always different, seasonal, fresh, delightful, and he has just the right Port to enhance the experience. We love the ambiance. The black shades on the windows create an intimate feel, void of the outside world. It is located at a rather unsuspecting corner, which makes it even quieter and peaceful inside. All you hear is pleasant music, Chef Daniel’s friendly conversation as he brings you your feast, Hostess Alex telling you about your next savory wine, and your date’s romantic company. We recommend you experience counter seating at least once, it is a great opportunity to further interact with Chef Daniel and his staff, hear more details about the entire menu, the inspiration for some dishes, and an overall fun interaction with them that will make you feel like the guest of honor. We always leave delighted, already planning our next visit, and pleasantly curious about the next menu.
