   Looking for a high grade happy hour?? Try Eddie V's! Word of mouth lead us here for the first time, and since they filled up on a Tuesday night, it was clear that their reputation was sterling. It was much better than we had hoped. The happy hour menu is really impressive and it's like having a tasting sampler of some of the restaurant's best dishes. They offer salads, soups, seafood, and quality meats all in dishes for two....like two filet sliders, two oysters Rockefeller, etc. We started with the jumbo crab cake and it was the largest and finest crab cake we have ever had anywhere! No fillers....just a huge amount of fresh crab meat with a delicious sauce built in. One order feeds two, unless you just can't help yourself. Then we had African lobster bites that were crunchy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside; five of them were served like popsicles and we asked for melted butter to go with them (do that!). Fantastic! The next dish we don't recommend as strongly: two oysters prepared Rockefeller style, but the oysters were much too small to be satisfying and they were covered with an overbearing crunchy panko covering which overwhelmed what should have been the oyster flavor. Next came filet sliders, medium rare and absolutely delicious...excellent beef and super tender. Then the big surprise were lamb "popsicles". But these were really much more, a full one-bone lamb chop, with excuisite flavor. Wow! Dessert was excellent also, a Meyer Lemon Torte with toasted meringue and fresh fruit accents. Rich, creamy, but not overbearing. Service was exceptional: thank you so much Priscilla! And the General Manager, Rudy, came by to have a nice chat about this restaurant as well as their place in La Hoya, Southern California. What a great find! The great food and drinks were not inexpensive but well worth the cost. And the atmosphere is very classy. Enjoy!

   The staff were warm and welcoming. The parking attendant was particularly helpful with my disabled husband. We all had fish which was delicious. I ordered the appetizer crab cake for my entree. It was enormous and delicious. My husband’s Sea Bass which he had enjoyed at the Chicago location was equally delicious and perfectly prepared at the Palm Desert location. The ambiance and noise level were perfect. We’ll be back!

   This has the best food and service in Palm Desert. We love the courtyard and the music. Gloria is a great addition to their management. She is gracious and enhances our experience. The warm mushroom salad with goat cheese is delicious as was the Rack of Lamb and Lobster Tacos. It is always. Five star for food and service .

    Eddie Vs is an excellent place for dinner! You can't go wrong. They have a great selection of food and drinks. Everything we got was so delicious. I love the little extra steps this restaurant takes to take your dining experience to the next level. We were celebrating our anniversary and I love that they offered us champagne while they were getting our table ready and also gave us a cute mini desert. It's the little things. You see all the stuff helping each other out. The service was top notch. It is a little loud inside because they have live music, but it didn't take away from us enjoying the evening. 10/10 recommend.
