About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
  • Great for creative cocktails
Shorebird Restaurant is a coastal eatery that proudly presents a modern take on classic Americana flavors with influences from traditional seafood and steakhouses. Featuring a wood-fire grill and rotisserie, our signature dishes include Duroc Heritage Pork Chop with Brussels sprouts and brandy-poached apples, Faroe Island’s Salmon Mignon with a cauliflower purée, and Harris Ranch Prime Skirt Steak served with a red chimichurri sauce.

    Probably shouldn’t let customers allow their DOG to walk/ run around the restaurant off their leash .. not everyone agrees your dog is as cute as you might think .. especially while we’re eating

    Our excellent waiter Felipe made our dinner with old friends so special! Both chicken and swordfish taco platteres were to die for. The staff was happy to split the generous wedge salad between two of us. Highly recommend this special desert spot!

    Chicken and waffles and pork brunch dish were phenomenal. Pork belly app also 10/10. It was hard to choose what to get because of so many bomb options. Cocktails were also fantastic - blueberry smash and mango tango. Highly recommended. Will be back - loved it.

    Sushi was very good, however we ordered the Ribeye and were very disappointed. I have never seen a ribeye that was maybe 1/2" thick. I would be embarrassed to serve this steak at a restaurant. We did send it back, but they only gave us 60% off. Very disappointing.
    Shorebird Palm DesertResponded on April 24, 2025
    Dear Greg, thank you for providing your feedback and letting us know about this issue. We set a high standard for ourselves and are truly sorry to hear that standard was not met in your interaction with our team. Please get in touch with our Restaurant Manager Travis Morgan, and we would be happy to help you out. Thank you.

    Great food and ambience the ONLY thing they need to improve on is to get with the times and offer non-alcoholic beverage choices on their menu like mos restaurants do these days!
