Gorgeous patio glittering lights lovingly strung creating an intimate setting, of course in spectacular Palm Desert. The owner greets you in his charming way and you are whisked to a perfect table (they are all perfect). Now the food! The beet salad was completely original and not to shared! Two rack of lambs were ordered at our table, both cooked as ordered and delicious. We will be back soon, as we are on vacation here.

Consistently great food and service! I had the salmon and steakhouse salad, and my guests always get the ribeye with shoestring fries and as always, it was fantastic!! Thank you, Melanie, for always being kind and knowing what we want and making sure we get it in a timely manner :) And thank you to both managers who stopped by our table to make sure we had everything we needed.

This was absolutely an incredible experience. Fantastic ambiance outside with optics galore and live music next to us with the fantastic Loree. The food was timely, a perfect temperature and the Swordfish and Tenderloin Stroganoff were delicious. The dessert was equally amazing as well with a Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble… one of the best we’ve ever had. Strongly recommend Jillian’s!

The flavors were unique and mouth-watering. The beet salad was fabulous, as was the chicken something appetizer. The flan dessert was a bit of a cheesecake flavor, but also tasty. The filet could have been a bit warmer and more seared. The fingerling potatoes definitely get a thumbs up! Our server was great. Generally, I would recommend this restaurant. Perhaps next time we will eat outside, as it was lovely there and a bit quieter. We're locals and have decided to try restaurants where we have never dined, for a change, and this was not a disappointment. Lovely evening.

Our first time here, it felt a little bit like a throwback in time to when we might have seen Sinatra here. Service was great, food was very good, complimentary valet, good cocktails and just a cool vibe.
