Restaurants near Holiday Inn Express Palm Desert

A lovely experience! Thank you for making my birthday dinner memorable 🎉🎂🎂

Every single thing was perfect, as always. Our server, Maryia, was outstanding.

Really wonderful experience and meal. First, the hotel in which the restaurant is affiliated is an old school throwback interesting spot. The Service from the minute we got to the restaurant was nothing but professional and perfect. Our server, Kristy couldn’t have been more accommodating. All of the drinks and food courses were also top-notch. We took dessert home and those matched the rest of the cuisine as being outstanding as well. Can’t wait to go back and possibly looking forward to having a family function there down the road.

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.

🌸 The Blushing Peony Wine Bar & Café | Indian Wells, CA The Blushing Peony is such a gem in Indian Wells! I’ve been here several times and always enjoy the experience. On this visit, we sat outside and enjoyed the lovely breeze while having lunch. We ordered the grilled cheese with soup and the Simple Breakfast, and both were delicious! One thing I really appreciate is that the food is made fresh, not premade. Yes, it takes a little longer, but it’s absolutely worth the wait! Good food takes time, and you can appreciate the difference. The service is consistently good, too, which makes every visit that much better. Beyond the food, this is also a wonderful spot to enjoy a glass of champagne or one of their specialty cocktails. I’ve enjoyed the champagne on previous visits, and they have a fabulous lavender cocktail that I’ve ordered several times. It’s as delicious as it is beautiful! Between the fresh, thoughtfully prepared food, friendly service, charming atmosphere, and lovely outdoor seating, The Blushing Peony has become one of my favorite spots in the area. Whether you’re stopping in for breakfast, lunch, or a glass of bubbly, it’s definitely worth a visit! 🥂💜
