Rank 9. Bar Cecil
American
Bar Cecil's maximalist dining room—all Calder and Warhol against jewel-toned walls—feels like a collector's fever dream made flesh. A martini here reads as essential, particularly one crowned with a caviar-topped deviled egg, though the real argument is between their burger and cacio e pepe, both executed with the kind of precision that justifies the weeks-long wait for a table.

Rank 10. The Barn Kitchen
California New American
A poolside refuge in Palm Springs where the cooking matches the wellness-focused ease of its setting—grilled cauliflower steak with sauce vierge, composed salads, avocado toast—all delivered with unhurried service beneath open sky. The menu is deliberately small and flexes readily around dietary needs, prioritizing ingredient quality over ambition. Reservation required unless you're a guest.

Rank 26. Workshop Kitchen & Bar
Farm-to-table New American
A Spanish colonial building hollowed out for modernist austerity: polished concrete, a mist-cooled courtyard, and wood-fired dishes that draw from the Coachella Valley's agricultural surplus. The flat iron au poivre and yuzu tart—garnished with farm-fresh raspberries and wood sorrel—prove the kitchen's restraint. House-made ginger beer anchors a bar program that balances tradition and invention.
-
Rank 27. Cheeky's
American
The smell of bacon hits you before the host does at this day-lit Palm Springs spot where locals queue for patio seats and house-made pastries. A weekly-changing menu spotlights local produce in unexpected forms—breakfast quesadillas, a bacon flight spanning five preparations—while the pecan streusel coffee cake justifies the wait.

-
Rank 30. 4 Saints
Southern
On the Rowan's seventh-floor rooftop, leather banquettes and a central bar frame views of the San Jacinto Mountains. Chef Ysaac Ramirez brings Southern inflection to seasonal cooking—grilled purple sweet potatoes with Alabama white barbecue sauce, ribeyes finished with smoked onion and salsa verde—while date-infused Old Fashioneds anchor the shareable menu. The altitude justifies the price.

Rank 35. Tac/Quila
Modern Mexican
A hacienda-styled Mexican restaurant where business diners and poolside tourists mingle over house-made tortillas and top-shelf tequila. The kitchen handles both street tacos and lobster with equal confidence, though the pork tamale and quesabirria short ribs justify a return visit.
-
Rank 36. The Colony Club
American
A Moroccan-style dining room with turquoise pools and Art Deco glamour, The Colony Club channels mid-century Palm Springs when Bogart and Gable held court here. The menu—edamame hummus to grilled pork chop, scallop aguachile to molten lava cake—matches the setting's ease, neither striving nor forgetting itself.

Rank 46. Boozehounds
Cocktail Bar
A Palm Springs cocktail bar that welcomes dogs into a separate patio with their own menu while humans sip dog-themed drinks inside, the kitchen pivots from crispy truffled fries to tuna tataki and Korean rice cakes with equal confidence. The conceit is silly, but the drinks and food are genuinely thoughtful.
