Alps Village — Restaurant in Palm Desert

This place is amazing. Every time my wife and I come in here, we leave happy and stuffed. Get the pretzel(s). You won't regret it. The food is amazing, and their spaetzle tastes like holiday. It's the best I've ever had. The Goulash, Chicken Paprikash, sausage platter... All amazing.

If you are there for lunch, try the Cevapcici (che vahp chichi). Even if you don't like sausage, give it a try- it is amazing. Just rip a piece of the bread to hold the sausage, dip it in a little kajmak, stick an onion in there, and wonderful goodness makes it's way to your mouth. Please, for the sake of your taste buds, try it.

The Alps Kasspatzen- 3 letters can sum it up. OMG. Its like Mac and Cheese meets awesome and grows up... But kids love it too.

The wienerschnitzel and jaegerschnitzel are amazing, though my preference leans toward the lemon of the wienerschnitzel.

I will leave you with a fair warning about the desserts: if you like them super sweet, be wary. The baklava has a wonderful sweetness, but let me tell you about their Alps White Cream Cake:

It is not sweet, not in the same way we Americans like our desserts. This cake is my favorite cake that I've gotten from a restaurant. I was expecting sweet, so my first bite wasn't great, but there is so much depth of flavor that I taste when I eat it. It is just a-frickin-mazing.

The apple strudel was great as well, again, not too sweet. There was a lot of flavor to be found in all aspects. I would definitely...

Very nice comfortable decor and seating is spaced out to not feel enclosed. The eatery is smaller than expected but again well designed. Service was prompt and friendly, yet our waitress didn't expect the honesty on one item in particular, she was fun. Another waiter did ask which of the Sample plater our favorite was and we confirmed that as for the cabbage soup it's outstanding. The Veal Schnitzel as well as the smoked sausage deserve honorable mention. Neither of us found the red cabbage, sauerkraut to be tasty and the spaetzle vwere not good. Stuffed cabbage rolls was too greasy for us. Mashed potatoes nice and lifght, the roasted potatoes excellent. We went after lunch had ended so some of it was expected from in-between shifts. We both however agree it was a great experience and will be back... Thank you. On a side note, the pricing is confusing, the Soup was served in a single bowl, so beware of that, not everyone is comfy sharing especially on a first date a soup like this. We are friends that both have background in...

First time here with family members for my Fathers 63rd Birthday gathering. Definitely a solid experience. We enjoy German cuisine! Service very good last night on Monday and place was packed. We made reservations which I read is a good idea. Frankizaner and Hofbrau beer on point! Goulash fries are a must have they went FAST! The goulash plate itself worth every penny according to my wife! I heard the schnitzel was decent by two at our table but not outstanding. I had the cordon bleu and it was good! Apparently the fish and chips are not to be missed per my relative that joined us. Spaetzle was just bland and not a favorite.A little too noisy inside good luck trying to have a conversation. I'll sit outside next time. Like the cool decor inside. Staff helpful and nice. But overall yes a good place a little pricey for those that care. $165 for 4 entrees...
