First of all, we came from LA and wanted a spot where we could have a nice breakfast. We wanted something more American, but noticed a diner nearby was way too busy and I had a hangry family. Definitely was a good thing for us. We found this restaurant within the same complex and the "Brunch" sign sold us! From the moment we walked in, greeted and seated immediately at a good social distance from other families. Our server was patient and kind (had three undecided kids with me) lol. The brunch menu had great selections. We ordered Chipotle chicken chilaquiles with scrambled egg white, egg sandwich, French toast and another item to include side orders of Applewood bacon and sausage. Food was delicious! No complaints! Server was very attentive and courteous. The restaurant decor was appealing and restrooms were very clean. Most definitely will be coming here on my next visit to Palm Desert. Wish I had a Solano's in LA! Thank you for making my experience...
Read moreMy wife and I golfed in the afternoon and we were starving. After a quick check of restaurant Google reviews, we decided to try Solanos and boy are we glad we did. From the drinks to the entrees, we were delighted. Our server, bartender Roy, was fabulous. He mixed great Cas Amigos scratch margaritas. He then recommended the short ribs, which I had, and my wife ordered the beet salad. My wife was was very happy with her selection and my short ribs were a taste explosion. Maybe in my top two or three in my life, including grandma S's. I had the tiramisu for dessert and it was fantastic. The vibe was great. We couldn't be happier. In fact, we're coming back through Palm desert to go to the restaurant in a few days to try the linguine bolognese (the other Roy suggestion). I give this restaurant my highest recommendation. Sorry, we normally take pictures, but we're starving and dived in. Maybe...
Read moreWe stayed a week in Palm Desert and dinner here was surely one of my favorite experiences. It is my understanding that the Chef-Owner creates a seasonal menu and from what I observed, he cares deeply about every aspect of his customers’ visit. The warm, authentic hospitality, Prosecco and Champagne available in splits (exquisite!), and meals prepared with such care and attention to detail (as a Chef I can tell ;) was all so very much appreciated. The handmade pappardelle with pesto was so delicious, it’s inspired me to make fresh pasta of my own more often! I asked our server for some bread to mop up the sauce and the fresh little rolls he offered with herb-topped butter were such a special touch that I couldn’t help but return my dish spotless! I saw a sign that was not prominently placed but I think ought to be - Prepared with Love. Thank you Chef and crew, for such a...
