You’ll also find your favorites there, like al pastor and carne asada tacos, and of course exceptional margaritas.
- Nosh on some of Palm Springs’ best sushi at Sandfish by Chef Engin Onural. Aside from incredibly fresh and well-prepared sushi, they also have an extensive selection of Japanese Whiskey’s worth tasting your way through.
- For some of the best farm-to-table eats in all of the Palm Desert, you can’t go wrong with Workshop Kitchen + Bar. You’ll find plenty of yummy small plates to share, including things like a sweet and savory shaved Brussels sprout salad, duck leg confit, and a wood-fired ribeye for two with bone marrow butter.
- If you’ve been craving Nashville Hot Chicken, you’re in luck! You can enjoy this southern classic right here in Palm Springs at Blackbook, which also hosts a beautiful open-air bar and great drinks.
