El Jefe Desert Cantina - Palm Springs

This is a hidden gem in Palm Springs for good food at great prices. We went for happy hour cocktails and apps followed by Taco Thursday for a great one-two combination. All the tacos were good but especially liked the beer battered fish tacos! Also the chorizo quesadillas were amazing and you have to leave room for the churros which will change your life!

Nelson and spicy Margs for victory! This place is great. Good moods and energy at the outdoor fire tables. Great stop to Indian Canyon. Our server Nelson was super attentive, has great recommendations and offered a great experience. Love this place!

We were sad We had a fantastic lunch on Friday 30. September 2022 and Richie was our server on this day- I'd Rate Richie 's customer service and eating a solid 5. Can't say enough good words about richie- polite, great customer service. We had a great experience so my husband and I decided there on Monday, the 3rd. To eat October 2022 as our last culinary experience in Palm Springs before your home trip. This second experience was different from the first and I would not give it if it were possible, so I gave it a 1. Our server was Isaac after finishing our meal and receiving our bill, he took our credit card to the bar to process. My husband and I talked about the fact that we thought this was a strange incident and usually a machine is brought to the table, like our first experience with Richie. While Isaac processed our credit card, another employee who was not sure came to our table and started talking to us and asking us to check the restaurant on Tripadvisor. Another strange thing happened when we talked to her. The invoice originally placed on our table was turned off before us. The woman took it and we were occupied by this woman who asked us about our culinary experience. That was all very fast. After we got our credit card, my husband said we didn't make an assessment until we see our credit card statement because something felt very bad. Our credit card statement arrived today and it was certainly not for the amount given to us on the first invoice. We were cheated over $80. For the management, we would be more than happy to discuss this with the top management.

For a mexican restaurant you need to improve your drinks. I ordered a chavella and it did not taste like it and dont look like it. It's nice you have artisinal beer but you need to have more options on your beer. One type only is not enough. You dont have modelo and that's a bit odd. Your salsa taste good. Train your bartenders. I saw how she mixed 2 drinks for 2 ladies and not paying attention on the amounts being poured on each glass. Filled up the first glass, second glass was just half only. Then she just dumps a lot of ice on the half glass to make it full. Thats not fair to the other lady who paid for a whole glass too. I tried your vespers and you need to improve the way you make it. Attached is the picture of your chavella with the beer in cans.

Pretty good for a (boutique) hotel restaurant. Leans a little on the pricier side, but we found portions good. Service is met or mis. Lunch and dinner is better here than breakfast. Cool interior aesthetic and beautiful outdoor/terrace.
