Reviews & Testimonials

  I went to this restaurant, because a colleague set up a law firm dinner here. They did an amazing job, the food is fantastic. They had everything from salmon to... MORE ribeyes and pizza. They made us a custom menu, the service is fantastic. They have a large wine list and they can make pretty much any cocktail. It was a good atmosphere, they had a DJ but that was only at night so it's not so loud until the DJ comes on. They have a lot of outside seating unless there's wind. They still manage to keep our reservation even on a night where they had to close the whole outdoor area. The vibes here are good. There's a big bar at the center, and it's a nice place that is located on a beautiful street that resembles rodeo Drive in Los Angeles.

  I absolutely loved it here. Super cool ambience. Our service was very average, but it was a busy night... so, oh well. The food, however, was spectacular. DELICIOUS cocktails, amazing... MORE appetizers (we ordered the boom boom shrimp and the calamari) the pizza was 10/10, and I had a caprese salad (added prawns) that was fresh and extremely tasty. I'm a little annoying about food because I love to cook and I hate spending money on something I can do myself. This was a YES. Next time I'm in the area, I'm coming back. Maybe for brunch which looked awesome too.

  The food at Kitchen 86 + Bar is addictive! We had Boom Boom Shrimp for the first time and ended up ordering it in our tacos, too! Our server was... MORE attentive and helpful in the old-school way.
I ordered a cosmo, which was top-notch! My boo ordered a Kalifornication cocktail and was very happy with it! There was a DJ playing some great mixes, so we moved to the dance area and had a blast with DJ Tina Turntables. 🙂 My date noticed that the restaurant is well designed: you can sit near the dance floor, or in the main dining room, where you can talk. We thoroughly enjoyed our night out on El Paseo in Palm Desert and had a blast at Kitchen 86!

  My first time in here; Sergio and Mikey treated me like royalty as I tried draft beers that tasted better here than other places. (seems like they maintain the taps... MORE cleaner and better). Wonderful environment and friendly place. I'm looking forward to the food. Evan Richards Chauffeur and Tour Guide

  This is a restaurant that has pretty much any Manuel item that you can think of that will allow you to have a flavorful meal, that doesn't break the bank.... MORE />
We have visited here a few times whether it's Sunday football, late night outing with last stop with music., or just an enjoyable breakfast as we drive out from Palm Springs to Home.

The boom boom shrimp. I'll say that again the boom boom shrimp are delicious not sweet not spicy perfectly well balanced. I have had the breakfast pizza, which is fantastic. The pizza crust is handmade and cooked in a wood fired oven and has a nice flavor to it.

My wife seems to always get a salad, which are full flavorful and have a bounty of fresh vegetables.

  Had a gift card for $50 to spend here. At first our service was quite slow, but a different server showed up h she was on it. Ordered their... MORE buffalo wings & they were awesome. Some of the best bleu cheese I've had. The patio area is nice, except they could use a few more triangle sails to block the sun, which was setting & shining right on all the tables.

  One of the best brunches ever. Sister has carnitas beni and I had California scramble. Bottomless mimosas mandatory. Hector server was awesome.

  What a wonderful place to go to. . I went with a couple of friends and i had the meatball pizza and it was delicious, This place has a great... MORE vibe and the staff is wonderful . We also had drinks and they had a good selection to choose from. We sat inside but next time we would like to experience sitting outside .

  Hector is amazing. Great suggestions excellent service amazing food first time here, dog friendly love it highly recommend coming back all the time.

  Loved this place. food and staff are excellent. definitely recommend Kitchen 86. We ate breakfast there. The blood's are very good.

  Everything we tried was wonderful for dinner last night! My husband and I especially liked the rack of lamb. The ambiance is loud and fun. Many TVs with sports playing... MORE in the background. Lots of healthy options. And they have a vegan section on the menu!

  If I had a choice to go to this place for dinner, or brunch, I would have to pick dinner. Their screwball-espresso martinis are out of this world!!! I enjoyed... MORE their filet mignon, but the brussels sprouts could've used more flavor.
The ambience at night is really good and it's a fun place to hang out and have drinks !
Though I'm not as pleased with their brunch, I know many people are so maybe don't take my opinion on that 😉
It's right on El Paseo in the heart of the shopping area. They have a nice outside patio and you can bring your dog 🙂

  *Pet friendly place*
Our yorkies were welcomed here.

Their hamburger is delicious with many flavors. The garlic fries are a must! Pancakes are fluffy and the topping is delicious!... MORE The service was excellent. Ambiance is nice. The outdoor patio seating in front of the restaurant was great.
