Best Historic Restaurants in Rancho Mirage

Lovely evening, great ambiance and Peter did an excellent job. Steak tartare came with potato chips? Instead of crackers? The fire desserts were presented in a bowl instead of shallow plate and 4 little plates to share. Way too sweet compared to Brennan’s in New Orleans. Bar did not have crème de menthe? For after dinner drink in the bar.

8 friends came to dine after playing pickleball at 5pm and we had a wonderful experience. Our server was friendly and attentive. The chef delivered our many tapas which were uniformly wonderful and beautiful. They nicely split our checks so we could pay separately and brought out complimentary dessert (cheesecake). The mocktails were fantastic as was the Spanish wine which the server let us taste before committing to a bottle. We had such a good time!

I am going thru the menu with different entries and so far they have all been excellent. My wife is a vegan and she has been taken great care of with different slants of a vegan dish. It’s a great improvement from before. Seems like Le Vallauris has gone thru a wonderful transition with a new chief who cares for all their clients. A+ for making Le Vallauris more vegan friendly! Oh the lobster salad is I think better than before not sure I can put a finger on why but something is a bit different and more flavor plus if u like caviar or oysters they have the best!

This is a throwback to the 1960’s, when the Rat Pack played here. Within an old hotel, we were warmly greeted upon entering and shown to our table. The waitress was attentive and graciously fulfilled our requests for putting cheese on the side and swapping a vegetable from one meal to another. The food was delicious! Wasn’t expecting that. We saw a show with Rose headlining. She has a pleasant voice and even more pleasant personality. We stayed to the very end. Thank you, we really enjoyed the experience.

What a fun place! Went with friends and had a great time. The music is terrific. And we had amazing service. We tried numerous starters and they were all delicious-particularly liked the shrimp tacos and ceviche. I will definitely go back.
