    Predictably home-town and wholesome feeling, including the warm service, Manhattan in the Desert is like your favorite comfortable blanket that you can pull up to your chin and feel comfortable and secure. Like everywhere else, prices have sneaked up (and portions have slightly diminished) over the years, but the value still exists —especially without all of the nonsense that goes on in others, more in the public view,delis in the area. Their Happy Hour and Early Dinner specials are always reliably value-priced. Check ‘em out!

    We had to wait a really long time for our food. It’s one of those situations where people who sat down after we ordered. Got their food before we did.

    Totally redone with a bar area that looks fabulous! They still have the bakery section with all the sweets at about half the size it used to be. Our server, Cliff, made our night… Palm Springs needs more like him.

    A group of us, 10 in all, went for Happy Hour. The server couldn’t have been more accommodating. He rearranged tables and seats, took the order for drinks and food. He was very informative, helpful, and fun. He was able to describe each of the dishes offered and make helpful recommendations. We enjoyed Happy Hour and will definitely be going back. Plenty of parking, great newly renovated bar, with TVs for sporting events.

    The food was good, but the waiter was so rude that he really ruined our experience.

    Enjoyed great cut of prime rib. Service was fast and freindly. The noise level was unbearable for talking.

    Consistently great meal. Service is usually very good but this experience was very busy and service was lacking a bit.

    The new bar was interesting to walk into. The food is always good with portions for the next day which is great. The decor in the dining room continues to need refreshing. Keep the changes coming. And the coconut cake? Amazing.
