    We loved the menu and the tastes and the presentation of each small and large course. Dario was an excellent server and even added some extra lighting to our table. Those biscuits were out of this world.

    Another wonderful meal her! , Our server Paul did a great job of taking care of us with describing the specials and cocktails. We started with the biscuits and the olives. both wonderful. I had the Date apple salad which I love with the butter beans quite yummy. 2 of us had the Bronzino which I feel is the best in the desert. and One of us had the special Baja swordfish which was also great! Desert we had the Salted Pot De Creme . A very fun and delicious meal!

    Our 2nd time here for brunch. Took our Canadian friends. Excellent food and presentation. The cobb salad has an interesting mix including summer squash and rotisserie chicken. I also ordered the seasonal biscuit with a nice carrot flavor and honey butter. The grilled cheese and tomato soup was also a hit. Will try their dinner menu next time!

    I don’t think of Palm Springs as a place for high-end restaurants so I was surprised at the superb meal that was served to me at Alice B. While the restaurant is pricey, they also have a $21 pasta and a $10 Merlot. It’s nice to see a few reasonably priced items on a pricey menu for those dining there that are more cautious on their spending. The service was excellent, and the meal was one of the best I’ve ever had in the desert. Don’t miss the salmon carpaccio, or the salted caramel parfait.
