Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Desert Shores

Never disappoints. All food was delicious with impeccable service. As usual!

Junior’s warm greeting at the door set the tone for the evening. Fresh focaccia with flavored olive oil is placed on the table and was a nice start with the excellent bottle of wine we ordered. All the food was first rate in quality and preparation - burrata, salad, pastas (pappardella with wild boar ragu and spaghetti neri), and desserts (crème brûlée and gelato). We look forward to going back.

What fun! From the secret entrance to the live crooner on the stage we had a fabulous evening! Chicago Tommy, the doorman (must have been a former Mob Boss) hooked us up with a cozy booth near the stage so we could enjoy the classic tunes. Vinny, our waiter, couldn’t have done a better job. His timing was perfect! He left us alone to enjoy the evening at our pace and was there to keep the wine glasses topped off and the food coming. The portions were plentiful and delicious, especially the Veal Parm. Finished the night with a delectable piece of Tiramisu and we were completely satisfied! Loved the entire experience! We’ll be back!

Went with 3 other friends for a belated holiday dinner. None of us had been before but another friend had recommended. We went on a Tuesday night so it wasn't very busy. I have a dairy issue but they were very accommodating. It was our server's first night but wouldn't have guessed if he hadn't mentioned it. All the staff were very good and friendly! The food and presentation were excellent. A nice menu but little pricey for regular visits for us. But it would be a good place for special occasions. Our only issue was finding out that they wouldn't do separate checks. Although they were willing to let us charge our portions separate which didn't make much sense. But we respected the policy and that would not be a deterrent to going again or recommending.

Hostesses are never very friendly. They do not like to accommodate.
