    THis is one of the best restaurants in all of the Coachella Valley. Food is excellent, service is impeccable and the atmosphere is sensational. Perhaps the best outdoor dining in the area.

    We always go to Arnold’s on special occasions. Great atmosphere, food and service. If I have to nitpick, and I know this is nitpicking, a few things were just inches short of their usually impeccable standards. My pasta came out just warm not hot. My wife did not receive the usual fine steak knife prior to getting her pork chop. And our waiter was a bit lax in checking back with the table. It my complimentary birthday dessert was unexpected and divine and the rest of the food and evening was perfect. As I said….nitpicking. We love it here!
