Great local coffee house, with three locations for 'good' coffee. Koffi recently won Palm Springs Life Magazine's Best of the Best for coffee! The downtown Palm Springs location is the best, because they have a large courtyard in the back for relaxing and chatting.

Adding to the Vietnamese cuisine boom in town, this outpost of a successful restaurant in Redlands has a mega menu with multiple pho choices, coriander-crusted filet mignon, and claypot sea bass, along with more basic lunch combos of cashew chicken with soup and salad. The bar churns out pretty good and interesting cocktails and does a $5 bites happy hour menu in the afternoons. Grab a table on the covered, street-fronting patio if you can.

This bright little spot, tucked inside a shopping arcade along downtown's main drag is solid stop for lunch with European-style sandwiches like prosciutto and brie on baguettes along with more traditional deli sandwiches and a lineup of salads as well as some all-day breakfast fare. But the showstopper here is house-roasted chicken, that's available on the early dinner menu after 3 p.m. (though if you want it earlier and call ahead, owner Felix can usually have it ready for you.) Later this fall he'll launch Saturday afternoon wine tastings, an evening small plates menu, and take-away charcuterie offerings.

Located at the L'Horizon Resort And Spa. With summer's insane temps behind us, it's time to soak in the stunning scenery at L'Horizon's sophisticated outdoor restaurant with dramatic features like the 26-foot walnut table and branching Lindsey Adelman lights. Michelin-starred chef Giacomo Pettinari, who opened the place last year, is involved again but it will be Jason Niederkorn, formerly of Aspen's Hotel Jerome, who will be heading things up in the kitchen. Expect creative Mediterranean fare including blistered sea scallops carpaccio with baby chiogga beets or crispy, smoked paprika squid on the upcoming fall menu. (Open to the public for dinner only, Friday and Saturday.)

It's nearly impossible to find a person in Palm Springs who doesn't love this little eatery tucked in the back corner of a strip mall, as evidenced by the nightly crowds who line up for inspired Vietnamese-American fare created by chef/owner Tai Spendley. The menu changes often, but Spendley signatures include his crunchy Jasmine tea leaf salad and banh mi burger. And don't pass up the addictive new spicy okra appetizer with crispy shallot. The restaurant also emphasizes craft beer, offering up a variety of microbrews on tap and some imports in cans and bottles.

For dessert, try the make-your-own ice cream sandwich with artisanal ice cream made at the shop next door.

Since taking over this bougainvillea-covered patio bistro in May, lawyer Liz Ostoich has focused on giving it even more of a Provencal feel, injecting the menu with house-made jams, local produce, and really good French press coffee. In addition to omelettes, salads, and a few over-the-top French toast dishes, there's a long list of crepes ranging from nutella and banana to ham and gruyere.

There's also a brunchy cocktail menu with concoctions like a bacon-garnished Bloody Mary and a gin-basil cocktail and Farm plans to kick off Friday and Saturday dinner service on October 14.

It's got a huge craft beer list, an impressive selection of small-batch whiskeys (including some that have been custom barreled), impressive gourmet burgers (don't miss the bison version topped with bacon-infused jalapeño jam), and an enticing list of upscale comfort dishes that run the gamut from osso bucco riblets to a beet salad garnished with pop rocks. Inside, the modern-rustic space features a large bar and booths, while there's an enclosed heated patio outside with a sprinkling of large picnic-style tables for larger groups.

The lobby-adjacent wood-paneled tequila bar and restaurant at The Saguaro Hotel continues to serve crowds of hip guests and locals who come for creative tacos like fried cactus paddle and orange-braised carnitas, and really pack the place during bargain Taco Tuesdays.

For drinks try the jalapeno-celery margarita shaken with a housemade celery syrup or the Mezcal Mule.

Palm Springs may have lost Jose Garces's tapas joint Tinto last year, but you can still get an excellent fix of Spanish fare at this Rancho Mirage restaurant, which also happens to be home to some of the area's best outdoor dining thanks to its starry-skied courtyard. The tapas bar does bites like garlic shrimp, fried chickpeas, and smoked chorizo, while the dinner menu offers larger plates of seafood paella and a perfectly charred octopus over a chickpea puree. With a few days notice, the chef can prepare a whole-roasted suckling pig dinner for six or more.

Birba is always bustling for a reason. There's a sleek, open-air bar, a gorgeous outdoor patio dotted with uplit trees, excellent farm-to-table fare, and pizza that rivals any favorite back in LA. Keep it tame with a margherita or go wilder with a shishito-and-bottarga or the long-running braised greens pizza dotted with Serrano chiles, olives, and smoked mozzarella. The homemade pastas are worth a try, too, and the recently revamped wine list now includes carafes in addition to bottles and glasses. Look for live music on Thursday evenings.
