The…read moreatmosphere was great, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and everything from the service to the overall vibe was on point. Huge shoutout to DJ Teflon -- he did an amazing job keeping the energy going and making the night even better! The only thing I would love to see continue is karaoke on Thursdays. That was such a fun addition, and I really hope they bring it back and keep it going! Other than that, everything was excellent. The staff is great, the music is on point, and the atmosphere is exactly what you want for a fun night out. I highly recommend Fusion Five to anyone looking for a great restaurant/bar with good vibes, great people, and an awesome time. Definitely worth checking out -- I'll absolutely be back!

Solid spot if you're looking for something casual and flavorful, but not necessarily a place I'd…read morewrite home about. The lettuce wraps were easily the best thing we had. The pork was crispy and had a really good sweet peanut flavor that worked really well together. We also ordered the spicy beef salad and asked for medium. It was VERY spicy, but I like spicy food so I was totally fine with it. That said, if medium is supposed to be the middle of the road, I'd say this definitely leans hotter than expected. Overall, everything was good and I'd come back if I was in the area, but it's a very casual spot. Definitely not a date night kind of place, more of a quick, laid back meal when you're craving Vietnamese or Southeast Asian food.

I have been wanting to come here for years, based on the great Eater 38 and Yelp reviews, and…read morefinally had the chance. We came with a group of 10 of us, so got to taste a lot of dishes. For appetizers, our favorites were the crispy ginger green beans (so flavorful and tasty!), the hand-rolled crispy egg rolls (yum!); and the crunchy tiger shrimp spring rolls (freshy and tasty; liked these better than the poached shrimp spring rolls or mango spring rolls). For entrees, our top favorites were the (1) chicken protein bowl w/ fresh seasonal vegetables in a delicious sauce w/ a touch of chili oil and tamari soy sauce; (2) the sweet tamari glazed salmon w/ wok fried rice noodles nad peanut tamarind sauce; and (3) the pad thai trio (w/ pork, chicken & shrimp). The tiger shrimp vermicelli w/ shrimp wontons (like a crispy egg roll), was good, but not the best I've had; noodles were thicker than usual. The spicy red curry ramen w/ pork belly had a very flavorful sauce, but the coconut broth made it quite heavy. The Vietnamese crepe w/ pork & shrimp was good, but had too many bean sprouts. The Fried Chicken was good, and very generous portion, but had a lot of breading and bones. Next time would like to try the pho. They also have a happy hour, currently 5-6 pm at the bar and outdoors w/ cocktail, wine, beer and appetizer specials. Friendly service and nice ambiance. Would definitely return!

The flavors are consistently high-quality, with the seafood linguine, mushroom soup, and ahi tuna wontons standing out as personal favorites. While the crispy potstickers did not meet expectations--primarily due to a lack of crispness and an aioli sauce that felt less effective than a traditional soy-based pairing--the overall culinary output remains impressive. The service is truly outstanding; the entire team, from the hosting staff to the servers and owners, is exceptionally friendly and attentive. Desert Moon remains a premier choice for us in Palm Springs, and we look forward to our future visits.

I called The Tropicale and the woman informed that they would be able to seat us but their kitchen closed promptly at 11. It was nice to hear that because all the other places I called had an 11 pm closing time but their kitchens closed much sooner than that. Upon arrival, we met the woman on the phone. She was really sweet and accommodated our request to sit at a table instead of at the bar. The staff were very nice to us despite our late arrival. The restaurant was beautiful! You would never have guessed how pretty it was in there from the exterior. Unique decor and perfect mood lighting! Our server, Nick, was very friendly. He made recommendations and we listened! The Korean beef skewers were tender and marinated well! I wanted to like the pickled cucumbers that accompanied it but it was a little on the salty side for me. Nick also recommended the chicken parmesan. It was sooooo good! We were pretty hungry but we shared and the portion was plenty! They also brought us complimentary bread per our request. The ONLY bummer was that their kitchen did closed promptly at 11 and the chefs were outta there. I forgot to order my Baked Alaska dessert (main reason why I came) ahead of time!! That's ok. I guess that's just my excuse to come again.

To start off with the good, the rolls were great, I highly recommend the venue roll and the yellow tail crudo. The drinks were great nothing out of the ordinary or anything I would come back for or wish to have again. The matcha lychee drink was pretty unique though! Now for room for improvement... I feel like the food and drinks alone are wonderful but the service was very disappointing to say the least. We had a reservation for 4 people inside, and when we checked in multiple walk ins of 2 and 4 people were let in before us to be seated inside, even though we showed up at the same time and had a reservation for the exact time we got there * reservation was at 7 we checked in at 6:57*. We got seated right by the restroom and instantly there was an odor that came from the restroom that impacted our experience. Not only that, but half of our party had to continuously get up and move in order for guests to use the restroom. This isn't any negativity on the guests themselves, we understand that they obviously needed to use the restroom. When we asked at the beginning when we were sat if we could move tables, when there was room inside to be seated for 4 people our server told us that there wasn't anything that they could do... I understand maybe other reservations but it really is unfortunate on how multiple walk-ins were seated before our party with a reservation, our party had to be continuously disrupted in order to accommodate for guests using the restroom, and the odor coming from the restroom didn't allow us to actually enjoy the food and drinks.

Got a mezcal drink ($16) and IPA ($10) and the chicken tenders ($15). The drink was strong so at least semi worth the more expensive price. I really liked the fries and the cilantro ranch that the chicken tenders came with. The fries had a seasoning might have been tajin that made them super tasty! Granted it is winter and not many people are hanging by the pool they did close at 5pm on a Friday which I thought was pretty early. Overall easy access food and drink if you're hanging out by the pool but pricey and honestly nothing special.
