Eight4Nine was the perfect spot for an anniversary brunch with my wife! The place is absolutely beautiful--white, minimalist, and filled with a cool pop-art vibe. I loved that there are different dining rooms, each with its own art and design. Every space feels unique, and walking through the restaurant is an experience on its own. For brunch, I ordered the chilaquiles, and the Negra Modelo ranchera salsa was delicious and very unique. The flavors really stood out, and I loved the addition of the Spanish chorizo Bilbao. My wife ordered the poblano chile relleno, and everything on the plate was delicious. The refried pinto beans were especially good, and the corn pudding was amazing--like a little piece of corn tamal! Then came the carrot cake sandwich... and honestly, it looked like they saved the best for last. This might be the best carrot cake we have ever tried! The layers of cream cheese semifreddo, carrot ribbon cream, candied pecans, orange crisps, and salted caramel were absolutely incredible. I would honestly come back to Eight4Nine just for the carrot cake. Everything we had was delicious, but the dessert stole the show without a doubt. A big thank you to Sandy, our waitress, for the great recommendations and wonderful service. We loved celebrating our anniversary here and definitely want to come back! read more

The food quality is very consistent and delicious. Definitely order the "cracked potatoes." One of my favorite places to go to catch up with friends. Easy to make reservations. The one star removed because it can be loud in the evening with the music being a bit too loud. read more

Did a fantastic job for our party of 14. Good service, beautifully decorated and great food. Professionally run and operated but not so rigid that small tweaks can't be made. Welcoming and inviting. Thank you. read more

Veg friendly, fabulous environment, staff, libations. Fairly priced, always a pleasure. Dog friendly, multiple menu options. Four of us shared a giant pretzel, we had beer, a Bloody Mary, wine, an NA and a regular cocktail. For food we had a simple salad, French scramble, Brussels Sprouts and an artichoke and couldn't finish it all. Lovely experience as always! read more

It is always a pleasure to dine at Eight4Nine. The staff are amazing and beautiful. Service is fantastic. The food is always top shelf. You can't go wrong here. The building is large, bright, and nicely decorated. Its history is interesting. I was told that first it was the US Post Office. Then a furniture store. For the last ten-plus years, it has been Eight4Nine. Tonight, I started with the Ahi Tuna Poke. It was really fresh with a nice blend of Asian flavors. Nicely chilled, it was perfect for a hot night. My entree was the delicious Carne Asada. The skirt steak was sliced thin and it had a smokey hardwood grilled flavor to it. The refried pinto beans were a nice complement to the meal. My wine, a Chenin Blanc was crisp and fruity also perfect for a hot weather night. Eight4Nine is a great addition to the many delicious restaurants in Palm Springs. read more

We frequently dine here when we're in town and the food is consistently very good. My hubby likes the corn/crab chowder and I enjoy the grilled artichoke and the short rib sliders are amazing. They offer a slab of espresso cake for dessert that is enough to last for days! It's also nice that they are one of the few restaurants still offering bread without a hefty price tag. We usually have good service, but on our most recent visit we arrived at 8:00 p.m and as soon as we were seated we were told we needed to order right away as the kitchen was closing (even though the restaurant was open until 9:00 p.m.) It kind of spoiled the vibe and I would have preferred to be told this before being seated, so we could decide if we wanted to stay. Hopefully it was an off night as we typically really enjoy this place. read more

Kitsch-Luxe would be an appropriate description of the interior. Pleasing to the eye, a bit dated, it may not fit everyone's aesthetic. But, fun nonetheless. A vibrant scene. The bread was killer.......... The owner seems to be a nice person and has a successful unique spot. Worth the trip for the presentation. read more

Great service, food, and atmosphere. For diner we had the pretzel and brussel sprouts apps which were both great! Also the burger was amazing (one of the best i can remember) with a perfect cook and great flavors. Our server in the bar area was very friendly. And the menu prices are quite reasonable read more

Bartenders Marco and Ixta are fantastic. Marco was on the clock when we arrived and he was great. We he clocked out Ixta took over serving us. She made some food recommendations and we settled on the guacamole and chips and the ahi poke bowl. The best we ever had. It's a really cute restaurant with a warm, comfortable vibe. read more

Came here with a group of 8 girls for a friends 40th birthday! The place is so cool inside--lots of rooms, all with a different decor or theme. Our server was wonderful, he was attentive all night and had a great positive attitude. Three of us ordered the sea bass which was absolutely amazing. Full of flavor, and a delicious sauce to go with the meal. One person ordered the fried chicken, and she felt the chicken was pretty flavorless but the side was good. A couple girls ordered the carne asada, and really enjoyed that as well. I'd say the biggest miss for our group was with the drinks. One gal ordered a vodka soda with lots of lemons. She recieved a literal glass of vodka, full, with a whole bottle of sparkling water on the side. This was so odd, but we're not the type to send things back so she went with it. Another lady ordered the manhattan and the server noticed immediately that it didn't look quite right, and had that fixed. It had come with an orange slice and no vermouth originally. I ordered the cucumber cocktail and that was decent. A few others ordered cocktails that they enjoyed. I'd definitely be back as it was a fun place with great service, and my dish was excellent. read more

Nice place with great ambiance, the group enjoyed a couple of their signature drinks that were refreshing given the 110 weather. Ordered the Brussel sprouts which were great. Also ordered the giant pretzel for the table and went well with the IPA. Prices are in the same range as other restaurants in the area. read more

Excellent food, fantastic service! Great experience. Definitely recommend this restaurant!

Stopped by Eight4Nine on a Saturday morning for brunch. The service was attentive, and all the food we ordered was fantastic. Highly recommend ordering the cinnamon roll basket for the table to share, the chiffon frosting was light, airy, and delicious. The gentleman at the hostess stand at the entrance was super sweet and took multiple pictures for us. read more

I've been to Eight4Nine countless times over the years for both business meetings and date nights, and it continues to impress. One of the reasons I keep coming back is the availability of private dining rooms that are conveniently located near the main dining area. If you're planning a group dinner meeting, just be aware that the sliding doors don't completely block out the noise from the dining room, so conversations may not be as secluded as you'd expect. That said, the food is consistently outstanding. The heirloom tomato salad is an absolute must-order. The crème fraîche dressing is incredible. Pro tip: save some bread to soak up every last bit of it. For the main course, the mesquite-smoked carne asada is exceptional. The meat is cooked perfectly, and the combination of pinto beans, ranchera sauce, and slightly sweet corn pudding creates a balanced and memorable dish. The portions are thoughtfully sized! Satisfying without leaving you feeling overly full. And whatever you do, don't skip dessert. They're all worth trying, but the macchiato cake is the standout and the perfect way to end the meal. Whether you're meeting clients, celebrating a special occasion, or simply enjoying a night out, Eight4Nine delivers excellent food, a welcoming atmosphere, and a dining experience that keeps me coming back. read more

Had such a wonderful lunch at this restaurant! The steak tacos are delish. Service was amazing as well, Tom is so kind! Such a fun vibe

Eight4Nine is located right in downtown Palm Springs and has a large outdoor patio that's heated, dog-friendly, and able to accommodate larger groups. We had our dogs with us and were seated outside right away by the GM (possibly the owner), who was welcoming and attentive. When our heater didn't work, he quickly replaced it and checked back in when it looked like our server hadn't arrived yet (he had and was just grabbing our drinks). There's also an indoor dining option upstairs that feels quiet and removed from the street. Service here is on the slower side, which we noticed throughout the patio, not just at our table. It didn't feel inattentive so much as unhurried, like the restaurant encourages you to settle in and enjoy the evening rather than rush through a meal. Our server was friendly, made a few jokes, and kept things light, even if we didn't see him often. We started with the corn and crab chowder, though the menu description was confusing regarding the crab. The entree is where things fell a bit flat for me. I ordered the bucatini and found the fennel overpowering. I only ate about a quarter of it, which was disappointing since this was my birthday dinner. My husband agreed (and that's saying something since he's a human garbage disposal). His skirt steak was well seasoned, and the corn pudding was the standout - smooth, lightly sweet, and well balanced. Overall, a pleasant atmosphere and smooth teamwork from the staff. Wonderfully presented birthday dessert. read more

I chose this spot specifically for their Thanksgiving menu--I was really excited to have duck for the holiday. The restaurant was packed, and it's a pretty large place, so even though we arrived right on time, we still waited about 15 minutes to be seated. Service felt off from the start. Our server was MIA for long stretches, and there were unusually long gaps between courses. Once we finished our meal, we waited at least 30 minutes before he checked on us, and then even longer to receive the bill. For the price of the fixed menu, it just didn't feel worth it. The flavors were decent but nothing memorable, and the dishes didn't taste particularly fresh. Overall, it was an okay meal, but it left us feeling underwhelmed. read more

Our first visit, and it was my 70th birthday! I'm known to be a very difficult diner, but when I'm pleased you'll know it. The food was wonderful, artfully presented and seasoned to perfection. The atmosphere is fun and cheery. The only slight consideration was quite a bit of time between courses for it not being busy. Needless to say, we shall return!! read more

Surprised this place doesn't have 5.0 rating. When we went we had a cute weekend with our daughter so we were pleased that they had mocktails. Then we found out our server Debbie (who was amazing by the way) was sober. She told us her sobriety date which was exact same as my moms! Just thought that was so neat. Love the inside decor and the fact that it is in the dessert makes it even better. We love palm springs and visit every year from San Diego. Can't wait to come here later this year and see what's new with 849! read more

So I was in charge of organizing my friends 60 bday , we picked 849 . The experience started lovely, getting greeted by the nice welcoming host that escorted us to this amazing cool dinning with typewriters on the wall . As the part of 10 arrived we went insane with a photo shoot . Our waiter came an greeted us , was patient with us and gave us some of his favorite dishes options. Our dinner shows up and wow I was so impressed with my dinner as well as the rest of the party of 10 My fried chicken was fantastic and juicy and moist. So 849 gets major brownie points ! The party of 10 was super happy and left 849 with just happy tummy's . Thank you 849 and the lovely staff !! See you again soon read more

Super cute ambiance with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Nice menu with options for everyone. 3 stars for food and service. The food was extremely bland (burger, veggie burger, and ahi). Service seemed very jumbled. It was not a busy night. Good place for a cocktail or glass of wine; not so much for a sit down dinner. read more

This is a 5+++++ review! I rented one of the rooms for a corporate function, and the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. The team was incredibly easy to work with and completely accommodating throughout the planning process. When we arrived, the tables were beautifully decorated and everything was perfectly set up. The staff was absolutely wonderful and professional. Lynn and Delia were hands down the best servers -- they truly made the evening special for both me and my guests. They went above and beyond in every way. When we were running out of time, they even helped us stuff gift boxes. They rearranged the room multiple times without hesitation and tracked down a USB cord for us -- none of which was technically their responsibility, but they did whatever we needed with a smile. The food was outstanding. The ahi appetizer was my personal favorite, though many of my guests raved about the Reuben (not usually my thing). The fried bacon with maple syrup was pure perfection. The Chicken Milanese was absolutely to die for -- the beurre blanc cream sauce was rich and flavorful, and the capers added the perfect finishing touch. And dessert... the 849 caramel macchiato cake was incredible -- light, airy, and completely delicious. We attend this conference every year, and after this experience, we will absolutely be back. My guests were blown away by the venue, the food, and especially the service. Lynn and Delia -- we'll see you next time! read more

This is such a cute place! We loved the art work on the walls and the fact that they had purse trees/hangers to place your purse during your visit. The Chilaquiles were delicious. I loved the flavor, but there was not enough spice for me. They were not soggy, but not crunchy either. I guess a good place in the middle. Short rib hash was absolutely delicious. Great flavor. Kind of sweet. Perfectly poached egg. This place has generous portions when it comes to their food. Even the labneh was huge and filling. The mimosa came with two refills which was also an amazing deal. I'd definitely recommend this place for a fun little brunch read more

Made a reservation here to host my friend's bachelorette party in one of their private rooms and it ended up being the perfect spot. The interior is such a vibe, very Hollywood glamour with a fun, elevated atmosphere. The host, wait staff, and manager were all very friendly and accommodating. We did the summer menu for the group, which included an appetizer, entree, and dessert for $54. Honestly an amazing value for how generous the portions were. I started with the farm glazed carrots which were tender and paired nicely with the hummus. For my entree, I had the braised short rib which was a massive slab of tender meat with asparagus on the side that was equally huge but surprisingly tender. For dessert, I had the lemon lavender creme brulee which was too sweet for my taste. The top sugar layer was too thick and I couldn't really taste the lemon. Would absolutely recommend this spot if you're hosting a private party. read more

I had been waiting to go to this restaurant for months. The price point is high so I wanted to save it for a special occasion so we waited to go for my birthday this year. I will say the ambience is amazing sitting outside. It was very nice and the service was great as well as our server was very friendly and professional. Also having the lights around outside, made it very calming. Although the service and ambience was great the food was lacking. There isn't a lot of options on the menu so it was hard to make a choice, but we went with the Carne Asada plate and the ravioli. Both my boyfriend and I once we ate our food, we were not satisfied and we actually had to go get more food because of the portion was so small for him. He needed extra. I was also not happy with the ravioli. It had an odd taste and was not very impressed. I don't think we'll be back here again, but it was good to try it out, but I'll stick with some of my other favorite restaurants in Palm Springs such as sand fish. read more

I want to start by saying the vibe and decorations are fabulous. It's chic, modern, mid-century lounge resort cool. Go to love on the interior. Service is fine, although the host is great. But table service is nothing to rave about but there is also nothing to complain about. Now for the simple food review. I only had the Niçoise salad.

We went to Eight4Nine at lunchtime and were delighted by the food, service, and attentiveness. The quality of the restaurant has been consistent ever since we started coming here over 4 years ago. Lunch today was no different. The place is impeccably maintained and many of the staff have been there for years which explains the consistency of the service. The host, Tom Collins (yes, that really is his name, and no, he didn't invent the eponymous cocktail), is always friendly and good humored. I had the ahi tuna poke bowl which was beautifully presented and way more sumptuous for lunch than needed. But every bite was fresh and delightful. My wife had the chile relleno that was well presented and delicious, though again quite big. The ambiance of the restaurant is elegant and very much reflects the mid-century Palm Springs vibe. Eight4Nine is a great value for money. Though it is not inexpensive, Willie and his team deliver a top-class product. read more
