The four of us stopped by Jake's Palm Springs for dessert for the first time, and it did not disappoint! The entire experience was top-notch from start to finish. The wait staff were absolutely amazing -- clearly well-trained in true hospitality. Everyone we interacted with was engaging, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly. We tried the chocolate cake and vanilla caramel dessert, both delicious! Sadly, the coconut cake had sold out (looks like we'll need to come earlier next time -- it must be a hit!). Our drinks were equally great, and the whole space is beautifully designed -- stylish yet comfortable. I also had the pleasure of meeting Scott, one of the owners, who made us feel so welcomed. We'll definitely be back soon -- next time for dinner! Roman read more

Jake's is pretty much perfect. A must-have brunch/lunch every time we are in Palm Springs. The cocktails are unique and the food is both delicious and reasonably priced. This latest go round included the fried chicken sandwich and the oatmeal cake which honestly might have been one of the best pieces of cake that I've had in my life. Special shout out to the staff for always being incredibly nice and helping us make our special occasions even more special each time we visit. read more

What a great brunch place. Good selections and not too expensive. Service was excellent and a typical Palm Springs indoor outdoor vibe. read more

After a string of recent mediocre meals and service, I must say that my wife and I were skeptical about the reviews on Jake's. We had an absolutely fabulous meal! The service was also great. My wife ordered a dirty martini with Tito's and it was phenomenal. The Chilean Seabass was melt in your mouth great, and flank steak w chimichurri are what we had for dinner and we were not disappointed. The food tasted fresh, it was hot, and it was a cool little environment sitting in the courtyard. Seriously this is the best dining experience we have had in a long time. read more

Really nice restaurant. We met out of town guests here - and they are BIG fANS of the restaurant. Service was good and very friendly, albeit maybe a touch slow at times when it seemed that servers "switched" on us. Restaurant didn't seem crowded. Food was really good. Their famous "deserts", however, seemed like a bit of a letdown. Cake was dry ... such a bummer because it looked wonderful in the display case. All in all, this is a good choice. Am I in a rush to return? Maybe not, but definitely would Jake's on my list of nice Palm Springs eateries. read more

I recently had lunch here with a friend. Great court-yard patio scene on cool-mild days. The first time I ate at Jake's was in the early 2000s. I did not recall the gorgeous setting. Jake's is a beautiful place to dine. Now for the food. I really enjoyed the Seawich sandwich. A tempura- like filet sole. The fish is fresh and delicious with heirloom tomatoes, mixed greens, spicy Cole slaw, caper aioli, on a brioche bun. I was pleased to see a lot of greens in the sandwich. There is also a side of homemade chips. A yummy lunch. Peto, our server was excellent! Peto made sure that we were enjoying our meal and drink(s). Thank you Peto for the friendly and prompt table service! Up front, the hosts are friendly too. There is also dessert you can order to take home in the display cases. I would definitely return here for outdoor dining on a gorgeous cool- Palm Springs afternoon. A very nice bistro atmosphere. read more

We had a lovely dining experience from the ambiance to the food, and the servers/host. We were a group of 6 and some of our friends who have been to this restaurant were commenting on how they were pleasantly surprised with the window wall that now blocks the view of the parking lot--you would never know. We started off with some fun cocktails like Thoes of Passion and Passionate Paloma. Our group had such a wonderful time, and the Chilean Sea Bass was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection! We ordered the General Tso Cauliflower appetizer and gobbled it up. We also ordered the Roasted Olives and fought over who would get the last olive! A couple of other dishes folks ordered was the Steak Wedge Main and a Steak Wedge Salad which they too thoroughly enjoyed. One of our friends decided to order the Pad Thai dish and was extremely regretful as he watched the rest of us dive into our entrees with delight. To make up for it we ordered a dessert to satisfy our poor friend's unsatisfied palate. read more

We have seen this place driving by several times over the last couple years but never even thought about it. A friend recommended it so we decided to try several weeks ago and so glad we did. The courtyard seating is beautiful and the whole layout is really well done. We tried the burger and it was amazing as was the quesadilla and the wrap. We just went back again today and didn't disappoint. Service was on point and really had a great experience. Trying the salty peanut brownie to go, betting it will be as good as everything else. read more

We love coming to Jake's. The service is terrific. For appetizer we shared the ahi tuna nachos. We ate it so fast I didn't get a picture. Great for sharing. For dinner my husband got the meatloaf again. I usually order Seabass but this time I tried the spicy shrimp pad tai. It was very flavorful. For desert we had a peanut butter fudge pie. Very rich, great with a cup of coffee. Next time I'm going to try the rigatoni. read more

The Good: Desserts looked amazing, but we didn't try any......Had a delicious strawberry-jalapeño margarita and dirty martini.....the olives appetizer made the table happy.....location was easier to find parking in the heart of the action in Palm Springs The Bad: Seabass was average at best, chicken fried devil-egged appetizer was "blah", Brussel Sprouts also average......$400 bill for 3 drinks, 3 appetizers and 3 entrees The Bottom Line: WAY, WAY overpriced for the quality read more

Quaint & cozy, not too loud, delicious food, attentive service and a dessert selection paralleled by very few places in town. (check out the dessert case and you'll see) We went for Valentine's Day dinner and thankfully it was not some tacky, over-priced prix fixe, was a simple a la carte and was an enjoyable experience. Bravo. read more

We went to a lot of perfectly fine meals in Palm Springs, but few excellent ones. This brunch at Jake's was excellent. The ambience is really nice - a lot of little rooms that feel like separate but connected dining experiences - most of them indoor/outdoor. We sat outside on the Lanai which was quiet and pleasant. I had the OAXACAN OLD FASHION which was one of the best cocktails I have had in quite some time. Smoky, sweet, with actual squares of dark chocolate in it. Believe what the menu says about slow cocktail service - my drink did actually come out after my meal was halfway over, but it was a nice after service. I had the Monte Cubano for a meal - which was decadent - French and Cuban cuisine combined was rich and flavorful and filling. My spouse had the shrimp tacos which she really enjoyed. read more

ABSOLUTELY BEST BRUNCH!!! The foodis just so good, fresh and delicious.. as a vegan, I usually have trouble finding good selection of food. But this place was just perfect! The waiter was so sweet to accommodate my needs, and change the dish, and the amazing chef actually made refried beans ESPECIALLY for me that are fully vegan! They even have the most delicious tofu- just ask to add on any dish. Also Best Bloody Mary in town! Me and all my friends had a blast! Great service, super fun vibe and amazing food and drinks. read more

I've been here five times and have always had an amazing experience. This time we came after leaving a disappointing reservation at another restaurant and knew that we could salvage the night at Jake's. Cocktails are always on point and service is friendly and attentive. Great vibes in the courtyard, lanai and main dining room. The sea bass is incredible and my husband swears by the steak wedge salad. The desserts are also mind blowing. Will definitely be coming by every time we're in the area! read more

The building is am old bungalow with a large courtyard and a small inclosed room off to the side when you come in. When making your reservation I suggest getting something in the courtyard it is amazing for those Palm Springs evenings. The small inclosed room is a killer to the person sitting facing the sun during sunset. It has a great vibe but one of the downside is finding parking which is out of their control. The food was good decent size portions, service was good. Drinks looked amazing and my friends said they were good. I did not try them personally because I was the designated driver that night. The desserts were amazing brought a few back to the hotel room to try later. Next time I want to try the Sunday brunch and not be the designated driver. read more

Great dessert options Very good service Ambiance a little loud My wife ordered a dry Belvedere martini very cold It came back at room temperature and she had to request ice cubes The best part of the meal was the wedge salad, except it had a little bit too much dressing My wife ordered the chicken Milanese which was overcooked very dry in the mashed potatoes along with the chicken was warm at best I ordered the meatloaf and mac & cheese, which had way too much barbecue sauce and very little flavor. The mac & cheese along with the meatloaf was again warm at best. The mac & cheese was very dry and not very flavorful. read more

Our good to in Sundays for brunch when in town! Deserts are something out of a magazine photo!

We made reservations for Sunday brunch and were promptly seated in an out of the way empty room. We ordered cups of coffee which took forever to arrive. And when they did, they were cold. I mentioned the oversight to the manager and he just brushed off the situation without doing anything. Our entrees finally came and later two cups of replacement coffee made their presence. But the server did not take the rejected cups away. This was very awkward. My brunch tostadas were ok but nothing special. Food fine; service bad. read more

Fantastic! We came here for thanksgiving. The meal was incredible. It came with a butternut squash soup and pumpkin pie! We also tried the Mac n cheese and wedge salad. Service was a little slow but we expected it due to thanksgiving. The decor and ambiance was very nice. read more

Wow! What a beautiful place! Clean and a great atmosphere with fabulous decor! We sat and a little corner booth in the back room at the window and it was so comfortable and cozy. The service was quick and attentive but never a bother. We got the meatloaf and chicken piccata and we loved both! The asparagus with the grill flavor was delicious! Chicken and meatloaf were extremely tender and packed with flavor! We got two desserts to go and they were both delish!!!!!! Everyone there was happy to help and make suggestions! We will definitely be back because everything on the menu looks great! Thank you!!!!! read more

After years of hearing raves, and a canceled reservation due to a nasty storm 3 years ago, my husband & I finally made it to Jake's for Valentine's Day, and it did not disappoint. We played it safe this time and made reservations inside. The dining room is pleasant and unpretentious, but I must admit their porch, side patio & courtyard seating provides an even lovelier atmosphere. Next time! Now to the food. I cannot say enough. I started with calamari. It was light and tender with two wonderful sauces (one of them a Vietnamese nuac cham that I literally wanted to drink); my husband started with his favorite appetizer, steak tartare, and he practically licked the plate clean. My entree was the best Chilean sea bass I've ever had. Light, with a perfect sear and yummy miso-yaki glaze, on top of creamy mashed potatoes and perfectly cooked asparagus. My husband had the tagliatelle bolognese. I grabbed a taste and it was superb with perfectly cooked pasta. Photos below. The service was exceptional and not rushed. Some might have found it a tad slow but the place was full and I loved being able to take a little time with our Valentine's Day dinner. Water glasses filled routinely and a couple of "check-ins" to see if we needed anything. The restauraunt is what I'd call upscale unpretentious, but I wouldn't call it expensive. Of course that's relative and a bit subjective. Dinner for two, with two courses each, a mocktail and a glass of wine, came to $145. read more

Hard not to order dessert first because you walk past this spectacular array of cakes and cookies and bars! We sat in the bar on the patio and had a great time with Billy our waiter. He makes a fantastic cocktail! I had the "Fish Sandwich" it featured Sole - OMG - TDF! It was spectacular. We also shared the arugula date burrata salad... it had a little too sweet of a balsamic dressing for me. It was good not my favorite though. And of course, we had to share the payday bar and the citrus cake, which were completely delightful. It was nice and cool sitting at the bar in the courtyard with the fans running really cute! read more

Wow. I have had Jake's in my Apple Maps guide for quite some time after sooo many people suggested it. After going, I will now be one of those people. I cannot SHUT UP about it. This review is long overdue. One night, my boyfriend and I wandered in, sat at the bar and sat next to the most fabulous couple. They suggested everything, from main course items, to drinks, to dessert. It felt like a guided tour de Jake's! We got EVERYTHING they told us to-- and they weren't wrong or off in the slightest. Wow. Just wow. A culinary experience and a bartenders dream to go out. Their bar set up was wildly admirable from a fellow bartenders perspective. Very clean, tidy and orderly. Plus the bartenders personality was never a performance, and wasn't pushy or overbearing at all, which can sometimes happen. Whoever owns or is running this joint, deserves a round of applause. We were thrilled with the service, food and ambiance and I'm not just saying that due to Yelp, I was truly impressed. When food and drinks cost an arm and a leg these days in this economy, and in this uncertain world of unprecedented times , you want to go out and relax and know that your money is going towards something you will enjoy and not regret when the bill comes. Jake's does it all. I'm so happy we found this place. I'm so happy we found ourselves at the bar and I'm so happy that the couple next to us were thoroughly helpful in our dining experience. We cannot wait to go again. read more

Had been going there with groups of friends for years. You'd think management would at least have the decency to keep their word and call us back. read more

What an amazing great food and service! This was my first time here and came with friends who hadn't been there in a about a year and we all said we would come back with no doubt. We started with a Pinot Noir meant is and deviled eggs. If my mom had made these like this growing up it would have been one of my favorites! What a great twist but in a good way on deviled eggs. For entrees we had the fish (I don't remember what my friend had), my other friend had chicken piccata and I had chicken Milanese. We were too full for dessert - but the ones I saw on nearby tables looked really tasty! I would say this is one of my new PS favorites when I visit my friends. read more

We sat down immediately in the room in the front. They actually sat 3 tables at once . While we were looking at the drink menu a woman came up and asked what we would like to drink. I think it was the Manager, which was nice to help out a server that was busy with other guests. We told her we weren't ready as only one of us saw the cocktail menu. A couple minutes later Our server Gerardo came to the table. We ordered a couple spicy Watermelon cosmos. I had Iced tea. We also ordered a couple appetizers, The Blistered Cherry tomato Burrata and General Tso Cauliflower. The Burrata was excellent with 2 large pieces of Burrata and 4 cherry tomatoes. Tasted wonderful. General Tso cauliflower was a very large portion it has a nice flavor, my only issue that I thought it was a little heavy, but it tasted good.We were also server fresh baked rolls which were very tasty. We had a little long with for our entrees, which was no fault of the restaurant as were delayed our order as we weren't ready. Entrees rack of lamb we good as was the Bolognese Pappardelle. My baby back ribs were good however I was expecting more pineapple flavor as in a sweeter sauce, as opposed to a very savory. All in all literally the best service we have had in the Desert . The Hostess the server assistant and our server Gerardo were very attentive and made us feel at home. We will be back read more

I travel to Palm Springs at least once a year for work and I always make sure to eat at Jake's. I always get the Rack of Lamb and it's always perfect! The desserts are also incredible! They've under new ownership and have remodeled the restaurant since last year and they did an incredible job! Also, met the new owners tonight and they were so nice. If I'm not back in October, I'll definitely be back in April next year and I'll definitely be coming back to Jake's! read more

Fantastic service and brunch menu! Perfect spot to enjoy your Sunday morning. Plan to grab dessert at the end!

Went to Jake's Palm Springs this Thursday. Nice looking place although it is expensive. Service was good. Food was good with the exception of one thing. We ordered at the bar during happy hour which was all day on Thursday , they call it " thirsty Thursday" . Got what they called " Potato skins " what they were was something that looked like you took a potato peeler skinned a potato and then put in fryer. Never saw anything like it , not good I have to say. And as a kicker they charged full price and not happy hour prices! Didn't notice at the time. So for the most part it was good with shaky start. read more

Amazing experience at Jake's. We chose to sit at the bar for dinner and our bartender Nada was incredible. We ordered the SEAFOOD CAMPECHEAN and Calamari. Both were fantastic but the campechean stole the show. Don't like the peppers scare you. It's not very spicy and is a stunning appetizer presented in a large martini glass. For dinner I had the Chilean Sea Bass which was absolutely out of this world! I can't say enough how the tender and flavorful the dish was. I can't wait to have it again. My husband ordered the Steak Wedge and was super happy with the cut of meat and perfectly cooked. We happened to meet the owners who made our night so wonderful. We will be back every time we come to psp! read more
