    If I could give this place 10 stars, I WOULD. This place is SO BOMB. We came here for my husband's birthday dinner and OMG, we are so glad we did. We started with the yellowtail belly carpaccio and it was absolutely delicious. I seriously wish I had ordered the 10-piece because it was THAT DAMN GOOD. I also got the Baja Fresh Roll and it was . I asked them to cut it into 10 pieces to make it easier to eat, and I'm so glad I did because it let me savor it even longer. Every bite was so freaking good. We also got the spicy garlic edamame and I asked them to add salt--DELICIOUS. My husband ordered the Dragon Roll and absolutely devoured it. Honestly, this has to be some of the best sushi I've had in a VERY long time... and it's all the way out here in the desert?! Like WHAT?! They have market-fresh pricing on some items, and you can absolutely tell why. The quality of the fish is incredible and everything tasted so fresh. Seriously though, I don't even know how to rate this place. 5 stars? 10 stars? 100 STARS?! SO. DAMN. GOOD. And that's NOT the Sake talking! It's seriously that damn good!! Absolutely worth coming back to. We will definitely be back!

    I can't speak highly enough of how much we loved our dinner at Joyce's Sushi. We were drowning in options for dinner while in Rancho Mirage, and so ultimately I let my cravings for sushi take over. I'm so glad we did. The waiter seated us right away, and immediately brought out our drink orders. The Kirin Ichiban beer was ICE COLD. We placed our meal order, and the edamame was first to arrive. I CANNOT TELL YOU JUST HOW GOOD IT IS. IT IS THEIR SECRET WEAPON. Truly, we wanted to load up on the generous portion of edamame but only stopped because our sushi arrived right after. Having been a sushi lover for well over 25 years, I have to put this place in my Top 5 locations of all time. The all stars were the Spanish, Caterpillar, and Dragon rolls. The inside has a fun, relaxed vibe perfect for a quiet dinner for two. The food was so good we immediately boxed up what we couldn't finish as we didn't want it going to waste. Overall, Joyce's Sushi was the best restaurant during our trip to Rancho Mirage, and we plan on a return trip for every desert trip we take in the future.

    Looked for dinner in Palm Desert/Palm Springs during their slow season in the summer...super hot. This was a nice place to stop in a strip mall with an extensive menu and robot server. We got there near closing. It was good to try, and I think I would like to explore more places the next time we visit Palm Springs.

    Such a great experience at Joyce Sushi! Hannah gave us the best service -- so sweet, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They were amazing with our toddler and even gave him a little monster car and crayons to color with, which absolutely made his night. The menu is HUGE with so many options for everyone, not just sushi lovers. Everything was delicious and the whole experience felt so family-friendly and thoughtful. Definitely one of our new favorite spots! (Excuse the halfway-through photos... we forgot until we already dug in

    Came here last week after Coachella with a party of 10. The service did not disappoint! Our server Brandy was amazing! She handled everything incredibly well from the start. She was patient, organized, and kept a great attitude the entire time, even with all of our requests and the chaos that naturally comes with a large group. So huge shoutout to her for making it such a great experience The food was amazing. We ordered a good mix of appetizers, rolls, bento boxes, and the huge 30pc sashimi combo. Everything came out quickly and they did not miss on the flavor! Everything was seasoned perfectly, the fish was incredibly fresh, beautiful presentation, and the overall quality was just top tier!

    I came with my business associate and we came to Joyce Sushi for dinner. The service is excellent, the staff is very accommodating, and very professional. The food is 5 star. They use quality fish and the portion of the Jumbo Spider Roll is huge! We got a bottle of Sapporo and Hot sake. If you are ever in the area come visit Joyce Sushi. You won't be disappointed

    What a fun spot! The energy and service in here was great and it was packed! We sat at the sushi bar and getting to see our rolls made was an extra special treat. The sushi chefs are a great team and are great at what they do. We got an array of treats and every dish we had was delicious. I want to try everything on the menu and am looking forward to coming back again. Okay thanks bye!

    One of my favorite sushi places in the Coachella Valley! Always kind, always fresh and delicious. Just a heads up during season the wait can get quite long so make a reservation! The Cajun Tuna Roll and the Avocado Bomb are some of my favorite dishes.

    We enjoy coming to lunch quite often at Joyce's Sushi in Rancho Mirage. The lunch specials and service are always good. Nice ambiance with quiet music (although the music is usually instrumental Christian hymns). Lots of easy parking in the large parking lot.

    I'm confused by such high reviews for this place.... Maybe they are known for the tuna cutting show or it speaks to how bad the rest of the sushi places generally are in the area? It's not bad but nothing special with decent fish and rolls that were oddly served in bowls. Nothing tasted bad but nothing was that great but pricing seemed kinda high for what it was. They charged me dinner special prices at 2:30pm cuz they said lunch menu ends at 2pm but it didn't say that on the menu...

    75188 US Hwy 111, Indian Wells, CA 92210 Dined: September…read more11, 2026 Price range: Entrées approximately $38-$46; cocktails generally $15-$45+ This was my first time dining at The Nest, and my first impression was very positive. It's a nice restaurant with an attached bar area that had a DJ and was very lively on a Friday night. We chose to dine in the restaurant portion, where the atmosphere was a little more conducive to dinner and the service was good. I had the Chicken Piccata ($38) and thought it was very good. It was flavorful, the serving size was fair, and I felt the price was reasonable for the quality and the restaurant. Others at our table had the Pacific Sole Piccata ($46), and there were several appetizers and salads available in the $19-$38 range. My one disappointment was the cocktail pricing. Many of the drinks start around $19 and can go all the way up to approximately $45. I had a martini that tasted fine, but it was surprisingly small for the price. At those prices, I expected a more generously sized cocktail. Other than the drinks being overpriced in my opinion, I enjoyed the experience. The food was good, the service was solid, and the lively bar and DJ give the place a fun energy if you're looking for more than just dinner. Overall, a solid four-star first visit. I enjoyed The Nest and would definitely return in the future.

We started with dinner and ended up staying for the music, dancing, and all the fun that makes The Nest such a special place. I ordered the chicken piccata and honestly, it was the best I've ever had. The service was wonderful, and even though we were seated near the piano in the bar area where it can get a little loud, that's part of what makes it such a fun atmosphere. The best part of the night was having everyone together. My niece's boyfriend was visiting from Ireland, and we laughed and danced all night. I especially loved seeing my sister-in-law out on the dance floor and having so much fun. It was one of those nights where people of all ages were dancing, laughing, and just enjoying being together. We had such a great time that they went back again the very next night. The live music was fantastic, and it was great seeing Nick on saxophone. The crowd was a fun mix, the energy was high, and the whole place just felt happy. A coworker recently went during Restaurant Week and couldn't stop talking about the steak, the generous portions, and the peanut butter pie. The Nest has been a desert favorite for years, and there's a reason. It's always nice to see Dodi there and how much pride she takes in the restaurant. Most people think of The Nest for the music and dancing, but don't miss the food. It really is that good! One tip: go early or make a dinner reservation so you don't end up waiting in line. The Nest is still one of the most fun places in the desert!

Wine bar doesn't open till 5 which was when happy hour started. For the first hour, they had wine, well drinks and draft beer. A few small plates also offered. It's a wine and tapas bar. It's along El Paseo before you hit the main shopping area, depending on which way you come. Entrance has a nice wall created by ficus trees and mister spraying to keep you cool. There's a decent patio with a good amount of seating. Inside is where the party is. The place is set with two seating area. Right when you walk in is the bar. A good amount of hi top seating and tables. Hi top seating that are along the window were actually very uncomfortable. Padded seats were so narrow that seating was so uncomfortable but oh well. There's the other room seating area which houses all the wine on shelves. I believe it's also a wine store but that sectioned was closed for a private event. We just wanted a drink before dinner so no food was had. From the looks of the dishes that were coming out, they looked really nice. Tapas style dishes made for sharing. With happy hour, there was a couple dishes that was included. Also they offered a deal with a charcuterie board and a bottle included. We just went with a glass of their house red and white. And an order of spicy margaritas. It's a full bar so that was nice. Margaritas were great and house wine was decent. The service was great with the bartender who was a doll and very sweet. Made drinks and still had time to come check out on people. It was still early but it did pick up for happy hour which is from 5-6 right when they open. The place was quite nice and well decorated. Beautiful wine bar that's great for mingling with friends over food drinks and tapas. Will definitely be back for some food.
