We were not disappointed at all. Upon arriving, there was a musician playing, and they did seat us off to the right so we could not see but could hear still. There is outdoor and indoor seating, but at the time we came it appeared that the outdoor was reserved for an event. We happily sat inside! Having met Jeremy's parents earlier in the day who also recommended his restaurant, and they were just lovely, we had hoped to possibly meet Jeremy too. I wanted to try everything, but we opt on getting a few dishes to share. Our son ordered the filet mignon and they were able to substitute mashed potatoes for fries. Amazing!! The mac & brisket appetizer appeared to be the highlight and specialty and we just had to order it. Every bite was cheeesy and delicious with the brisket very moist. We couldn't go without ordering the Brussels sprouts and it had a twist with ponzu sauce and pineapple. Definitely a different take and I thoroughly enjoyed the taste. Every bite was foodgasmic and I highly recommend!!! I knew coming here that some Yelpers have experienced wavering in quality, so glad we did not experience that at all. As of the date that we came, we understood that the restaurant had been listed for sale, not sure if Jeremy sold it yet or not. I hope not, we plan on coming back this summer!

So why only four out of five stars then? It is mandatory in my rating scheme that I would be willing to do a 30+ min detour just to dine or drink here, and as much as I loved the place: that would be a tad too much to ask. So if in the area and have a craving for a great burger, fries and a beer: you will be very very happy here.

I've eaten fish at plenty of restaurants, and these have to rank among some of the best I've had. Great food, friendly atmosphere, excellent service, and reasonable prices. What more can you ask for? Highly recommended!

But it filled up quickly and is definitely a regular spot for a lot of locals. Great to see as that meant we were in a good spot. Ordered the beet salad first and that was outstanding. Good freshness and portion size. Ordered the 6 piece wings. Server was kind of enough to serve them dry with all the sauces on the side. That was great to try all the sauces which were all good. We then ordered the chicken sandwich and fries. Sandwich was great. Fries could have been seasoned a bit more. Plenty of drink options. We enjoyed all we had. Would definitely go back on our next visit to Palm Desert.

My granddaughter had the basic cheeseburger and she loved it! She is also very particular about how her food is cooked and apparently according to her it was, perfect! I love that this is a family owned restaurant, husband and wife team. They were both super nice and very attentive. I am definitely stopping back in on my way from and to Arizona. I'm also going to tell all my family about this place so they can stop by as well. Great spot, clean, welcoming, great service and delicious food.

I can't imagine how they handle a full house. We ordered four pizzas with two toddlers in tow and were quoted 30 minutes. At 40 minutes, we were told two were ready and two were still in the oven. Another 25 minutes passed before a third came out. The staff then seemed annoyed that we kept waiting at the front, which a phone order would have easily avoided. The fourth pizza finally arrived after 1 hour 20 minutes, and our kids were exhausted. Finally got our pizzas 3 cold and one hot! The pizza itself was just okay, with crusts that were hard across the board. The staff seemed unsure how to run the kitchen, overloaded the oven, and one worker burned his hand. The team wasn't particularly friendly either. Would not recommend.

Off a dark desert highway (CA-86 to be specific), hot wind in my hair, warm smell of tortillas…read morerises up through the air... On a scorchingly hot summer Saturday, we found ourselves meandering through the Anza desert south of Palm Springs. There is nothing out here, folks, except the barren desolation of an abandoned dream that is the Salton Sea. Nestled among the forsaken blocks of a residential community that never came to be is Las Tias Mexican Food. A little slice of culinary heaven in the midst of blight, it is worth every hour of the drive to get there from wherever you are. This is the place that earns you your legit "hipster dining" credential and provides anecdotes to drop at that next gallery opening or trendy gala. A pop-up style restaurant in the garage of the proprietors, Las Tias is authentic enough to be two hundred miles south. These ladies are making it all from scratch, right down to the homemade masa and hand-pressed tortillas. We watched them prep fresh veg and meats, including pollo, carne asada, al pastor, cabeza, birria, and more. Even beyond the tacos, the menu is substantial and everything we tried was delectable. The portions are generous, to say the least, and their simple salsas are flavorsome. Any doubt we might have had about this random little spot was completely alleviated by the steady flow of carry-out customers the entire time we were there. We chose to eat in, which meant sitting at one of the two tables set up under an event-sized tent outfitted complete with misters and fans. After a day of hiking in the hundred-plus degree weather, we were delighted to come across this little oasis. Load up the gang, road trip through the desert, and get yourself some tasty grub and an experience you'll talk about for years!
