    This isn't the Red Barn of old. It's been completely transformed into a mashup of desert oddity and unexpected cool. Think Western saloon meets art house fever dream. Somehow it works. The whole place feels like a mirage that decided to stick around. It's quirky, a little dusty in the best way, and fully committed to its own wild vibe. It shouldn't make sense across the street from The Paseo and yet it totally does. Live music is raw and real. It hums with the kind of energy that feels both accidental and exactly right. The decor is bizarre in the best way. Taxidermy? Maybe. Neon? Possibly. Vibes? Absolutely. Service is warm, welcoming, and easy on the eyes. Definitely worth a wander in.

    This bar was truly unexpected. I was having dinner on El Paseo and looked for bars in the area. From the outside it looks like a red barn and when you walk in it's a colorful, chic cocktail bar with mismatching furniture and cool art pieces. The bartenders are great and Britney was super sweet and funny. If you're in Palm Desert definitely check it out. It's a vibe!

    Some fun drinks .. I forgot the name lol

    Visited the Red Barn this past Friday night ... so this review is purely based on this one experience clearly. I'll start off by saying I do want to come back another time.. maybe when it opens and I can grab a spot at the bar and really take in any other type of vibe this place can offer. Now as for Friday, I was told in advance they would have the little rope ..and a dress code so I walked in prepared for a type of environment that would be a little more upscale chic.. boy was I wrong lol. I get it's called Red Barn but I saw more ladies in cowgirl gear than Stagecoach! Then the other half looked like they belonged in RHOC circa 2010. It was funny and odd. The ladies in the back room were belligerent drunk ..we saw one girl semi crawling ... I would hope she dropped something and she just awkwardly was looking for it.. but I really don't know. Then there was another group of folks playing that weird game with their phones where you guess what the word is??.. my students play this btw. Anyways, they were as loud as the music playing which kept going in and out! I'm sure at one point some basic artist like Rufus came on. Ok so then the real show was when one of the girls got on top of the table to do god knows what (dance?) and then we slowly almost watched her head get chopped off from the ceiling fan lol... well not literally obviously but she bumped her hair and I swear her long ponytail was seconds away from getting caught in the fan! I think that's when we decided the show was over. Drinks are pricey but what the hell isn't anymore. I don't mind dropping $25 on a drink but not when there is a girl in jeans on a table swinging her head. Where was security? lol Ok the highlight was Kenzie, very lovely young lady who was our server. Her outfit was cute. She was very attentive and had a fun vibe to her. She helped us decide on drinks and I appreciate her input. Ok the decor in there is nice and I see the work that was put into it. But if I want those vibes I'll go to the Saguaro pool at 2pm on a Saturday and have a $16 frozen margarita instead. Overall, interesting place and Yeahhh man I'd go back for more stories to go back home with)

    Walked in here with my boyfriend to see what was behind the red doors. We walked in and appreciated how nicely everything was laid out. There were unique sculptures and chairs all around. The drinks were solid. 7/10. I appreciated the servers coming around and checking in on us! We were tucked away in a back room so having someone checking in on us and asking if we needed another drink was nice! I definitely recommend this place! :)

    This was our first time here since the remodel. I love everything about the inside decor. Super cool. Every room is a bit different. The drinks were super pricy but also super delicious. Go check it out !

    We loved this bar before the renovation. We love it even more now! The eclectic vibes make it such a cool location. Here on a Monday and they have a dj and it was fairly busy. There's no food, but the service was amazing. This place is good for small and large parties...

It clearly caters to a sophisticated crowd--very similar in vibe to their Calabasas location. While parking is accessible in the rear, it can get congested during peak season. The menu is extensive with plenty of excellent selections, though the pricing is definitely premium. For instance, a Cobb salad topped with fish can easily exceed $45; while the quality is high, that's a significant jump over nearby staples like Daily Grill. Service was friendly but lacked consistency; our server disappeared mid-meal without a hand-off, requiring us to flag down other staff. Overall, it's a bright, airy, and stylish spot well worth a visit, provided you're prepared for the 'luxury' price point.

    SHORT ANSWER: Yes in many ways…read more LOCATION: on the corner next to FARM, so a fall back if you do not have FARM reservations and hate disappointment of being turned away. FACILITY: Small, limited seating indoors with very nice, fun, outdoor seating areas. Love this place. MENU: Simple, easy to understand, great photos online if you have any questions. FOOD PREP: Very well done, like professional in just how it looks. FOOD QUALITY: Professional in how it also tastes... Watermelon Gazpacho was perfect with drinks prior to main. LIBATIONS: drinks and bartender were excellent, fun, and the photo print was very cool. WAITSTAFF: just so nice, and fun making the experience all that much better. We have been enjoying The Plaza Theater so spending a little more time in Palm Springs and this will be one of our favorites places to relax prior to an event. OVERALL VALUE: Good, but it is Palm Springs, outdoors, great locations, classy.. no, not inexpensive but well worth it. TIP: I'd say be nice, be patient, and you will get a table. Don't be an angry rude touron, we don't need that vibe and we see some of that in PS.. You can try for reservations, not sure if they take off season.

I'll consider rewriting the review another time, again. One star given by the goodness of the food, which is mostly an ingredient thing.

While the food was great, the service disappointed me greatly. When we were seated we were asked for drink orders and when we said we needed a second to decide our server left. this normally wouldn't be an issue except for the fact that she left us for around 30 minutes. when she came back we decided it would be easier to order it all at once. it then took another 30 minutes to get our drinks, and even more time for our food. When appetizers came out all of us were shocked that we did not receive plates. She brought them over later, but by that time we were finished with our appetizer. All in all the food, the view, and the place was very nice, I just wish that they could improve their service a tad bit.

Our original seafood plan fell through (fully booked, of course, because that's how these things go), so we pivoted last minute. Expectations were...moderate. What we got? A full-on flavor win. First things first: the coconut shrimp. Order it. Don't discuss it. Just do it. Crispy, sweet, a little tropical magic--gone way too fast. Then came the blackened mahi mahi tacos...wow. The kind of "close your eyes mid-bite" good. And the crab cakes? I actually felt a little emotional taking that last bite. No shame. The real plot twist, though? The kids. Our notoriously picky eaters didn't just tolerate the food--they enjoyed it. Like, voluntarily ate it. Parents, you know how rare that is. The vibe struck that sweet spot too--dimly lit and relaxed, with a breezy island feel that somehow still worked for a family night out. I was half expecting to feel out of place with kids in tow, but it couldn't have been more welcoming. The staff was warm, attentive, and made the whole experience easy. So yeah, what started as a backup plan turned into one of those unexpectedly great nights. Safe to say we'll be back--this time on purpose.

Lively, diverse, energized full of bright faces that bring light to the dimly lit space. Service was stellar - attentive, on it, anticipated needs/preferences before they were even addressed. A quick anecdote, the waitress made PROACTIVE decisions knowing I am Vegan, not just reactive - a rare thing outside of high dining restaurant. Red wine flight included a fantastic Cab & Cab Reserve, and a "very good" Pinot...and that's coming from a person who does not drink Pinot. I didn't care for the blend but then again I never care for a blend as it is. Food was "American" style tapas - small plates of well crafted foods ranging from flatbread pizza to meatballs to vege pockets and (for me) a "Vegan Stack" composed of rice, mango, avocado, and a delicious spicy mayo. Tiramisu dessert disappeared in all of 20 seconds, well plated and beautifully crafted.
