    Gimlet and Hollys Martini
    Krista Lou ..

    So unassuming from the outside. The inside hosts so much for your eyes and soul. Vintage seating and lighting. Bar set up with light coming in. The staff were all friendly and proficient. The food, Asian flavors that had us not wanting to stop eating! Drunk menu had great options!

    Step back in time with the decor, but definitely not with the food. The atmosphere has a classic, old-school feel, while the food and drinks are fresh, flavorful, and well-executed. I ordered the espresso martini, which was a fun twist on the classic, and my sister got a mocktail that was similar to an Italian soda. Both arrived quickly and were delicious. To start, we shared the spinach artichoke dip and the goddess salad. I'll let the photos do most of the talking, but both dishes were packed with flavor and the portions were generous. For our entrees, we ordered the seared ahi with fries, a Pilot's Burger, and the Copper Room grilled steak with carrots and the side of sauteed green beans. Honestly, there wasn't a single thing on the table that disappointed. Everything was cooked well, tasted great, and our service was good from start to finish. The food was so filling that we didn't even save room for dessert. The only reason for the missing star was a policy--or decision--that made absolutely no sense to us. My 80-year-old mother asked if her hamburger could be cut in half, and we were told the chef would only do it for an additional charge. Considering the quality of the service and hospitality we experienced everywhere else, that felt surprisingly petty and unnecessary. Thankfully it was the only sour note of the evening, because the food, drinks, and service were otherwise outstanding.

    We come up to the desert two times a year and always look for gems, and here we are, found another one! The food was insanely good. Too many to choose from, but you have to try the pork belly. Cocktails are absolutely classic and they have some very nice elaborate cocktails as well. The jazz band was the icing on the cake.

    Came here for a birthday dinner. Was recommended by our Airbnb host. So guessing it's the most decent restaurant in the area of Joshua Tree. Made a reservation ahead of time which i highly recommend as it was packed. The interior decor is 60's diner chic. Very cute and eccentric. Waitress took our order- felt a bit of pressure to order a drink but i opt out of alcohol these days and nothing really stood out to me. Partner got old fashioned. He said it was good. Ordered the tofu spring rolls and marinated cucumbers to start and got the cheeseburger (medium rare) and added fries which comes with ketchup and yuzu mayo? dip. Partner ordered chicken lettuce cups and chicken skewer. The appetizers came first and the mains came too fast like right after. But i understand if it's busy and they need to get people their food quickly. Marinated cucumbers 3/5 (partner said he liked them, not like din tai fung marinated cucumbers which is what i expected) Tofu spring rolls 5/5 Fries 5/5- so fresh and not dark and burnt Hamburger 4/5- good but meat isnt seasoned- only thing we finished (shared half half) Chicken lettuce cups- 4/5 (partners rating- didnt try this) Chicken skewer- 3/5- bit burnt Dessert was on the house for birthday! Got dark chocolate ice cream (3 scoops)- very nice, rich, tastes house-made but not sure it is. Overall ambiance is cool here and food is decent. Would recommend if in the area looking for a nice place to eat with eccentric vibes.

    This restaurant is set away from primary Palm Springs. We took a drive one night to explore and try this place out. I love that it's placed on the landing strip and enjoyed reading the history behind its existence. When you walk in you feel like you're stepping into another time. It's original decor and wait staff is very friendly. We ordered the spinach artichoke dip, ahi tuna starters, Copper Room steak, cheeseburger and Smash Burger. I ordered Tequila Sours and they were delicious! This place was such a fun experience, I would highly recommend!

    Arrived and we given a not so great table even though I had pre booked via open table. Luckily the hostess was so accommodating and within about 15/20 minutes we were moved further back away from the jazz band. The band was fab but our original table made it hard to have a conversation. Both our waiter and waitress were friendly and informative. Our waiter was great at up selling and had my husband buying a dessert even though he swore he was full. Food is good but the cocktails are the real star of the show.

    Cake fee added to multiple tables (for bringing birthday cupcakes).  Fine with fee, but for the table where they were consumed.

    The Copper Room seems like a fabulous place with a great vibe, but our recent experience left us feeling unwelcome and unappreciated (and trust me... we don't need a lot). Thirty of us (reasonable adults age 50+, many meeting for the first time) booked 5 separate OpenTable reservations to get acquainted before a birthday party the next day. Each table had its own reservation with enough seats for everyone. Throughout the evening, staff were quick to tell us 'that's not how we do things here' without offering much of an explanation of how things are actually done. This came up regarding more than two people standing at the host stand for their reservation (they eventually pointed us to a patio, which they could have just done from the get-go), our multiple reservations (the only difference between us and any other table is that we had a shared reason for being there), and when we asked if we could evenly split a check across more than one credit card at a table of 8. The policies themselves were fine, the tone however was condescending. We also understand outside food fees (one of us brought a box of cupcakes in honor of the birthday), but charging each table a $25 "cake fee" when cupcakes were only consumed at one table felt excessive. We had high hopes for a place we were excited to visit. We hope they refine their approach for future guests.

    Anthony was an exceptional server! We only went for opening/sunset/mocktails to check out this restaurant we hadn't been to yet. I ordered the cucumber as an app and they were perfect. Ambiance was swanky and gorgeous. I love the mirrored wall. I will definitely have to go back!

    Another fun meal! Late celebration of my birthday. All the servers wished me a happy, the band sang to me and they gave us a choice of a free dessert. So lovely. I always enjoy the food and the vibes. The retro style is immaculate. If you need a bit more quiet or want to chat best to sit closer to the bar. We had the chicken wraps, veggie spring rolls, fried rice, carrots, cucumbers, edamame. Everything was good. The chocolate cake was excellent. I'm always happy to dine and hang here when I'm in the area. The service was very attentive. Very.

    Copper room grilled steak and peanut noodle salad
    Sophie D.

    Excellent food, excellent vibe, good service. A must in Joshua Tree! If you can get a reservation during sunset, do it. Food: the quality is unmatched for the price. Dishes are shareable portions. Our favorites were all of them grilled steak was tender and carrots completed it well. Chicken cutlet comes with salad and is so crispy. Shishito peppers had a great sauce. Bread pudding for dessert! Parking: lot Service: good. At first when we walked in, we have some issues with friendliness. The staff couldn't have been bothered to acknowledge our party. But the waitress was excellent. Vibe: very hip I wish we lived closer. I'd easily be there this weekend.

    Dusty Dirty Martini

    Such a nice escape from the desert. Very 1950s/1960s vibe. We went on a Tuesday and there was AMAZING music by the Melancholies. Drinks were delicious. Our server was very sweet and attentive.

    Goddess salad and fries
    Jennifer E.

    What a cute, dainty and cozy space. The food was incredible, didn't get a chance to take a photo of the shishito peppers and cucumbers but insanely flavorful. Sharing a bunch of things is the key to get a dent in the menu. The team and service was awesome. They were able to seat us pretty much right away without a reservation

    This restaurant/Bar is a really nice and cozy place with a great atmosphere. The food is absolutely delicious, and the service is super friendly and attentive, which really adds to the overall experience. It's a great spot to enjoy good food and perfect for a Date night, Easily one of the best places in the area.

    What is the corkage fee and is there a decent wine list? I'm assuming not.

    I contacted them for you. Here's your answer: Hi Anita,… 

    Is this place 21+?

    It is not, they were incredibly accommodating to our one year old. That said, it is not the best vibe for children but definitely possible

    Is there a "best seat in the house" table of 4 for dinner recommendations?

    If the weather is nice, outside is beautiful especially during sunset, then the staff turns the fire pit on and you can continue to enjoy the views outside

    Does this place add a 18% service charge on all checks?

    Yes

I was going to order the Lasagna but was told they were out of it for the night. They were also out of the Pan Seared Salmon and evidently, the Mojave Veggie Burger (overheard the staff member telling the table next to us this). I ended up going with the Mojave Gold Grass-Fed Burger, and my bf ordered the Steak Frites. The food was good. I really enjoyed my burger. The sauce was delicious, and the fries were seasoned very well. I usually like to eat my fries with sauce but these fries could be eaten on their own. As for the overall experience, it was okay. We ordered a total of three dishes - two entrees and one dessert. Our dinner lasted for almost two hours, most of which were spent waiting. It took a while for the staff member to come take our orders, and after we placed our orders, it took some time for the food to come out. The Steak Frites came out wrong; my bf asked to substitute the fries with broccolini but they still gave him fries. They did take it back to the kitchen but it took a while for the dish to come back out afterward. We asked for hot water but that never came out. We also had to ask for ketchup a couple times. When we were given the bill at the end of the night, there was an extra dish that we did not order on it. Of note, the restaurant was mild to moderately busy but definitely not crowded this night. All in all, food and ambiance were good. Staff was nice and friendly, but service could use some improvement.

My friend ordered the matcha latte, and that was just as disappointing. The matcha was extremely watered down and had very little flavor. To make things worse, the cashier was rude and had a standoffish attitude, which made the experience even less enjoyable. The AC also wasn't working, so it was uncomfortable inside. Overall, this place is way overhyped. The interior is cute, but the drinks and customer service were a huge letdown. Definitely not worth the money or the hype.
