    Beautiful aesthetic with ambient lighting, very cozy not too loud. the calamari was delicious and crispy had a little kick to it Burger look like a Krabby Patty, very thick. my only concern was the bruschetta being too vinegary and having to aftertaste otherwise the service was immaculate and very attentive.

    Everything for us was exceptional. It service was on point. From our waitress to the manager. We sat in the patio and in December the weather was perfect 70°. We arrived in time to listen to a mellow guitarist. Lovely. Ok, on to the food. We started out with perfect calamari, I had the wedge salad with curry chicken soup. My mouth is watering just writing about it. My friends enjoyed BLT, with a caesar salad. When in Palm Desert this is a must try restaurant. You'll want to come back again and again.

    Zucchini Fries

    We had just got into town and came across The Hideout. They have garage parking (free). It is located upstairs right at the top of the escalator. There is an outside patio with plenty of seating and there was even live music going on. We requested to sit inside. There is a full bar with seating as well. Despite being short staffed, the service was great! Our food came out pretty quickly and our server always checked on us. We ordered truffle fries, buffalo wings, zucchini fries and a margherita pizza. Everything looked delicious and portions were big! We definitely had leftovers. My personal fave was the zucchini fries but all the food was really good! The zucchini fries were thickly sliced and the batter was crisp and both dipping sauces were good. The truffle fries were full of flavor, the wings were tasty (could've been a little more crispy in my opinion) and the margherita pizza was good. Everything was shareable and we still had leftovers (party of 3) Glad we decided to eat here!

    I am always on the lookout for a spot that has a large appetizer list and "refreshed" sounding cocktails & ingredients. The Hideout - kitchen + bar - on El Paseo in Palm Desert hit the mark. I've been eyeing this restaurant since they opened as they look the lease on a cute indoor/outdoor space that I used to frequent often when it was another restaurant. Today I found myself in downtown El Paseo, window shopping (saving my money for cocktails) and decided to finally give this spot a go. I love what they've done with the place, the decor and vibes were very relaxed yet classy. The menu here is the best part. I love any place that has a half of a page of their menu dedicated to appetizers. Even better when they all sound so good it's hard to choose. Lily was working today and I so appreciated her sweetness and willingness to give suggestions on the menu. She sold me on some amazing sounding bites so I went with a cocktail + an appetizer + a main (yolo). If there are fried zuchinni on a menu I am getting them! Their lightly batter tempura zuchinni sticks were addicting and I'll have to get them every time. Being a saucy girl I loved that they came with ranch and a chipotle aioli. Heavenly. Cocktails also lived up to my expectations. I had a beautiful pomegranate mojito which was super refreshing and well balanced, not too sweet, which was perfect for sipping on in this sunny-hot desert weather. If you find yourself on El Paseo shopping and want something reasonably priced but still good vibes, definitely check out The Hideout in Palm Desert.

    Lovely location nestled in an outdoor promenade / mall. The staff were kind and exceptional. The food was delicious (we had pizza). We literally ordered three pizzas for three people yummy and delicious! The drinks perfect! However, the chairs outside were a little tight (not big boy friendly).

    My wife and I had the chance to eat brunch here due to a guest suggestion from the hotel that we were were staying at for our Spring Break vacay. We were pleasantly greeted and immediately seated. Our waitress was nice. Provided drink suggestions when asked. My wife had a Strawberry Moscow mule and I had a basil margarita with muddled Strawberries and cucumbers (My request) and they accommodated!! Yummmmmmyyy both drinks. Our food was superb. Omggg...I do not normally eat all of my food in one sitting, especially a burger. However, I ate that whole 1/2 lb of short rib brisket and chuck blend gladly lol. It was delicious. Not to mention on a bed of butter lettuce and juicy tomatoes...ohhh.. that soft bun. I enjoyed my WHOLE meal. My wife had the chicken parmesan sandwich. She said it was okay. Oh well.. she should have got the burger lol. The fries were good as well. I gladly reccomend this spot. Ppl were ordering the pizza and poke nachos... all of that looked so tasty too. We will visit again when we return. Lol.

    Steak  Garlic Mash

    We went for valentine's day and had reservations so we were seated right away. the service was pretty good. the ambiance was nice. the drinks were good and since we ordered the valentine's day special we got a complimentary champagne and rose which was nice. the food was good even though it took quite some time to come out and for the valentine's day dinner special i guess it was suppose to be a surf & turf (which we were charged $149 for) but we only received the turf part which was the steak and the waiter gave us the surf part (the shrimp) to take home bc apparently they forgot to put that with our steak but they sure didn't forget to charge us for it but overall it was a good outing but do i think it was worth $213 not really.

    Pear and arugula pizza
    Sheryl L.

    The patio was really nice to,sit with mom and puppy. The service was good too for lunch. We loved the pizza crust. It was the best we had in a long time. We liked the Humboldt fog, pear, and arugula pizza topping but next time I will order pepperoni because it's always my Favorite way to have pizza. I really appreciate that you can get a half a salad and it was pretty good with fresh ingredients however, it seemed like something was just a tad off. Maybe it needed more anchovy flavor. We will definitely be back !

    Happy hour menu

    It was our first time stopping in here today. We often pass it on the way to Tommy Bahama. I had the Strawberry Mule. It was okay. Too much overpowering mint for my taste. My husband had the Raspberry drink that was tasty. He also had the Smashburger that had a very thick patty which was confusing. Not really a typical Smashburger. The Buffalo Shrimp were okay. I probably wouldn't order them again. The poke nachos were good. I'd definitely get those again. Service was attentive & friendly. Restaurant is nicely decorated but needs to be cleaner. Seats were full of food crumbs & droppings all over. As we were sat right across from the kitchen door, I also observed one of the cooks with gloves on talking on his cell phone. Did he change his gloves before handling food again? I'd probably bet money that he didn't. That needs to be addressed.

We had originally booked patio seating, but from the moment we walked in, the experience felt thoughtful and genuinely hospitable. We were warmly greeted by the owner, who immediately noticed we had a baby and proactively offered to relocate us to a more protected outdoor area while still preserving the al fresco experience. He set us up in the covered outdoor section to the right of the restaurant--best described as a beautifully styled canopy space rather than a typical patio. It was lush, cozy, and lavishly decorated with greenery, honestly a vibe all on its own. He even turned on the heaters to make sure our baby stayed warm. That level of care alone already set the tone for the night. Now let's talk about the food--because wow. This is classic French comfort done right. We started with the chicken liver pâté, which was easily one of the best I've had to date. Silky, rich, and deeply flavorful. This dish was especially nostalgic for me--my mom is a huge fan of pâté, and growing up we'd often eat it with bread as a snack or light meal. One bite instantly transported me back. Comfort food in the truest sense. For entrées, my wife ordered the Boeuf Bourguignon--tender, slow-braised beef that practically melted, swimming in a deeply savory, wine-forward sauce that felt both rustic and refined. I went with the Steak au Poivre, perfectly cooked and coated in a bold, peppery cream sauce that struck that ideal balance between richness and bite. Both dishes were executed beautifully--classic French flavors, no shortcuts, no gimmicks. Drinks were just as satisfying. I ordered a dirty Grey Goose martini with blue cheese olives, and let me tell you--it's surprisingly hard to find places that actually carry blue cheese olives. This one detail alone earned extra points in my book. The ambiance really tied everything together. French music played throughout both the indoor and outdoor spaces--some tracks were even recognizable, adding to the authenticity without feeling cliché. It felt transportive, warm, and relaxed. And bonus points for location: the restaurant sits right next to Handel's Homemade Ice Cream, making it dangerously easy (and highly recommended) to follow up dinner with dessert. All in all, French Rotisserie Cafe delivered on hospitality, atmosphere, and genuinely excellent French cuisine. Whether you're visiting Palm Desert for the first time or you're a local, this spot is absolutely worth a reservation.

Ordered the New York style hot pastrami on rye with coleslaw and a Dr. Brown's Cream Soda. The pastrami was the highlight. Piled high, tender, and full of that classic deli flavor with just the right amount of richness. The rye bread held everything together well and had a nice bite to it. It's the kind of sandwich you have to take a second to look at before figuring out how to eat it. The coleslaw was fresh and crisp, a good balance to the sandwich, and the cream soda was cold and refreshing. Also ordered a slice of pistachio cake to go. Absolutely delicious. The place has that old school deli feel, busy but in a good way, and full of character. Service was friendly and efficient even with the crowd. Definitely a spot worth stopping at if you're in Palm Desert and want a proper deli sandwich.

Totally to my wife's taste, extremely lean and stacked high. She had to take half home. I tried an omelette with corned beef and loved it. The everything bagel was perfectly acceptable, not too "bready." So: service good, pastrami good, and bagel good. Everything good about a deli is covered.
