    I checked the reviews before walking in and was surprised that "steaks and pasta" was even in the name of this place. Walking in all this place appeared to be is a bar. Only high tops and a bar area. Wouldn't dare to try the meats here, maybe pizza or fries. There were two bartenders working who were drinking and hanging out, seemed like fun guys. Pretty sure they were the ones who would make and run the food, because I didn't see any other staff. Drinks were on the pricier side. We had a cranberry vodka, gummy bear, 2 drafts and the check was almost $30. We played pool and hung around so we just made our own fun.

    I only go here for APA Pool league nights. They have 3 tables and the bartenders are all attentive and friendly.

    When I booked our hotel, I had no idea we were basically on the edge of civilization. It is not…read morereally near Palm Desert, Palm Springs, or much of anything. So when it came time to eat, I thought, well, this could be a challenge. Then I noticed La Quinta Brewing Co, and saw they had beer too. That changed things quickly. We walked over from our hotel and were pleasantly surprised to find a lively, bustling spot. Instead of waiting for a table, we grabbed seats at the bar near the kitchen, which turned out to be a great call. We ended up meeting Casey, a food runner, and he could not have been nicer. We had a great time eating, drinking, and just chatting. There was also a private event happening inside the brewing space, something with city engineers. Even so, everyone was welcoming and friendly, and they let me step in to snap a photo of the brewing tanks and the proudly displayed American flag. The food was good, the beer was solid, and the whole team made the place feel easy and inviting. Honestly, it felt like an oasis in the desert. La Quinta Brewing Co earns high marks from me. Five stars.

    This place is a great find. It randomly popped up on my social media feed, and I'm glad it did…read more From the moment we walked in, everyone was genuinely friendly -- the waitstaff and the bartender included. We ordered the fish and chips and onion rings, which they're clearly known for. The batter is the star here. Light, crispy, and flavorful. The fish and chips were excellent, but the onion rings? Next level. They use the same batter for the onion rings, and wow. We watched someone order two full bags to go, which seemed wild... until we got ours. We only ordered a half order and it was still massive. Even better, after sitting there for 30 minutes, the onion rings were still crunchy. That almost never happens. So good. We ended up staying longer to watch a football game and ordered the pretzel bites. These are fried, which gives them a great texture, and the cheese sauce has a nice little kick to it -- slightly spicy, in a good way. The space itself is bright, inviting, and fun. Great vibes, great service, and clearly a spot people like to hang out. We'll definitely be back to watch football games. Only downside: people smoke right in front of the building, so when the door opens, the smell drifts inside. Not a dealbreaker, but noticeable. Overall, really liked this place. Solid food, great people, and a fun atmosphere.

This place gives off local family owned diner (with a bar) vibes. (Hello? Cheers?) Pretty much every person who works here is family. Service is stellar. The menu has something delicious for everyone. Not to mention the day-of-the-week specials! Nice to know you can count on homemade spaghetti on Saturday! Soups are what your Mama would have liked to achieve! Family friendly. I think you'll find 19th Hole a place you'll enjoy on the regular!

The menu might be considered small however plenty of excellent choices for everyone's palate. We started with martinis Aviation gin for me & Ketel 1 for my hubs complete with bleu cheeses olives served tall & verrry cold. Our appetizer choice, the deep fried artichokes served with a creamy tasty aioli nicely presented however a bit over salted for our tastes, hence the 4.5 vs 5 stars. We came in to Italica wanting pasta the Bolognese with wild boar/fennel sausage arrived practically overflowing from the bowl, easily could have served 2 or possibly an appetizer to share at the table. My choice the Spaghetti Alio Olio presented bucatini pasta with bread crumbs & pecorino cheese ~ OOOOH MY, sooooo DELICIOUS my bowl was inhaled. Mid meal we ordered the prosciutto ~ fig jam flatbread just perfection the jam adding sweetness in every crunchy bite. To full from our appetizer & pasta we skipped dessert this trip but we'll be back!!!!!! as the drive to Indio from Palm Desert is maybe 30 min (+\~) easy & plentiful FREE PARKING be sure to look for the all stainless patchwork door for entry, once inside relax & enjoy the vibe.
