The diver scallops were absolutely amazing, the prime rib was phenomenal and the Ultimate martini was on point! Save room for the butter cake because is so delicious. Extremely impressed with the quality and taste of everything we ordered. The bar staff was attentive and our server was wonderful. Looking forward to coming back!
Thoroughly enjoyed everything about Arnie’s. One of our favorite spots
The food and service were very good.
This place never disappoints. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and the wine list. Great wine list also He was very pleasant and professional. Our food was exceptional we started with the bacon and dates and crab cakes.
Then has the Tomato and burrata cheese salad
Then had the sea bass. We shared dessert the pudding cake and ice cream okay yes we were full but it was great
The food was excellent, service was superb and overall experience was as good as our previous visit. We would certainly visit again.
Great food. Get a new bartender who makes drinks the way the customer specified rather than their way.
Arnold Palmers is our "go to" place when we have guests who aren't regulars in the desert. Food is consistently good comfort food--ribs, meat loaf, fish. Nothing fancy, just good. Not great, but never disappoints. If weather permits, definitely eat outside as the patio is great and entertainment is good, but not too loud. If you or your guests are golfers, there's plenty of memorabilia of the King's career. Fine dining? No. Consistently good food and service? Yes. Plus a good wine list, lively bar and, if you like desert, the coconut cream pie is awesome!
Had 5:30 reservation for the patio. Arrived at 5:25 and was seated immediately. Fantastic patio including live music. Waiter attended to us quickly and food was served promptly (after we had taken our time ordering)
and hot. A very nice way to send a couple of hours. The Butter Cake desert was a great way to finish a wonderful meal.
Unfortunately I had To return my meal twice. I ordered Prime rib medium was delivered well done both times. The wedge salad was tasty. Will try again soon.
Great cocktails and service
Enjoyable restaurant to bring a date as long as the loud noise level dining inside doesn't act like earplugs. Outside dining on the patio with a great guitarist is the way to go. I've dined on the patio many times and the ambiance is terrific especially if you like the Hawaii feeling. This particular time, the outdoor patio was closed due to a private party. One caveat: when I made my reservation through OpenTable, I specifically made my reservation for patio dining and was "told" in a response that the outside patio reservation was requested. Arnold Palmer's should have made it clear to OpenTable in advance that patio dining was not available that night instead of me disappointing my date.
We always go to Arnold's when in the desert and it never ever disappoints us. We made our reservation too late to get an outside table. So instead we ate in the main dining room and had fabulous service and food. I think I had the best salmon I have ever had! And the BLT wedge salad is perfect to split. Just go, you won't be disappointed. P.S. They also have a very nice sports bar and I know you can get white table cloth dining there too.
We've been going here for years and the four of us were disappointed in this visit. On the positive side, in addition to the lovely setting, the filets were good and well prepared, and the servers were attentive. However... neither the bartender nor the server knew what a champagne cocktail was, the pours on both cocktails and wine seemed smaller than usual, and the restaurant has changed the preparation of one of their signature dishes- beef stroganoff. Very disappointing for the pricetag!
The patio dining here is spectacular as is the food. This is a great place for a special occasion or a Wednesday night dinner. The food is exceptional. The cocktails are, too. The staff and service are incredible. Cannot say enough good things about this venue.
Have dined here many times. Never fails to impress. Highly recommend.
Always a special evening. Won’t return until next January but certainly will look forward to it.
The chef (Matt) is outstanding. He is creative and his presentation of food is outstanding
The servers were excellent as well. Overall, an outstanding experience!
One of La Quinta's gems. Great steaks and lively bar with live music. Patio seating is preferred to indoor seating weather permitting.
Outdoor dining at its best. Excellent memo, music and service.
Always a great experience. Great food,music and outdoor dining.
Wonderful dining on the outside patio. Great service and excellent cuisine. We highly recommend this establishment for a great dining experience.
We enjoyed the outside patio and the food and the guitarist was excellent - however the bar music was awful!! She wails off key so would improve that unless she was a cover band at 900 .
Nice atmosphere and service was fabulous. Very friendly staff.
Very good. Best outdoor setting.
Great food, atmosphere and a treasurechest of Arnie's memorabilia.
Outstanding on the outdoor patio
Food was delicious and service was excellent. We look forward to returning.
We were celebrating our 40th Anniversary. When I made the reservation, i mentioned this along with wanting outside seating. We were given a table by the fire pit- so romantic and just quiet enough. Our waiter was very attentive. My only issue which was a big one, is that my Halibut was overcooked to the point of dryness. I tried eating it because sending it back would mean that my husband would be done with his ribs (which he said was delicious) by the time I got a new meal. When I finally mentioned it to the waiter, he of course wanted to replace it and when I said no, the meal was taken off our bill and he also treated us to a dessert. This is one of our favorite restaurants and we will be sure to return - hopefully next year.
Had never eaten here before. Friends said to try your restaurant for dinner, so we did. Enjoyed our evening! Thanks.
We have been here many times over the years of spending the winter in the desert. This year is extra special. Our first time there since the remodeling was completed. The new Arnold Palmer Trophy Room is a must see for any golfer.
The outdoor dining is one of the best in the Coachella Valley.
The food never disappoints. The service was excellent. I would give the Arnold Palmer a solid five stars!
Good meal and service once again. We had the halibut and gnocchi with steamed asparagus side dish and butter cake for dessert. Very good. Also enjoyed the martinis. Will be back again.
At this time I cannot recommend the restaurant. We were a party of 6 and nothing went right. We ordered a bottle of wine. When it was done the waiter asked if we wanted another. We told him we would have it when dinner arrived. He never brought the wine and later said he wasn't sure we actually wanted it. Had he come back to the table to see how the food was he could have asked. Most of the dishes were luke warm at best but two were cold enough to send back. When they were brought out again one dish was only half an order. When asked, the waiter said the other half had been eaten so they only replaced half. This was not true. It too a long time to get the waiter to come to take the food. We repeatedly had to ask for water. The manager was at the next table but did not come to hours until the food had been replaced a second time. At that time he offered apologies and said dessert was on the house. No one wanted dessert as the experience had been ruined and we wanted to leave. Finally, the manager came over and said dinner was on him and he hoped we'd come back. Everyone has an off night but a restaurant of this caliber and expense needs to correct things sooner than they did. I would have to try this place again before I could recommend.
Food and service was exceptional. The highlight of our evening was a tour of the trophy room. Growing up watching Arnie, you can’t help getting choked up
Unbelievable dining experience!! Great food,wine and beautiful outdoor patio!! Would highly recommend to anyone! Great treat!
I have been going to Arnold Palmer’s for years. In this case the only open reservation was at 8:30. At that time of the night it didn’t take the rest of the dining room to empty out. In a few minutes we were the only table. Kitchen conversation started getting very loud, waitresses having conversation and was very slow to wait on us. We began to feel like their inconvenience. I will go back and try again and hope for the best.
Arnold Palmer's is one of the best restaurants in the Desert! We love the outdoor seating with gorgeous views and the live music; the indoor bar; the private wine room; the ambiance of the inside dining rooms; the food and of course the Arnold Palmer museum. The personal service provided by Dustin, the General Manager; the service provided from the valet to the wait staff; literally everything you could want in a dining experience! We love it!

Fantastic experience !!! Great food and wait staff .
My first ever review but I want people to know how good this place is. I gave this a 5 Star and if we would have chosen to eat outside it would have been higher. Believe me when I tell you go try this place. It’s amazing!!
The special Arnold Palmer museum was fantastic and a real treat.
Food was terrific. Service was very good. The special room with armie’s memorabilia was incredible. Lots of history in that one room. Highly recommended if you are in Palm Springs.
