It was delicious. There are 2 entrees to choose from so we ordered one of each. Salmon and Spaghetti w/ asparagus, heirloom tomatoes. For starters they served us Gazpacho, then the entree and a delicious dessert. Great value!!! The next morning we went for breakfast. They have the best eggs Benedict which I ordered.

- MMichaelVIPPalm Springs / Palm Desert Cities •29 reviews5.0Dined on Jun 1, 2025We have dined at Melange many times and enjoy the ambiance very much. I would likto see a broader dinner menu offering, but understand their limitations and the “late in season” occupancy challenge. Love the location and ambiance and Server was very kind to turn off their music to not compete with wedding band music across the way. We will continue to dine there. Especially convenient after Magic Theatre.More infoMélange Restaurant & Bar at the Chateau Lake La QuintaPrice: Moderate• American• La Quinta•4.3
