Exceptional(274)
Price: Moderate
• Wine Bar • Palm Desert
Bar seating and ledge-leaning is the rule of thumb—think Paris tabac or the zinc—the heat of local life, crowded with regulars at the counter waiting for their vin rouge. Here you’ll find our Cave à Manger, an eclectic curation of wines by the glass, paired with a menu of small plated savory delicacies created for this tasting smorgasbord. More than an amuse-bouche, less than a serving. Range, variety, exploration, and discovery are the point.Counter Reformation is located inside Parker Palm Springs, a Leading Hotels of the World property. Valet parking is complimentary when you dine. Reservations are recommended, but if you don’t see availability, just walk in for the next seat at the counter.Want to dive deeper into the wine list? Meet Bruce Barrett, our hotel sommelier—just ask for him.
