Are you in the mood for a touch of Europe on Palm Canyon Drive? Look no further than Pomme Frite. Nestled in the heart of downtown Palm Springs, its authentic European ambiance will transport you to a cafe in Brussels. Pomme Frite has attracted a serious following of food aficionados since it opened in 1999, thanks to its simplicity and by consistently serving superior cuisine with pride. This quaint and cozy bistro features Belgian specialties, moderately priced, including mouthwatering steamed black mussels and Flemish style beef stew (simmered in Belgian beer). A wide selection of Belgian beers (including Chimay), French and California wines are also available to whet your palette.
The aromas emanating from Pomme Frite"s kitchen are enchanting and mellow even the most severe food critics. The charming patio is perfect for street and people watching on Palm Canyon Drive, and the dreamy European music insures a relaxing and romantic dining experience.

    Another outstanding dinner at Pomme Frite! This is our go to place every time we’re in Palm Springs. We ordered a nice bottle of J Lohr Sauvignon Blanc wine. Started off with hot soup of the day with white bean, bacon and spinach. My wife had the Le Petite Salade. Both very good. I had the Duck a l'Orange. I’d been meaning to try this dish for sometime and it was outstanding. My wife had the Pacific Sole Fillets "Grenobloise". Both entrees so delicious. For dessert we ordered the Dessert Sampler. Great way to share bite of our favorites. Our waiter and busser were friendly, helpful advice, and always attentive. Until next time!

    We have gotten to be regulars at Pomme Frite because the service and food are great and the prices are quite reasonable for Palm Springs. I had the Fish and Frite for the first time (basically Belgian fish and chips) and it was mouthwateringly delicious. My partner had the Lamb Shank with couscous and ratatouille special and it was exquisite. It was a huge portion too; we had leftovers for another meal. The space is rather cosy, but that does not seem to be a problem.

    We made the reservation based on a Labor Day meal special that was sent to us via email. It stated that they had a three course pre fixe dinner special of an appetizer, entree and dessert for 35 dollars. We invited two of our friends as guests to celebrate a birthday. When we arrived and were seated our waiter reviewed the daily specials. When we inquired about the $35 dollar three course special the waiter informed us that they had decided not to do the special. We would not have chosen Pomme Fritte had we known that the special had been canceled. The dinners that we chose were excellent, as was our server. None the less we feel that we were deceived by the initial email offering. We have a choice of many fine dining restaurants in the valley and will make other dining choices in the future.

    We had the mussels and frites and the fish and frites. Both the mussels and the fish were outstanding. The mussels are exceptional and the broth is very well done. The disappointment is the frites. These are "coated" frites much like what you get at Burger King. We are "purists" and prefer the delicious taste of just potatoes done right! Crispy on the outside and tender in the middle. For those who have enjoyed frites in Belgium or France you'll know what I mean. They are superb with the crisp outside and tender inside. Sadly, these are not to that level. If you are a fan of Burger King fries, you will enjoy these...perhaps it's just a matter of taste!

    A special meal indeed for Belgian National Day. Perfect, cold vichyssoise for a starter; then for a "shrimp cocktail, including a hard-boiled egg and salad greens, with a delicious dressing. On to a very generous Vol au vent poulet served with frites and a very light flan for desert. A celebration indeed!

    My daughter and I had reservations at 5 PM which is when the restaurant opened. It was very hot in Palm Springs that evening. The owner notice that we were sitting on the bench right outside the front door. He let us in early to get out of the heat. This is a French/Belgian restaurant. It is fairly expensive However, the service was impeccable. Dinner was great and the desserts were wonderful. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    4 people: 2 orders beef stroganoff: the worst either of us have ever had. I sent mine back. The other order went uneaten. It was completely flavorless. No stroganoff sauce just small tough chunks of beef. 1 Order: short ribs....it was a lump of beef but definitely not short ribs with a taste like it had freezer burn. It went 90% uneaten. 1 order fish & frittes. The frittes were good. The fish was 10 % fish & 90% batter. After eating we went home & warmed up some food. We left hungry & very disappointed.We all felt we would not return. Also the room was very warm. Mini split set to 84 but waitress said it was not working.

    I can’t tell you anything about the menu because I have the same thing. Every time I go. My husband on the other hand is more adventurous, but I can tell you that the steak tartare and the mussels are out of this world. The service is wonderful and I always enjoy spending an evening there every week.

    Great service and a unique menu continue to ensure that Pomme Frite stays toward the top of local favorites, when it comes to fun dining, fun beers, and "fun fun." Service is friendly, seating is pleasant, and the menu sets this place apart from many of the other fine establishments in Palm Springs.
