    We do not have one negative thing to say about our experience at Sullivan’s. This was our first time there. We were greeted by smiles and friendly hostesses. Our server was professional, personable and had good knowledge of the menu. Our food was delicious! From the crab cakes to the ribeye and crab legs, it was all very good. No room for dessert this time, but we will definitely be back next time we visit Palm Springs.

    The service was nice but took a bit to notice us after we were sat down and would get caught up chatting with the other patrons. The food came out very under cooked on the inside for both of us even though the exterior of the steaks were basically burned. We would have asked for new steaks but didn’t feel like waiting again for rushed/refired food that was burned. I sent my steak back and it came back l charred on the outside with little more cooking inside. My wife’s filet was severely undercooked for her liking, with the inside being close to rare and the outside was burned. We won’t be coming back the next time we stay in palm desert.

    We had the New York Strip and Sea Bass. Both were excellent, and the portions generous. Next time we need to remember that the sides are big enough for two! We will be back.

    Slow Easter Sunday brunch. Alcohol list isn’t posted in the drinks menu. The deviled eggs were a little stiff and under seasoned and egg on the steakhouse salad was overcooked. Steak was correct temp and the spinach side was cooked correctly. A little weird they don’t offer coffee service just espresso or brewed.

    My wife and I shared our nine year anniversary here and it was our first time eating at Sullivans steakhouse. She had the filet mignon. I had the salmon and we had brussels sprouts, mashed potatoes, and crab fried rice all of which were delicious. We had the banana bread pudding with ice cream for dessert which I’ve been thinking about the past 2 hours. Very nice way to end our evening we will definitely be back again! Thank you to the Palm Desert team

    Server was great but chef had the worst attitude. We ordered 1 medium filet and 1 medium tomahawk Filet was well done and tomahawk was RARE When we asked to be fixed he rolled his eyes and made a nasty face. Second round came and it was okay .. but there was still 5-8 pieces still very rare and ridiculous. I honestly would never recommend this place just based off the chefs attitude and inability to cook properly.. definitely needs training.

    The best part of the dinner was the bread and butter. They forgot our salads, so they were served after the entree. Steak was just ok.
