    Excellent service. Very professional. Delicious and interesting cocktails. Fennel salad had a tad too much dressing IMO. Interesting menu. Gorgeous decor!!!! Definitely a beautiful setting-spectacular. This is our third visit to the restaurant. A bit pricey.

    This is our third time at the Pink Cabana and unfortunately we did not get good service this time. We were celebrating my mother in law’s birthday, I sent the restaurant a note about it when I made the reservation. Not only they did not mentioned it, I had to flag the waiter after a long time to ask for the dessert menu- on the day we went they had run out of desserts for us to purchase. We had to leave the restaurant and go somewhere else to get her a treat for her birthday. Service was not good and the fact that did not have any desserts is also disappointing. What restaurant runs out of dessert at 2pm?

    I felt that the service was ok but the food and cocktails took so long to come out and there was almost no one there. It was a very boring vibe. The music was super low and even tho inside it’s a bar, they allow kids and they were running around everywhere. The food was very mediocre but when we did get them, the cocktails were good. It’s a nice looking place but very boring

    This is the 2nd time I have been here in the last couple weeks and I don’t feel the service is worth the cost. Our waiter did not come back to see if we needed anything throughout the entire time until it was time to pay the bill. We could have used more water half way thru our lunch. The ambiance is so nice, and the food is ok. I just wish the service would have been better.

    Service was extremely slow. Waiter was friendly enough. My chicken was raw so I barely ate my 33$ plate because the aervice was so slow. Not a great value for the money. The valet attendant was extremely nice though

    This was a perfect breakfast spot to enjoy before the tennis at Indian Wells. My favorite go to breakfast is the Sands Breakfast (two eggs poached, potatoes and toast). All were prepared perfectly! Not your typical bland toast either. The decor is beautiful in the restaurant as well as the restroom (not to be missed!). We will be back.

    The service was very slow and I had to ask for my waiter twice. She forgot the salad I ordered so when our entrees arrived I told her to cancel. They brought more pita to the table and we were charged for it which was a joke! We loved this place last year when we went to it but this time was not great

    A big reason we booked at Pink Cabana was a desire for somewhere dressier or upscale that still played to the mid-century aesthetic so many people come to Palm Springs for. We had been recommended other restaurants with interesting menus, but their *stark* and *drab* interiors were a put-off for a special meal. Pink Cabana’s interior and the Sands’ grounds in general are just what we wanted. Food was all fantastic, the harissa chicken in particular being a favorite. Generous portions and nicely presented, would happily come again. Kitchen was backed up and slowed the evening down a bit, but our server was very communicative about what was happening and comped us a glass of champagne and dessert. Really added to the feeling of competence and quality about the whole operation.

    A beautiful restaurant in a lovely hotel. The ambiance is really unique and special! The drinks were amazing and delicious. The staff were polite and friendly. The food while attractive, was bland. The steak, chicken and lamb while cooked well had no flavor. Not worth the food prices at all. But worth going for drinks fir sure.

    Food was very good and service was great. We had a 5:45 reservation and it was very quiet when we first arrived. We were seated right away. We started with a couple cocktails and mocktails since one of our friends is pregnant. The ginger kicker mocktail is so refreshing with very strong ginger flavor. We stared with the young lettuce and oysters and both were great. I LOVED the young lettuce and would eat that every day for lunch. Then for entrees we had the steak frites, a chicken dish (I can’t remember the name) and the mushroom tagliatelle. Everything was delicious and cooked perfect. Dessert we had the chocolate pot de La crème, ice cream and key lime pie. Super good. Highly recommend this place for the food and ambiance. The decor is sooo cute!
