We love the Purple Room. We've gone the last two times that we've visited Palm Springs. The place has a great old school vibe. The entertainment has been incredible both times. The staff is super friendly and provides great service, the kitchen puts out very good food. We will be back!

The Purple Room is a great spot for drinks, food, and live entertainment. On this night the food was good but not great. The wedge salads were tasty enough but we waited some time to get the sausage/brisket meatballs and the Arancini which underwhelmed in size and temperature. Of course, the entertainment was outstanding and a good time was had by all.

We loved the Purple Room. It is a bit loud- but mainly b/c the lady singer had a bit of a cackle, the food was good. I loved the ambiance….unique. I’d definitely go again and I will!!

We went to the Wednesday, Rat Pack show with my elderly parents. Everything was excellent. All 3 singers were excellent. The music selections and variety was very good. I would recommend this show to anyone who appreciates the old 50s, and 60's nightclub songs.

We dined at the Purple Room during Palm Springs’ Dine Out for Life. They donated 50% of their proceeds to the Desert AIDS Project. The food was spectacular, the service was the perfect middle of attentive but not too attentive. The jazz that night was rockin and we had a blast. Very grateful for an outstanding evening and the club’s participation in the important fundraiser.

A truly wonderful evening. Four of us went on a Wednesday evening to celebrate my birthday. We were greeted and I was wished Happy Birthday as soon as we arrived. We were seated at a terrific table. The service was exceptional - Fabian was attentive throughout. Our meals and drinks were delicious and the show (Michael Holmes and Charles Herrera with piano, bass and drums) was fabulous!!! You just can’t beat The Purple Room!

If you're interested in a 50's dinner club vibe, the Purple Room is the place. Great service and good food in an intimate setting. The bar has a great selection of Bourbons, and a wide range of cocktails. Compact but well selected wine list. My wife and I love Tuesday nights for the 6:30-9pm jazz trio and Rose Mallett, who rips out the classics!

After “discovering” the Purple Room during my 18th visit to Palm Springs in 2022, I have literally flown back to Palm Springs twice since then just so I could go back to this incredible bar/supper club. The place is that fantastic. The live acts are incredible, the drinks are perfect & the food rocks. The staff is consistently friendly & this place is the birthplace of the Rat Pack act! So much history, such a fun vibe. I’ll be back this fall!
