    A tourist trap. Nice location but the food was unacceptable. One of the worst restaurant meals ever.

    If you want an excellent meal accompanied by a spectacular view of the Coachella Valley, look no further than the Peaks Restaurant. I ate there with a friend, and he had the lamb, and I had the ribeye. They were both cooked to perfection. The staff was friendly and attentive, and it was all accompanied by that 5 star view. I highly recommend Peaks Restaurant for date night, a special occasion, or if you just want to have a great meal with a spectacular view.

    We were seated at the upper most level probably because we told them it was a special occasion. The upper level has the poorest view, so our family from Australia could really only see the ceiling of the restaurant.

    Jonathan was a great server and did his best to help accommodate the food allergies in our party. The spicy margarita I had was also delicious. Overall the food is average; one person in our party has a steak and another had the duck both proteins were over cooked. Great fries, and chicken tenders. The mushroom pasta was also yummy. We were sat on the lower tier of tables and the view was lovely. It did get obscured by people on the observation deck since it is as the same level. If possible, sitting higher up would probably have a more consistent view . Overall it was an average restaurant but not a good value price.

    The view is obstructed by people walking past the windows. The high price of the meals we purchased was not met with great quality. The Tram ride is wonderful. Eat at a restaurant in downtown Palm Springs.

    Unfortunately service was bad and so was the food. Ordered a spendy bottle of wine. Server didn’t know how to pour. Never came back to refill glasses entire meal. Food cold. No one cleared our plates and we had to move them to the edge of the table. Too bad
