The atmosphere and service were wonderful. However, the food did not live up to the expectations, and the pricing was outrageous especially for not being very pleased with the items we ordered

The service, led by Kelly who is one-of-a-kind wonderful, is terrific. Rachel our server was also great. The ambiance is the best in Palm Springs! We are still talking about the octopus appetizer and mushroom entre. This is our favorite restaurant in PS and we dine out nearly every night.

The food was excellent. So was the perfectly matched wine, recommended by our wonderful server Rachel. And it's a gorgeous spot to dine. When we're next in town SoPa will be at the top of our list to revisit.

My wife and I agree with another reviewer that this was a total wow experience. The enchanting amber-lit outdoor setting, the excellent service staff, and the outstanding food and drinks—everything about SO•PA was incredible. We think this is definitely a Michelin star worthy restaurant. SO•PA provided unique preparations that made each course delightfully inventive and super delicious. The menu changes from time to time, but I loved the rack of lamb - a generous serving with a wonderful mustard herb crust, accompanied by roasted squash, Merguez sausage, and a cherry infused au jus. My wife loved the salmon with a quinoa crust - cooked perfectly to a buttery melt in your mouth perfection and served with fennel, carrot mousse and grilled citrus. The seasonal blossom salad was complex, light and amazing. The dessert was a Basque herb-crusted cheesecake that was sublime. Also the wines we had were superb. For us this was five stars all the way. We will definitely return.
