Reviews Summary

Eight4Nine is celebrated for its stunning ambiance and refined New American cuisine, with many guests praising the attentive service and unique decor. While the food quality and atmosphere are consistently lauded, a few diners have noted instances of inattentive service, particularly concerning special requests.

"We had an early reservation on Friday night. 3 of us sat down once we came in. the Bar area was pretty full and I didn't realized how big the restaurant is. They have a very large menu a nice cocktail list and wine list. Cocktails were rather large , nice pour on Martini's. Food wise we had the greens salad, Chicken pot pie, the vegetarian poblano stuffed pepper and the chicken Milanese. All were exceptional. Service was great as was the ambiance. we will defiantly be back"

Laurence Kedzie

"Beautiful restaurant with interesting black, pink and white decor. Food quality is superb. The hollandaise sauce is so rich and creamy. Pork belly hash is so flavorful with their dark sauce. Macchiato cream cake, delicious and not overly sweet sidecar cocktail and cappuccino or both very well done. Servers are super attentive and friendly."

Angelique

"This has a beautiful old elegance in the best way. It combines ambience with delicious food. We came in a whim and from a recommendation, there was not a dress code, but the service was great. From
the purse stands to wait staff placing your napkin in your lap, it was a great experience. The restaurant is very large with lots of seating inside, along with beautiful outdoor seating areas."

Restaurants in Palm Springs

No matter what time or day it is, this swanky restaurant in the Uptown Design District buzzes with pals toasting promotions and celebrating birthdays, couples on dates sharing beet carpaccio and oysters, singles mingling in the lounge, and tourists who were lured from the street by the jovial sounds and tantalizing smells wafting out of the polished white (with pops of Barbie pink) rooms and expansive patio. The look may be a little late-'90s, early-aughts Miami, but the menu is pure Pacific Coast with favorites like ahi tuna poke with house-made kimchi, steelhead niçoise salad, mesquite-smoked carne asada, and curried-cauliflower steak.

In addition to Workshop, there’s Eight4Nine, a sophisticated spot with a lovely patio and a wide array of culinary delights. Just three minutes’ walk away is my favorite coffeehouse in town, Ernest Coffee, where I have my usual espresso at a high wooden table under the mural of book-laden shelves, before my curiosity gets the better of me and I order the seasonal special, a fig/honey iced latte. Surprise: it’s amazing, rich, sweet, and refreshing.
