Happened to walk by and checked out the menu. Decided to stop in. Front desk host told us we needed a reservation and they are not taking any at this time. Stepped outside and made a reservation via OpenTable for 3 minutes later! What the heck is that! That was a huge turn-off. The host could have just told us that was an option. We decided to try it out anyway. I am so glad we did! Our server, Cameron, was great! The food was amazing. Porterhouse and filet were made to perfection. The porter house may be the best we have eaten. The mac and cheese side was also flavorful and delicious. We had French onion soup, calamari and the Kaiser Grille salad as our apps. Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo on the kids menu was delicious. Lastly, the chicken breast dish was juicy and flavorful. Highly recommend Kaiser Grille!

Wanted a salad for lunch and just happened to be by Kaiser Grill. Gave it a try and was very satisfied. The Asian Chicken salad was very tasty, loaded with chicken and lots of veggies. It was very hearty for a salad. Companion had the chicken Cesar that they liked also. Bit pricy for salads though. Service was exceptional! Nice patio in the middle of downtown with good views and people watching.

The calamari and bacon wrapped date appetizers were excellent. For my main course the spinach risotto was also outstanding however my scallops were alight undercooked. Scallops are tricky but for the prices you certainly expect near perfection and while they were edible the middle simply needed more time, perhaps 15 to 30 seconds per side. My wife loved the braised short ribs. Falling apart tender and tasty. Cocktails were delicious. Worth a visit but also tons of options close to Kaiser so for me, the issue with the scallops makes a second visit here improbable but not impossible. Service was stellar and the atmosphere, cozy AND open, very nice.

This is a great spot. The food was really good I would recommend getting the porterhouse. The service was great. She really took care of us. I tried the old fashioned it was really good. Highly recommend trying the tiramisu that also was very good. People around us seemed really happy to be there also.

Okay, seriously, Kaiser Grille in Palm Springs? You have to go. The food was just incredible – like, every single bite. So relaxed and welcoming, a really great place to just chill and enjoy your meal and people watch .Honestly, the service was top-notch too. We even had the pleasure of meeting Michael, the manager, who was just fantastic. He really went out of his way to make sure we had a great time. Seriously, if you're in Palm Springs you gotta try this place out . You’ll thank me later . Kaiser Grille gets a huge thumbs up from me – definitely check it out!"

Our group ordered off their sunset menu this time. Entree price includes soup and salad choices. The pasta choices were excellent but I was disappointed in the pork ribs. They were dry and not what I expected. Meanwhile, the service was excellent. This is a place that fell off our radar for several years. We recently went back to try their wood fired pizzas. They are awesome. They have several options to choose from or you can select your own toppings if you want to customize yours. They are large enough for two people to share unless you are starving, then you might also want to split the beet salad. Today was our second time back and we tried the sandwiches. I had the Ruben and hubby had the tuna melt. Both were excellent. The Ruben had a ton of corned beef. If I ordered it again, I would ask for a side of the Russian or Thousand Island dressing. ( I like lots of dressing). This is also a fun restaurant to sit outside and watch the people pass by.

We stopped in at Kaiser Grille with high hopes, and while the presentation was fantastic, the food overall was just OK. The filet mignon, while nicely plated, felt overpriced for the quality, and the ribs were unfortunately dry and overcooked. Again, beautiful plating — but flavor and texture didn’t match the price tag. The charcuterie board was definitely the highlight. It’s generous on meats and beautifully arranged — definitely the move if you’re coming here. That said, it came with only three small chips/pieces of bread, which didn’t feel like enough to balance the board. More bread or crackers would’ve made it perfect. The ambiance leans toward upscale, but I wouldn’t call this fine dining — it’s more like Earls at twice the price. Still, touches like the manager or owner coming by the table to check in gave it a warm, old-school hospitality feel that I really appreciated. Overall: great location, strong presentation, and some standout elements (like the charcuterie), but not quite worth the price for the food quality. I’d return for a drink and charcuterie on the patio, but not for a full dinner.
