Greater Palm Springs Restaurant Week Is Back – Here’s Why Locals (and Future Locals) Love It

Looking for a taste of life in the desert? There’s no better time than Greater Palm Springs Restaurant Week, running May 31 through June 9, 2025, to sample what our vibrant culinary scene has to offer.

Whether you're a longtime resident or considering making the desert your home, this event offers a delicious glimpse into the lifestyle that makes our region so special.

What Is Restaurant Week?

Restaurant Week is a 10-day celebration of food, flavor, and community—when more than 60 restaurants across the Coachella Valley roll out exclusive prix-fixe menus at set prices. Lunch menus are offered at $15, $25, or $35, while dinner options are available at $39, $49, or $59.

From casual cafés to upscale dining rooms, there’s something for every palate and price point. It’s the perfect excuse to explore new spots or revisit old favorites.

A Local Tradition That Highlights Desert Living

This annual event isn’t just about great food—it’s a reflection of the lifestyle that draws people to Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, La Quinta, and beyond. Dining al fresco on a balmy evening, surrounded by mountain views and desert breezes? That’s everyday life here.

And with summer around the corner, it’s also a great time to take advantage of fewer crowds and local perks.

A Win-Win for Foodies and Homebuyers

Thinking about relocating to the desert? Restaurant Week is the ideal time to explore the neighborhoods and communities you’ve been eyeing—with a reservation to match.

Many of the participating restaurants are located within walking distance or just a short drive from sought-after communities like:

  • El Paseo in Palm Desert

  • The River in Rancho Mirage

  • Old Town in La Quinta 

  • Downtown Palm Springs

These hot spots offer more than dining—they’re the heart of the social scene and give a real taste of what it’s like to live here year-round.

No Tickets, No Hassle—Just Great Food

No passes or tickets required. Just make your reservation and enjoy. Whether you're into fine dining, casual eats, or trying something new, Restaurant Week lets you experience the best of the desert without breaking the bank.
