"With locations in Calabasas, Beverly Hills, and Pacific Palisades, one could say that Porta Via knows how to run a successful restaurant. The Palm Desert location is a feast for the eyes with natural light and midcentury modern style. Porta Via’s cold bar includes shrimp cocktails, oysters, and caviar service, while a handful of appetizers like crab cakes and a tuna tower can easily make up a meal. Also available are plates of pasta, sandwiches, and a miso-glazed Chilean seabass." - Eater Staff, Mona Holmes
