The 25 Best Restaurants & Bars In Palm Springs

"“We’re lunching at the museum, darling.” There are only so many places where you can get away saying that, and Palm Springs is one of them. Run by the same chef as Bar Cecil, Livs is hidden within the subterranean courtyard of the Palm Springs Art Museum with a pool and art installations in the corner. It’s an impressive backdrop, but you’re here for the food, which is mostly midcentury classics done right. Think shrimp cocktail dusted with Old Bay, a curried chicken salad sandwich, and gooey tuna melts with spicy pepper jack. We recommend checking out the museum too, but you don’t need a ticket to eat at Livs." - brant cox
