"Solid Mexican food in Palm Springs is not always easy to come by, which is why you need to know about Felipe’s. Open daily from 10am-11pm, this family-run cafe is serving familiar Mexican classics better than anybody in town. The tiny spot is out by the airport, perfect for when you just want to sit quietly on a patio and not deal with the downtown crowds. The Hawaiian torta is a must." - brant cox

A really great Mexican restaurant with lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and fairly good specials for happy hour (at the bar only). It seems to be a popular place for locals, too. The service was very good and the food was excellent. I can highly recommend the fish tacos, for sure! They have specials on Taco Tuesday and Margarita Wednesday. Their menu has several good vegetarian options, and they will make many dishes on their menu listed with meat vegetarian for you, if you just ask. We especially enjoyed the Quesa Birrias. It gets busy every day at 5 PM, but usually you will only have to wait for a seat if you prefer to sit inside. We will definitely return here and recommend it to others.

My husband and I traveled from WI and were looking for a great Mexican restaurant after a long day of travel. Felipe's hit the spot. Felipe's exceeded our expectations, and our experience was amazingly beautiful! Max was very hospitable, kind, and did an amazing job explaining the history of the restaurant. He learned of our preferences of food and made the best recommendation - Molcajete and a side of guacamole. Thank you for an amazing experience! We hope to return before we depart.

Walked here from the airport since it was too early to check in. Seems like a lot of locals come here! Food was delicious and very filling. This is a great place for friends or family. There’s a lot of outdoor seating. The staff really made my experience, very friendly and happy people. They gave great recs (fish, corn cake). Free chips and salsa were delicious, they do give you more if you ask nicely :)

Stopped here before our flight out from Palm Springs. We got there around 12:30pm and it was about 108° outside. The inside was packed so we had to sit outside for a bit. The staff was so friendly and said a table was opening up and they'd bring us inside. Luckily, it only took a few minutes and we were inside. The whole experience here was great and mainly it was just the staff. Besides being friendly, they continually circled around checking in to make sure everything was okay. We probably had 4 different people help us out. As far as the food it was great. We had ceviche and steak chile relleno. Both were massive and more than enough for us, we also drank a mechalada and skinny margaritas. No complaints from us and again the staff was fantastic.

The food is very pretty! It has amazing presentation. But no flavor. To us. We love spice and flavor. The dishes we had were very subtle tasting. I had mole chicken enchiladas and the tortillas seemed old and hard. And the margaritas are icky. Lacking in alcohol and too much of annoying sweet taste. The salsa selections were uneven at best. We tried to expand our horizons, this was our 2nd visit with the El Patio/Felipe's (same owners and recipes) kitchens. And...they set us outside, which was ok but it is was cold. Oh, on freaking picnic benches for $20+ meals! And they don't have heaters. Get me drunk on good margaritas to help me forgive some of this, but no...they don't!

I probably shouldn't write this when disappointed in a Mexican restaurant with no Chile Rellenos. I ordered enchiladas instead, so hard for me to compare with other Palm Springs restaurants. First time here...very cute inside, with a large outdoor patio, which will be fun in summer.

The atmosphere at this establishment is exceptional, and the customer service is truly amazing. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who exuded humility and positivity. I highly recommend trying their delicious margarita tower. While enjoying the beautiful mountain views, you can savor authentic Mexican delights. Thank you, Jaime, for a wonderful experience.
