My fiancé and I love coming here. We did a walk in and we had such an amazing experience at the bar! The bartender David was attentive, fast, and always checking in to make sure everything was perfect. The drinks were absolutely delicious, service was quick, and his outgoing and funny personality made the whole experience even better. You can tell he truly cares about his customers. Highly recommend sitting at the bar!

The evening was absolutely perfect! We were warmly greeted and seated by the Manager who sprinkled some happy birthday confetti in learning of my birthday. Not much after being seated our server came over to introduce herself and provide us with the libations menu. Britni was an absolute delight . She was so very personable and such a hard worker. Though the presentation of the Lobster Thermidor (which is rarely found on a menu anymore) could have used a little more artistic touch, my Hong Kong style sea bass was very inviting! The taste of the food itself was delectable . We have visited Sullivan on occasion, but this by far was our ULTIMATE BEST EXPERIENCE!!!!! Thank you Britni for making it memorable

Had a wonderful dinner for our anniversary yesterday. This restaurant gives our date a nice ending at palm springs. We were thinking to eat at Eddie V's because I long for their crab cake so bad but something came up and my husband can only be in his shorts..lol and their dress code is very strict. We found this place nearby and offered crab cake so we want to give it a try. Great! They let us in but the crab cakes are a bit disappointing may be I expected too much. I understand that even if I eat it from that other restaurant, it may tastes different from last time too. But everything else we ordered here at Sullivan's is good. New York steak is delicious, their sea bass is the best sea bass I ever had. They also have some 'asian fusion' options on the menu that we ordered including the hongkong style sea bass (which they have some bakchoi underneath the seabass with thickened salted soy sauce) and shanghai Calamari flavored with sweet & sour pickled peppers. We should have tried their crab fried rice instead of crab cake because each restaurant has their own unique signature dishes. Anyways, back to LA now and I still miss that sea bass.

We stopped last week on Friday thinking we would catch happy hour, but sadly Friday is not one of their happy hour days (M-Th). But the good news is we enjoyed incredible hand made cocktails that David and Sebastian were crafting for us. I had the Manhattan while the wife had the Martini, both were so good we had to go in for seconds. The vibe there is the best, chill and relaxing with both David and Sebastian adding entertaining conversations while we enjoyed the mountain view. We're going back during their happy hour to get some great appetizers with our new friends at Sullivan's. Thank you David and Sebastian!

We came for happy hour. First time here, Amy & David took care of us at the bar, they were so friendly, it was such a great experience. Had the blue cheese chips (I’m not even the biggest fan of blue cheese but oh my gosh these were amazing), and the cheesesteak egg rolls were incredible. I started with a classic lemon drop Martini which was delicious but their knockout Martini is definitely one to try as well!! My boyfriend got their smoked old fashioned which was so crafty and he thoroughly enjoyed it as well. They let us know about their current daily specials which will definitely be bringing us back for dinner. Thank you so much Amy & David! We look forward to coming back.

Turns out it was exactly a year since we had been to SUllivan's and this time was just as good as the last. My cajun ribeye was great and I love that pork belly thing they bring and lift the top off to let all that smoke out. Delicious. Amy was our waitress and she couldn't have been nicer. Super fast and on the ball with everything--even though we kept her pretty busy. We always enjoy Sullivan's/

TERRIBLE experience. Like it was so bad all we could do was laugh. Had reservation but had to wait 15 minutes. Least expensive glass of red wine (and a mediocre red) was $35 (wth!) Took 45 minutes to receive a lemonade. Took an hour and 15 minutes to receive our meal. Three filets were ordered...1) hair on the plate 2) ordered MR, came out WD 3) ordered MW, came out extra WD. Like burnt and crispy. And after all of that, you'd think we'd receive an apology from a Mgr... nope. Save your money and go to Longhorns.

We had just come from the Palm Springs Tramway on a snow day and didn't feel like dining there, so we went looking for a steakhouse and found this one, even though it meant driving a bit farther. We arrived around 6 p.m. and the place was completely empty. I'll admit we weren't dressed very formally, but we were told to sit wherever we liked, so we chose a booth. It took quite a while for our server to come over, and we were already pretty hungry by then. When our waitress arrive, I asked about the three options on the menu, and she said she needed to grab a paper to explain them. I told her "never mind" because it sounded like it would mean waiting even longer. I would have expected that staff would have those three items memorized, but it wasn't a big deal since I was only asking out of curiosity and ended up not ordering them. The server gave us some time to decide what we wanted, but again it took a long time before she came back, even though I could see her chatting with coworkers. After about 15 minutes, she finally returned and I ordered a medium-rare New York strip steak and the crab fried rice. Our food took about 20 minutes to arrive, which was understandable. The dishes themselves were very good and I have no complaints about the quality of the food. About 15 minutes after we were served, our server came by to ask if she could clear our plates, but we weren't finished yet, so she left. We then spent more time finishing our meal, and once again it took quite a while for her to return to our table. Overall, the food was excellent, but the service did not meet my expectations. Our server didn't feel very attentive or accommodating, and I couldn't help wondering if it was because we weren't dressed up. Because of the service, I'm taking one star off.

Hungry? Is it lunchtime? Sullivan's is the best kept secret in the Coachella Valley This spot has stand alone dishes. Anything you order is guaranteed delicious. We ordered the calamari that was very light, savory and addictive till the last bite. Next up soup. French onion and lobster bisque. Both are a meal in it self and will not disappoint. I ordered the truffled ribeye sammy with fries. Wow show stopper. My spouse ordered the chicken jalapeño sammy with garlic mash. For dessert cheesecake garnished with strawberries . It was dense but light and airy at the same time. I'm not sure how that is accomplish but it was beautiful. Huge shout out to Ryan and Amy for making us feel so at home with the utmost respect and grace. Both showed sparkling hospitality. Thanks and see you soon :)

9:/20/25, Saturday night, my first visit to Sullivans Steakhouse. The food was average, the service was less than dazzling. Upon entering the establishment myself and a friend lingered at the maître'd desk for a time before being acknowledged by the staff. We were instructed to "pick a spot". We chose the bar area for dining as the main dining room seemed to be overcrowded, as one could interpret from reading the expressions, mannerisms and aside conversations of the staff as they hurried back and forth between the bar and the main dining area. There seemed to be some confusion as to which server was to attend to our table, but after a 15 minute wait we were able to get our order in and our beverages served. The appetizers came out immediately. "Wow!", I thought, good food and friendly service. It ended there. I mean courses took another 35 minutes before they were even brought out to the table. Mine was a salad. I have to say for a salad. It was OK average at best. I had some protein added to it, a choice cut of steak. It was cooked my liking, however, common sense would suggest that any kind of protein added to a salad could be sliced thin enough to not merit the need of a steak knife. My friend went with more of a traditional meal the main course with two sides. The sweet potato soufflé was cold. And the brussels sprouts were so al dente you'd think that they were raw. Wanting to wrap up the night, we ordered dessert to go, and I ventured off to find the restrooms. By this point, the bar area was empty of customers, and there were only a few members of the weight staff in that area. The main dining room, however, it was completely full. I made my way through the empty lobby and down a quiet hallway into the men's restroom. It was an empty and a mess, but what could you expect in a busy restaurant after 9:30 PM on a Saturday evening. I locked myself into the small bathroom stall. Suddenly, the door from the hallway burst open and a chorus of voices were yelling and laughing. The men's room was filled with chaos. And it was true chaos as I struggled to distinguish if the voices were male or female... "It's late on a Saturday night and there's a lot of booze going into that main dining room so who knows what could happen in a place like this? Thank God I am locked in this bathroom stall." I thought. I tried to shake it off, but the voices kept yelling, and I realized what they were saying. They were screaming anti-gay slurs. Hate speech. And I realized what I thought were women's voices were the voices of children. Young boys. I realize this win one of them grabbed a hold of my locked stall door and began to shake it rigorously. Was this an attempt to see if it was an occupied or an attempt to intimidate? You see their slurs were directed at me they were personalized. Not wasting a moment I screamed back, "It's busy!" The juveniles mumbled something back-and-forth to one another and barged out of the bathroom as quickly as they came in they weren't there to use the facility. They were there to harass an intimidate. I waited a few moments as I didn't need to have a confrontation. I quietly walked out of the hall. No one was there not even a member of the wait staff. As I moved back towards my table in the bar, I asked the first staff member I ran into if there were any children in the restaurant. They question one of their coworkers and the answer was yes. Then the restaurant manager appeared. The staff suggested that I speak with her. She asked if I had a concern about my service or experience that evening. I let her know that I had been verbally assaulted in the bathroom by an unknown group of children. Both the look on her face she was horrified. Now I realize the circumstances are very uncommon and unfortunate and management and staff had absolutely no idea this was happening nor could they do nothing to control this. After all behavior like this in children is taught at home. It's unfortunate that intolerance and hatred is something that we have to deal with in today's society. And it is unfortunate that business management can do nothing more than stand with their mouth agape when a patron files a complaint of assault. Yes,that manager acknowledged that she would address the issue. I doubt her word. We remained in the restaurant for another 30 minutes, and at no time did management return to our table to bother with my general wellbeing. I understand, there is not much that management could do. A word of caution, always be aware of your surroundings, no matter the circumstances, assault is assault no matter from whom it comes I filled in the information that Sullivan's requested and still haven't heard anything back.

Sullivan's was very disappointing. I should have trusted the reviews of others, but the friend I dined with insisted we try it. When we first arrived there was no one to greet us at the host desk. Three people came by and said someone will be right with you. Our server's name was Daniela. The first disappointment was that there was no beers on draft and she sat us at a wobbly table. We started with calamari and the shrimp egg rolls. Both were ok. The egg rolls were blah (better at Panda Express) and the calamari was too chewy. The lobster bisque was an unusual color for lobster bisque. It also tasted more like clam chowder; however, the iceberg wedge salad was good. I had a ribeye steak which was good, but could've been better. Their house steak sauce was terrible; they did carry A1, I just regret not asking for it instead. The mashed potatoes were too garlicky. My partner got the chicken. It wasn't terrible, but it could've been better too. It was drenched in a thick gravy like sauce. It reminded me of cream of mushroom soup. Daniela asked if we wanted take out boxes for what we didn't finish, but we said no; she just chuckled as if she knew the food wasn't good enough to take home (I'm playfully assuming. Daniela was great, it's not like she cooked the food or decided what to put on the menu.) We ordered cocktails. We first tried to order a Paloma, but they were out of the ingredients to make those. I got a spicy margarita. It wasn't that spicy or strong. It tasted like orange juice and they lit up a shot on top and brought out this flaming little drink. My friend got another cocktail they brought out in a little smoke filled box. Presentation is nice, but not at the cost of a good drink. I tried the key line pie for dessert. The color looked a bit off and was a yellow and not the green I've come to know key lime pies to be. This pie was so tart. I think they used too many lemons or limes. The atmosphere was nice, but a little dated looking as if it would've been really cool in the early to mid 2000s. The service wasn't bad, but the overall food qualify was just not there for a place of this caliber AND with the prices they charge.

I showed up on time. There was no host/hostess. I waited. Two different waiters asked me if I had been helped, I said "no, and I have a reservation." I waited some more. Then I left. I would have waited longer, but the same thing happened on NYE last year! On that occasion, we were greeted with "oh, we were just about to call you to say we are running an hour behind on reservations." HORRIBLE SERVICE!!

Came to Palm dessert for the weekend with some friends and they highly recommended Sullivan's. I've been craving a good steak dinner so we didn't even question it especially since the restaurant was partaking in restaurant week and I just love a good deal! We ordered: Ribeye steak with garlic mashes potatoes. Potato's were pretty good and fresh. Steak was a bit bland with lots of fatty parts I had to cut out. Wedges salad was ok not bad . It was cold and crispy so that's a plus. Lobster and shrimp bisque was liked by the table . We asked for more of the complimentary bread to dip into it. Broiled salmon came with sautéed spinach. Salmon was a bit dry. The skin was burnt . Hibiscus cosmopolitan was on point. I'd order that again. Service was extremely slow and it wasn't too busy for how slow it was.

4.5 Stars...First experience and had a very nice time. Sat in the bar area and experienced wonderful service, delicious food, and live music/dancing. Lots of parking in the mall's parking structure, as well as on the surrounding streets. Although we were walk-ins, reservations are recommended. Happy Hour in the bar, Mon. - Thur. from 3-6pm. SERVICE: We didn't have reservations, as we were only looking to hang out at the bar for cocktails and munchies, but it started rough with some major attitude from the hostess towards my wife and 91-year-old mother-in-law. Fortunately, we were able to find our own table in the bar area where Mac"Kenzie" waited on us, and her personality and efficiency were so wonderful, that we soon forgot about the run-in with the hostess. She saved our evening, and we'll certainly look for Kenzie again on our next visit. FOOD & DRINK: Once settled, we ordered a Blueberry Lemon Drop Martini, a Smoked Rosemary & Orange Old Fashioned, and a French 75. Later, we also tried a Banana Old Fashioned, and a Barrel Aged Vieux Carré. I thought the cocktails were well made, quite tasty, and reasonably priced ($15 for all martinis and craft cocktails). For food, we ordered a couple of appetizers to start: the Caviar Deviled Eggs ($35), Oysters Rockefeller 6ea. ($25), and a bowl of the Lobster & Shrimp Bisque ($12). We also tried the Spicy Shrimp Eggrolls ($19), George's Bay Seared Scallops entrée ($46), and the Lobster Au Gratin ($23). Finished off with a Coffee ($4) and a White Chocolate Almond Martini. Everything was prepared perfectly and delicious. One exception, we didn't think that the caviar added anything to the deviled eggs, other than the price. TIP: We purchased $100 worth of Sullivan's gift cards at Costco for $80, saving us some $$ for additional food and drinks. Overall, a great first visit...I'm sure we'll be back for many more.

Looking for something extra ordinary? Then you would love this place. Situated upstairs at the local shopping mall. My cousin insisted we try it after he had seen the pics of it on Yelp. And i must say it didnt disapoint. The iceberg wedge was so delicious. Lots of bacon and plenry of blue cheese dressing. Followed this with that great lobster bisqur soup. It was out of this galaxy . Never tastrd anything so good. My rib eye steak arrived just as i had hoped for. Medium rare and cooked to a perfect level of perfection. The waiter kept my water glass refilled many times, as it was a hot day and i was so thirsty. The brussel sprouts were soo good, and i dont even like brussel sprouts. I ended my meal with a slice of key lime pie. It was sweet and delicious. A meal truly fit for royalty. I am definitrly going back for more.

Only one other person in the restaurant and we waited 45 minutes for our food. Asked waitress why it's taking so long she said "I'm not the cook- what do you want from me?" Food finally arrived. Husband's filet mignon was overcooked- hard-burnt--he couldn't cut it. The meat on my sandwich was cold and black. It was so bad- I had to spit it out. The manager came over and after hearing about our food, she said "I'll tell the cook". My husband said never mind-- just give me a bill for what I ate (he had a wedge and I had a club soda). She presented a bill for $24,98. My husband put down $25.00 in cash. All through this experience, the staff was very rude and nasty. This was the worst restaurant experience in our entire lives! Gave it one star-- one star too many.

We came on Valentine's Day 2025 right when they opened. We didn't have a reservation so we were sat in the bar area. The bar area was filling up as it seems no one had a reservation. It was strangely odd that for the next 40min, no one came in with an actual reservation...seems we could have been sat in the dining room. This was our first time here and I have to say the food was overall very good. The service was exceedingly slow despite multiple staff walking about, chatting at the bar etc. Our server was trying hard, but the only one dedicated to the bar area. They have a delicious, creative crabcake. The hibiscus cosmo? Yes please. My filet mignon was absolutely delicious and the goat cheese butter is a must have that you can't get at another steakhouse. The mashed potatoes were silky and the garlic spinach ok. The bordelaise was tasty. My husband's rib eye was overcooked but he muscled through it. We also ordered the mac and cheese but that was a pass. It was bland, below average and barely had any lobster. Nonetheless, this place is an overall win, with classic steakhouse food elevated to include some of the most popular trends of the past decade. Pro tip: The service may be off if you sit in the bar area. If you want the traditional 4-course dinner, make a reservation. While we were not here for happy hour, the menu looks amazing. We are game planning our way back to the desert for this spot.

If you go in expecting $74.99 for a $100 at Costco... you won't be too pissed. I woulda been heated if I had to pay full price... the roll we got for sure had yesterdays rice on it. The tuna sashimi was actually solid. We got a porterhouse and it was super overcooked. The staff was super nice so we took care of the waitress but Hard pass going forward

Food service, had to ask more than once for house radish. and food preparation. The Brussel sprouts were over salted, couldn't eat them. Steak was ordered medium rare plus... was cold to the touch inside. Sent back and I think they used an open flame to char it. Very sad. The baked potato was old and yellowish inside, should have sent the whole meal back and gone to Outback! The bartender was the only professional with experience in customer service.

Let me begin by dispelling some misconceptions: When you go to a steak house, don't review unless you order a steak. Don't order a 6 oz steak and complain about the temperature it's served. Venting complete. This is a perfectly good steak house. 8 oz Filet was a perfect temperature and cut. Seared outside, pink and soft inside. No Gristle. Server was great. However, they had a big member event going on and that was consuming some time. Decor was nice, a bit dated for me but clearly popular with the Palm Desert crowd

Kenneth W.

Yelp
Over the past 70 years I've eaten at many of the World's famous steakhouses. This was my first time at Sullivan's and it was the WORSE steakhouse experience ever. The very expensive Porterhouse I ordered smelled bad/rancid at presentation (the smell of spoiling meat). This was confirmed by my son and the waiter who generously offered to replace it with a Cowboy cut. Unfortunately, the Cowboy cut was so fatty that when the night manager who came by to apologize about the Porterhouse saw how much of the remains on my plate was fat, offered to comp me for the steak. She was very apologetic and friendly. The manager and serving staff I rate a 5, BUT the chef/cook who served me the Bad steaks I rate a "0" for having the audacity to send those steaks out to customers.

Hale K.

Yelp
Starti with the good: the server was excellent. The bread was delicious, and my martini was perfection. But the bad is bad - Oysters were foul, the wedge salad was slopped together, the medium rare steak came out raw and was sent back twice. The lobster mash was disgusting. An expensive meal that tasted terrible.

Tess C.

Yelp
Average at best! It was our first visit and if it was not for a gift card it would probably be our last. The food is nothing special. The salmon was cooked well and served with slimy spinach. The steak while tender was basically tasteless. The french fries were the best part of the meal. The service was friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was quite nice with nice mountain views out the large windows. If you crave a good steak, go to Morton's steakhouse and skip this place.

Review: Happy Hour Drinks Only When we are in the desert, we always feel a bit thirsty! Perhaps the heat.....to beat the heat and quench our thirst buds, we tend to find ourselves at happy hour. And in Palm Springs there are so many places to enjoy! As we have not experience the happy hour at Sullivan's Steakhouse in Palm Desert we decided to pop in for some refreshments. This establishment is located on the 2nd floor, opposite side of Tommy Bahamas. They have great parking lot behind the shopping mall that offers both outside and covered parking in the garage. There is also street parking in the area. Happy hour can get very busy in Palm Springs. Especially in the winter time, as it was summertime, we thought happy hour would be less crowded. Just in case, we popped in when happy hour started at 3pm. Happy Hour is from 3-6pm. When we dropped in at 3pm, we were the first individuals at the bar- the bar provides seating at the bar, high tops, high tops booths and tables. Something for everyone! What makes this happy hour special- is that practically all of their specialty martinis are on happy hour and only ten dollars- how dangerous. Plus there are other drinks- such as wine and beer. Appetizers are also discounted. We just opted for drinks! The drinks were all well prepared! The bartenders were very attentive! In the summertime, we noticed, that people strolled in about 4pm, and by 5pm the bar was becoming quite busy but not very rowdy- must be the crowd! Perhaps different in the wintertime.

Just left the restaurant. Service was horrible ! Food came out quick. But both the wife and I agreed, the food was too expensive, and HORRIBLE ! The Shrimp egg rolls, were O.K....Could NOT taste the shrimp, IF there was any in there... The Beef Wellington tasted like, and had the texture of, Packaged Swedish meatballs wrapped in dough... Both of us spit it out... Yeck .. The only real edible thing was the shrimp cocktail..(4 shrimp for $25.00), Kind of hard to screw that up, so we ate it . When we finished, it took almost 30 minutes to get our bill, so we could pay and leave...To add to the problem, the sliding glass doors were open to the patio, and everyone had jackets on, because we were all freezing.. We couldn't wait to get out of there..But we couldn't get our bill ! $70.00 for bar appetizers that we couldn't eat, while freezing to death, trying to get our bill, so we could leave. NEVER AGAIN !

Raul our server was friendly and patient. Calamari seemed to be a large portion so beware! Very tasty though. The tomahawk and the steak were cooked to perfection. Brussels side was more like a salad than air fried like I was expecting. Desserts were delicious as well. Oh and take the bread home!

Mediocre service but when they realized they messed up they offered a gratuitous glass of wine z. Not a full dessert menu & the cheesecake was just fair.

Our family of 9 went to Sullivan's Steakhouse for the Thanksgiving meal. Only 4 out of the 9 ordered the Thanksgiving meal, which was good. The rest of the party ordered various different steaks, as well as side dishes. They all thought the steaks, side dishes and appetizers were exceptional. We had a reservation and were seated within minutes of the reservation time. Even though it was a holiday, the service was great. I definitely want to go back to try their regular menu, however, I am not sure I would go back again for the Thanksgiving meal.

Came for lunch for our first time. They have amazing lunch specials. We tried the business person lunch with the Delmonico Steak. Everything was delicious. The chef came and checked on us. But the real star of the show was our waiter Derek. He was awesome. I highly recommend coming here for the food. If you happen to get Derek well you got double prizes because he's fantastic.

This year we decided to visit Sullivan's for XMAS Eve. It isn't far from our residence and I thought we deserved it as 2024 has been tough. We set a reservation WAY in advance, thinking 6PM would be okay. I guess everyone else in the Coachella Valley had the same idea because their restaurant was PACKED. When we arrived, we were greeted and seated with a minimal wait. NICE! After reviewing the menu, we ordered three starters that were all delicious and devoured along with two baskets of bread. Yes, we came hungry. At the same time, we asked for a Tomahawk for two/a Lobster Mac & Cheese and a Filet Mignon. We added Brussel Sprouts to get some GREENS in. This is where it got dicey. The additional time of 90 minutes passed before we received our main courses. During that wait, where I grew in a full beard, we were witnessing multiple orders of French Fries levitating passed our table. Think of Snuffles and his dog biscuits. The younger readers have no clue what I am writing while shaking their heads, saying huh? (Quick Draw McGraw) At the beginning of that wait, we asked if we could get an order of those garlicy treats. Our server said they were all out, yet the French Fry Mirage continued with Comparsa music in the background. (Pom-Pom-Pom-Pom-Pom-PAH!) Hey, I am Cuban and I do have a flair for dramatics. At this point, things are getting testy at the table and I am staying positive for the sake of saving the evening. My wife asked our server about the fries AGAIN, pointing out that we had seen them going out. (We were right next to the kitchen) Our server came back stating that they would be right out. That basket of fries disappeared as if human Piranha's had attacked. (I didn't have any, pat on the back) When the mains finally arrived, the girls were frustrated past their limit. My daughter LOVES Filet, so she did somewhat come back to life. The Tomahawk was for my wife and I and we cut/forked & chewed that sucker down to the bone. My son was eager to dip into his Mac & Cheese but he wasn't impressed. The Brussel Sprouts came chopped, like a fine salad. It was tasty and different. All in all, we came away thinking that we could return on an XMAS Eve but only at opening. It was also discussed that a plethora of starters would be the way to go in the future. There are so many flavors to try and enjoy, while also saving some Benjamins. The restaurant was clean and the service was good. (EXCEPT FOR THE FRIES DEBACLE) We will be back. Hey, I forgot to give them my phone number for the points...

When you arrive and walk in your expecting an amazing meal with great service. But that's not what you get here. Our waitress, Melody, was fantastic, attentive, friendly and made us feel welcomed throughout our meal. Ordered oysters, not overwhelming but not bad. No sauce choices only provided horseradish and cocktail sauce. We ordered the caviar deviled eggs. Very good. However, the main highlight of the meal, the tomahawk steak, fell short. We ordered medium, but it arrived rare. Melody promptly addressed our concern and took the steak back to the kitchen. Unfortunately, instead of cooking a fresh steak, the kitchen rebooked the already cut pieces. Which is not what we expected from a steakhouse of this caliber. Luckily the drinks we got made the night for us.

The Dynamite roll was pre-made and hard , not fresh . Awful. The wedge salad had sooooo much blue cheese we couldn't eat it . Then the steak , ugh .... We ordered the bone in Ribeye ( $79) MEDIUM . It came seared raw ! Bright red ! So we sent it back and then it was brought back and it's still moo'ing ! Such a bummer , it was our anniversary also .

We came here for happy hour they have a good happy hour menu. We ordered the spicy cauliflower which was delicious- lightly fried with the right amount of spices. And the spicy shrimp. They have a whole page of specialty cocktails that are $5 off during happy hour too. Located off of El Paseo. A very nice choice for happy hour..

Service was extremely slow, although our waiter was very nice and apologetic. And we were compensated for the weight with an appetizer. The food was expensive. And not that great. They forgot. Have our order and got the drinks wrong. Although, the main course was served together for a party of four people. Soup and salad was 20 minutes apart.

I came here with a small group and we got some drinks, oysters, beef wellington bites, mashed potato and some steaks. The beef wellington bites were definitely unique and I really enjoyed them. As for the steaks, we all got ribeyes medium rare; however, one of the people at the table got a steak closer to well. The inconsistency was odd and we politely asked the server to get a medium rare steak. Another replacement steak came out, but it was too rare this time. The rest of us were already eating our steaks so that person just accepted it as they were hungry and didn't want to keep sending it back. That was a bit disappointing and killed the vibe a bit. The garlic mashed potatoes were also very dry and not that flavorful. I have had better at other steakhouses. Overall, average experience and I would probably choose another steakhouse that knows how to cook steaks and keep it consistent better in the future.

First time last night for our 14th wedding anniversary! It was so nice! When the walked us to our table, there was a card & rose petals The waitress, Jackie was super sweet & friendly; The food was great! I ordered a tableside BLT salad w/ Arugula & this amazing sweet basil vinaigrette, (my only regret I didn't take a picture of it) she tossed it up in front of us; also ordered Crab stuffed Shrimp, so yummy! My husband ordered the Steakhouse salad! Not only was it beautiful but delish! He ordered a side white cheddar & bacon au gratin potatoes which were ok; we could've done w/out those.. I liked the set-up reminded me of a classic but old school steakhouse style; Yes we would definitely go back

My fiance had his bachelor weekend in Palm Springs and chose this place for dinner. I wanted to surprise him with a dessert and I let the staff know ahead of time. They really went out of their way to surprise him, let him pick a dessert and even wrote congratulations on the plate. Service was great and food was good! So thankful to them for making his experience a good one!

My wife been going here since she was a kid. We finally were able to have a weekend to get there and WOW - did not disappoint. Her and our son ordered the filet and I got the porter, all were cooked perfectly. The Brussels sprouts were unlike any I've ever had. Great alcohol and wine selection as well. Definitely making it our new palm desert spot when we're out there.

Nostalgic is the word to describe Sullivans. We came here the first time twenty years ago, and it's our go-to when visiting the desert. They have a great bar and make a proper martini, and we arrived early to enjoy one. On this trip, we took my in-laws on their maiden Sullivan voyage, which was great. We shared the calamari as an app., which is perfect to share. Christy and I split the 8 oz filet with garlic shrimp side and epic baked potatoes. ( maybe a world record for its size ) The steak was cooked perfectly and Jackie detailed the temp so we knew what we were getting. "Medium rare is not the same everywhere." We finished the night with a Key lime pie and voila. Easy to find and plentiful parking, you'll not be disappointed.

I took my parents here for their anniversary. There was only two other tables being served. It took three hours to get through lunch. The waiters were no where to be found. Restaurant felt cold and abandoned. When the food finally arrived it was only satisfactory. After completing lunch it took 35 minutes to get check. I would never recommend or return to this establishment.

We went on a Saturday night and sat at a table in the bar area. Our waitress Angelina was great, attentive, great service. The banana old fashioned was great and our steak l, lobster tails along with our appetizers was very delicious. Live band on Saturday made it extra special.

Order my drink, appetizers and meal.... As i was drinking my drink, there was a fly in my drink, Jeff the manager didn't apologize, and asked what do you want me to do?, A new drink? If you have flies in my drink, do you also in the food? After i complained he canceled my dinner and Apps as it was my fault. And sent me on my way. after i Ordered 400 worth of food! Horrible never again.

Hit up Sullivan's happy hour last night for my birthday, which I've done before. I enjoy the casual experience eating in the bar rather than going to a "special occasion" restaurant. The food and service are always stellar and you've just got to try the "Banana Old Fashioned"...outta this world. I had the CRAB CAKE SLIDERS for the first time and they were great but forgot to take a pic...sorry My wife had the SHAVED PRIME STEAK SLIDERS. The steak was perfectly cooked, shaved thin and had a deliciously rich beefy flavor...Yum!

There was a little confusion on the seating for our reservation but that was filled by the quality of the experience! We started at the bar where we tried the banana old fashioned and the espresso martini. Aurora was so helpful and friendly. She mixed the best drinks for us! Soon after we found our party. For dinner, the filet mignon was so tender. I ordered the crab stuffed shrimp as well to compliment the steak. All the sides were ordered were delicious and came out hot.

Stopped by for Valentine's Day. The ambiance was perfect for such an event with music playing all around. The food could have been better though. We both order steaks which came out under cooked. I didn't mind mine so much but my wife can't and won't eat a medium raw steak. So they took hers back to cook some more which meant I had to wait for her plate to return so I could eat (I wasn't going to eat while she sat plateless). As a result my undercooked steak was cold when I began to eat. We didn't complain but the manager did stop by to apologize for the mistake which was very nice and unexpected. She and our server were the reason the rating was 5 stars. They were both great. The drinks were ok with the martini being better than the old fashions. The best dish for me was the shrimp and lobster bisque. That was delicious and worth getting anytime you're there. This place was very busy due to Valentine's Day which I'm sure led to the steak being undercooked. We will give it another shot some time in the future.

The hostess tried to stick us in an overflow room enough though the restaurant was 3/4 empty so I asked her to m is us into the main dining room. She said we don't have room to move you and I said the main dining room is almost empty so she made us wait and then moved us. By the way 2 hours later the main dining room was maybe half full! The server was sold but the food was less than average! The steaks were cold and flavorless and the sides were either overcooked or mushy! How do you ruin a baked potato l, they did by burning it. The worst Brussel Sprouts I have ever had that were totally mushy! The only good and prepared food was the bread and butter which was actually great! This fine dining steakhouse was so BAD that you should never ever eat there unless you don't want a great steak experience!

A group of us went to Sullivan on Thursday and had the best waiter person named Sky. She was so professional and delivered our drinks and food with such a good attitude. She didn't rush us and was able to give us all separate checks with no problem. Thank you Sky for making our night more enjoyable

Servers were not attentive, not very friendly, food did not taste fresh. We had to pile up our dirty plates which had been sitting for a while to make room for the entrees. Overall just wouldn't recommend this place if anyone asked me for a steak house rec in palms.

Our visit to Sullivan's Steakhouse was disappointing from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, the hostess made us feel unwelcome--no smile, no warmth, just a cold, dismissive attitude that set the tone for the rest of the night. I ordered a wedge salad, which came out completely smothered in dressing--clearly to cover up the fact that half the lettuce was brown, wilted, and dead. It was honestly inedible. My son ordered a filet, but they brought him the wrong steak. They apologized and said they'd make it right, but when the filet came out, it was so undercooked it was raw in the middle. Not rare--raw and uneditable. And just when we thought the experience couldn't get any worse--the chef came storming out of the kitchen, visibly angry, and yelled at the staff and customers, saying: "I can't take this anymore! I'm leaving. I'm tired of this SH#%t." It was uncomfortable, chaotic, and completely unprofessional. For a restaurant that positions itself as a steakhouse, the food was poor and the service was worse. We won't be back--and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Let me know if you want a milder or more intense tone--I've got versions for both.

Skip this and place. The food is not good, over priced for the quality, and is mids at best. My ribeye steak was way over salted, quality of meat was lacking, the caviar was either old or low quality, and management seemed to be prejudiced. The steak had, what I assumed was kala namak salt, but was incredibly over salted. The cut was about 1/2-3/4 of an inch thick but the amount of salt was for a cut at least double that thickness. I had to scrap it off. The deviled eggs with caviar was a complete waste of $38-the caviar was either old or they lied about it being osettra. The bread they served was exceptionally poorly made. They didn't let the gluten develop so it was dense and stodgy. If I'm paying hundreds of dollars for a meal I expect better. The baked potato was so over baked that I couldn't cut through it with the steak knife. The only thing that saved this place from getting a 1 star review was the server. He was fantastic and kept me from walking out in disgust with his pleasant demeanor. To be honest, I would have had a better time at sizzler, at least I know I'm getting crap.
