Workshop Kitchen & Bar

"Farm-to-table food may seem like an impossibility in the middle of the desert, but nearby Coachella Valley is actually one of the nation’s most productive regions. Here you’ll find that bounty on full display. A dedicated garden in Rancho Mirage, along with a sizeable herb planter behind the kitchen, furnishes peak-season produce for wood-fired dishes like a flat iron au poivre, and even a simple yuzu tart is prettied up with farm-fresh raspberries and wood sorrel. The setting is a Spanish-style building from the 1920s, while the interior is a modernist temple of polished concrete—a mist-cooled courtyard provides additional seating. Special touches like house-made ginger beer distinguish an exemplary bar program, with cocktails both classic and creative." - Michelin Inspector

"If you’ve heard of one restaurant in Palm Springs, chances are it’s Workshop. This modern restaurant right in downtown is largely credited for bringing the whole farm-to-table (desert-to-table?) movement to PS. And even after all these years - and plenty of new competition - it’s still one of the best. Their large courtyard is open from 6-10pm during the week and until 11pm on the weekends, call (760) 459-3451 to make a reservation." - brant cox

"Even if you aren’t too familiar with Palm Springs, chances are you’ve still heard of Workshop. Open since 2012, this stunning, all-concrete restaurant on Palm Canyon not only proved farm-to-table menus were possible this far into the desert, but arguably put the entire city on the modern dining map. And today, it’s still hitting on all cylinders. With everything from goat cheese pierogis to duck fried rice to doro wat chicken, the menu covers a lot of ground. Make a reservation far in advance—the restaurant still books up quickly." - Brant Cox
