    The food was beautifully prepared, prices were reasonable, and wine by the glass was a generous pour.

    We are from Vermont but come every year for 18 years for Indian Wells tennis, and have eaten at Cafe de Beaux Arts for last 16. If that doesn’t tell you what we think of the restaurant there isn’t much else I could say to get you to understand

    We arrived 45 minutes early by accident on a Saturday night. It was busy. The maitre d was very gracious and asked us to kindly wait a few minutes while he worked us into his seating plan. 5 minutes later we were seated at a lovely window table. Really exceptional service and hospitality. The rest of the evening was lovely, food was good. Great job‼️‼️‼️‼️

    Menu had intrigued us as French 🇫🇷 cuisine is not always top of mind (Italian). Thought we would venture in and were glad we did. Great atmosphere, terrific service (Jose), and a fabulous meal full of flavour and aerved piping hot. We chose the Seafood Feuillete and were happy we did. The lobster sauce was heavenly. Great presentation on the plate. A wonderful evening out!
