    An outstanding restaurant for dinner. I truly enjoyed the crab pasta and my wife and our friend enjoyed their scallop and salmon dishes. The meals are cooked to perfection. The pasta had a nice "bite" to it so you need to like spicy food to enjoy. Being from Texas we love spicy food. Our server Sophia was very professional, personable and attentive. For dessert, the carrot cake is a must. Well worth a visit.

    This is consistently a wonderful experience. I have come to Adobe Grill when visiting La Quinta/Indio for several years and have always had great meals, drinks, and most of all service. This time was just as good as always.

    Limited menu Monday - Wednesday, but the food that was available was very good. Service was good although it took a long time to get my cocktail. There was no bartender so the service staff had to make my drink.
