Arnold Palmer's Restaurant features Progressive American cuisine, including fresh seafood, steaks, and some of Arnie's great comfort foods. This one-of-a-kind restaurant features an impressive wine room that houses 2,500 bottles of wine and an exclusive Chef’s Table for special events. A variety of live entertainment in the evening in Arnie’s Pub sets the atmosphere for guests to enjoy a unique dining experience. The extensive newly remodled patio offers stunning views of the Santa Rosa Mountains, a cozy outdoor fire pit for guests to gather and a putting green where visitors can work on their game.
"A must dining spot when in La Quinta. Menu is very diverse. Excellent wine list. Sunday fried chicken special and Arnie's meat loaf are good selections for those wanting just a solid traditional meal. Other options are also top shelf."

"We had been to Arnie's before on a Friday during high season- not one of our better dining experiences. Very noisy and the servicers were slammed,but my husband has had some wonderful scallops so we decided to give it another try. I'm so glad we did! This time we were there on a Thursday around 5:00 and it's towards the end of tourist season. Much different experience! John, our waiter was very friendly and attentive. The food was excellent and the view is beautiful. Ask for outside seating if the weather is pleasant. You do get some road noise since it's on a busy street, but that will soon fade into the background. Enjoy-"

"Fabulous, our best meal of the desert. Took two kids (11 and 9) who were treated perfectly. we didn't expect a children's menu and planned on them ordering an adult portion which was fine. Others had their chilldren eat sides of pasta which is a shame. We assume families are not their prime focus but are still made welcome. Great experience, lovely interior and kids enjoyed the putting green. When we are next in the area we will be sure to visit."

"We enjoyed our dinner at Arnold Palmer's restaurant. I did put on my reservation that we preferred outdoor seating, but when the restaurant called to confirm my reservation, I was told we were going to be seated inside. When we arrived, they did seat us outside near the door. It was a busy spot where several very young "unsupervised" kids congregated and were arguing about the mini golf. I thought we were going to get hit with one of their clubs as they were swinging them around... ?
There were several open tables outside, so I'm not quite sure how they decide who is seated where on the patio.
Overall, the food was good, the waiter was attentive and it was an enjoyable evening"

"Always enjoy a night at Arnold Palmer's. I have gone with couples, girlfriends and taken my whole family. My kids even will go back to this "fancy" restaurant. I will say the first time I went with the kids I didn't know about ordering for them off the bar menu, when I went again with another family we were able to do that which made a huge difference."

"everything was fine we have been there many times before food is good; portions good wait staff attentive we wanted to eat outside - no availability when you are in a warm climate and come from the midwest in the winter, you only want to sit outside. Arnies is a nice restaurant sitting inside. It is fabulous sitting outside."

"We were in the room with the rounded brick ceiling which was elegantly masculine and comfortable when we first arrived. Unfortunately, there was a lady who arrived shortly thereafter who was SO loud that her voice dominated the room. I'm not sure if it was just her voice or if the accoustics contributed."

"This was our third trip here but our first on a week end during the high season and we won't do that again! VERY loud. The music was supposed to be in the bar, but even in the back dining room with the doors closed it was bothersome. We also ended up seated right by the door, well actually right behind the door so we were overlooked by staff. Finally had to stop one of the servers and ask for our bread. My husbands scallops were perfectly prepared so the food was up to their usual standard,but the noise and our table were so disturbing that we didn't even stay for our desert or drinks."

"Arnold Palmer's has a special "fried chicken dinner" on Sunday nights that we opted to try. The food and service were outstanding - so much so that we booked another reservation for the following Friday night. This time we ate outside, which was very pleasant, and we ordered from the "normal" menu. Again, the food and service were superlative. I can heartily recommend this restaurant, which seems to provide excellent dining for small or large groups and families. Finally and appropriately, Arnold Palmer's has a small putting green that kids and grown-ups can take advantage of."

"The memorabilia and decor was excellent. Wish I would have asked for an outdoor dining table! Lobster bisque was average at best but the bacon wrapped dates skewers were awesome. Meatloaf was recommended and very good, moist and flavorful as was the chicken dish. The chopped salad with blue cheese dressing was also excellent - lots of big pieces of crispy bacon - yum! The brownie souffle with ice cream and tiramsu were both excellent. Unfortunately the service was slow and had to be sought out several times. Good entertainment in the bar/lounge"

"Nothing is more glorious than al fresco dinning on a warm desert night... and Palmer's patio is the best!! Thank you VERY MUCH for having corned beef on the menu for St. Patty's! We also enjoyed your guitar/piano player immensely. Our only critique really would be better music outside, or maybe the guitar/piano player's music outside??! (The 40's tunes outside are just too dated and I don't think the crowd at Palmer's is THAT old?:)"

"We are new to Palm Springs area from Canada, your restaurant was recommended by a friend who was here last year. We loved the ambiance and all the memorbilia of the great Arnold Palmer. My husband was in awe of all the beautiful pictures and memories that he remembered following his career. We loved our meal and have already booked another night. I would rate this as a #1 restaurant."

"This our fourth time at the restaurant. The food was great - servive was outstanding. The greeting by the hostess was very friendly - started the evening out right, and she changed our location when we mentioned that we prferred a quieter room. The Palmer memorabilia is always fun. We would recommend that they put some kind of lighted sign outside - it's easy to miss the turnoff."

"We've been going here off and on for years. For some reason, the food just doesn't quite make it. Two of us ordered prime rib, mine medium plus and the other medium rare. They put some sauce on mine to make it look as though it was cooked more. The medium rare didn't even have any pink in it. Our waitress said she was new there. Not sure how much experience she has, but we rarely saw her, and the restaurant wasn't particularly busy. We'll try it again, but it will be a while."

"Very disappointing. This place has slipped dramatically, or just a bad night. Food was overcooked and tasteless. Server disappeared for the last 20 minutes, we had to ask another server to get our check, and our server didn't even show up to bring it."

"Can not say enough good things about Arnies place. Was so excited that they brought back Arnold's Mac and cheese and the cream corn. Two of my favorite items. Staff is great and so attentive. If you are looking for a gem in the desert this is the place."
