- MMichaelVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •16 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoUtterly stunning experience. It felt like desert paradise with the vague view of the mountains and blue skies. The subtle live music. The great attention to care on our wine that we brought in. And the food was PERFECTLY executed from a salt, acidity, taste, texture, and aroma. I was so pleased with every single bite. 100% could see myself coming back here for the rest of my life’s trips out here to the desert.More infoMitch's on El Paseo Prime SeafoodPrice: Expensive• Californian• Palm Desert•4.8
