    Very tasty, great service, interesting surroundings. Seated in the larger/central room, therefore unexpectedly loud. Perhaps would’ve been better if seated in one of the side/smaller rooms.

    As foodies from the Boston area, I have to say that Le Donne Cucina is an EXCELLENT choice for delicious, authentic Italian food when in the Palm Desert area. The menu is extensive and varied. Almost all the various types of pasta are made handmade (and delicious) and the chef is happy to make changes in the type of sauce or pasta included with most dishes. Our waitress was delightful and very helpful with providing information on many aspects of the menu. The pace of service was good. The atmosphere is comfortable and casual. The noise level is on the loud side, but not at all offensive and just seems right. The prices are quite reasonable. Highly recommended!

    A group of us, 10 in all, went for Happy Hour. The server couldn’t have been more accommodating. He rearranged tables and seats, took the order for drinks and food. He was very informative, helpful, and fun. He was able to describe each of the dishes offered and make helpful recommendations. We enjoyed Happy Hour and will definitely be going back. Plenty of parking, great newly renovated bar, with TVs for sporting events.
