The ancient tradition of the Samurai lives on at Mikado where knife-twirling chefs use fire and steam to create a mouth watering menu of steak, chicken and seafood delights. The highlight of the experience is the dazzling talents of your chef as he expertly chops, juggles, jokes and prepares an incredible meal right before your eyes. While you are led to your table through our private Japanese garden, notice the Koi swimming below and the sound of cascading waterfalls.

Mikado at the JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa is known throughout the Coachella Valley and Southern California as the leader in authentic Teppan-Yaki Dining.

But it doesn’t stop there! East meets West at the ultimate sushi bar where you can relax and enjoy the freshest foods and a signature martini or sake. Celebrate an intimate gathering or a private function up to 140 guests at Mikado where the food is the show! Arigato!

"Please note that Mikado Restaurant reservations are not inclusive of a boat tour."

    We've visited Mikado many times in the past. This one was disappointing. The ambience and staff were Amazing, this isn't about them AT ALL. The value for money just isn't there any more. You no longer get soup AND salad, but have to pick between them. The entree prices are exorbitant! $60 for a bit of steak and a few shrimp, and a large scoop of veggies is criminal. The shrimp appetizer was less than 2 shrims (they cut the shrimp into pieces and gave us each 4 pieces - not even an entire shrimp!). Soup OR salad, when both cost less than $2 to make. The fried rice at $8 for rice and a bit of egg that wasn't even properly mixed up. The drinks were over $20. Even the basic sushi for my LO (salmon and cream cheese was over $20). I felt like we spent a TON of money for very little. I wish we'd gone to Benihana actually ...

    7 minutes late as we were having drinks in the hotel lobby bar and it is a long walk. Cancelled our reservation and very rude when we showed up. Set the tone for a very average experience and for the cost there are many better alternatives.

    Mikado is wonderful. One of our favorite spots for tepanyaki. The service here is good. The chefs are awesome, and the food is amazing. This is a fun place for date night or to take a group for a celebration. It never disappoints. I like to get the sumo combo for two and we always have leftovers for the next day. You get a little bit of everything with it: steak, prawns, scallops, lobster, chicken, vegetables, rice. You really can't go wrong. The steak and lobster combo is always great too. Check this place out. You will not be disappointed. If the boats are running, enter through the hotel and ride them to the restaurant. If it is windy, they won't be available but they are running most of the time. Enjoy!

    We had a large party of 12 people and restaurant was super gracious and accommodating us at the same table. We had a great dinner. Our chef was great and overall a fantastic experience.
