Food as delicious as it is beautiful! Our first visit and we’ll be back. I loved the Beet Salad and followed with the Seared Scallops. So far this is one of the most well-appointed, elegant atmospheres we’ve discovered in our area.

Hands down our favorite restaurant in the Coachella Valley. The food is amazing 100% of the time. But what differentiates this restaurant from others is the service and staff. We found Ray early on and now request him every time. He treats us like family. When we arrive our drinks are waiting at the table. He bends over backwards to make sure we leave happy. Tonight one of our guests wanted horseradish sauce for his fries and Ray made it himself by hand. From the front desk team to the bus staff, everyone give 110%. Don’t miss this gem.

Service was attentive at our table of 6 in this very busy restaurant (though they did initially forget my salad). The wine menu was limited but adequate. I had the seafood pasta dish which had shrimp and scallops in a nice sauce. I started with the pear salad which was sizeable, fresh and delicious. For dessert, I had their creme brule which presented three separate dishes with different flavors though they tasted very similar.

Beautiful restaurant and atmosphere sub-par food. I ordered the chilean seabass and a side if brussel sprouts and they were delicious. My daughter ordered the mushroom ravioli and it lacked flavor, the asparagus was overcooked and soggy. Dessert was the Crème brûlée 3 ways. My daughter was not a fan. I had the chocolate molten cake it was delicious. The menu’s were back-lit which was great for the dark lighting.

Honestly this short Palm Springs getaway has been amazing. Cork Tree didn’t seem like much from the reviews but I was surprisingly impressed by the restaurant.

Service and staff were the bright spot of the night, the pork belly was delicious, and the drinks were great, but the cioppino and chicken were overcooked and salty. Atmosphere was intimate, nice, and well-kept, but in a dated, retiree-and-family-fancy-night-out kind of way. Overall, not bad, just not the place for me.

Great service, nice atmosphere good food and wine. The escargot appetizer was out of this world. The most unique version I have ever had – shiitake mushrooms, burgundy wine sauce and escargot! Off the hook. Also loved the beet salad. We loved the goat cheese paired w dates and a micro greens. The salmon entree was a bit underwhelming. Very salty and the crab topping was a miss. Potatoes and spinach were a bit off. I will come again if I am in town and try a different entree! Overall, I would recommend this place!

We had just come off 90 minutes of amazing massages from Azure at Desert Hot Springs. Called in advance to see if they had a dress code since we had massage hair, close to swimsuit cover up attire and thought we’d just get food to go to take back to our timeshare. But they welcomed us without judgement and we had a nice secluded spot outside on their patio on a nice warm evening. Service was respectful from the moment we walked in. Frank our server made us feel that he had all the time in world despite the fact he had a lot of tables to deal with. Every bite was perfectly prepared and enjoyed. Highly recommend this gem for the dual of polite and pleasant service and food worth the price.

My husband and I had such a nice dinner here. We started off by showing up a day early for our reservation. The restaurant handled this text book. A small wait and us being flexible about where we sat and we ended up with a splendid evening. It was a little chilly this March in Palm Springs so I was a little worried about being put on the patio but the heater was warm and their patio is beautiful. My husband ordered a filet and I ordered the scallops. The food was good, especially my scallops. The pomegranate was key on my scallops. The service was outstanding. From the hostess handling my error like a champ to our waitress, it was great. Pro-tip: Sit in the bar for happy hour. Get there early because it’ll be packed.

Went there during Coachella weekend after reading other reviews. We were not disappointed. It was a great experience and the food and service were excellent! Went there with friends and we all agreed that we will highly recommend Cork Tree! We have already added it to our list of go to restaurants in the area. Already looking forward to our next visit.
