“A French Bistro in Palm Desert, CA”

The premiere Parisian-style French restaurant located in Palm Desert, near Palm Springs, CA opened in 1993. Didier Bloch and his knowledgeable staff - many of whom have been with him for 18 years - have made Café des beaux-Arts a Palm Desert favorite. The menu features an outstanding selection of fine French entrees such as Duckling a l’orange, roasted Rack of Lamb Provencal and savory crepes and salads. The climate-controlled outdoor patio, located on the corner of Larkspur and El Paseo in Palm Desert, has a Parisian ambiance and is the ideal spot to people-watch and enjoy the desert lifestyle. The elegant new bar with its balance of cozy booths and a U-shaped copperplate bar top is where you will find a delectable “small bites” menu and features live entertainment two nights a week.
