Willie's Modern Fare Restaurant

Superb experience!!! We had Sunday Tea and had such a fun time. It's posh of course, cause... you know... Tea! But, the server was fun, and a little funny. We also got to play dress up and drink tea and more important, the food was DELICIOUS!!! It's 100% worth the cost and experience, I cant recommend Willie's Sunday Tea high enough!

First, the service. Impeccable. Never once had an empty glass. Server was extremely attentive and made sure everything was perfect. The appetizers were amazing. Salmon Sashimi and General Tso Cauliflower. Both seasoned so well. That Cauliflower may have ruined Cauliflower for me though. The flavor and texture was excellent and that sauce was so flavorful. The entrees, Flank Steak and Dover Sole. The steak was cooked perfectly and the Sole was easily the best I had ever had. Finally, the desert. Butter Cake and Creme Brulee Trio. So delightful. So good. Such a great ending to a wonderful meal.

We had an amazing experience at Willie's! First of all, the service was impeccable. Our server, and all the staff, were so professional. One person in our party has food allergies and the server listened so intently, discussed with the Chef, and came back to us with the good news that the Chef could be accommodating. The staff made sure you had everything you needed but never hovered, never rushed you, just took care of you. We all chose the 3 course meal, but each had something different. The food was perfectly prepared, beautifully presented, generously portioned, and incredibly delicious. The craft cocktails are also beautiful and delicious. I had the Jalisco Violetta which is as tasty and it is beautiful, garnished with flowers floating in the lovely lavender drink. Lastly, the desserts were delicious. I didn't get pictures of everything but you couldn't go wrong with anything! I can't wait to return to Willie's!!

From the moment we walked in, this restaurant delivered an exceptional experience across the board. The food quality was outstanding—each dish was beautifully presented, perfectly seasoned, and clearly made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every bite reflected attention to detail and culinary expertise. The service truly elevated the meal. Our server, Johnathan, was professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. He was knowledgeable about the menu, offered great recommendations, and checked in at just the right moments without being intrusive. His service made us feel valued and well taken care of. The atmosphere was just as impressive—clean, stylish, and comfortable, with a warm ambiance that made it perfect for both a relaxed dinner and a special occasion. The lighting, music, and overall vibe created an inviting and memorable setting. Overall, this restaurant earns a well-deserved 5 stars for food quality, service, and atmosphere. With exceptional dishes and standout service from Johnathan, it’s a place we’ll absolutely return to and highly recommend.

I was looking for a place to have dinner for just me. I came across Willies and decided to give it a try. The moment i walked in the door I was greeted with a smile and made to feel super welcome. Once seated the wait staff was knowledgeable and attentive, providing excellent service. I ordered an expresso martini that was one of the best Ive ever had. Next came the asparagus egg appetizer that was an explosion of flavors and definitely didn't disappoint. My filet arrived shortly after and was cooked to perfection. For dessert I had the trio creme brulee and all three flavors were amazing. Not a single thing wrong with this evening and I cant rave enough about the atmosphere, the staff, and the food. Thank you for making the only local restaurant I ate at in Palm Springs one to remember.

Willie's is an amazing restaurant. The owner Willie Rhine is very accommodating, calm and helpful for big events. The staff is professional, attentive and kind. The food is delicious and the restaurant itself is beautiful with lots of parking and a gorgeous atmosphere inside and outside. The staff did a great job with our event of 85 people, communication with Willie was easy and everything went off without a hitch. I recommend this restaurant for date night or a big event! Try the pork schnitzel and bread pudding!!

My husband and a dear friend had dinner the other night. We seated outside and it was a magical experience because the weather was fantastic. The food was over the top good and the service was absolutely spot on. We always joke that Rancho Mirage is so far away. For this restaurant, we would make the trip every night. We loved everything! I personally had the steak and it was amazing!

I've now been to Willie's two times and each experience has been very pleasant. Each time we veered left upon entering into the open seating bar dining area. While the bar menu may be more limited than the regular dining part of the restaurant, there's plenty to choose from. (Fried Chicken for under $20?!!) Their drinks are well poured and served alongside a pleasant attitude and friendliness by the servers. Can't wait to go back.
