One of THE best places in Palm Desert. The staff are amazing and the food is great. We held a 90th birthday party on the side patio recently! What can I say, the honoree was blown away, the guests had a great time and the owner, Lavane made it all PERFECT. THANK YOU.

Service was AMAZING!! Food was AMAZING!! I looove Backstreet Bistro❤️❤️- been going there for years..
A favorite and first stop every time we are in PS
Great good and excellent wines! Indoor bistro or outside seating!!!
Beautiful restaurant dishes food :)
We were a group of six. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. The atmosphere is pleasant and the pricing was reasonable. Personally, I would steer away from the cream sauces. I thought they were heavy, and overwhelmed the other ingredients. The sand dabs and salmon both were great and the lasagna was well received. I would go back to try some other items on the menu.
Backstreet Bistro offers inside and outside patio seating. We had a delicious lunch that was fairly priced for the area. My club sandwich was large - I took half of it home for dinner. The service was excellent. Helpful Hint: Great place to have lunch after shopping at El Paseo or after a visit to the Living Desert Zoo and Gardens. Plenty of parking.
The patio dining is superb. Excellent service. Delicious food. Nice curated music playing.
Was in the area and craving something small but hardy with a cold beer in this beautiful warm day. Came here and they had the right items! Super friendly and attentative, great service and delicious food!
First time here, will definitely come back. Everything we ordered were delicious! Very friendly staff too.
Just finished my delicious French Toast. My wife and daughter had the El Paseo Eggs, but they weren't impressed. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was comfortable. I hope to return soon to try their dinner offerings.
Went to this place on Saturday evening not knowing what to expect. No reservation, but they seated us immediately. Before we could even pull our seats in, they had water and bread delivered to us. Havent had that happen for us in a long time. We order our food and a single glass of wine. My wife and I were just going to share it. They brought wine in a carafe and 2 glasses which was nice. Recieved our food in a timely manner. Food was incredible. Passed on desert because we were full from that great food that was hard to put down. Told the hostess we would definitely be back to eat there again. Would recommend this place to anyone!!! WELL DONE BACKSTREET BISTRO!!!
I think i had the best rueben of my life here. All of the food was outstanding, and the staff was extremely friendly and attentive but not overly intrusive. The atmosphere was great. If i lived in the area I'd go eat there atleast once a week.
Staff was welcoming, friendly, and provided excellent service. Butter & bread was delightful. The aged Parmesan they provided as a snack was tasty. We ordered the calamari appetizer and it was perfectly seasoned with a nice crisp not overcooked or chewy. Main course was scrumptious all ingredients tasted fresh and cooked to perfection. We did not make it to dessert but drinks were refreshing. This restaurant is a little hidden gem in the valley. I would definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys quality foods.
Surprising find. Great food and service! Will be back.
A good location, nice sitting in a patio, great server, food was ok, good for comfort, nice music.
We were served warm bread with butter and oil/vinegar, plus a taster of Parmesan. Our appetizers (calamari and bruschetta) were delicious! However, at our table of 5, 3 people ordered salads to come before the pastas (2 Caesar and 1 caprese) and for some reason the Caesar salads were brought split into 4 so everyone at the table got salad. We did not ask for this and told the food runner but he insisted that was what it was supposed to be. Weird. And the salads were very disappointing for the price. All our pastas were enjoyable. The prices on our bill were consistently higher by $1-2 than on the menu we ordered from. Wine list is limited and corkage is offered at $20.
Overall we had a nice evening, just a few quirks.
First time there, and my friend and I only decided to have lunch there because Guillermo's was closed unexpectedly. But we were so glad they were, because from the moment we dropped into Backstreet Bistro until we left, absolutely everything about the experience was a delight! The greeting we got was friendly and welcoming, the patio was charming and comfortable, and the food was fabulous! (I had the turkey/avocado/bacon/ swiss sandwich on walnut cranberry bread, and she had sand dabs.) I can't wait to go back!
Big menu, great food, friendly pro staff
This restaurant and service they provide you is like no other ! Everyone is so friendly ! Omg and the flavors on the food is amazing I would totally recommend you coming here for a romantic date night !
