“ Excellent across the board. All the food was delicious even the drinks were perfect. Can't wait to go back and have more. Well worth the price as the quality is exceptional, this may be the best food I've ever had in Coachella valley. ”

“ We recently brought our Dining with The Davids Taste Buds group to Wildest in Palm Desert for a 12-course tasting experience, and it was unforgettable. Chef Trilby delivered a truly inspired meal, but a few dishes stood out as clear favorites among our group: Top Appetizer & Overall Favorite: Haiole Nai Shrimp—crispy, sweet, spicy, and paired with a wasabi aioli and pickled ginger. It was love at first bite. Ahi Tuna Tartare came in second, with bright flavors and a refreshing finish. Best Entree: The English Pea Ravioli with black truffle sauce—earthy, elegant, and beautifully balanced. Close Runner-Up: Wild Scallops with parsnip puree and pomegranate molasses. Rich, sweet, and perfectly seared. Top Dessert: Butter Cake, which narrowly beat out the Warm Pineapple Upside Down Cake—both were decadent and delightful. Although we couldn’t fit it into our video, it’s worth mentioning that Wildest has one of the coolest private dining rooms we’ve ever seen—it’s inside the wine cellar! The room is glass-walled, air-conditioned, and ideal for special occasions, small groups, or business dinners. The ambiance throughout Wildest is off the charts. Every detail of the space is so well thought out—from the lighting to the layout—thanks to the owner’s background in construction. You can tell this place was designed with intention and passion. There’s also live music, which unfortunately didn’t make it into our video either, but it adds yet another layer to what is already a magical dining experience. Big thanks to our waiter, Bryan. He was perfectly attentive and a total gentleman. Whether you’re planning a date night, group dinner, or just looking for a standout meal in the Coachella Valley, Wildest should absolutely be on your list. ”

“ The chef is fabulous. The sauces are the best. My Nephew is Vegan and I am not. This restaurant has choices for both and the food is top notch. They also have music several nights a week. ”

“ We came in Wednesday night at 5:45. we were greeted right away . The restaurant is very pretty inside. It was fairly busy when we arrived. Cocktails, 2 of us had the margarita I believe Hibiscus, and I had a delirium tremens beer. The cocktails honestly were not that good, I tried them both and I did not taste any alcohol and there was so much salt on the rim most of it fell into the drink so it was very salt forward and defiantly no hint of any hibiscus. Appetizer we had the Ricotta Stuffed Squash blossoms which were very good. also the Bread service, which was also good. 2 of us had wedge salad nice and crisp lettuce and entrees Filet , Short rib, both Excellent and Chicken fried oyster mushroom was good just a little too much sauce underneath and a tad on the sweet side. Our server was very prompt as was water refill . One thing I would suggest is for the server assistant to wait till all people have finished before clearing plates from the table. It was a very pleasant experience and we will definitely come back ! ”

“ We're from Virginia and this is our first visit to Palm Springs. The menu at Wildest caught our eyes because of its variety. The beet salad and short ribs were two items that we came for. Then our server Paige described the Sea Bass and we had to have that too. We picked a reasonably priced Cabernet and it was great. The Ahi Tuna Tartare caught our attention and it did not disappoint. Paige even brought us extra plantain chips. The short ribs melted in my mouth and the Bass was buttery. Paige was attentive and cheerful but not obtrusive. The atmosphere was classy and the lighting was low and warm. To top it off, a talented guitarist played lively instrumentals in the background. We'll be back to try additional dishes before we head back East ”

“ We hosted a 45 person Rehearsal Dinner here, and have nothing but positive things to say about our experience. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Mike and Chef Trilby to organize the event and plan the menu. The food is SPECTACULAR. We love the cauliflower appetizer, short ribs, scallops, and plant-based entrees, and there's a gluten free vegan chocolate cake that is to die for!!!! My partner and I are dairy free, egg free, and gluten free, and we love dining here because we feel like we belong. The food is clearly labeled, there are multiple dishes we can choose from (apps, entrees, and even desserts!), and the wait staff is so incredibly friendly. We look forward to dining here every time we are in town. If you are in the area, you MUST dine here. ”

“ So great! We have come here multiple times, and every single time, we get the best service, best food, and best overall experience! Filet mignon was melt in your mouth - so much flavor and cooked to perfection. Duck confit tacos were delicious! The jack fruit stuffed Chile was spicy and definitely a must try. Even the mocktails were great! ”

“ I think this has been our best dining experience in this area yet! We were drawn to this place on a recommendation for vegan dining, but the menu was so enticing, we ordered “anything goes”! And everything was delicious! ”
