Very nice restaurant that only a few know about. Open to all but exclusive to those who know how great this hidden-in-plain-site place is. Great ambiance both inside and out. Great service staff. Great chefs preparing, not exotic cuisine, but great comfort food and a lot of other things. Huge desserts. Great drinks. But, basically, great food. The only side effect is that there's a 1 month reservation required to be able to dine there. But the wait is totally worth it. Small and intimate and a place you can't wait to return to.
All I can say is “wow”!
This little cafe-style restaurant tucked behind a shopping center and mostly hidden from the street was an amazing find in Palm Springs!
We had several recommendations from friends to get reservations here, and we were not disappointed.
The menu was fantastic (although we would have preferred a few more vegetarian or vegan options…) and the service was excellent.
We had a nice, relaxing dinner in their courtyard under the trees. The ambiance was great.
Our appetizers and entrees were 5 star. I especially enjoyed the baked Brie, the lobster ravioli, and the Osso Bucco.
The pre-dinner drinks were served quickly and were very tasty. Also, drink prices are a bit lower than most other restaurants, especially for rail drinks. They have a good selection of dinner wines, too.
I will highly recommend this restaurant to all of our “local” friends and visitors, too. We will definitely be returning here!
Great hidden gem. Not in the usual cluster of restaurants, but none the less a great place to eat old favorites. Definitely a country club vibe. Besides the employees we were probably the youngest table (let's just say that the average age fell below 70 that day, lol).
I had the osso bucco and it was amazing, but for me the treat was scargot (loved dipping the bread in the garlic butter from the dish).
Friendly service, despite our young age, we were treaded the same as other guest. (we had our kids and they treated with great hospitality from the beginning to end).
We will add this place to our rotation big restaurants in the area.
Excellent service and food at affordable prices. What more can I say?! Love dining on their outdoor patio. Very popular so you need to make a reservation.
It was a bit on the pricey side, but it was worth every penny because the food was absolutely incredible. The wait staff was prompt and very friendly.
A very cozy location that has fantastic food and service. Most everyone there has been there for years and years and... you get the idea. They treat you like family. We started with the shrimp cocktail, and my goodness, whoever had to put those shrimp down are heroes! They were that big! For supper I had the osso buco which was divine and my better half had the breaded pork chops. Soooo much food on those plates. I liked taking a bit of the sauce with osso buco and adding it to a spoonful of polenta. I'm not sure I actually chewed. When I looked over, the pork chops were gone. I think he was picking his teeth with the bones, he was so satisfied. In the end we did get dessert. A lovely creme bruleé chilled on the bottom and toasty on top, with a fantastic whipped cream on the side. If you haven't gathered from this review yet I will help. John Henry's is a lovely place to fill your spirit and tummy. It's up to you to find it. *wink
Lovely outdoor patio....heated so it an be used all year-round.
Hearty meals...pictured Osso Busco..oh my gravy with it was so flavorful wishing I knew how to duplicate. I know duck is also terrific.
Definitely need reservations.
John Henry's is a Hidden Gem in Palm Springs. The ambience, food and cocktails were all magnificent.
The food was Delicious and enough to enjoy. Not a skimpy meal. SERVICE was top notch from Rufus and Cheryl. Definitely will return.
Went with my husband for my birthday and had an absolutely wonderful time. Friendly service, romantic patio setting, and reasonable prices. Hubby said their cocktails didn't skimp on the vodka. Will definitely be back.
