nice alternative to another steak house 2/12/2006

My wife and the couple we were traveling with wanted to find something other than another steak house and we did! We all thoroughly enjoyed the food, wine and service. The restaurant itself was small and a little cool but didn't hinder our enjoyment of it. Dress warm and enjoy. Pros: Great food, Great service, interesting crowd Cons: Parking, Prices more

For Pete's Sake, I would like some service! 1/14/2006

My husband and I took my parents to Johannes over the holidays after hearing wonderful reviews. The service ruined not only the meal, but the entire evening. Our waiter acted like he had a huge chip on his shoulder for having to work. He would not describe the menu, he was huffy when we asked him for water, he neglected putting our orders in on a timely basis-- everyone got their food at a different time, most of which had to be sent back for over-cooking or under-cooking. He was downright mean. Angry. The food was forgettable, at best. There was no manager on duty to speak with, even though we were clearly frusterated-- as were many other tables. more

Well worth the visit! 12/22/2004

Upon several recommendations we chose to spend our highly valued ""date night"" at Johannes. We were not disappointed! The food was fabulous and highly inventive. My husband ordered two appetizers in addition to his entree, and because they were so wonderful, he savored every drop! The dessert was among the best I've had anywhere. The staff was attentive and sensitive, keeping plates cleared and glasses filled. It was expensive, but worth every cent. Pros: Intimate, convenient, un-crowded Cons: , a little "cold" more

Good but not cheap 12/3/2004

Our group of six enjoyed a good meal and an excellent cocktail and wine selection. It was a little pricey but probably on par for Palm Springs. Pros: style, bar, wine locker more

wow 8/9/2004

what an incredible chef Johannes is. This is one of my fave restaurants ever. His menu is well thought out and has something for every taste. The freshest ingredients. I was here in '03 and remember what I had to eat a year later. Excellent wine selection. Grilled octopus. Seared ahi tuna with sesame with apricot and one other sauce over brocolinni. Japanese sea scallops seared over spinach. Pork tenderloin. Creme brulee. Molten chocolate cake. Apple strudel w/vanilla sauce. Pros: good portions, wine!, awsome food more

Unique & Excellent Cuisine 3/9/2003

The hostess was out again, Johannes was playing host again, and told us the hostess won't be back... More importantly, the food was indeed excellent, a creative and unique combination of European and Pacific Rim flavors. The ambience is ""modern"", service is excellent, and the restaurant is a very welcome alternative to the ""Tourist Mile"" on Palm Canyon Drive just a block away. The only improvement would be more choice for vegetarians. Pros: Unique cuisine, Johannes, Location Cons: Pricey more

Great, GREAT FOOD! 2/21/2003

Dined here at the recommendation of some friends and found it to be the best food in Palm Springs! And the night we went 2/15/03, the owner was playing host because his hostess was out sick, and he was WONDERFUL! We made reservations and there was a bit of a wait because they were behind, but he was so accomodating. The drinks are fun and TASTY, try the Tangerine Martini, YUM! The food....TO DIE FOR! Really good - nuff said! Pros: Food, Great Staff, Location Cons: NONE! more

Culinary Elevation Internacional 11/5/2002

A mindblowing dining experience! As a saavy diner, I have been around the world in search of culinarary stimulation. Little did I know that I would find ""culinary elevation"" right here in the heart of Palm Springs. The owner and chef, ""Johannes"" is an extremely talented Austrian-born creator of ""World Fusion"" cuisine. He takes the finest ingredients from all over the world and combines them in scintilating ways that few others have ever dreamed of. The result: Let's just say that when you taste this food, you toes will curl up automatically. Pros: Orgasmic Food, Fine Wines, Patio Dining Cons: Pricey, No Boothes, no burgers more
