Having listed our condo with Mesquite Realty & Rentals at the recommendation of our dear friend and real estate agent, I expected a great deal more than the service we received.
The staff is actually very nice and sweet, a couple of ladies who have been doing this job for quite some time, but the level of service was lacking in my opinion. Things were slow and awkward, and during the entire season we got one rental out of the deal.
There are a ton of rental agencies in the Coachella Valley. I recommend giving someone else a try.

Any time we go to the desert we ALWAYS stop in to Wang's In the Desert for at least one meal. The cuisine is fantastic. Friday nights the bar and patio are a local happy hour favorite for the predominantly gay male clientèle. The place just rocks.
For happy hour, the have great deals on drinks and the crowd really is fun and friendly.
If you're coming in for dinner - most any night but FOR SURE on a weekend - make sure to make a reservation well in advance. The place fills up quickly.
Favorites are the Broccoli and Beef and the Tangerine Beef, but we have yet to try anything on the menu that wasn't fantastic.

Mirasol claims not to have a can opener in the place, and man, I believe it! The fresh salsa & chips to start off and definitely the best burritos I've had - and I've had my fair share of burritos, let me tell you!
It's a quaint little place just outside of the crowds of the downtown strip. And, unless it's the heart of summer, the patio provides a great dining atmosphere outside. One of my Palm Springs favorites.

Third Street Grind is just a block off of the square itself, has a great outdoor patio and lots of space. I like to plop down, plug in my laptop and work away. It's a relatively quiet place w/o a ton of traffic, which makes for a good working environment. The people are cool and the coffee - MOST IMPORTANT - is good. No Wi-Fi is a detraction, though.

Met some friends here in town from NYC. The place cleared out as soon as the theater started, so we didn't have to fight any sort of crowd, to say the least. There was a live jazz band playing. I'm no jazz lover, but they seemed average. The food, however is very good. They offer a prix fixe menu, or they offer all of their entrees in an appetizer portion so you can really mix and match what you want. Our server, Mike, was fantastic.

UPDATED: I've been for lunch several times in the past few months and have had really good experiences. The service in the dining room is usually just OK at best. The Bartenders are usually pretty good. But I'm definitley warmed up to the food.

Can't say that I'm enamored with the food, but the place, as a local neighborhood hangout for me and a co-worker who lives around the corner, serves good margaritas. Unfortunately, my favorite (and the cutest) bartender, Kale, has moved on to greener pastures (how's Kincaid's treating you Kale?). Still, it's a fair place to stop in after work for some chips and (really good) salsa, and a beer or margarita.

Crogan's is such a Montclair place. And that's a good thing. I stopped in one night after work and asked about their scotch selection. That led me through the stories of the bartender's golf and scotch tasting tour of Ireland. How cool! These guys know their stuff. A word to the wise... Stanford fans should probably stay away on game nights ;).
I haven't actually eaten dinner here, but the appetizers are typical bar fare. Nothing special, nothing wrong with it. Just a great place to stop in after work and have a drink or four.

I was possibly the only person in the restaurant, certainly the only one at my table, who didn't speak French. There is certainly a sense of authenticity when everyone can actually understand the menu and speak the language. The place is very quaint and pleasant. They have a fairly extensive wine list (French, of course) and the food was excellent all around the table. There is not a full bar, so it's wine and beer instead of cocktails, but head around the corner to Bar on Castro for your pre-dinner drinks. Definitely worth a try.

I've been wanting to try this new place in Rockridge for a few months now. Finally tried it out on a rainy Sunday night. Unfortunately, the weather made dining on the patio outside a non-option, but we'll definitely return for that experience later. The food was outstanding, service was very prompt and friendly, prices were good. We spend about $60 with a round of drinks with tip and tax for two. All in all, this is one of the best Indian restaurants I've tried.

When I first visited several years ago, I remember being very impressed with the food. When we visited again a few months ago with some friends from out of town, everything has lost its splendor. The place is always crowded, and the service seems spotty, but what brought us here was the BBQ. I can't say that it's really worth it any longer. The sauces were decent, but the meat and options were lacking. Like another reviewer says, "what choice do you have"? Not many good options that I've found. My suggestion is buy a jar or two and take it home to make your own.
