An amazing experience from top to bottom! Tony our server was the best we've ever had! The food was delicious and I was surprised how affordable this restaurant is. Everything was excellent! Highly recommend! Sit outside for amazing views!

We had Cheryl serving us tonight and she was PHENOMENAL no like seriously the best most attentive and amazing server. We came in super exhausted and honestly I was in a not great mood and she livened up my whole mood with her positivity. I honestly really just needed some good food lol, and that they did deliver. The pizza was great we got the hot honey special and it was so good. The limoncello flute was super refreshing and needed. The vibes of the restaurant were very cozy and warm since there were a decent amount of people with lots of laughter. I left a lot better than I was coming in. I will come back next time I’m in Palm Springs :) putting the last slice of pizza I have below as it didn’t last long and I forgot to take a picture beforehand

Our first night in Palms Spring to celebrate our one year anniversary and and a birthday, we decided to check our first local spot. This place came highly recommended from friends and social media so we had to check it out. This Chicago inspired restaurant is a unique spot in the sense you can. Some dressed up to celebrate something or come dressed down and just looking to enjoy great food. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of food/drink pairings and just creating a positive atmosphere. We brought our own bottle for celebrating and the staff shared it on the celebration. I can see this being a go to spot for us every time we are in Palm Springs and look forward to our return.... Definitely before the 2nd anniversary.

Our first time here for dinner. I had the fresh penne pasta with meatballs- excellent. He had a hand-tossed thin crust pizza. Also excellent. The waitstaff was friendly and very attentive. The portions large (we enjoyed all of this again the next evening for dinner). It bit pricey but worth it!

Very impressed with this Chicago-style, Italian-inspired restaurant. We stopped in on a cool evening in and dined on the patio. Gluten free options include pizza (gluten free and cauliflower options) and pasta (penne and spaghetti). The pics speak for themselves. Enjoy my gf family. Recommend making a reservation. Note- they will text you a link but all the time options were booked. I had to call to get fit in.

The pizza was ok(but not “wow”). Service good and setting ok.

We sat at the bar for a little while whilst waiting for a table outside. Typical bar. Outside was nothing special either over looking a car park. Then the food came. It was actually really good. I have the nutty salad, and my wife had chicken fettuccine. It was good.

Great little italian find! Pizza was some of the better I've found in CV. The roasted garlic appetizer with pesto was very good. Caesar salad was ok, could of been more flavorful, better dressing would help that out. Service was excellent! Will be back to try their pastas.

Nice bistro and with great heated patio seating and warm, cozy inside with a small but busy bar. Stopped by after an event & it smelled delicious from all sort of dishes but it was fully booked in advanced and bar was full so ordered pizzas to go instead. Nice service at the reception desk and easy order. I waited for over 45mins for it to be done, by then I could have a table or seat at the bar since they seated about 5 groups that just walked in like me and waited for 25mins…and this is the longest wait for pizzas for me ever. As for the pizza, it was good, the dough was soft and crusty around. Nothing special, the filling was just okey - was expecting for a some sort of wow factor but nothing since it was highly recommended. I got a small and a medium and both cost about $60 with $5 tip.

The Chicago "Style" pizza was bread with tomatoes and cheese on top...it in no way resembled a Chicago pan pizza. I have had excellent Chicago pan pizzas over the years (I have been eating at Giuseppe's since they first opened in Cathedral City) and this last was terrible. I ordered it from the new location in Palm Desert...maybe they didn't learn how to make a Chicago Pan Pizza at that location. I love all of the food at Giuseppe's...but I won't be ordering a Chicago pan pizza.

Disappointing at the portion size. I really love supporting local business but at these amounts makes it hard for me to go back. Put the stars for atmosphere only because I didn’t dine in.

Time to speak up. Being a nearby local and frequently try to support smaller restaurants..as a 2x restaurant owner..my bad experiences are sadly, starting to outweigh the good here. Consistency has noticeably slipped. More than a few carryout orders (mostly pizzas, salads and desserts)..the pizzas were cold. Despite asking for light garlic (another not great experience), that pizza and Caesar salad were nearly inedible..and I love garlic! Then there's arriving at the stated time and waiting 20+ minutes. I live 3 mins away. The box was warm..not the $40+ pizza, though. Over $60 with salad. So having experienced this a few times..here we are. Tonight, my partner and I arrived at 4:08pm to enjoy the Happy Hour (4-5:30) menu. We do this fairly regularly. Only two seats were available at the bar. Single seats, that is..far apart. The dining room was empty, sans 1 seated table. I asked if we could sit at the end table near the "bar tables" to enjoy Happy Hour. The answer was No. This definitely put a frown on our anniversary plans tonight and prompted this overdue review. I do hope business is that good for Giuseppe's, that they can turn business away, when the DR is empty..on a Tuesday..at 4:08pm. ⭐️ Consitency/Reliability ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pizza- 50/50 of the many orders, dine in or out. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Servers/Bartenders

Wait staff was friendly and eager to please. Atmosphere was beautiful - we ate on the porch overlooking the lawns and mountains. Food was AWFUL. Caprese salad was flavorless and cold... mushy tomatoes , cold granular mozzarella, and browning basil flakes sprinkled on top. The Prosciutto & Fungi pizza was cold, with solidified cheese, dry mushroom strips and prosciutto dropped on top. The Chicago pizza was solidified mozzarella on cold pizza crust, with 3/4" of crushed tomato sauce on top. Flavorless. Fortunately, the "cheesy garlic bread" was loved by our 12 year old son. Not sure WHO was running the kitchen today.. Our nearest table sent back their pasta because it "was all lumped together", a "solid mass".

I thought their food was very disappointing. I'm from Chicago originally so when I saw that they claimed to have Chicago pizza I was very excited. I got a salad and a pizza. The salad dressing was thick and didn't taste right. The pizza was lite on sauce, cheese, toppings. The crust was nothing special. It almost seemed like the pizza had no flavor. These people have obviously never been to Chicago or anywhere with good pizza.
