The bread at the beginning was freshly baked sourdough – really good!
We ordered the sautéed mushrooms, eggplant lasagna and the Fettuccini Alfredo. Food was very good, the service was excellent and fair prices. We will definitely come back!

Five Stars!! This restaurant is exceptional. I especially love the beet salad. I’ve never had one that compares well. Lasagna is good too. The atmosphere is great. The staff treat you. Great I highly recommend it. I came here yesterday and we’re back today. Can’t get enough of that beet salad and eager to try dessert

There was nothing to dislike about this restaurant. The menu is loaded up with Italian favorites. We came from Arizona to Palm Springs for my wife’s birthday celebration. Both the food and service went beyond our expectations. Very nice atmosphere. Thank you for making my wife’s birthday special.

Nice outdoor seating, music was a bit odd but the place was very beautiful. Prices are very high, food was decent. Not really worth the high price in my opinion. Wife said her chicken was very dry. I ordered the lasagna dish from the dinner menu, it was a solid 8.5/10. The sauce was a little sweet for my liking but other than that, it was a great dish. Waiter was very friendly.

We have just returned from our first meal at Backstreet Bistro. Fantastic. We booked ahead via Open Table and a good job we did as all inside tables were taken whilst we were there. Very helpful and personable waitress who brought lovely bread & butter / oil & balsamic to our table with a small bowl of freshly cut Permesan.
Excellent menu. Plenty of choices for all tastes.
We had the Bruscheta and Calamari to start, followed by Chicken Piccata and Seafood Linguine with white butter sauce.
All the food exceeded our expectations and we will certainly return when we next visit Palm Desert from the U.K.

The Bistro had an outside party so seating inside was the only option .A little stuffy and tight. Our perimeter table was isolated on two sides. The Bistro was packed @600 PM ir made a difference. You must try the crab cakes! They are amazing not too much filler;great sauce to complement. Wife loves the Bruschetta.She could have eaten another sand dab one was small . Service was good but Friday night packed with a private party they held up pretty well .

First lunch meal about a month ago: party of 4, we all had a great lunch meal! Super service! Second Service, Dinner, 4 different people. Very poor service, food awful. Third service, 3 weeks later, to give it one last try today for lunch. Table for four, lunch. This time I took photos. I made a reservation for 4 for 11:30 a.m. only to find website, yelp, Google maps all said they open at 12. I made an emergency call at 11:30 from the parking lot, with no one in site except my guests, and I was assured 11:30 was ok. I ushered my guests in for an early Mother’s Day Lunch. Pleasant service people. We finally found a table we liked (sorry staff). One diner had a Club House Sandwich with regular fries, she was happy. One diner got a measly 1/2 Sandwich with half salad, seemed fine. One diner (me) ordered a Club House Sandwich with Sweet Potato Fries. Halt! Fries were way overcooked. But Sandwich good! Last but not least Diner #4, a pizza aficionado, ordered the Pizza Margerita. When it arrived we all stared at in shock! Soggy, uncooked cheese pizza (still see the grated unmelted cheese), on top of which were four raw tomatoes with cheese blobbed on top. He cut apart the pizza and all the raw water and uncooked cheese and dough pooled into liquid disgungtinness (a word?). He didn’t want to cause a scene so he managed to swallow down parts of two pieces. I told him that was hands down the worst pizza I’d ever seen and never would have eaten it, as did agree the 3 other diners chime in. So we gave Backstreet Bistro more that a fare shot. We will not be returning. I’m also not sure I would call it an Italian restaurant, most food was Americanized. Bye bye, sorry.

Dined here last night (2 couples). My friends enjoyed their chicken dinner but my wife ordered lobster ravioli and she found the ravioli to be quite mushy and the sauce was very starchy. I had seafood pasta and the sauce was a bit watery and I thought I broke my tooth as I chewed on a few small pieces of broken mussel shells multiple times. There should not be any broken shells in the dish especially it’s not outright visible. But the bread was fresh and half price wine was good and appreciated
