Originally located next to the Plaza theater in downtown Palm Springs back in the 50s, Louise's pantry relocated to La Quinta after the original location closed in the 1990s. Louise's pantry is probably the most popular breakfast spot around so there may be a wait. If it's too busy you can check out chula next door which is also excellent.

Maybe the best Italian restaurant in the region, flies under the radar due to its humble location. Originally located in Burbank, the retired chef opened up a small post retirement project, the food is outstanding as is the service. Reservations are required and hard to come by.
