My husband and I have been customers of Copley's since it opened in 2004. This romantic, cozy, lovely restaurant (formerly Cary Grant's Guest House) is our go-to restaurant for celebrations with family and friends, but more often, just a night out for the two of us. We love dining at the small inside "blue" bar, outside on one of several patios, or occasionally family-style dining cooked in the outdoor oven. We have also come to know and love the staff as most have been there since it opened in 2004. They are personable, informative, and very professional. You will be surprised when you are recognized even if you have not been there for some time. As for the food, Chef Andrew is very creative, as you will note if you order (my favorite salad) Copley's Caesar Salad with pineapple croutons. It will surprise and delight you. You may consider starting with Hawaiian Ahi Tacos, my husband's favorite, or the Chilled Lobster & Shrimp Ceviche...my favorite. Moving on to the Entree is going to be a difficult decision. There is the Asian Spiced Barramundi, the Pomegranate Balsamic Glazed Scottish Salmon, and the very popular Roasted Half Muscovy Duck...to name a few. Now desserts, you must experiment with whatever your taste buds tell you. My favorite is the Toffee & Date English Sticky Pudding. Chef Andrew is from the UK, and needless to say, it is perfect. Now, my husband is a fan of the Chocolate Soufflé and the trio of ice creams. And yes, the basil ice cream is delightful. Their menu changes a bit seasonally, but you can be sure everything is fresh and cooked to perfection. If you have never dined at Copley's, you are in for a treat.

If the atmosphere doesn't knock your socks off as you walk into the beautiful patio, the amazing food and staff will certainly do that! I have been going here for years and never disappointed in Copleys. There were some improvements inside and out this year . A beautiful tiled fountain in the center of the dining patio makes for an enchanting evening. The service is absolutely the best! My last visit, Lonnie could not have been more helpful in pointing out some of the new additions to the menu. And the rest of the staff are always the most professional. The food was delicious and my steak was cooked to perfection. Some new cocktails and bottled wines only added to a lovely evening! I can't wait to get back and try some other new menu items.

We have been coming here for almost 15 years now, and it is still one of our favorite Palm Springs restaurant when we're up for a bit of a splurge. We love the atmosphere, and the historic Cary Grant 1940s cottage and patio with the peaceful grassy courtyard and gorgeous views of the the sun setting over Mount San Jacinto. It is classic, classy, yet comfortable. The food, service, and hand-crafted cocktails are always well-done. It seemed like nearly every table had a martini on this steamy day in May that reached over 100 degrees. We happened to be here for Restaurant Week this year, and so got to take advantage of the 3-course menu for $59. I had the potstickers (pretty good, but wouldn't order again), the Scottish salmon w/ mashed potatoes and asparagus (excellent as always) and the toffee & date bread pudding w/ Tahitian vanilla ice cream (an extra $8; I'm not usually a desert person, but this was amazing!). My husband had the Coply's Caesar Salad which which was really flavorful; wasn't a fan of the "pineapple croutons," but rest was great), the Braised prime beef short ribs w/ lobster mashed potato, wild mushrooms and merlot sauce (extra $15) - oh my gosh - absolutely delicious, even the broccoli was so fresh and flavorful. He got the dessert duo of Apple Streusel and Chocolate Kahlua dome, pretty good, but the bread pudding was definitely the winner! Looking forward to returning!

This historic spot was a must dine when I was in Palm Springs. This restaurant sits on a for Cary Grants guest quarters. While I was told there's no remnants left of Cary grants home, it's still cool to be on his former property. We dined outside. But the decor is very cool if u decide to dine inside. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. We started at app and drinks. They make a very good filthy martini. If you do t like olives, they have a sweet martini that is just as delicious. The menu is spendy. So several of us shared items and some ate an app for their entree. I splurged and had the beet salad and the barramundi. Forgot to take a pic. It was beautifully plated and delicious. The portions are small. They have gf and vegetarian options. The ladies restroom was very cute. Gotta check it. There may be more newer, less expensive restaurants, but just like Cary Grant it's a classic and worth it.

The service was 5 stars, blow me away. The food was a little underwhelming unfortunately. :( We got the lemon potstickers, rolls for the table, and me and my partner split the Caesar salad and steak. The best thing by far were the chicken lemon stickers, they were so good and I HUGHLY recommend as an appetizer. Ambiance was cute as we sat outside but right next to the servers station so constant chatter and chaos in that area. Overall I would go back, our server was the best, I forget his name but he blew us away.

As a visiting family in Palm Springs, we made a reservation to celebrate a birthday one night. Upon arrival, there was a small parking lot for the restaurant itself so it was not hard to find parking at all, despite being downtown. Even the entrance itself is stunning. We loved the decor and use of lights, as well as the ambience that the heaters gave due to their flames. We were seated right away, in their outdoor seating which is the center of the place. This table was spacious and surrounded with 3 heaters. We actually asked for an additional heater mid-dinner as it was still very cold and initially was told that the manager would not allow it as a safety concern, but a couple minutes after, one of the employees (a manager/supervisor) brought another one over, which really helped. In addition, they also offered blankets since the beginning of the meal. This added to the mood of dinner and I loved that coziness to it. One of the most memorable parts of our night was the service. Our server was very well-versed with the menu and gave her recommendations in a very well-spoken way. She was very attentive to our needs throughout the night and even brought a complementary dessert for our birthday member! The other gentleman who was in charge of clearing the table was also very attentive and made sure to ask before taking items away. The manager/supervisor also came by to check on us often. We ordered a couple starters to share which was difficult since they're small plates but we didn't want to spoil our appetite for the mains. We managed to all taste a little of everything and everything was extremely flavorful and beautiful in presentation. The mushroom butter that was paired with the bread was so fragrant. The ahi tuna tacos were so small and left me wanting more! For my main, I ordered the New York Strip Steak, medium rare, which was paired with asparagus as well as Truffle Parm Fries. I highly recommend this dish as everything was well cooked and delicious. Portions were also very reasonable for the price. Another member at the table ordered their special which was paired with a lobster mac and cheese and that was such a nice pairing with the short ribs. To finish off the meal, I ordered the Sticky Pudding to share. Another highly recommended dessert as it was not too sweet and so yummy, especially paired with the Tahitian vanilla ice cream. Don't let the four $$$$ deter you from visiting as the food, ambience, and service is worth every penny.
