Visited this restaurant because it was highly recommended by some friends. The wait staff leaves much to be desired. We sat at a table that was right next to the bar and they refused to serve us any food from the bar menu. Granted, we there were only three tables in the entire restaurant and one of the tables was... more

This is one restaurant in Palm Springs not to be missed!We have dined here several times and I think it gets better each time we go. Our favoritre is the Wienerschnitzel. No one prepares it better than Johannes - no one! The side dish that goes with it is the exact perfect compliment. Anyone going here may find it difficult... more

We ate there tonight - \I had smoked steelhead trout, partner had mix starter -salmon , prawn , tuna. I thought mine was best - her's was slightly above average but nothing special. We both had veal scallopine special with mashed potato and brocellini - this was excellent. We phoned ahead and although restaurant closes at 10:00pm we were able... more

My husband and I went for lunch. I had the Pumkin and carrot soup. (Delicious!) followed by appetizer Tuna Tartar, although the portion was very small. It was very good. My husband had the chicken schnitzel with capers and lemon sauce. (Really good!) for dessert we had the trio dessert sampler which consisted of apple studdle, coconut, banana bread pudding... more

What comes out of the kitchen (schnitzels, fish, meat, poultry, salads) is well prepared and presented. You can have here a perfect meal of many different tastes: Austrian, Continental, Nouvelle California - the mark of an inspired chef who takes his cooking seriously and wants to cater to his guests. He will even prepare a special "variation" such as "Schnitzel... more

It is always a gastric joy to find a good Zagat rated restaurant in any touristy place, but in Palm Springs, even more so... so full of the pizza-joints, beer and burger joints and chain fast food places... Johannes was just a treat! simple but classy decor, attentive wait staff and the food was exceptional, one page menu - 8-9... more

The atmosphere is surprisingly very good - low key but not dull. The food was great. Lamb chops - very tasty. Snapper (a special) - perfectly done and a great flavor. The biggest surprise was the brussel sprout salad (uncooked). Simply and Yummy. Shared the dessert trio - all good (strudel, creme brulee, and bread pudding). Also yummy. The service... more

We have dined her 20 times and never been disappointed. The menu is by far the most varied and interesting in the Coachella Valley, from complex California cuisine to the best wienerschnitzel with lingonberries and cucumber sour cream salad outside of Austria. We have enjoyed the venison, lamb chops, steaks, and creative preparations of a variety of seafood, and the... more

A high-end dining spot that richly deserves its reputation for fine food. Few could fault it in terms of quality and presentation, but we found the service too flawed to warrant a return. Having checked once already to confirm she had our order down accurately, our waitress then brought the wrong appetizer - a minor mix-up turned major when she... more
