A chic and sophisticated décor provides the setting for our distinctive "world cuisine", a provocative mix of zesty influences that creates a delightful dining experience in Palm Springs, California. Plush high-backed semicircular banquettes surround our dining room and offer comfortable and private seating. The cuisine has a light, exotic feel with an emphasis on Pacific Rim specialties, from Chilean Sea Bass baked in Banana Leaves or Kahlua-Barbecued Pork Chops to all sorts of tasty tapas, salads, wood-fired pizzas, and desserts. The Coral Seas Lounge, a hip mid-century style bar is lined with sexy black leather bar-stools and is reminiscent of the upbeat lounges of old Palm Springs. It wraps around the dining room and leads outside to a lush, tropical, 2000 square foot dining patio where a variety of specialty cocktails and old-school favorites are mixed - an ideal place where friends gather and martinis are sipped under the starlit desert sky.

Mr. Lyons’s is definitely my kind of restaurant. I loved my experience there. The Ambience is lovely, dark room , comfortable and beautiful booths, just a wonderful and private room. It reminds me the old glamorous movies.. I could see Frank Sinatra, Ava Gardner sitting there…. Food was good…. Great presentation. And Rusty the General Manager was such a jewel , so welcoming and kindhearted. He made the experience even more special. We just move to the dessert I am so happy to have found such a wonderful restaurant.. We have been coming here for over last few years but Mr. Lyons’s made an impression. Check it out..

Our experience was amazing as soon as we walked in the door we were met by Ashley, the hostess, who was so warm and friendly and accommodating. And then we proceeded to our fabulous booth for dinner for three and were serviced by Nikki the waiter, who was just a 10 out of 10. Service was great. The food was wonderful and the ambience was delightful.
