    Shorebird is a must visit. The food is fabulous and the service is top notch. Don’t pass on the pork chop. It’s not your mom’s pan fried tasteless chop

    Interesting menu. Beautiful decor but as the dining room filled the noise level increased to the point that people had to raise their voices to be heard across the table. There was a quiet table near the bar I’d request next time. The noise level made it unpleasant.

    Wonderful newer restaurant in Palm Desert. The rotisserie Pork is amazing and reasonably priced. Their chicken was also very good.

    Look this is a struggle. I have been to shorebird several times now. I have food allergies and I have just avoided the stuff I’m allergic to on past visits. This time, after informing them of my allergies I asked for what I thought was a simple substitution (a salad dressing). I was told no problem and was charged more for it. They completely screwed it up and gave me the wrong thing. After one bite I realized and informed my server. Nothing. I don’t know if I can go back. I haven’t been to a restaurant in 15 - 20 years that has screwed up like this. Super careless.

    Good food, good service. The only reason I did not give it a 5 star was the noise level. It was very difficult to have a conversation. The acoustics should be addressed in the restaurant. It was a busy night.
