Wilma & Frieda

A comfort-food restaurant serving breakfast, brunch, and lunch at locations in downtown Palm Springs and on El Paseo in Palm Desert.

Online reservations are not available, so arrive early during busy brunch periods and keep the surrounding morning flexible. The Palm Springs restaurant is upstairs downtown, while the Palm Desert branch is on El Paseo.

Why it made the guide

Groups split between sweet breakfast dishes and hearty savory plates can order from one menu. Choose the downtown Palm Springs or El Paseo branch around the day's route.

From The Orchid HouseA brunch favorite for us. Pro tip (in cooler months): request a table on one of the balconies for a prime view of downtown Palm Springs.
