Love Richard and enthusiastically brought a few other couples with us to try. Wanted to love it. Ordered plenty of appetizers, starters and entrees and dessert. Rate it as a standard average country club experience. 3 stars. Missed the BLAZE.

We had a terrific time. Tommy was our main server, but everyone was great... loved the man who lit the fireplace and who ever made my espresso martini. Also loved the french fries... and I grew up on Idaho farm. The new decor was welcoming and perfect for IW. Thanks all! Terri W.

Ricotta with fig appetizer was very nice…since it is advertised as a “shareable” maybe serving it in smaller pieces would work better. Two of our group ordered the salmon special and declared it delicious…paired with a nice lemon rice and shredded brussel sprouts. One order of the chicken parm tasted ok…a way too large portion, not very warm, should have had some pasta with it. Side salad too awful! Desserts were not ordered as they seemed ho-hum and not interesting. Good service.

We were excited to visit Kestral on our recent stay in Palm Springs. Any new business will have its bumps, so we made sure to temper our expectations and just enjoy the visit. Ahi Poke bowl was pleasant and great value. The steak frites was a bit disappointing - combination of a few things including the cut of meat and the jus was off. The tamarind date ketchup was not provided or present unfortunately. With a few more months this place should be dialled in. Carrot cake was a win. HOWEVER - the staff were fun to connect with. They were all excited to be part of a new venture with RB at the helm. Reminded me that so many people start their professional life in the service industry, which is an awesome responsibility/ opportunity. Shout out to Venus and Miguel.

Hi James, we are happy to see your high rating - thanks! It is so great to hear about how Venus and Miguel made your experience memorable. We're so happy you enjoyed the Ahi Poke bowl, but we're sorry the steak frites weren't to your liking. We're hoping it won't be too long before you join us again and we'll be sure to give you a 5/5 experience.

Food was very average - frites were the best part of the meal. Drinks were slow to arrive and there weren’t that many people in the restaurant. Dessert was also average. Was hoping for better with the big name chef. On the plus side the new decor is beautiful.

This was my first visit to Kestrel since it opened in the space at the Indian Wells Golf Resort, but I had been a frequent visitor to the previous restaurant. I know that the city of Indian Wells spent an insane amount of money renovating it and hiring Richard Blais, whose PR team apparently did a great job of selling him as a “celebrity chef” to the 65-80 year old City Council members who probably would have hired anyone with a good headshot who could claim to have been on a Food Network show. The prices would have been reasonable at a nice restaurant in a trendy part of LA. If the food was amazing, they would have been reasonable in Palm Springs. They were exorbitant for Indian Wells, and especially for the quality and presentation it was a huge ripoff. We went on a Friday night. My parents live nearby, I was visiting them. I ordered their medjool date Negroni. Unbelievably sweet, zero bitterness to balance it out. The proportions were all wrong. It was like cough syrup. My dad ordered the prime rib, which came out way too undercooked for him after he specifically asked for it to not be bloody at all. He asked for it to be done a little more, specifically saying it was fine to just throw it on the grill for a minute rather than serve a whole new piece. It came out slightly more done, but no longer hot. My mom and I ordered specials, which I guess was foolish. She had a halibut cheek dish that was actually not bad, the only redeeming part of the meal. I had a short rib pappardelle special that was supposed to be in a mushroom cream sauce. The pasta was so over cooked it was mush, there was barely any short rib to be seen, and it was less a mushroom cream sauce and more a “the watery juice from the short rib pan” sauce. I can’t remember the last time I sent a dish back, but I couldn’t eat it. I just left it there. The little gem salad was similarly bland. The “crab cake hasbrown” was a fast food hash brown topped with a strangely sweet canned crab. Terrible.

The new VUE restaurant Kestrel is wonderful. Food, service and ambiance are great. A must needed remodel and food upgrade. Try it, you won't be disappointed.
