Johannes in Palm Springs

I enjoy the majority of the restaurants in Palm Springs but have been looking forward to visiting Johannes for some time. I finally had some friends from out of town and we were able to get reservations.Johannes is by far a step above the other restaurants and worth every penny! The service is spot on. The server explained in detail a delightful variety of specials for the day along with information about any dish we asked about. She memorized everything we ordered and came back with everything perfect!The food was incredibly pleasing to the eye, stunningly full portions, that were equally incredibly delicious!We shared escargot for an appetizer and tiramisu for dessert. Both excellent!I will be frequenting Johannes much more often, even if its just me eating at the bar.All the food is impeccable. There is an extensive schnitzel menu that has only compared to my favorite restaurants in Munich. You wont be disappointed with this place!!

Schnitzel time! Weather a schnitzel lover or occasional fan, Johannes has what you are looking for to please your crave for schnitzels! And don’t forget to indulge your sweet tooth with an apple strudel.Nice ambience and superb customer service!Parking can be a bit challenging depending on the day and time, plan accordingly.

Excellent place. Good atmosphere and great service! Nice crafted cocktails. Wonderful food, extensive menu. Definitely one of the best places in PS!!

Ambiance was MUCH better than it looked from outside. Service was top notch and the food was absolutely incredible. The scallops were cooked perfectly and the curry sauce, with the meatball appetizer was maybe the highlight. Everything was just incredible and I highly recommend it.

Food was delicious. My husband had the duck which he enjoyed very much. I ordered the Jager Schnitzel, which was crispy and flavorful. The restaurant was small and very busy, so abit noisy. But, the food and staff make worthwhile. Definitely, leave room for dessert: apple strudel and cream brulee. Try the sampler!

Maybe it just wasnt our place. The pitch from the server made me think we were about to eat michelin star quality food. It started out great with the appetizer but my main dish was raw in the center. I like things on the undercooked side so normally this wouldnt have bothered me but this was too raw. It was plated beautifully but the the flavor was just average in my opinion. Add in the fact it was very undercooked and I would say we wont be back. Shame, I really wanted to like this place.I should also mention my wife ordered a salad with salmon which turned out to be raw salmon. Perfectly acceptable if you know that but the server neglected to mention it was raw. Ask questions or you might get something other than what youre expecting.

Reservation process was simple. Called left message, got a prompt call back shortly after 3pm.Great wine and cocktail menu.Started with the meatballs in curry sauce and the seafood cocktail.Main course, I had the Pork Medallions My Way with apples, pees, gnocchi and a small side of spetzel.Service was good, food was good. Would definitely come back.

We had dinner at Johannes on Friday, November 3. Overall, the food was very good although a little overpriced. I had the Mamas wiener schnitzel which was quite good. Our waiter and other servers were quite attentive. Normally, I would have rated the restaurant 4 or 5 stars. However, the host was very rude and snarky. Our reservation was at 8:15, but we were not seated until after 8:35. The host kept telling us he was working on options while we waited and waited. When we were finally almost ready to be seated, I suggested we should receive a round of drinks. The hosts response was well thats not happening. Will I be back to Johannes? Well thats not happening.

Havent been here for quite a while...it was a very pleasant and delicious evening. Beth our server was delightful and very attentive! I highly recommend the Sezarac cocktail if you like whiskey. It is made with Bullet Rye, absinthe, Peychauds bitters, sugar cube and a lemon twist. Kind of a modified sidecar that has been around since the mid 1800s. Delightful!! My husband had the Texas onion soup...OMG.. velvety and delicious. I had the radicchio salad with toasted hazelnuts, feta, dates, arugula and pear. Yummy!! Truly the soup and salad could be your meal... But gluttons that we are we both ordered veal schnitzels. His was a traditional one with capers and lemon. Mine was Jager style with mushrooms, red wine sauce, bacon and crispy onions. Both were served with cranberry sauce and creamy cucumber salad. We were too full for dessert but I think it is absolutely brilliant that they have a sample plate of three bite size portions of their most popular desserts for those who want a little sweet something something without having to order a big dessert. We will definitely be back!

Great experience. The food was excellent. we all had different schnitzel. My favorite was the jäger schnitzel, but the peppercorn and the lemon carpet ones were delicious too. The cordon blue special is also one to try!!We had the cheese spätzle and the meatballs as appetizers. Both were good also. Lovely dinner experience. thank you.
