The Cactus Club

Just finished lunch at the Cactus Club at Palm Desert CC. We had the lunch special, chicken club w bacon and Swiss cheese. The food was fantastic. Service was very impressive. Martin, our waiter was very pleasant and very attentive. Wonderful experience!

If you’re looking for something fancy or pretentious, this place is not for you. If you’re looking for a clean place that’s great for catching a desert sunset with a solid basic menu at GREAT prices, then you’re looking for the Cactus Club in Palm Desert Country Club.
Their happy hour menu features adult beverages for $ 3.50!!! And the happy hour food menu is only $ 7!!!
Free live music (good music too!) on Friday and Saturday nights.
This is one of those places that I hesitate to review because it’s the best kept secret and I don’t want it to get too crowded. Then again, I want them to be able to stay in business. So, here I am tooting their horn. :)

Seriously, AWESOME! What an amazing find. A group of seven dined there tonight and our entire experience could not have been more enjoyable. Our table was initially set indoors, however, upon arrival, we requested outdoor seating. The Scottish manager was so nice and gracious about immediately accommodating our request. The table server was very cordial and attentive. The live band was fabulous. We ordered a variety of entrees including fish, chicken, liver, pasta and sliders. They were ALL reasonably priced and outstanding. Warm rolls and nice salads were also served with the entrees. Best of all was our waiter, Kyle. In addition to being serious «eye candy», he was so cordial, professional, checked with us often, knew the menu, made quality food recommendations and made sure our drinks were always filled! He was the best!!! Highly recommend this place. FUN FUN FUN

My bf and I went last week to check it out as I recently moved across the street. It is open to the public and located at The palm desert country club. Last week we listened to the band and had a drink. There was a private party that was to start at 9. We were there at 7:30. The private party guests were very rude and unfriendly. Told us we couldn’t sit at the fire pit by them. Left a bad taste to say the least. Icky people suck. Last night I called ahead to make sure we wouldn’t encounter that same scenario, and to give it one more try. To our delight the haters weren’t there and we had a wonderful time. We ordered a nice bottle of wine and had a great chicken Caesar salad and some cheeseburger sliders. There was a band on the patio from 6:30−9 that was wonderful. It was a lovely experience and I’m so happy that we gave it a second chance. We are looking forward to seeing the new friends we met there again soon.

Saw ad in paper for Thursday night pasta bar dinner for 12.95. It was excellent. Included soup & salad & garlic bread. Had 4 or 5 kinds of pasta plus gluten free. Chicken, bacon, sausage, meatballs, roasted veggies, broccoli, basil, pesto, garlic, tomatoes, snap peas & at least 4 sauces prepared by chef. All you can eat. It was outstanding. House wine was Sycamore Lane $ 4.17 a glass & was good. Beautiful setting at Palm Desert Country Club. Large inviting room with fireplace & bar. Outdoor seating with fire pits. Staff great.

we love this place. all the bartenders are knowledgeable and very nice. The prime rib is the best I have had in the desert. they have a prime rib night on Saturday night. I think the price is $ 22.95 and you get a choice of salad or soup and choice of potatoes.
