I had a wonderful time at AJ's on the Green and Splash Lounge. I'm a freelance professional jazz pianist, and one of my music colleagues is a guitarist named Doug McDonald, and he performs there several nights a week with his trio. I have worked with him on and off for about 12 years, and when the opportunity came up to sit in with him at the lounge, I took advantage of it! I was out in Palm Springs with my husband in mid-December, at our timeshare, so we went to the lounge for dinner (which was good) and drinks one night and I sat in with Doug and played a bunch of numbers on their nice baby grand piano. In the two sets during which I sat in, I accompanied some of the guest singers, and also played on a few instrumentals. It was a lot of fun, and everyone there was so welcoming and friendly, and especially, so complimentary of my piano playing! It was a wonderful atmosphere, and it made the evening really special. My husband got the same vibe, too, and that can't be said of every place that we have gone. So he and I will think of this place as being exceptional.

This place spies on their customers with a camera and a listening device so the owner obviously doesn't realize this is a federal offense. I have personally been a victim of this. Watch what you say. She also calls her customers drunks behind their backs. If those people who are considered to be a said drunk weren't their spending money and getting inebriated they wouldn't make any money.
Feedback:
The property is nice, and the waitstaff very pleasant, but the time between placing an order and getting the food delivered to the table, even though it's a table for 8, when it's mostly salads and sandwiches and it takes over an hour is simply not excusable. ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS THE ONLY TABLE OCCUPIED IN THE RESTAURANT (one other table of two entered after we placed our orders and sat outside). I won't go back.

The soup du jour, chilibean; delicious. Mussels in wine sauce; excellent, bistro fries; served Belgian style to dump into the mussel sauce; outstanding. Washed down with delicious chardonnay, in pleasant garden surroundings on the patio. What a pleasant surprise! Still got to try the Crème brulée lemon cheesecake and Earl Grey. Excellent, knowledgeable, friendly service. Really glad I came here this evening. PS. Adding a star for the dessert mentioned above, unsurpassed.

We discovered AJ'S due to a TV promotion for JAZZVILLAGE with singer Jessica Taylor who was appearing at AJ'S the next night. We enjoyed the music and food , and the service very much and have been back several times. One of the charms of desert entertainment is the wealth of talent who just pop out of the audience to perform, and WELL. New owner, Lee I think, is present and involved with the operation and greeting customers. Menu has been expanded in the past 2 weeks and I am looking forward to dinner and music TONIGHT. Yep, they do cater to an older crowd Isn't it great!!
Feedback:
We were on of tables so not a busy lunch destination. The burger was good however the lettuce was wilted and had brown spots and was like a big wedge of lettuce instead of but as sleeves and the sourdough bread I was molded on the club sandwich fries with just okay service was just okay but way overpriced especially for what you get. Honestly I would choose McDonald's over this place.
Feedback:
Visit the desert often from LA to see family and read it was good place to take my friends and visit my parents, but REALLY? The music was sooo loud we couldn't hear ourselves! A bunch of old guys in the band, the horn was too loud ...yuk. We had a table. Slow service. We had a table of 8, first the bar manager or person who answered the phone for reservations was rude! The food was overpriced for what we got and , a joint in the trailer park, no less. Had so much trouble finding the place.. Much ado about nothing...really disappointing...heard it has new ownership
Feedback:
The food and service were both good and reasonably priced, but the reason for going is the entertainment. Accomplished musicians doing their turns in a relaxed atmosphere. Marred a little by guests at other tables talking too loudly over the performers. (In many ways an unfair criticism, the other guest were there to enjoy themselves, the management had notices on each table asking guests to keep the noise down and it is a problem inherent to the relaxed atmosphere.)

AJ'S did my small wedding party last week. Food was awesome - service was great and the staff was absolutely lovely. The owners went above and beyond and made our night so memorable. Thanks guys! See you again soon! Best food around. The fried avocado!! Delish! Go...eat..and have fun! And try the stuffed dates wrapped in bacon. OMG. I didn't even know I liked dates! Thanks again. It was perfection.
