Great service. Great atmosphere. Lovely bar. Food is very expensive and was not cooked per our request. Would not go again. This is not real Italian but American italian. It does have 1960s vibe.

We spend 2 to 3 months each year in Italy and the rest of our time here in the desert. Castelli’s is our go to place in the desert with an amazing old school atmosphere, John at the bar and his staff are wonderful, wait staff is on point and the best part of all is their food. Their Osso Bucco is legendary and rightfully so. Add in their terrific wine list and you have a place not to miss…see you soon!!

One of the best services I’ve experienced in the valley. The high light of the diner might be the dessert.

Oh my heavens, best restaurant I’ve eaten at in all of Palm Springs! This is a classic, “old school” Italian restaurant right out of the 50’s and 60’s. Reminds me of Angelo’s in Little Italy district of Manhattan. Amazing service, amazing menu, great wine list and the food was spectacular!!! Wonderful evening, thank you!

I felt like I walked into a New York City nightclub circa 1960s and loved every second we were there! The wait staff was extremely attentive and the food was AMAZING! This restaurant came to us as a recommendation and it didn’t disappoint. This place sets the bar high for other restaurants in the area. Don’t question it…just go! Oh and the sunset views are beautiful!

I would give them more than 5 stars if possible. We never miss a visit to Castelli’s when we are in town. The food and beverage selections are excellent, the staff exceptional and a very cool vibe with live entertainment. The fettuccine Alfredo with chicken is the best I’ve ever had. Go!

We love their food and so the service! The ambience is quite different from the other Italian restaurants we have been. I believe that, each restaurant, offers different experience based on- if you are celebrating something.

I would have never selected this restaurant on my own. We attended for a group dinner during a conference we attended. I had the pork chop for dinner. It was well prepared and left me wanting more, even though the serving i had was plenty. Also got to try the fettuccini Alfredo. Not gonna lie, I wish I’d gotten an entire entree of the Alfredo. It was amazing. The servers were wonderful. They shared the story of Castellis with us and made the dining experience extremely enjoyable. The restaurant was very lively during our Friday night visit. Can’t wait to go back.
