29 Palms Inn

The food may be simple here—grilled meats and fish accompanied by a side dish or two—but with the vegetables grown in the hotel’s own garden and meats and fish often locally sourced, you don’t need a lot of frills to make the taste of the ingredients shine. The dining room is set behind the Polynesian-esque bar, and live music often accompanies the meals.
