After years in the desert, we finally tried Wally's . . . on Christmas Eve, no less . . . and were not disappointed! This is traditional, "old Palm Springs" dining at its best. It's not hip. It's not trendy. It's filled with the affluent country club set and with the finest work of our local cosmetic surgeons. People watching was spectacular. We loved every minute of it.
Wally's is elegant and beautiful. There was a piano player, in the upper bar/dining area, playing the old romantic standards. Tables were beautifully set. Lighting was perfect.
Service? Considering it was Christmas Eve, and packed, it was surprisingly good. We never felt the server was rushed and she was very pleasant, but also efficient. Our meal was nicely paced.
There was a prix fixe menu, the night we dined, which was excellent. I had the turkey dinner which, face it, is difficult to make particularly remarkable. It WAS though. Delicious. The other items were equally well prepared and presented. No trendy foam. No towers. No little dots of sauce. Just beautiful, traditional dishes that tasted great. The wine selection was good too.
We would rate Wally's a "5 star" except for two things.
First, although we were seated within 20 minutes of our reserved time, (not bad, actually), the reception stand was complete chaos. It was staffed with two young girls, one of whom was dressed in a shockingly slutty dress, who seemed completely out of their element. They were unable to manage the pushy characters crowding around them and seemed dazed by the crush.
Second, the manager, or matre d', was circulating among the tables, greeting diners. It's a nice touch, but he hovered over our table, maskless, (in violation of regulations), and it made us quite uncomfortable. In fact, about a third of the patrons were maskless, while standing or walking, and Wally's made no effort to ask people to follow state law. That was disappointing. People notice.
