Kitchen 86 + Bar is a New American restaurant on El Paseo in Palm Desert, pairing a modern, eclectic menu with indoor and outdoor seating. Locally sourced ingredients, vegan-friendly choices, a full bar, and a remodeled patio looking toward the mountains give visitors several reasons to linger.

An Eclectic New American Menu

International dishes, vegan-friendly choices, and seasonal specials shape Kitchen 86 + Bar’s modern New American approach. The menu includes the berry Belgian waffle, roasted beet, eggplant parmigiana, boom boom shrimp, BBQ chicken, biscuits and gravy, wood-fired pizza, and chicken and waffles. That variety supports anything from breakfast or brunch to lunch, dinner, and late-night bites.

Patio Views and a Full Bar

The remodeled patio looks out on the mountains and El Paseo, while indoor seating offers another way to settle in. A full bar serves cocktails, beer, wine, and a complete mocktail menu, with happy-hour specials and brunch mimosas also available. The cool, friendly setting can suit a quick meal or a longer brunch with drinks and conversation.

Piano Nights and Flexible Plans

Weekly live piano and dueling-piano nights bring energy without overpowering conversation. Reservations are available for brunch, dinner, and special events, while dine-in, takeout, and delivery provide additional ways to enjoy the restaurant. Kitchen 86 + Bar takes a short seasonal pause for a deep clean and refresh, so check ahead before you go.

Add Kitchen 86 + Bar to an El Paseo outing when you want a menu with range, a mountain-facing patio, and a lively but welcoming atmosphere.
