What People Are Saying About Matchbox Palm Springs

Featured Review

Matthew Allard

Overlooking the famous Sonny Bono statue in Mercado Plaza, this upscale bistro pleases both the 20-something drinking crowd and the more mature diner with carefully crafted cocktails, chargrilled burgers and even steak and seafood selections. It's really the pizza that has made this Washington D.C. transplant a desert favorite, though. Burning at over 800-degrees, their masonry oven continuously returns crisp and flaky pies night after night. Toppings range between spicy home-made meatballs, Italian sausage and roasted red peppers to milder vegetables, portabella mushrooms and artichoke…

Editor's Tips

When to Go:
Everyday from 5pm-7pm and 11pm-1am (Thu-Sat only), happy hour heats up. Drinks and appetizers are discounted. Cheers!
The Extras:
Cigar aficionados can select from their menu of premium stogies. Light it up with a book of matches from the hostess stand; the eclectic matchbooks beneath the glass tabletops are just for looks.

We had a lot of fun!

by tombraston at Citysearch

I was in Palm Springs for a convention, i was part of a party of nine people who showed up for drinks. It was busy, yet we were all treated like V.I.P's. We had about six rounds of drinks, needless to say I will probably post another review about the cab that drove us back to the hotel. Will make it back next time we are in town. A great time was had by everyone!

Strictly for the Pizza

by nevadaguy at Citysearch

The pizza is fantastic, but the service is young, pretty and clueless. Anything else on the menu is strictly routine. There are 20 restaurants in walking distance better than this tourist trap.

First Time

by TyHof at Citysearch

I've heard good reports on the pizza at Matchbox. Unfortunately, when we went, we were not up for that. Due to a confused hostess (Dec. 2009) we settled for a quick drink and appetizers at the bar. Our waitress didn't know how to mix drinks (where was the bartender?), the appetizers were extremely bland (esp. the calamari ...pure chalk texture) and the staff inexperienced. I'll come again to try the pizza, but this was a bad first time experience.

  • Pros: Good central location
  • Cons: Young Wait Staff
