Review:
Johnny Costa's Ristorante is a Palm Springs favorite for traditional Italian fare and fine wines in a cozy, inviting atmosphere.
Established by Johnny Costa in 1976, the family-friendly restaurant has been serving delicious Italian cuisine ever since, catering to celebrities and famous guests like Frank Sinatra, after which his two favorites dishes are named - the steak Sinatra and linguine clams.
The restaurant is decorated in exotic woods and has cozy booths, candlelit tables, soft lighting, classical Italian music in the background and serves Italian favorites such as thin-crust wood-fired pizzas, fresh seafood, housemade pasta and sauces, and homemade desserts. The full-service bar serves boutique wines from Italy and around the world, top-shelf spirits and craft and draft beers, and the restaurant is open for dinner, Tuesday through Saturday.
