About Workshop Kitchen & Bar

Farm-to-table food may seem like an impossibility in the middle of the desert, but nearby Coachella Valley is actually one of the nation's most productive regions. Here you'll find that bounty on full display. A dedicated garden in Rancho Mirage, along with a sizeable herb planter behind the kitchen, furnishes peak-season produce for wood-fired dishes like a flat iron au poivre, and even a simple yuzu tart is prettied up with farm-fresh raspberries and wood sorrel. The setting is a Spanish-style building from the 1920s, while the interior is a modernist temple of polished concrete'a mist-cooled courtyard provides additional seating. Special touches like house-made ginger beer distinguish an exemplary bar program, with cocktails both classic and creative.
