Maleza

Located in the Drift Hotel, Maleza is a Mexico City-inspired restaurant in downtown Palm Springs celebrated for its stylish, upscale interior featuring a central fireplace and checkered tables. Diners consistently praise the 'Coconut Marg' and house margaritas alongside signature dishes such as the tender Wagyu skirt steak with pomegranate sauce, masa and queso biscuits, and duck flautas. This vibey destination is highly regarded for providing some of the best meals in the area, whether for a full dinner or sophisticated appetizers and drinks.

Viewers express strong enthusiasm for the location as a desirable Palm Springs destination, with many eager to return for specific menu highlights like the coconut margarita. However, while the general sentiment is highly positive, there is a specific point of contention regarding pet-friendly accommodations, particularly a preference against allowing cats in rooms.
