Kaiser Grille Chophouse

Kaiser Grille Chophouse Palm Springs’ wood-fired steakhouse since 1992. Private events to 600. Fire, salt and lineage — three generations of butchers, live fire since 1992.
(1688)

Fire, salt and lineage — three generations of butchers, prime beef dry-aged in our own room, and the Block & Barrel bar with the First Fire happy hour daily from three. Kaiser Grille Chophouse has anchored the corner of South Palm Canyon Drive and Arenas Road since 1992 — a family-owned Palm Springs steakhouse built by three generations of butchers. Every cut is broken by hand and dry-aged in our own room, then cooked over live fire: a 108-inch oak and charcoal grill and a 750° almond-wood dome. Lebanese by name, Mediterranean in spirit, chophouse to the bone — Sito’s recipes beside USDA Prime beef and whole fish over embers. The Block & Barrel is our bar and our second house: craft cocktails, the block by the ounce, wood-fired flatbreads, and the First Fire happy hour, lit daily at three. Pull up at Sito’s Table, the Fireside, the Salt Side or the Sidewalk — no reservation needed at the bar. Canyon Terrace Lunch, weekend Brunch, the First Seating sunset dinner and Block & Barrel After Nine fill the rest of the day. We are also the valley’s largest private events house — 450 seated, 600 standing, three misted terraces open to the stars, and no room rental, only a minimum. Weddings, corporate dinners, celebrations of life, planned by one team from the first call to the last chair.

THE FIRES ARE LIT.
OUR DOORS ARE OPEN.
We closed for the summer and went to work. We look forward to welcoming you.

This is Kaiser Grille Chophouse, the wood-fired chophouse of Palm Canyon. The same corner since 1992. The same family. Three generations of butchers.

We brought our butcher's room to the restaurant forefront. Every chop, every steak is aged, broken and cut by hand, in our own room.

Our custom live-fire kitchen around a 108-inch oak-and-charcoal grill, with four rotisseries, and a 750° almond-wood dome.

We refreshed the dining rooms.

And we opened The Block & Barrel in the front of the restaurant — a full bar, Sito's Table, the Fireside, the Salt Side dining areas, the Sidewalk, the Canyon Terrace outside, and the block by the ounce. The daily place to pull up and stay awhile. One house, two ways to eat in it. Same block, same fire, same butcher, with energy, no reservations, and pricing you can enjoy daily.

Not a reinvention. A return to our roots and our heritage.

Two standards run underneath all of it.

The Ranch Standard — ranch and breed-specific, farm and ranch verified, pasture-raised, without added hormones, antibiotics or growth promotants. Our primary beef is Brandt: one family, one ranch, one breed in the Imperial Valley since 1945, on a 100% vegetarian diet for 300 days. We dry-age 42 days at a minimum, and break whole primals by hand in our own room. We cut on readiness, not on a calendar.

The Water Standard — fresh and pristine, wild or responsibly raised, sourced to Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch guidance. The day's fish is noted nightly.

Now through October 6 — Dinner & bar, nightly from 4pm.
Beginning October 7 — Canyon Terrace Lunch, Monday through Friday from 11:30am.
— First Fire (Happy Hour) - Daily from the lighting at 3pm to 6pm,
— First Seating (Sunset Dinner) - Daily from 4pm to 6pm.
Beginning October 10 — Weekend brunch, Saturday and Sunday from 10am.

Or walk into The Block & Barrel. No reservation needed.

Sahtein — To Your Health.

**An Exciting New Chapter Is Taking Shape at Kaiser Grille**

Kaiser Grille is temporarily closed as we prepare for an exciting transformation and the next chapter of our Palm Springs story.

Building on more than three decades in Palm Springs and three generations of family tradition, we're bringing our story, our live-fire cooking, and the Kaiser Grille experience to life in an entirely new way.

There is much more to come, and we can't wait to share it with you.

📜 THE STORY BEHIND KAISER GRILLE
Since 1992, Kaiser Grille has been part of the city’s dining culture.
The restaurant is located inside a historic 1956 mid-century modern building designed by E. Stewart Williams — a name closely connected with Palm Springs architecture.
That history still shapes the experience today:
clean desert design, patio dining, warm service, and a menu built around California coastal and Mediterranean flavors.

📜 THE STORY BEHIND KAISER GRILLE
Kaiser Grille was founded in 1992 by Kaiser and Lee Morcus and became one of Downtown Palm Springs’ recognizable dining names.
Its home adds even more character: a 1956 mid-century modern building originally built as Haggarty’s, a premium women’s boutique.
Today, that space feels like classic Palm Springs — stylish, relaxed, warm, and made for long evenings.
