From farm-to-table brunches and rooftop cocktails to locally inspired menus and bold global flavors, the dining scene in Greater Palm Springs is as vibrant as the views — and Restaurant Week, returning May 29–June 7, 2026, is the perfect time to savor it all.
This year, there’s even more to enjoy. Thanks to a limited-time Love Local and Shop Local gift card program in select cities, you can support restaurants and get rewarded while you eat. Whether you're a local foodie or visiting for a long weekend, here’s how to love local and make the most of every bite.
What Is the Love Local & Shop Local Gift Card Program?
This digital gift card initiative was designed to support small businesses and give diners extra spending power at participating restaurants this year. This special Restaurant Week edition returns just in time for Greater Palm Springs Restaurant Week, with the city of Rancho Mirage offering unique incentives.
When you purchase a gift card, the city will contribute a bonus amount — giving you more to spend and more to savor during Restaurant Week!
