Editorial Review for Cuistot – by Jennifer Schwartz
In Short
Bernard Dervieux opened Cuistot in 1987. Since then, this French-born, classically trained chef has turned his quaint Palm Desert restaurant into a highly rated culinary destination. Each dish reflects Dervieux's skill at delicately embellishing high-grade ingredients with complimentary seasoning, sauces and textures. Entrees range from rack of lamb to lobster pot pie. For dessert, Dervieux's signature Floating Island is a devilishly sweet and harmoniously light concoction of meringue, roasted almonds, creme anglaise and caramelized sugar.

I cannot beleive they can call this french it was terrible. Also overpriced, it lacked a sense of quality. The service was horrible and food is fair. La poan was a much better restarunt but is now closed because of this short-stick operation.

I highly recommend the wild mushroom soup and the mushroom topped veal chop. Be sure to check out the extensive wine list too.
Pros: amazing soups
Cons: EXPENSIVE!!
