Chi Chi (sometimes Chi-Chi) [1] is a Latin American restaurant at Hotel Avalon in Palm Springs, California. [2] Operated by restaurateur Tara Lazar, the restaurant has indoor and poolside seating. [3] [4]
Chi Chi serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and has a lobby bar with signature cocktails. [1] The Michelin Guide described the restaurant as a "chameleon-like Cali-Latin eatery morphing from daytime casual bites to a cocktail-driven gourmet experience at nightfall". [5] The Daily Bulletin described the food as "Mexican regional fare with some Peruvian overtones" and said: "Black, gray and white marble accents with lots of greenery and hanging straw lamps provide a chic romantic ambiance in the patio-covered area, which is quieter than the al fresco dining area." [6]
The food has also been described as "soulful Latin standards with a dash of cheeky California wellness", [7] and as "flavorful California fare". [8] The brunch menu has included Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon, a hash with pork belly, and brioche French toast. [9]
Fodor's called the restaurant "stylish". [10] [11] Business Insider said the food is "worth a try" and recommended the açaí bowl for breakfast. [8]
