Johnny Costa's Ristorante Menu Prices at 440 S Palm Canyon Dr, Palm Springs, CA 92262

Veteran Neapolitan-Italian destination serving thin-crust pizzas, seafood & pasta in cozy surrounds.

From the classic Italian music to the candlelit tables, the nostalgic atmosphere at Johnny Costa’s Ristorante feels like traveling back to mid-century times. It’s no wonder Frank Sinatra was once a regular at this fine Italian restaurant, where his favorite juicy steak & clam dish are named in his honor. The Costa family continue the legacy of late chef-owner Johnny Costa, who was pals with Sinatra when he moved to Hollywood from New York in the 1960s, a decade later served as the singer’s personal chef at his desert home. Costa’s pedigree lives on in his legendary recipes, including his veal saltimbocca & classic cioppino. Voted Best Italian by Palm Springs Life Readers!
