I experienced great customer service at all the Maestros I’ve attended, but this one takes the cake and leaves a superb impression on what customer service felt like when I grew up. My wife and I frequently dine at steak house through the world and continue to put this on our list as number one!

Really wonderful experience and meal. First, the hotel in which the restaurant is affiliated is an old school throwback interesting spot. The Service from the minute we got to the restaurant was nothing but professional and perfect. Our server, Kristy couldn’t have been more accommodating. All of the drinks and food courses were also top-notch. We took dessert home and those matched the rest of the cuisine as being outstanding as well. Can’t wait to go back and possibly looking forward to having a family function there down the road.

Terrific waitstaff. Outstanding food; the acoustics made it sound loud and sometimes difficult to hear conversation. But we still would go back. They also had outdoor seating. A beautiful setting in a beautiful JW Marriott.

This was absolutely an incredible experience. Fantastic ambiance outside with optics galore and live music next to us with the fantastic Loree. The food was timely, a perfect temperature and the Swordfish and Tenderloin Stroganoff were delicious. The dessert was equally amazing as well with a Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble… one of the best we’ve ever had. Strongly recommend Jillian’s!

Excellent cocktails reasonably priced including wine and some great dishes not found at other restaurants in the desert. The steak tartare and calamari steaks were to die for.
