From its earliest days, La Quinta Resort & Club has been known for exceptional dining and gracious service. In the 1920s, resort founder Walter H. Morgan created a retreat for his high-society friends, who were rumored to turn orange juice into Citrus Blossoms with a discreet splash of gin and vermouth during Prohibition.
Today, that spirit lives on at Twenty6, a modern American bistro named for the year the resort opened. Located just off the bougainvillea-lined entrance, the art deco–inspired restaurant offers chef-crafted cuisine that highlights seasonal ingredients at their peak.
Cozy up at the bar to watch how the magic happens.
Morning light fills the outdoor patio, making breakfast and brunch a bright and welcoming affair. Guests can enjoy fun twists on eggs Benedict, classic huevos rancheros, the fluffy veggie-filled super green omelet, decadent French toast with fresh berries, and signature “bloody” breakfast cocktails.
In the evening, the atmosphere shifts to a relaxed elegance with soft lighting, ideal for sharing elevated comfort dishes. The dinner menu features flatbreads, sandwiches, and classic entrées with a contemporary flair. Vegan selections draw on Mediterranean flavors, and the bar serves both cocktails and imaginative mocktails, including the Desert Baya and Prickly Pear Soda.
Sports fans can watch games on flat-screen TVs at the bar while enjoying a burger-and-beer pairing. Whether you are starting your day, enjoying a leisurely lunch, or winding down over dinner, every visit to Twenty6 offers fresh flavors, thoughtful service, and an enduring culinary tradition.
Seasonal ingredients shine on each plate.
