La Copine

"Minimalist desert style meets thoughtful and creative dishes at this stylish fine dining hot spot. La Copine hits all the right notes with its sun-bathed interior and seasonal dishes. The seasonal menu includes an eclectic array of cuisine, which can include items like rillettes de canard, beets and burrata, creamy grits, and warm beignets. Only open Thursday through Sunday, La Copine is very popular and only offers a handful of reservations booked via text message — but it’s worth waiting for a table. (Note: La Copine is closed for the first two weeks of January)" - Eater Staff

"Even by Joshua Tree standards, La Copine is in the middle of nowhere. However, this daytime cafe (open 11am-4pm) serves our favorite food in the high desert and is worth the two-hour drive into no man’s land. The constantly-changing menu is on the smaller side, but with options like artichoke toast, rockfish ceviche, and a lamb burger, everyone in your group is going to find something they love. The bright, open space is an ideal hangout spot after you’ve immersed yourself in The Integratron sound bath in nearby Landers." - brant cox, garrett snyder

"La Copine serves vibrant dishes such as Jidori chicken liver pate, wagyu beef steak sandwich, and salade Lyonnaise. It's a year-round destination for low-intervention wines and innovative food." - Eater Staff
