Twenty-five years ago, Vicky and Guy Laliberte cast appraising eyes on Indian Wells and liked what they saw. Successful restaurateurs in Santa Fe, New Mexico, they envisioned recreating their Land of Enchantment experience in the Land of Eternal Sun and set about doing just that. They named their expansive and airy dining house Vicky's of Santa Fe and carefully crafted the ambience of its art filled courtyard, Saltillo tile floors, aged wood plank ceilings, American Native-themed copper lamps, and a grand piano lounge for live music.
Guy and Vicky Laliberte opened the doors to their brand new restaurant at 45100 Club Drive in Indian Wells on July 9th, 1989. The tradition of this family owned restaurant continues with Marc Laliberte at the helm. At the start of this 25th Season, some upgrades to the classic adobe interiors of this nearly 9,000 square restaurant, bar and lounge were made. All new colors for the walls throughout, new carpeting's and a built in dance floor with all new furnishings for the lounge. In the main dining room, a beautiful wall of stacked stone offsets the row of new banquettes and booths.
Join us to Celebrate 25 years on Wednesday, May 21, 2014. There will be a red carpet and stand & repeat for souvenir photos as diners arrive. Dinner will be served in the 3 main dining rooms only with the original menu (5 entrees!) and (5 sides) at their original 1989 prices only. Reservations are required and expected to fill fast.
