Acuzar has recently changed ownership and it shows. Untrained staff, chaotic delivery of food and a lack of management expertise left us disgusted with this restsurant. The waiter dropped boiling hot coffee in my husbands lap and made a sarastic comment saying that the hot water got him, too ignoring the fact that my husband could have been severely burned.

Had a reservation and came 8 mins early just to wait 40 mins to be sat. What’s the point of making a reservation almost 2 weeks in advance and not being sat at table just to wait. Was told I could eat at the bar Manager never even came by when asked to speak to him because he’s a coward

I had heard a lot of good things about Azucar, so I chose it for a recent date night with my husband. It definitely lived up to its good reputation. We were seated on the Sugar High rooftop terrace. At first I was a little concerned because it was a pretty hot night, but fortunately they had misters. The ambience was serene, boho chic, and stylish with a diverse crowd. It was a very romantic evening under the night sky. The drinks were beautiful and refreshing. We loved all the food. We will definitely be back.

Came in with only 1 party of 4 ahead of us. The whole place was empty. Order was taken, people started to pour in, and 35 min in, no food. Others were getting their food before us. Food came and my steak was as rare as can be. I had ordered it Med. My friends Med and she had ordered well done. Order was taken back and another 30 min went by. By then I was over it. Food came back and I didn’t eat it. Food should have been free by then. No excuses.

This place was delicious! Wow. Definitely a hidden gem. I would say it’s a place where you splurge yourself, the price of the food is around $40-$50 for a plate and drinks around $18. However it’s worth it! So drinks are amazing!!!!!!!! It was a group of three and we all ordered different food and drinks and were extremely satisfied. We met the manager and we was as sweet as the staff there. I will be coming back when I visit Palm Springs again.

While the service was friendly and good the food was a huge disappointment. It was bland and not cooked well. Prices much too high for less than average food. It’s too bad because we had a good experience there a few years ago. Will not be back. We would recommend the hotel but not the restaurant .
