So excited for this innovative chefs restaurant to be here in the desert! The cocktails are great, much like Ember and Rye they have a lovely twist. The ambience for lunch was lovely , great scenery and even tho filled with quite a few louder than normal golfers fresh off the course it was a good sound! Food was great , had one little glitch but they fixed it immediately. Of course they are getting used to the menu and the prep for some sophisticated dishes , so I’m sure they will work out the kinks! The egg rolls and ahi tuna were delious and service staff was very kind and always ready to assist ! Great spot for lunch , next time we will try it for dinner service !! Thanks Richard 🩷

The food was very good. I ordered the chips with guacamole and salsa as an appetizer for the table, then the tuna poke bowl for my main course. Both were delicious! The chips were freshly made--thin and crisp, and the guac was very tasty, plus; the salsa was different than any I'd had before, but excellent. The tuna poke bowl was plentiful and very good. I'll definitely be returning. The only 'negatives' were that I feel the cocktails were overpriced and the service was slow.

Restaurant just opened, so we were prepared for a few glitches. Computer problems with food orders delayed some service. Food was good, not great. Menu selections were interesting. There was NO nonalcoholic beer or wine available! Only some fancy mocktails! Can't believe that guys/gals coming off the golf course will be happy with that!

The remodel is absolutely stunning. It was a beautiful evening to sit on the patio and enjoy the views. We enjoyed the Vegetarian Tagine, the ahi poke bowl and the steak frites. Everything was delicious and seasoned perfectly. Fries were so good ! Our server Michelle was attentive and very professional and enhanced our experience. The drinks are another fun experience and tasty! We will be back !
