    This was such a terrific find, and the highlight of our trip. The food was spectacular, focused, and perfectly balanced. The prawn cocktail, while pricey, was the best I've ever had and would happily pay to have again. Truly a symphony of flavor. The ambience is everything you want it to be and the service is friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to come back again some day!

    Food was nothing special, but great vibes. It’s not worth the 35 minute drive if you’re staying downtown in Palm Springs.

    The food was very overpriced for the value and taste. I ordered the halibut and it tasted like dishwasher soap and was supposed to come with two vegetable sides but literally barely had anything with it. My partner had the mushroom pasta which was good. We also had the oysters which were just really overpriced for the quality. Our service was the worst part. We came from out of town for a birthday dinner and were excited to eat here and celebrate, but our server left our table high the whole dinner and dry so we had to order twice through the hostess. He was snappy with us and it was just an unpleasant dinner. Wish we would have gone somewhere else.

    EXCELLENT!! The ambiance was lovely and a bit of old Palm Springs in Palm Desert which is a win for us from La Quinta. Loved the indoor/outdoor feel and ambiance but will full air conditioning inside the restaurant! A very unique and special place that harkens back to classic PS dining with the pool in view, amazing cocktails, and outstanding and varied food selections. Add a little Martyn Lawrence Bullard deisgn with amazing pinks, greens and blacks with an oh so stylish setting and you have the perfect mix of an elevated but relaxed dining experience. Perfection and my new favorite spot that will become one of our favorites in the years to come. -Deana McGraw (ghost writer for John McGraw)

    What a joy, what a find! Boutique, upscale Moroccan themed and a hip, tony feel in a space with young diners, lots of energy! A fellow diner recommended the lamb porterhouse— and best lamb ever, and not too “lamby,” just loads of rich flavor. Try the Ruby Sipper for a new spin on a bourbon cocktail. Makes you want to book The Sands hotel for a weekend just to keep drinking it all in!

    The decor is amazing. They did an amazing job with all the little details, down to custom napkins in the bathroom and plates on the tables. The drinks were all really good and the service was amazing. Seems like a young trendy place, as there were a couple bachelorette parties there. The food was all good, I probably wouldn’t order the charcuterie boards again because I’ve had better ones elsewhere but there wasn’t really anything wrong with them, just a little small and not the best I’ve had. I would definitely go back.

    Food was great but service was very slow. About 45 from when we placed our order for our main dish. When we inquired about our food our server insisted it had not been that long. Which was an odd response and there was no apology. I will add that I was there six months prior and had very slow service as well. Very cute place but I think it's become too "cool for school".

    It was ok! The serve was upselling aggressively, there was flys flying around, we ordered a steak medium and it came out rare. Over priced and took awhile for the server to come by to get the check.

    Simple and Perfect. Took my mom and a friend here for a weekend Mom’s Day brunch. Tables in the restaurant look out over the retro pool. The atmosphere is classic and vintage Palm Springs chic. We all ordered variations of benedict specials, served with fresh and simply dressed greens. Delicious food, served simply. I can say that I have not had a restaurant egg more perfectly poached…ever. Service was excellent. Based on our brunch experience, five stars for food, atmosphere, service.

    Service was lackluster. Asked us to order appetizers and meals together so chef could space them and then it was almost 50 mins between the two courses. Everyone had a job and nobody seemed to really help anyone out if it wasn’t their role. I had no water from the time my meal was placed until they asked if we wanted desert and only got more because I finally found someone to ask for more. The food was good, portions are fairly small for the price and there are no additional side offerings so the salmon on a small bed of greens is all you get. We came here to celebrate a 10 year anniversary and they didn’t acknowledge that in any way. Cute spot but won’t go back

    Started out great. But watched our drinks sit at the bar and get warm. Artisan cheese was fantastic. Ordered another drink and watched our waitress talk to a regular with a dog. My drink sat on the bar for more than 5 minutes. Had to get another server to bring it over. Dinner took forever and was not warm. Wasn't impressed

    We tried the brunch menu. Not very crowded at 8:30AM, so perhaps a later crowd for more of the brunch style items on the menu. Service was a bit slow for the number of people in the restaurant (maybe 3 tables), but worth the wait, as both items we ordered were excellent. Really cute atmosphere inside and out. An experience meal. Lucky for people staying there to have such a nice spot right on property facing the pool. We would go back again.
