We had a very good meal. The salmon tacos were amazing. We enjoyed a nice visit with friends over a leisurely lunch while sitting in the shade of a cabana - how perfect. We must do this again - and more often.

Our waitress was great. She made recommendations which we took up the offer. They are running a Summer Special for $33/person. It was delicious. There are 2 entrees to choose from so we ordered one of each. Salmon and Spaghetti w/ asparagus, heirloom tomatoes. For starters they served us Gazpacho, then the entree and a delicious dessert. Great value!!! The next morning we went for breakfast. They have the best eggs Benedict which I ordered. My husband had the 2 eggs, Apple sausage, hash browns and sour dough toast which he liked.

Great brunch at Gigi’s in Palm Springs! I really enjoyed the Huevos Rancheros with steak — hearty and delicious. A friend had the Chilaquiles and gave them a big thumbs up. The Avocado Margarita was surprisingly refreshing, and the Pornstar Paloma was a fun, tropical twist. Laid-back atmosphere with a colorful, tropical setup — perfect for a sunny Palm Springs day.
