    Food was awful. We were seated middle stage right up front. They should not have seating that close to the stage.

    We ordered prime Rib and it was a very generous portion. Too much of a good thing it was thought and to hard to cut. The potatoes were cold. The service was fantastic though. The noise level was unbearable with the tables around us. Loud .. to loud such that we left. The performance was nice , but just ok

    From the greeter, waitress and the entertainment it was amazing. The vibe was amazing as well. I definitely will be back. I got the meatball and it was a bit spicy for me but I couldn’t help but eat it. the wedge salad was really good.

    A wonderful dinner experience steeped in desert history of the rat pack. A one of a kind place and a must see for those who appreciate the good old days. Delicious cocktails and music to write home about.

    We sat behind the bar for dinner and it was so noisy in this area of the room that listening to the stage show was not enjoyable. Parts of the performances were definitely entertaining, but we went on a Wednesday night to hear songs of the rat pack. Instead we heard songs from Doris Day, Elvis, Sonny & Cher… There were a few Frank, Dean and Sammy songs, but not nearly enough as advertised. Very disappointing. As far as the food, the sole entree one person from our party ordered was very overcooked, chewy and tasteless. I had a bite and it was some of the worst fish I’ve ever tasted. Another person in our party had the crab cakes which they also did not like. My pesto and meatballs were ok but very over-seasoned. For the quality of the food served, it was way overpriced. We’ve been to The Purple Room before and had enjoyable times, but not this night. Don’t think we’ll be going back anytime soon.
