    It was so busy that the team couldn’t keep up with the crowd. But the food was good and the bartenders were excellent. I liked the way the food arrived via rolling carts. The server team is surely aware of how busy it is, but they chat at tables rather than excuse themselves to complete service at other tables. Frustrating to be sure. Attractive enough space. Recommend asking them for an order of garlic bread - not on the menu but excellent

    So disappointing. We normally eat at the Palm Desert location and it is much better. First the menu on the website hasn’t been updated so they didn’t have what I wanted. The chicken parm had no taste and my husband’s pasta was overcooked. Will not eat at this location again.

    The wait staff was attentive and informative. We were greeted nicely at the door. Our table was very nice with a view out the window. The appetizer and entrees were delicious and plenty in each portion. I would go back again in the future.

    Although the food was fresh and hot it had a very average flavor profile and was actually quite bland. With so many dining options in Palm Springs, I am in no hurry to come back.

    Wonderful service beginning from the host to the server and food runners. The margarita pizza, lasagna, and pasta with garlic oil were all hits at the table and the espresso martini was just right. One of my favorite go to restaurants in Palm Springs!
