   Food good but service was poor due to staffing issues. Indoor table was very noisy. We would have prey outside, but the misters weren’t off though it was 92 degrees. Advance notification my husband’s 100 birthday was not recognized. It was disappointing all around. We’ve had good experiences here before which is why we chose the take our rather for this very special occasion.

   The food and view are always great! Service is always lacking. Our waiter was there to get our drinks & then to give us the check, that’s it. I feel if Escena had better service or management it would always be a 5 stars . Service does matter!!

   Great food but terrible service. Wait staff was borderline rude and not attentive at all. We went for Mother's Day brunch and they turned what should have been a nice celebration into an annoying experience.

   It is one of our regular stops for food and drinks. Always a good value for what you get. And the views are amazing.

   We decided to sit at the bar instead of outside due to the heat. The bartender made me a perfect bloody Mary with bacon, olive and a pickle. Soooo delicious. I had the eggs Benedict with short ribs instead of Canadian bacon (no offense Canada) it was outstanding. My husband had the fried chicken sandwich with waffle fries and thought it was delicious. 5 out of 5 stars for food, service and ambience. 👍🏾

   We choose to eat here and bring guests since it's in such a super location with fabulous views of the golf course, ponds, and the San Jacinto mountains. Food is one of the best places for breakfast, lunch or dinner in Palm Springs. Service is always attentive. Great place to go to.
