Making sure the pup was the real VIP of course! Choose from the sexy and stylish dining room and lounge facing the gorgeous San Jacinto mountains, dine in the open-air atrium, or enjoy the picturesque vacation vibes at the cabana bar and patio.

Very tasty, great service, interesting surroundings. Seated in the larger/central room, therefore unexpectedly loud. Perhaps would’ve been better if seated in one of the side/smaller rooms.
