    There were 2 very noisy small dogs barking every time someone walked by. Very distracting and difficult to visit. Our server was very good!

    Food was such a great value for brunch. Can’t beat $10 for 3 mimosas! $30 for yummy 3-course brunch. The service was great and the atmosphere was SO FUN. Such a great vibe and beautiful restaurant. I will come back next time I vacation in Palm Springs for sure!

    Had never tried this spot but it’s in such great spot with a good patio so we wanted to give it a go. We WON’T be going back. Food was terribly subpar. They had a Brunch “deal” with 3 courses. We did that and it was a weird combination of things on the menu for Brunch we felt. We both had the Traditional Benedict and it was really bad, no flavor and seemed not fresh at all. Definitely pre-made frozen tasting. One of us had the Calamari appetizer had part of our Brunch 3 courses and he found a hair on his plate. I had the Chocolate Cake as the dessert on my Brunch deal and it was frozen still and found some sort of plastic or stick of something inside the cake. NOT GOOD. We wanted to love this spot on it its location but it will not be on our list again. Do better guys!

    More of a tourist attraction than a quality restaurant. Food was just okay and pricey for the offerings. Service was good but a little spotty.

    We were seated and within minutes, received water for our table. No server arrived. We were not offered a drink. Our menus were clearly visible on the table and no one came to take our order or acknowledge us. We got up and left without placing an order after 15 minutes of waiting. Very disappointed.
