    They had 2 different types of music playing at the same time, inside the restaurant and outside near the pool. Very distracting. Music outside was too loud.

    Lovely outdoor space with great service and even live music under the stars! The menu seemed a bit more limited than last year, but overall our group enjoyed the meal.

    Incredible night on all fronts - for those coming from out of town - relax, take a breathe, and be nice to your server. Don’t bring your stress to our valley. It’s the time for you to enjoy yourself.

    We brought out of town visitors for outdoor dining on Sunday evening. I ordered the spicy grilled cauliflower appetizer - always a favorite. My friend found the chef special scallops particularly delicious. We enjoy the view of the golf course and mountains. This is one of our favorite places for outdoor dining.
