    With out a doubt, one of the finest dining experiences in the greater Palm Desert area. From the moment we arrived until we departed was simply wonderful. The entire staff, service, fabulous food and exquisite deserts left us speechless. An absolute pleasure, so much so, we made another reservation for next week.

    Our FAVE spot for a romantic dinner on the patio. Service and food are always perfection. Treated like royalty. We are sad we have to wait for it to reopen in the Fall!

    The food is always wonderful. It is by far the top fine dining restaurant in the desert. Our server, Roman, always enhances our experience. The decor and atmosphere make you feel like you are dining in someone’s home. Just an amazing dining experience.

    Great, fast service, and the patio area is gorgeous. The rib eye steak special was delicious. I wish they would drop the corn and beetroot from the sides that are a sample size and just increase the potato gratin and brocillini portion. The prices are also very high but the plate sizes are all big so you do get what you pay for. Overall, we had a great experience and would come back for special occasions.
