    We love this restaurant. We eat here every time we visit Palm Springs. Our server was awesome!!!!! The food was outstanding and as always full of flavor. I had the strawberry fields salad with Salmon. The salmon was cooked to perfection. My husband had the Santa Fe Panini with fries and coleslaw. My husband loved his meal too. We will definitely be back.
