    Seems to be a popular hot spot in Palm Springs. 5 years living here and hadn't been. We took two out of town visiting friends there for dinner. Six of us total and the bill was $260 for appetizers, drinks, and desserts. We felt that was very reasonable. Our server smiled and bantered with us and was attentive. The food was very good, especially the prime rib on the Saturday night we were there, as their Saturday special. The restaurant is that nice combination a feeling upscale without too much formality and pretentiousness.

    Great selection of well prepared food. Cheese Quesadilla, though, was very short on cheese. Service is always friendly and professional. Nice inside and outside.
