This Valentine’s Day set menu and dining experience was outstanding. We had booked this special event almost 6 weeks ago, letting staff know it was my husband’s birthday as well. Our 530pm Reservations pm were prompt As a nod to the 💜 Day the Hostess presented each lady diner with a long stemmed red rose. Our table was the premier corner table on the 2nd level with a spectacular view of the Coachella Valley. The Menu offered Courses with varied options . Absolutely tender steak filet and sumptuous Grilled Salmon. Service top notch - attentive yet discreet. An evening for the Memory book Attentive yet discreet. Elegant ambience. An evening for the memory book !!!

Great view, very good service but, food was a challenge for them. First, they messed up my husbands order & had to re-make his black bean burger sandwich and, although my cavatappi Mac & cheese w/ BBQ pulled pork was tasty, half of the pulled pork was large hunks of fat. The waiter did offer to bring another dish but, we already had been waiting on my husbands food and didn’t want to wait any longer. But, it definitely was a beautiful view to dine over.
