    You can't go wrong here. The degustation menu is a wonderful way to experience a wide range of what the chef can do. The staff is wonderfully attentive and accommodating.

    Love this throwback to old Palm Springs. They bring you the menu on an easel. Escargot, pear app, lobster ravioli, lamb shank, & soufflé. Great meal, ambience, & service. Live music too.

    The food here is good. If you like fancy French cuisine it's a good choice. I've been coming here multiple times a year for the like 6 or 7 years. Menu doesn't change much, but the food is good.

    Outdoor seating is nice! Having been to five star French restaurants and paid as much for two people I can tell you: More like the Palm Springs idea of a fine French restaurant than the real thing.
