My husband isn’t a foodie, so when he says the burger was a 10/10, I take that seriously. Big on flavor and quality, and genuinely filling. The happy hour mini nachos with carne asada were a hit, and the guacamole never misses. Service was fast and efficient, and parking right out front made it an easy, stress-free stop. Would absolutely return.

Absolutely delicious. This was our first stop in Palm Springs and we were not disappointed! The taco special on Thursday is a great deal. My wife and I tried 5 different tacos between us and we loved them all. The gluten free churros were a great way to finish off the meal!

This place looked good on reviews but I am picky about tacos. The tacos here are average. They don’t have a lot of flavor. We tried fish, chicken and steak. All average. The hotel that the restaurant is in is off of a Main Street not close to other restaurants. There are so many better places. Eat at your own risk.

It is good food and not too expensive. Very easy if you are staying at the Saguaro. The staff is very friendly and I really appreciate that.

This restaurant was my favorite thing about the hotel. We snacked by the pool all day and had other meals there. Everything was delicious! We got mini chorizo quesadillas, fish tacos, carne asada fries, wings and a cheese quesadilla. Everything was delicious! Literally would come back to this hotel just for the food.

Quick service, we were specifically in the cantina ordered nachos which were the best nachos I’ve had in a long time! Everything tasted fresh. Drinks are very pretty and delish as well! Hugo was SUPER friendly and his service was A1, made us feel extremely welcomed. They also have board games which is a bonus!

I was wondering with the reviews here but the food was actually so good! And the atmosphere is such a vibe. Definitely fun for a more relaxed casual girls dinner. Especially if you aren’t going out after, as it’s not on the strip to go out but such a great spot for the going home early house party but wanting the cool dinner vibes

Best drag brunch ever! The queens were extremely talented and put on a fabulous show! Our bachelor had a blast! Food was good! I inhaled my burrito and was still hungry after. Order extra verde sauce! And thank god for the churros with the chocolate dripping! Perfect dosage of sweetness!
Oh and did I forget to say bottomless mimosas! Yes baby!
Bring your dollar bills for tipping the queens but worst case scenario, they take Venmo!

Great food for all meals including breakfast. Delicious salsa & margaritas. Valeria was so attentive and kind. The restaurant is gorgeous with lots of seating options included heated outdoor seating with gorgeous view of the colorful decor & palm trees.
