“The heart of Rancho Mirage”
You can't beat the friendliness here. Someone greets you at the door, and the bartender makes the best martinis in town. The waitstaff is both professional and fun, taking care of your every need. The food is excellent and creative.

“Our Auxiliary Kitchen”
This is our top spot in the valley. From the moment you arrive, the staff treats you like family. Whether it's the host at the door, the bartender (voted best in the valley), or the great servers (one is our favorite), they all work to make your evening perfect. Some menu favorites: tuna tartar, shrimp and scallops, chicken balsamico, veal meatloaf, and blue cheese filet mignon. For dessert, the chocolate cake can feed four!
