The perfect place for a pre-coachella breakfast! This place was originally my choice for convenience but I'm so glad I stopped and I'll probably be back again tomorrow. Besides great food and cocktails, my service was AMAZING. Ruben was so kind and friendly, which is a huge plus for a solo diner. He even gave great recommendations and made sure I knew more about the area. Thanks Ruben for making my first coachella morning great.

We sat outside for lunch. They have a good menu and were willing to accommodate my wife who doesn't eat gluten. And the food was tasty!

Very delicious eggs benedict, lovely crispy English muffin. However, I asked before ordering the orange ricotta pancakes whether the syrup was real maple syrup (rather than artificial or pancake syrup) and the server responded enthusiastically that it was. But the pancakes came out with what was clearly a corn syrup based syrup based on flavor and viscosity. I would have ordered something else if they were truthful about the syrup (or paid extra for real syrup if it was available), so it was a very disappointing end to the meal.

Darn good food but we unfortunately had less than decent service. I'll give it another chance because the food was yummy and we were seated quickly. But the service was weak. Forgot water and drinks, like 3 times after saying it was coming and taking water to tables next to us! It was actually funny but not cool

Felt like a typical brunch place. They tried to differentiate themselves by tweaking the ingredients to make it different which works out in their favor.Their French toast was different but in a good way

Good lunch today at Grand Central. Menu has lots of different offerings; I've noticed on different occasions they have a steady crowd but usually aren't too busy.Cute sidewalk cafe, half outside and the other half inside. Host person was friendly and helpful, they seated us, got our beverages and took our order. After that we seemed to be handed off to a different wait person, and the last part of the meal we were kinda forgotten.I had the seared tuna salad, that was mostly mixed cabbages with a very lite vinaigrette dressing. It was good, and there was a good amount of tuna, but the tuna had been seared and left to sit to room temperature or it had been seared ahead of time. Would of expected it to be a little warm on the outside at least. Also, they served it on a stone slate, a little odd to me. I know seared tuna is an sushi kinda thing, but this was a salad, should'da been in a bowl. Companion had the turkey reuben sandwich, they said was very good. I liked that they brought bottles of iced tea to pour in my glass, so I didn't have to keep asking for refills.Overall not bad, I'll go back. Service was good but not attentive. Food was overall good and it's a cute little cafe located right in the middle of Palm Springs on the Plaza.Parking: There is a small parking lot in front that serves several businesses, (always full). Street parking is scarce. Free parking garage one block south.

We came with a bachelorette party on Saturday morning. I think our server was hungover. He spilled champagne on the table when delivering mimosas which wasn’t a huge issue, but then he delivered another set later to a different girl and forgot most of the juice in the cups. They looked so light compared to the others of the same flavor. The mimosas were basically champagne with a waft of flavor, barely any juice. The food was Okay except the pancakes were great. And then we had ordered a cinnamon bun and it came much later because the waiter forgot. When it arrived it was yummy too but everyone was full at that point. The owner or manager did notice I wasn’t drinking the mango mimosa. He did ask if it’s because it wasn’t good and I said yes, so he replaced it with a different flavor. That was very kind. I wouldn’t come back here but it was okay.

Quaint place in Palm Springs, beautiful decor, I opted to sit out in the patio due to the beautiful weather. I ordered the chilaquiles with grilled chicken sunny side eggs and avocado. The tomatillo sauce was absolutely perfect, all the flavors were delicious. I accompanied it with an earl grey tea. Lots of food and for a reasonable price. Def check them out!

The sugar waffles with fruit and dulce de leche was amazing! I added a side of eggs for $4 and they were fantastic too! Great service and lovely patio seating.Parking: Parking is pretty limited but free if you are lucky to find one. We walked since it was close to our hotel.

Pretty good food and great ease of location! The seating is pretty metal, haha.I had a turkey pot pie, which was delicious but didn't exactly feel like a pie. It seems a bit more like a piece of crust on a bed of sauce and turkey meat with veggies.Parking was a bit troublesome but, it was late evening on the first evening of a weekend so it was expected ^^
