Beautiful night at the Desert Botanicals after a lovely rain only to be extra delighted by our dinner at Gertrudes. Excellent waiter and delicious interesting food-highly recommend. We will be sure to eat there again on our next visit to the Gardens.
Service was wonderful. The food was good but a bit pricey. We sat on the patio as in-door dining room was VERY noisy and smell very fishy. The patio setting was beautiful and not as noisy - easier to carry a conversation without screaming. Overall I would recommend dining at Gertrude's.
Great meal with visiting family. Beautifully plated and delicious. Very nice service. Appreciated the solicitous waiter.

Patio Café is a lovely restaurant with a beautiful outdoor patio, perfect for a special occasion. The menu offers a variety of delicious dishes, including the cauliflower and shisito appetizer, rice noodles, and lentil bowl. Customers have enjoyed the chilled soup, elote fritter appetizer, and the American breakfast and steak Benedict dishes. The staff provides wonderful and prompt service, making for a great dining experience, although they may need additional staff during busy periods. Some customers have noted that the front of the house was not managed well, as they turned away many people despite several empty tables. The patio area, surrounded by plants, can get warm in the summer, but it's well-covered and breezy, making it a nice spot for a meal. The restaurant is a good go-to when enjoying an evening at the nearby Desert Botanical Garden. The menu features high-quality food choices at reasonable prices, though a bit on the higher side. Overall, Patio Café offers a pleasant dining experience with good food and service, and guests are encouraged to try the botanical rosebud gin drink.
