Oscars was once a gold standard in the drag space in Palm Springs. Now this brunch is way overpriced and very underwhelming. The saving grace is the service staff- they were all friendly, helpful and professional. The admittance fee is $40-$50, which compared to the rest of the local market, is pretty steep, especially considering it only covers your entry. The brunch menu advertised online is not what was offered on-site. The menu offering had about 4 main entrees and just breakfast sides. Mimosas tasted more like a orange juice wishing to be champagne. We mentioned some of grievances to the manager, Drew- including how incredibly hot it was in one section of the front row and how we were into the third act and still had not received our singles to tip the queens. While Drew heard our concerns, he stated that the show has been overbooked so they ran out of singles before the show started (I've been to about 40-50 drag shows around the world- including Oscars in early 2023- and I've never experienced this). He also looked around at the fans on stage that were turned towards mostly the center of the restaurant and he didn't seem to think of another solution. So, we left way earlier than planned to escape the swampy restaurant environment and the second hand embarrassment of the awkward run of show. I'm not sure if management has changed or they were just so overbooked and overcrowded they were dealing with unusual issues, but had this been my first drag experience, I would not return. I also hope the local queens can ban together and demand more from Oscar's- the crowd energy was flat and the hostess, despite her best efforts, faced mobility issues and struggled to keep the crowd entertained and engaged. I've never seen so many queens perform without getting tipped handsomely- this was either a symptom of the lackluster host, guests feels duped for such a high admittance fee or again, perhaps they had run out of singles.

I was just walking by and wanted to check out the menu when I was greeted with the host who pulled menus for us to sit and when we got inside there was an awful sewage smell. We tried to push through but needless to say, our appetite was gone.

We still felt bad since there was
Noone else in the entire place and decided to order two drinks. Our margaritas took 20 minutes to come and had no ice, it cost 43 dollars for two margaritas. Which was insane.
Won’t return. Not interested in a snappy reply just wanting to warn other potential consumers.

We had a minor issue and the manager Dan was super understanding and fixed everything for us. Will definitely return based on the great service.

Came here with some friends ready for a good time, the show itself was not terrible but not as good as before. The food was terrible, they basically messed up literally every thing we asked for. We had a friend with serious dietary restrictions who got laughed at and ignored and ended up walking out. This is a Mexican or Cuban style brunch place that doesn't have salsa or tortillas. When we questioned why none of our dishes that were supposed to come with salsa came with salsa, they apologized and brought us one cocktail sauce. When informed that cocktail sauce is not salsa, they were confused. I don't even understand why they have cocktail sauce because there wasn't anything on the menu that required cocktail sauce.

The food is incredibly overpriced and I live in the most overpriced area of LA so I'm used to terrible pricing. Normal restaurants spend about 1/3 of their budget on food, this restaurant is more like 1/6. The quality of the food was subpar.

I think worst of all is that they sell tickets for indoor which we purchased but they don't have any indoor tables so everybody is forced to sit outside many people baking in the Sun. There are no misters or any other moving air but never fear in the middle of the show they will offer you for the low price of $20 a fan, and they will definitely run out of those before they get around to your table.

It seems like everything about this place is just a cash grab and while it might have been good before, I would not recommend this to anybody at this time.
