Cute little restaurant we found after visiting Joshua tree. Staff and very nice and sweet. Order the Nashville hot wings and pepperoni pizza. Did not take long for our order to arrive. Everything was delicious! Took some delicious desserts home as well. Plan on coming back!

Amazing food! We had quite a variety, cheesy bread, tots, fried pickles, meat lovers pizza, Alfredo pizza, pesto pizza, fruit market salad, and Italian grinder and it was all amazing. You can taste the love they put into the food. Definitely worth all the hype!

Friend and I went for lunch on Memorial Day on our way back to Orange County from Joshua Tree National Park. Got there at around 12:30pm. Were seated immediately. Service was quick and friendly. I had the TNT kegs and the strawberry strudel cheesecake. Friend had the fried chicken sandwich. Everything was delicious. The kegs are pretty filling despite just being 4 in number. And the cheesecake slice is enough to share between 2 people. Total came to around 40$ including tips and taxes. The interior is also pretty well decorated, and we liked the atmosphere.

Oh wow!!! Just..try it! Small town feel and just really great food. Our server was super sweet and very professional. We both had burgers and the cauliflower bites along with fries and onion rings. The only thing that might have made it better is a side of cheese with the fried cauliflower and thinner onions in the rings, but this is just a personal preference and in no way should take away from the fact that it was all spectacular! We enjoyed every single bite! I wanted so badly to try their desserts (strawberry strudel cheesecake?! C'mon??) but I thought I was going to seriously pop!? Thank you for one of the best meals I've had in California. I'm a Midwestern girl and so far I haven't been super impressed with most eateries until today.
