Aquifer65 — Restaurant in Palm Desert

The highlight was Vida Mezcal – absolutely amazing! The drinks were top-notch and crafted with real care. If the service had matched the quality of the cocktails, this could’ve been a great experience.

The two entertainers were fantastic and played a wide range of rock and roll and country hits. The customer service and overall experience were simply therapeutic. Highly...
