    It was pretty and the food was good but none of us liked the tram ride up to the top. Packed like sardines. Other people having panic attacks, babies crying etc.

    My husband and I have dined at Peaks before and loved the experience. We took our family back for Christmas dinner and were very disappointed in the quality of the food. We love the Tramway experience but, we Weill skip the dinner next time.

    The view from this restaurant are impressive. The food we've tried is good, but a bit pricey. The service is good but always seems rushed. The cocktails, with-out a doubt, are the most we've EVER paid anywhere, anytime! Absolutely ridiculously over priced. Frank at the bar is the best!

    Horrible restaurant in a great location. You pay $15 to park and good money to take the tram ride up so the thought is to make good and eat at the fancy restaurant. You would be better off at the cafe or just viewing it all from the observation deck. For the price of food, it is bad. Not okay, but chain restaurant quality. 1) No bread. 2) Service was good, we even delayed between apps and main courses.. but it all came out together. No manager to apologize, except the server. Not expecting anything to be comped but it all does feel rushed and intentional. 3) Salad was good. The rest of the food is bad, and they delivered it all at once.. 4) View is okay, but you would be better off standing at the many observation decks and enjoying a better high end meal in palm springs.

    Another Vegetarian and/or Vegan option would be nice. Specialty Drinks a bit pricey. Large portions and food tasty especially Strawberry Baby Greens salad with Salmon.

    Very small dining area, but the view is fantastic. Nathan was a very attentive server. Burger was over cooked and a little short on Bleu cheese, but overall, we enjoyed our visit.
