    Service and attention was excellent. Food was good but may have been a bit over-priced.

    we really liked the tea party with four generations of ladies. The tea was just OK, but we really liked the food. I server was very nice, but I think she was a bit overwhelmed. maybe understaffed for the day?

    Willie’s does not disappoint! We went for Sunday brunch, enjoyed the salad nicoise and French omelette with mimosas and coffee. Service was excellent, even while understaffed, as hosts stepped up to assist the single server. They did not miss a beat! Have dined at Willie’s previously; can’t wait to try the Sunday tea next!

    Excellent meal as always. We were in a private dining room with a fireplace that seats up to 10 people. Anthony provided exceptional service. Dover sole on the prefix menu was excellent. Everyone enjoyed their meal and left very satisfied.

    We went for the Christmas Day menu, everything was perfect! Food was delicious! Staff were awesome! The owner was also there, working away to make sure everything was of a high standard. Service was paramount to the whole evening’s experience. Would definitely recommend trying this venue out, a short drive from the centre of Palm Springs, well worth it! Thank you for a lovely evening!
