Two Bunch Palms - Desert Hot Springs

The food tasted very fresh and it was good. Some people in my group loved it while some said it was okay. The menu in the restaurant does not match the pictures or what is on the website. A little disappointing to see waffles on the website and no waffles on the actual menu. The server was very nice, but a few orders messed up, apologized and corrected. The view was amazing and the restaurant was clean. Overall, it was a good experience.

We had a birthday lunch for my husband and wanted something different. Essense provided just that. We walked through the tranquil grounds so get to the restaurant. We passed a meditation pool and saw people engaged in tai chi. The beautiful palm tree were inviting and cooling. The restaurant was open and calm. I had a burger with parmesan fries. My husband had the salmon. Both meals were delicious! Best yet, it was organic and flavorful. We sat by the window and had an amazing view.

Great restaurant! Loved the gluten free waffles and salads! I didn't stay at this resort but came for the lunch after a day soak at another property because the menu looked so good and wasn't disappointed! Great professional staff, have me a table outside so I could have a business call while I dined alone.

Essence Restaurant is located at Two Bunch Palms (a natural mineral spa silent yoga/ therapy retreat. The property offers natural hot springs; a place to unwind heal ...away from the grind of the city. I am quite snobbish about where I dine; I really love Essence. I love the decor, the menu, the simplicity, the service, and the entertainment. The menu dishes are highly suitable for vegans vegetarians ,and yet will not disappoint carnivores. One of the best restaurants I've been to in around Palm Desert.

This place has a great and quiet atmosphere and the food, although pricey, is great. I had the fingerling breakfast potatoes and they melted in my mouth. If you're not a healthy eater and appreciate very little salt and sugar in your dishes, then this is the place e got you. I loved it.
