I really wanted to like this place. When the food came out it was presented well, but we all found that it was lukewarm to cold.

This place has been here for 5 yrs and I didn’t even know it. They have a beautiful art display room with paintings from local artists. Oh, and BTW, way, the food is delicious, and you can order a flight of mimosas. The setup of the restaurant and the service was top-notch. It’s also in the dead center of downtown Palm Springs. FREE PARKING lot for only 2 hours if you can get there early, and it’s only a 5 min walk to the Marilyn Monroe statue

Service was amazing. All staff members I interacted with were pleasant and professional. The food was delicious, and so were the drinks! It was busy when I went, so we waited a while for the food to come out. It was a reasonable wait considering how packed the restaurant was. I enjoyed the vibe as well. The music wasn’t too loud, but the people at the table next to me were pretty loud. They had a larger party, so that’s understandable. If you’re sensitive to loud noises, try to get a seat outside if the restaurant is busy.

Grand Central is delicious and absolutely so cute inside! Absolutely love the book vibe and art gallery. So much to see in here. Have to say, I hate their chairs though! Please GC, order new chairs, they are uncomfortable. I know theyve received complaints about these before. I ordered the mushroom toast and it was delightful, and I ate every morself of it. It has a poached egg rolled in panko bread crumbs, oh my, malea you wanna smack yo lips its so good! The bloody mary was good, naturally spicy. Service was a bit slow, even though they weren’t busy. Even with that, all the staff were so nice. Even with the chair issue, I loved the food so much, it’s my new fave breakfast spot in PS.

Wanting to try somewhere new for dinner, we made a reservation at Grand Central. We were promptly greeted and seated. The service was very friendly and professional. My partner ordered the chicken milenese and I ordered the salmon. The food was just okay, nothing special. Perhaps we just ordered the wrong things, but we expected better for the price. We enjoyed the atmosphere and our wine. The music playing was top 40 radio hits and not great dinner music.

The food is phenomenal, and the service is exceptional. The owners take the time to come out and talk with their patrons very very nice restaurant.

This place is located in the center of downtown PS so very crowded. Got sat right away but didn’t get any service until roughly 10 or 15 minutes later. Took a while for everything to arrive. I ordered a BLT with no egg and my significant other ordered GC Burger, lobster bisque. Everything was just okay not won’t the wait.
