Words of Love

“I may have found the perfect brunch spot. It combines my two favorites - French and Asian. Everything was amazing. We had the bento box, eggs Benedict any the Quiche was so amazing we got 2 of them. That staff is super attentive and the owner is so sweet. No wonder this place has the highest rating in Palm Springs. And on top of it all the courtyard is quaint. I kind of don’t wanna leave - might just spent my day with my bottle of champagne.”

Tony Ehrbar

“We were visiting Palm Springs from Houston , TX. We enjoyed 2 wonderful meals at French Miso Cafe. The food is unforgettable! You can tell much love goes into their food and restaurant. Not only is the food amazing but the restaurant atmosphere is very special! I would return to Palm Springs just to eat at this wonderful restaurant. Truly a gem!”

Belinda Zagars
