What customers say?

“ While staying at Casa del Zorro in Borrego Springs we had dinner at the Fox Bistro. Delicious drinks prepared by Jerry, the bartender started us off. I had the wedge salad, one of the best I’ve eaten. Lots of bacon, blue cheese and drizzle of balsamic vinegar on top of the dressing. The Chilean sea bass was moist, firm and impressively presented atop expertly done risotto with a citrus sauce complimenting the dish. A bottle of Napa Valley Rutherford Vintners Cab paired well even with fish. Given the heavy rain and flood warnings today, they were prepared to handle the crowd of visitors and locals that visited this evening. Thank you! ”

“ Good but not amazing. For the remote location, above average. Steak was tasty. Chocolate cake was a highlight. ”

“ History of this amazing place warrants a beautiful entry while walking into the lobby and dining area. Missing . A tale and story board of the history, telling of the souls who walked prior who had a part in shaping that story. Perhaps historic pictures on the walls. All of that is missing. This resort deserves its story be told and rich history appreciated. 2024 Historical Site was noted. ”

“ Food is very good and a bit pricey. Limited options at lunch. Plenty of seating inside and out. On site parking. Staff were quick, friendly and accommodating. Worth a stop. ”

“ I have had some amazing dishes (pork chop) and not so amazing (chicken Oscar). Have been here many times and will keep coming back. Great resort all around! The caprese salad had a great presentation although the tomatoes were lacking in flavor a bit. The mushroom risotto is excellent! ”

“ Went to brunch on Saturday morning as they are only open for brunch Friday through Sunday. It was a cozy vibe getting to sit outside on a beautiful day. Quick to take order and bring coloring sheets for kids which was nice. Food was good and portions are fair. Kids menu items are around $10 while regular menu items are around $20 for brunch. Would go back again! ”

“ Bed short ribs were solid. Tasty fine-ish dining stop in a desert oasis, perhaps not worth the trip on its own, but solid for resort dining and for sure the best fine dining in a 40 mile radius. Meals were classic standards with table service that tries to please vs tries your patience. The Cambozola Cheese plate will not win novelty points from the Instagram crowd, but we finished it off and would do again. Minestrone was served warm (w sausage? no pasta) was pleasant, but the hot rolls w butter were a bigger hit at our table. Meatloaf, Beef short ribs, Mushroom risotto, and stuffed shell pasta were served up and had no complaints and came with pretty presentations. Prices were very reasonable. ”
