Gertrude's, at the Desert Botanical Gardens, is a wonderful restaurant, set amid the beautiful desert scenery. It is located next to the gift shop, near the entrance. Me and a friend visited Gertrude's on Monday night, while at the gardens to see the new Chihuly sculptures. The food was fantastic. Our waitress was wonderful. We split a bottle of red wine ($30), and each ordered the Green Chile Pork stew ($11). We split the Salmon salad ($18), and also split the Tequila Citrus Cheesecake ($8). The prices are mid-range - not too expensive, but not cheap, either. The food was all very fresh and delicious. I plan to make Gertrude's a regular stop on my visit to the Gardens. We had a wonderful time exploring the gardens to see the magnificent Chihuly sculptures - Gertrude's was part of that wonderful experience.
