    Excellent experience. Bar personnel were fun and interesting. Later the table service, food, and dining experience were excellent as well.

    Gerturde's location at the Desert Botanical Gardens makes it a nice place to meet with friends before or after a visit to the Gardens or Zoo. It is especially, convenient during the nights of the Luminaries, like the night we met friends for dinner. Gurtrude's prides itself on being environmentally friendly with locally sourced and sustainable items. Unfortunately, this doesn't always lend itself to the tastiest food. The odor of fish from the next table is an example of serving seafood that is past its prime. We chose both the burger and the lamb enchiladas. The burger was excellent; cooked to order and served on a large (slightly too thick) Brioche bun. Unfortunately, the mole on the enchilada was so thick one could not discern that it was actually lamb. The flavor of the meat was completely covered. For dessert, we shared the peach cobbler. It very mushy and lacked texture but the flavor was delicious. The wine list needs some work It is limited and very Arizona heavy which is not a bad thing except for the fact that wine from Arizona is very often a different flavor profile than the varietal of grape being used. If they are going to so heavily feature Arizona wines they might consider offering a small tasting prior to opening a bottle giving the patron a chance to expand the palette without purchasing a bottle they will not enjoy.

    We probably have dinner here 2 - 3 times a year, when we visit the Garden, the food is great, most times, usually our waiter/ waitress/ server is friendly, this time not so much, but didn't stop us from enjoying our dinner. We will return.

    Gertrudes remains a favorite location with an unmatched setting at the Desert Botanical Garden, particularly with tables on the patio. The food is consistently delicious, and features local ingredients. The menu is well labeled for food sensitivities and allergies, and the kitchen is readily willing to make adjustments as needed (with one item noted as not being possibly veg). I appreciate the expanding selection of Arizona wines to highlight the happily maturing industry in the state. Service is friendly, even at their busiest times.

    Gertrude’s had a nice menu. We sat outside in the patio and thankful we did as it was really noisy inside. Waitress was as attentive and helpful with recommendations. We shared the elote fritters to start. They were tasty. Two people ordered the Gertrude burger and it was very good. One ordered the lentil chop bowl with a side of shrimp that was tasty. We also had an order of the lamb enchiladas which I would not recommend. The mole sauce was over powering and there wasn’t much lamb.
