This Restaurant/Night Club/Bistro has been around since 1965 . . . that's a heck of a long time for an establishment to remain open anywhere, much less in the desert here.  Current owners and hosts Kevin and Dodi Henry are making sure that the doors continue to stay open and that people can continue to partake of their wonderful food, vibrant ambiance, live entertainment and great service.
