Everything was great. It’s definitely a place I recommend. We were a large group, and the service was excellent. The food, the attention, the atmosphere—everything was amazing. We had an incredible time.

We love this restaurant - food is great and the service excellent. We have sat inside in the main dining room, the bar and even outside. Appetizers like the cauliflower are scrumptious. Try the chicken for a main dish or the tuna bowl for a nice light but filling meal. Enjoy!

It’s such a cute spot to eat outside during brunch. Staff is chill. Some dishes are experimental. Good music mixes at a good volume. The sofa area was nice to take pictures.

We live on the other side of town and it hadn’t been here in a number of years. We’d forgotten just how good Ocotillo is. Megan, our server, was a 10 in all areas, including a lovely smile. We had the zucchini and beet salad as starters and the shrimp ravioli and hamburger for entrees. Everything was prepared exactly as they should be and were delicious. Truly a great reminder for us, and will be back soon.

Visiting PHX, from LA. Looked for something besides Mex and Southwest cuisine and found this gem. Tasteful and unique layout, friendly and professional staff. We ordered numerous small plates and a few entrees and all were slightly or very innovative using fresh ingredients. Delicious and not overpriced. Wish there was one in LA.
