    I love this restaurant but this time we didn’t enjoy the food. Something was changed and it was not as good and flavorful as it used to be. I ordered the eggplant meatballs and they tasted terrible. My husband ordered the cauliflower and it was burnt and with too much lemon

    Such a festive outdoor setting with wonderful food and drinks. We started with drinks at Sidecar and then moved over to the beer garden tables outside for dinner. It was great for our larger group of 7. We love the whole experience.

    Really great prime rib. The outdoor seating was unfortunately not very good for a date for two since all they had were these long awkward tables that really cuts the mood. Other than that fantastic.

    Based on reviews thought this would be a great choice. However, food was lacking flavor and the portions were exceptionally small for the brisket brunch option. It was very dry meat with no flavor or seasoning and was two thin small strips of meat about 2 total ounces. The polenta was pretty good though. The service was nothing special waited around a bit for our check at the end and servers were mostly talking amongst themselves. The chimichanga was pretty good though and a good size. But didn’t have much chicken. Very unimpressed.

    I have eaten at Ocotillo many times in the past and have never had a bad experience until today. But today was truly terrible. We sat down and it took almost 15 minutes for someone just to come over and take a drink order. We were told there was no milk or cream…at they were waiting for the chef to deliver it. Our waitress was beyond rude. It was like she was doing us a favor. We ordered a dish that was supposed to have rice in it and when I asked her if they had forgotten it she was incredibly rude and tried to convince me it was in fact in the dish until the bus boy told her they were out of rice so it hadn’t been included. Every step of the way the service was abysmal and instead of being apologetic our waitress was dismissive and rude. Likely will not be coming back. It’s a shame because the food an scenery are great but this experience was enough to ruin the restaurant for me.
