    We stopped in on a random Saturday night and there was live music, relaxing Mediterranean vibes. We enjoy3d some appetizers and wine. The noise level was moderate, and the service was great.

    First time here!! We sat at the bar and had a drink and appetizer. The fonduta was served in the wrong plate. The bartenders were great. Dinner was a little disappointing. The steak was under seasoned and the pasta with seafood was light on seafood. The arugula gave the steak the flavor it had. The music was great. Service over all was eh. The pasta was over done but the ragu was tasty. It is a very nicely decorated place. No espresso machine, which is a must at an Italian place.

In 2025 we couldn't stop raving about this place the food was amazing the service was impeccable. This last visit this weekend was disappointing. My partner ordered the beef wellington which was excellent and I ordered the duck which was...unexpected. The black cherry confit seemed non-existent, I think I actually got the same sauce that was on the Wellington. I didn't say anything because I wasn't sure and the duck was prepared well so I just let it go. The creme brulee dessert was a disaster. The first order came out black and I told the waiter there was something wrong with it immediately. He had mentioned he was new so I'm guessing he wasn't sure what it was supposed to look like. I tried to crack into it and the top just molded with the spoon so I asked him to take it back because it was not right. I watched him show it to someone, who I was told was the owners son, and they sent another. The owners son dropped it off the table and said, this should be more to my liking and walked away. Well it was only slightly less burnt but it did crack so I tried it. Sugar was definitely burnt, you could taste it, and the custard was dripping wet instead of solid. I showed this to the other waiter who was helping and she understood immediately and took it back. She said let's just get you the lava cake instead and I said fine. It's too bad because the flavor on the custard itself was excellent and I was really looking forward to it. Needless to say I was disappointed when the dessert was not taken off the bill after all we had been through with it. I expect more when dinner for two costs almost $200.

This place usually has living room likes seating areas, but they will move out of the way to accommodate the large Cousin Eddie RV area. There were lots of lights everywhere and a fireplace with a large nutcracker next to the bar. It's a very clever that they added ugly Christmas sweaters to the chairs at the bar and high top tables. So cute! They also have two outdoor patios with couches and tables. We ordered a couple of cocktails off the Christmas menu. I order the "Clark's Nipply Egg Nog" and my son ordered the "It's a Good Old Fashioned Family Christmas." I didn't try his because I do not like bourbon but he reports it was very good. And I did love my eggnog drink. For food, my son ordered off of The Omelette bar. You fill out the little form check mark in exactly what you want in your omelette and what you want for the side. I ordered the chopped salad, which is what I've ordered here before and absolutely love. It comes with chopped salami and cheese which make it absolutely yummy. We arrived early by the time you left the place was starting to fill up. I'll continue to come here because I just love that chopped salad, but I think everything that we've had here has been delicious.

Great spot for a date night or to kick it with friends. Ordered the spinach artichoke dip to start and it had a good flavor. Comes with a good portion of chips on the side. Shareable between a party of 2 (maybe 3 at most). We both ordered the wagyu chuck burger and I went with the sweet potato waffle fries. Good choice. Overall the Happy Hour drinks were good but I do think they lacked alcohol. Not sure if it's bc they were off the HH menu but they were on the lighter side. I enjoyed the James Brown and the Mango Tamarind Mule. Looking forward to my next visit.

You order at a counter and the staff will bring food to your table. My favorite item is the breakfast sandwich. The brioche is tasty, the eggs are extremely fluffy, and the sausage has nice flavor. The garlic aioli helps bring it all together. For coffee, I like the King, but make sure to order it half sweet. It has a perfect balance that way. The cold foam on top is delicious. There are plenty of events going on here too. Bottle & Bean regularly schedules live music to play throughout the month on their lawn. They also have wine, so it is a great spot for morning and evening. The staff are very friendly and attentive too!

I especially love their music nights on the grass/turf. Their outdoor area is such a draw. I even did a morning Pilates session there once that was held I think once per month on a Saturday by Haia Studio Nextdoor who is also a standout for Downtown Ocotillo! I love seeing them working together... I love their coffees and drinks! However, the only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is that their food menu is lacking and it takes so long to get it when you do order something. For instance I once ordered some sort of pastry I think it was banana bread, and it tasted like the Starbucks one that come prepackaged like airplane food and it took 35 minutes until it was delivered to my table. Another time I ordered a breakfast scramble or similar w Potato wedges and it tasted like something microwaved and took over 40 minutes to get ...so personally I just stick w drinks when I come here. But if they ever upgrade their food menu I'll come back and give it 5!

We had the meatball skewers which was enjoyable; I personally really liked the sauce. we also had the pepperoni flatbread. which was better than the meatballs. the sauce was so good, the crust was crispy, but dough was soft under the cheese and the pepperoni was cooked so nicely.

    A very pleasant evening at Pesto's. We had a reservation for 5:00PM and we arrived about 15…read moreminutes early. We were greeted immediately when we walked in and brought straight to a good table in spite of our early arrival. Within a couple of minutes Erin our server came to introduce herself. We began with cocktails. A double Makers Mark on the rocks and a straight-up Tito's martini. Both done just as we like them and generous. First course was the Calamari. We're former New Yorkers so being a Calamari snob is expected. This offering, which delivered a bit of Scungilli as well, was really done well. Not heavy on the bread crumbs and not at all rubbery. The accompanying sauce was very tasty. We followed up splitting a Caesar Salad that we devoured. When we ordered our entree, Linguini and White Clam sauce, we asked Erin about the portions and she read us well. She suggested that we might be overwhelmed by the size of it so we split that also. Turned out to be a great idea. We devoured that too. Done just the way I like it. So good that I ordered a glass of Italian white wine to go with it. Normally, we don't have dessert but, Erin didn't bring the dessert menu. She just looked right at us and said: "We have the best carrot cake in the entire valley"! I must say that presentation was tough to look down my nose at so we split an order of carrot cake. I think I can say it really was the most interesting and best carrot cake I have ever had. Throughout the entire meal Erin kept an eye on us and made sure there wouldn't be a reason for us to wave her over. She's definitely a pro. She was even nice enough to laugh at my really bad jokes. A shout-out to the food runners as well. They were on time, friendly and polite. In closing, I have to salute the management. The dining room was clean, organized, and nicely appointed. They have attracted a pretty nice clientele if my observations were correct. There was plenty of conversations happening but no shouting or yelling. It is just a comfortable place to have a nice dinner out. I highly recommend this restaurant. Give it a try. PS: They seemed unusually appreciative of us making a reservation both on the phone and at the restaurant. Make a reservation, it will be a good start to your evening. ENJOY!

Showed up and the restaurant was relatively busy with only a few open tables inside. The restaurant has a fish tank with some large fish which was cool. We were immediately greeted to get drink orders. We ended up ordering the 10 inch Tuscan pizza (it came cut into 6 slices). We also ordered the Chicken Saltimbocca. After about 15-20 minutes both dishes arrived. The Chicken Saltimbocca was outstanding. The flavor was delicious. Would highly recommend. The Tuscan pizza was also great. We were worried it might be dry but did not have a problem. Overall, the meal was wonderful and we will definitely come back to try more. Our server was kind and efficient and overall it was an awesome meal.
