    Creamy pesto w shrimp
    Miss T.

    Good food and service the cappuccino chip gelato was delicious. Restaurant and restroom were clean

    Birthday Tiramisu
    Mike H.

    Brought a family friend here for a birthday dinner and there were four of us total. Everyone enjoyed their food. I had the Pesto Pasta with chicken. I liked it but it needed some oomph to it. I kept having to add parmesan and salt. I tried the lasagna, and it was good. My wife and her friend had the Pasta Bolognese. They really enjoyed their food. They brought out the birthday girl a tiramisu that was on the house. Really nice touch. Place is clean and the air conditioner works great.

    Their *Cheese Tortellini* with Alfredo and added chicken. Perfection!!! Every entree else comes with a piece of garlic bread.

    Everytime I am up here I have been stopping by to get their pasta for years! My mom says they also have delicious sandwiches but I have yet to try those as my go to is the PASTA. Hits everytime. When I pick up an order the girl at the front helping me is an absolute sweetheart the staff are all so very nice, I'm assuming it's family owned? The vibe is cute there are a bunch of little adorable Pinocchio statues in the front while you're waiting on a table or an order to go and it's pretty busy for the most part. If you like Italian THIS place is the spot!!!

    Flight gelato , choose 3 flavors.

    Found this restaurant on yelp. Looking for an Italian restaurant in Sonora, this place is it. The portions are worth the price you pay. The food was good and the service and great. Gluten free options are available. The desserts were even better.

    Great Atmosphere! Perfect for a Disney lover . walk through the restaurant and be amazed at all the decor & collectibles ! Food was great. Service good.

    Full size sandwich
    Josh M.

    We LOVE Pinocchio's! Everything on the menu is amazing. From Italian classics, to sandwiches, to salads. We love the sandwiches and the kids love the huge meatballs. The staff is very friendly. From date night to family outings they treat everyone equally and make you feel welcome. I've tried just about everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. The only warning is that the full sandwiches are huge, you will be taking something home with you. If you don't want to take anything home, order the half sandwich.

They didnt have a printed kids menu but he helped my kids choose their food. We got ourselves some food and drinks as well. Everything came out fairly quickly. 1. The fancy fondue was very yummy. It came with toasted sourdough bread. 2. Garlic bread was also good. We dipped that into the fondue once we were done with the sourdough. It enhanced the taste further. 3. Kids loved the pepperoni pizza and fish & chips. 4. Our server also accommodated our request for a half and half garlic chicken pizza with no meat on one side. The pizza came out great. We didnt even leave the edges 5. For drinks we got the old fashioned and birthday cake which were both great. Will definitely be back here if in the area.

Their happy hour is DAILY from 14:00-16:00. The restaurant was pretty busy on a Sunday, but we didn't have to wait long for a table. Our server was attentive and friendly. For our cocktails, my friend went with the Huckleberry lemonade, while I went with the pomegranate whiskey sour. She thoroughly enjoyed her cocktail, and so did I. At that price point, I didn't expect much, but it was a solid cocktail, although not as strong as what I'd normally get elsewhere. The clam chowder sounded really good, and I couldn't help myself, so I ordered it. My friend is not a fan of seafood, so the chowder was all for me. The crostini was very nicely toasted and I loved dipping it into the chowder. I was also pleasantly surprised by the flavor and quality of the clam chowder. It was packed with a ton of clams, and was perfectly hearty without being heavy. We opted to share the fallen apple pizza, which was the perfect choice. The dough was pillowy and light, and the toppings delicious. I would have liked more apple slices, as it didn't seem like they were very prominent, and for the balsamic drizzle to be more uniform, but overall it was a solid pizza. I took leftover pizza home, and my husband enjoyed it for dinner. We heated it up in the air fryer and that was the way to go. While it was a little noisy in the restaurant, mainly due to a large group seated next to us, we still had a good experience, and the booth seating was comfy. I would love to bring my husband back to try more happy hour menu items next time we visit Sonora! The price point is seriously hard to beat, and Emberz is a solid spot for hanging out and having a good time.

It's not a fancy spot, the decor,…read moretables and chairs probably haven't seen an upgrade in a couple decades, but it's hands down a 5 star restaurant. I'm surprised they only have 3.7 stars. There is plenty of parking, plenty of seating. We came here on a Sunday evening and were greeted and seated right as we walked in. The staff is top-notch. I wish I would have gotten our waitresses name because she's a rockstar, she gave her recommendations, remembered our order (even with my friend asking her 100 questions and changing her mind a couple times) and was super attentive making sure to check in often. I also got to see other staff interactions with other customers and they were all friendly and attentive, also I feel there were quite a few regulars because the place really felt like you're walking into a friends house. We got the calamari appetizer, it was perfectly crispy and delicious. We all ordered steak and each one was perfection- cooked just how we ordered and tasted amazing with the different sauces. My fiancee got the white peppercorn and nearly licked his plate clean, I got the garlic one with sautéed mushrooms, and our friend went with the chipotle on the side (she ended up pouring it on top because it was amazing.) We've been to some fancy steakhouses, and this was better than most, with a much better price tag. The servings were generous and I had enough to take home for lunch the next day. Also the bread was hot and perfect, crunchy on the outside and soft inside. I wish we had room for dessert because I know it must be amazing too. We will definitely be coming back!

Last night my bestfriend & I decided to meet up at the Peppery for dinner. I arrived first and went in to get a table for the two of us. I was waiting in the entry area behind the "Please Wait to be Seated" sign. As I waited another party arrived and was waiting beside me. One of the servers came over walked past me and asked them for how many and took them to be seated. Interesting for me seeing as I had been standing there for a few minutes before they entered the restaurant, while servers walked passed me & those near the bar area made eye contact and went back to their duties. Another couple then came into the restaurant and were waiting beside me to be seated, a different server emerged and started walking towards us, she then asked if I had already been helped and got me seated at a table and got menus & drinks while I waited for my friend to arrive. Once she arrived our server got her drink order and checked to see if we need anything while we look over the menu. We noticed they have an updated menu with all the same favorites. My friend ordered the Angel Hair Pasta w/ Italian Sausage with a cup of soup to start, and I ordered the Garlic Roasted Ribeye with Jalapeno Cheddar Mashed Potatoes & Seasonal Veggies with a house salad to start. The food was good not quite as good as I had anticipated. My friends pasta was over sauced, too much sauce for the amount of pasta. My steak had too much demi glaze on it; I did wipe most of it off and I will order it on the side next time. My steak was cooked slightly under what I requested but still good. We were so stuffed that we did not even want to look at the dessert menu. I probably will go back, but I will wait a bit before we return.

There was only one other person in there when we arrived, but by the time we left it was packed! Counter staff was super friendly and I love that you can see the hard work that's happening in the back of the house. It's such a cozy vibe. They post their daily menu to Instagram so I already had a list of what I wanted, but it all looked SO GOOD so we left with much more than originally planned. Bagels: the BEST and I mean BEST sourdough bagels that I've ever had. When others make them a lot of times they turn out too dense, but these were perfectly puffed on the outside, a little tangy, and chewy when you rip into the bite. YUM! Today they had cheddar, plain, and everything. Classic Sourdough: perfectly cooked, perfectly chewy. I've had the cheddar-jalapeño before and it had a great flavor but that loaf was a little too chewy for me. The classic hits just right. They also have flavors like apple cinnamon, garlic, and gouda rosemary... just to name a few. AND they have some gluten-free if that's what you're into or need. It's coming fresh out of the oven regularly. Cookies: don't sleep on the sourdough cookies! They're perfectly chewy, large, and so flavorful. The molasses are my favorite but honorable mentions include snickerdoodle, peanut butter, and chocolate chip. They also have an assortment of cakes - we opted for a huge slice of carrot cake that was a "small" - and desserts. There were cinnamon rolls, tiramisu, and honestly so much more that I blacked out a little and wanted one of everything. All in all, we walked away with a full bag of bread and treats for only $32! They take card and cash. As I mentioned before, be sure to follow their IG @2acrefarms_sonorasourdough for what's offered daily!

What stands out immediately is how kind and welcoming the owners are. This is truly a family-run shop, and you can feel the intention behind everything they do. They aren't just stocking shelves, they are thoughtfully sourcing items they would confidently choose for their own family and children. That level of care is rare. We bought a hoodie, hat, and t-shirt for my daughter's birthday, and she has been wearing them every single day since. The quality is incredible! I mean really. These are not cheaply made pieces. You can feel the difference right away in the fabric, the fit, and the durability. What makes this place even more special is the heart behind it. It's not just about business. It is about people. They genuinely care about the families who walk through their doors and he went out of his way to offer products that reflect that. They do not jack up the prices but the quality is better than an REI or Sax 5th Avenue. I know good quality and these items are made very well. We also purchased a tumbler for my children, bird house, two stuffed animals, and a few other little things and the quality and make are consistent throughout the store no matter what it is. Having seven children we know good quality items. Unfortunately, it is not an unfamiliar experience to see things break after purchasing. Not here! If you're looking for meaningful, high-quality items and want to support a family that truly puts other families first, this is a place you'll want to keep coming back to and buying from again and again.
