I'm a real fan of Postino's and have visited both the Kierland and East locations. When we're in Gilbert, we usually dine in either the cozy dining room or on their fabulous patio, but tonight we decided to do carry out instead. We ordered two bruschetta boards with Mexican Street Corn, Salmon Pesto, Prosciutto Mascarpone, Brie Apple Fig, Burrata Bacon Arugula, and Mozzarella Tomato Basil, along with a Caprese Panini on ciabatta with chips. Everything was really good. The bruschetta boards are always fun because it's impossible to pick a favorite -- every one tastes better than the last. The ingredients were fresh, the flavors worked really well together, and the portions were great for sharing. The Caprese Panini was flavorful and paired perfectly with the chips. Postino's continues to be one of our go-to spots for an easy, casual meal whether dining in or taking it to go. read more

Sean and Claire gave excellent service. We came in late and they took care of us. For late night food in Gilbert it's great. read more

Postino is one of our favorite brunch spots for a ladies get-together. I love that they have both indoor and outdoor seating, and the patio misters help a lot on hot Arizona days (though you may get the occasional fly if you sit outside-trade off to enjoy the patio). We usually order a few different dishes to share. Our favorites are the boards, sweet potato fries, skewers and salads--everything we've tried has been delicious. Portions are generous, so with six of us ordering, there's always plenty to go around and usually leftovers. The drinks are great too, and their $6 glass specials until 5pm are hard to beat. Our sweet waitress even took a photo of our group before we left, which we appreciated. We'll definitely be back with the ladies! read more

Postino East - Wine Bars Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

Downtown Gilbert has so many good places to eat. You can't go wrong with Postino! This specific review is for an event hosted at Postino. We had an intimate baby shower for about 30 people at the patio. We had a delicious display of their most popular items. 3 different kinds of paninis (my fave is the Cubano), a few charcuterie boards, chicken and beef kabobs, meatballs, dips and pita, and a their famous bruschetta board. Aqua Panna water bottles were served. For the kids, the picnic board was perfect. The boys loved the pitchers of Bell's Two Hearted IPA. Their wine selection is also great. Great service. Good food. Love this place! read more

It was a beautiful day to spend outside on the patio at Postino! For it being a Wednesday at 12PM, it was pretty busy with all the tables around me being full. The service overall was okay; I feel like it could have been a little bit better. It took a while for them to take our order, as well as get the check. Our order consisted of a bruschetta board and a Caesar salad, and it came out fairly quick. Overall, I enjoyed all of the options on the bruschetta board. Philly cheesesteak was a new one, and I personally wouldn't get it again, as it was too rich for me. However, the other 3 were classics. I wish they put more Red Pepper Jam on there. Overall, it was a good experience at Postino! read more

11/04/2025 I had a friend in town who was craving Postino, and how could I turn down a Postino bruschetta board?? Every time we go together, we always get our own board because I will devour the whole thing! She went with all sweet flavors, and I like a balance between savory and sweet. Got my favorites: -Ricotta, dates, pistachios -Smoked salmon, pesto -Prosciutto, fig, mascarpone -Brie, apple, fig Hits the spot every time with the crunch of the bread and flavor combinations. The mocktails, however, were disappointing. I've had the alcoholic Espresso Martini there when it was first added to the menu, and did not like it. I was hoping the zero proof version would be better since it's just espresso and some flavoring, but my friend could not take a second sip. They use canned espresso, not freshly brewed, so that could be a contributing factor. The waiter was nice and took it off of our bill. I tried the zero proof "The Glow Up" - tequila alternative, cucumber, mint, and ginger beer. Given the ingredients, I was not expecting this to be sour. It was still drinkable, but I wouldn't order it again. I'll just stick with the board and water, or wine when I feel like drinking alcohol. We also had to wait a while to get our waiter's attention to get the check. read more

I went to Postino East for happy hour with a friend expecting an easy and relaxed experience with great happy hour deals and nice food options. Thought it would feel fun and lively, comfortable, upscale'ish but not pretentious. Spoiler, the experience didn't come together for me. *Service: was slow and not overly friendly. It didn't feel rude, just indifferent. The bartender seemed like he was just doing his job, nothing more, didn't really care we were there, happy or not. I never felt especially welcomed or taken care of, the service felt flat. *Food & Drinks: the food menu is extremely limited, pretty much comprised of flatbread and small, overpriced, not much else. Not many food choices, and nothing really stood out as "oooh, that sounds good." If you're hungry, this isn't the place for you. What we had tasted okay, small pieces of bread with mediocre toppings, relatively bland, but that was about it. Decent, not memorable. The drinks were fine, again nothing bad, just nothing special. They did the job, not great prices, and I wasn't impressed or excited by any of it. *Ambiance: the space itself feels fine, looks nice, comfortable, but it didn't make up for the lack of energy from the service or the food. With so many vibrant, engaging places close by, this place felt a little lifeless in comparison. *Value: was pretty poor. The happy hour options and deals weren't great at all, and nothing felt like a standout value. With the prices and the experience, I kept thinking there are much better choices nearby offering far more for the same money, why wouldn't go there? *Overall: nothing was terrible, but nothing was special either. Slow service, limited food options, average drinks, and weak happy hour value. With so many fantastic places close by, I'd go elsewhere first, unless this was an unusual experience and I'm missing something that was overlooked, if do, not sure what's the draw. read more

Postinos is one of my favorite spots in downtown Gilbert! The wine and board deal is so perfect. Every time I go, I'm always so satisfied. Service is great, the vibes are amazing & the prices are unbeatable with that wine and board deals!! It's a perfect place for date nights & girls night out read more

I always have a great time when I stop in at Postinos. They have a great happy hour which I always pick up a bottle of wine at, the perfect wine is my favorite. My favorite bruschetta board they have is the apple fig one, it's so amazing. This time I had their meatballs with goat cheese and those were great as well. I've been here very often and everything I've had is amazing! read more

So I was out in Gilbert to visit the Bookish Shop after going to Agritopia farmers market and was a little hungry, but not enough for a huge meal. I always love a girl dinner so I went to Postino so I could get a glass of wine and some bruschetta. It was super busy but I snagged a seat at the bar. I had a glass of Albariño and a glass of still rosé, both were good though they didn't totally blow me away. I have a great wine bar at home though so I may just be picky at this point. I went with the bruschetta board and got the Brie and apple, the sweet and spicy jam with goat cheese, the salami and pesto, and the chefs choice which is currently a Philly cheesesteak. I enjoyed all of them, but the salami and pesto best with the sweet and spicy jam/goat cheese one as a close second. Overall, a great choice for a lighter dinner. read more

...what in the pretentious hell has happened to Postino? Brunch here used to be delicious and affordable (ahem, please bring back the country toast...) But it's like they got caught up in being "Postino" and just overcharge for smaller plates of food. I miss the days when brunch at Postino meant 2 slices of soft, toasted bread, perfectly cooked eggs, melty cheese, and crisp bacon. Now it's a bigger price point for half the food that's not cooked with love but (ugh, I'm going to say it...) a side of conceit. From lackluster service to plates of food that have apparently jumped on the ozempic trend, it's no longer a great meal that I'd shell out a few extra dollars for. Now it's a pass. read more

5* mostly because of the ambiance! We sat outside. Everything was soooooo cute! Food came out displayed beautifully! The drink specials were so good. We definitely got our moneys worth. The waiters were pretty quick. I would have liked if they knew the menu better. They couldn't answer many of my questions. But I was able to find pictures online to make my decisions. read more

We had an incredible evening out with Sean as our server. He made my night carding me, which is silly but at 42 with having a birthday a week ago, made my night! Service was incredible. We had a few changes on menu items due to allergies and he was on top of all of it. Drinks came out quickly, he kept our water glasses full, and checked on us several times. He also spoke highly of his coworkers, which always in a bright spot to me when people love where they work. He had the best personality and kept my Mom and I smiling all night with his joyous attitude...and we found out we share a birthday so he gets bonus points for being my birthday twin too! Thanks Sean for being a highlight for our evening out. Looking forward to our next visit and we will wait longer for your section! read more

We love going there during the week for lunch when it's not too busy. The food is great & the atmosphere is nice. The outdoor patio is huge and ha a fireplace. Parking is free and easily accessible. read more

I hadn't visited Postinos in a long while and visited for a date night. The food was great, just as I remembered but what was lacking was the service. Friendly staff, yes absolutely but there was such a lack of attention when it came to checking on our table, refilling drinks, etc. we had to flag down our waitress for the check because she just kept passing us by. I know it's like a community service where everyone helps out but it didn't really seem that way. It seemed more so that everyone kept to their tables and don't check anyone else's. read more

This was my second visit to this location and the food and drinks were great as usual! I had a delightful cucumber cocktail that was light and refreshing. My fiance and I shared a yummy bruschetta board and then each got the choose two option with half of a panini and either a soup or salad. The food was absolutely delicious, as always. Four stars because we were there on a Monday night and the service was quite slow and hard to find waiters at times. read more

Great location in DT Gilbert. Huge outside patio. Not super loud (outside) We had a girls party of 3 on a Friday evening. It was busy. We ordered the bruschetta boards (which they are famous for) : smoke salmon/pesto, brie/apple/fig, warm artichoke, buratta/bacon/arugula. We also orders the Greek hummus board & the Italian beef panini with chips. So yummy! Our service was exceptional & very timely. There are Postino's all over the Valley, Try one. You won't be disappointed. read more

I'm not sure how "traditional" Italian it is, but the food is excellent! I had the meatballs for an appetizer based on our server's suggestion. She was right, they were great! Then we split a Bruschetta board. Love the variety and options. All of it was delicious. I also appreciate the vibe of the place with the team focused service mentality. Love to take people from out of town here! read more

Stopped in on a Saturday evening to use my birthday coupon! It wasn't very busy and we were seated immediately. My husband and I love to split the bruschetta board and a sandwich. We opted for the side salad instead of the chips with the sandwich - idk what they put in their dressing, but it's SO good. We love the food here! My only complaint is service. We have been to multiple Postino locations throughout the valley (Postino East is the closest for us), but this one always misses the mark on service for us. We waited about ten minutes before someone even approached our table for drinks. read more

First time coming to a Postino and we loved it! The food was great. We had the pub board and the bruschetta. My favorite was the smoked salmon. We sat outside and even on a very hot day it was comfortable because of the misters they had going. read more

The perfect place to grab a glass of wine and bruschetta while sitting on their sunny patio! They have great happy hour deals- $6 for any glass of wine or pitcher of beer before 5pm. The Bonny Doon orange wine is so good and unique, you have to try it! As for their food, their cheese board and bruschetta board are incredible. The service is always friendly and quick, even when they are busy. Can't wait to come back to celebrate at Postino! read more

Any time someone from out of town comes, I take them here. Such a fun vibe and the bruschettas are so creative and good. The paninis are also warm and comforting read more

Wow. The vibe is this place is awesome. Stopped here first before I bar hopped around downtown Gilbert. Atmosphere/Ambiance - 6/5 - Sits on the corner with great lighting and a really nice vibe. I highly recommend just stopping by to grab a quick bite and a drink. Staff - 5/5 - Really nice bartenders who are very friendly and attentive. I was sitting next to some locals and everyone was just having a great time. Food/Drink - I could have stayed here for a while, but my goal was to visit as many places as I could during this trip. I came during happy hour, and they have $6 pitchers of beer, which was a nice start. Ordered the following food items: Meatballs & Goat Cheese - 5/5 - Very flavorful between the meatballs and the goat cheese. Crispy Cauliflower - 5/5 - I actually enjoyed the capers on this. Overall, the vibe alone was nice enough for me to stop by here. I definitely recommend and would come back the next time I am here. read more

Meh. If you don't come here for happy hour you're going to wonder why a couple of pretzel sticks, 4 pieces of a sausage link, and some corn nuts thrown on a board costs $17. The "smoked old fashioned" is in fact not smoked at all. I normally don't leave reviews like this but this place is dirty, my table was sticky. The food and atmosphere is played out and the service sucks unless you sit at the bar. read more

11/10 on the vibes 12/10 on the food And 13/10 on the service Claire's service was impeccable. Super kind and bubbly, she even threw in a birthday treat for my buddy. We need more waitresses like her for real. read more

Sadly as long time patrons who spend a lot of money here, being people from all over the world, support and tip the staff well AND overlook service errors and issues this place has really changed They want to nickel and dime you over everything God forbid with certain bartenders you complain or ask for anything I will definitely adjust my tips in the future and think twice about coming here when I have PLENTY OF OTHER OPTIONS YOU COULDNT GIVE ME 1/2 oz of dressing??

My wife has asked me for a few years to go here and I always said, maybe another time. Well, we had friends in town and I was persuaded to go. I was pleasantly surprised. The bruschetta was good, great drink selection and it was very nice on the back patio. read more

Fun ambiance for happy hour :) Great service and the food was delicious! Our server, Sean, was an amazing waiter!

I'm from out of state but this place is my nieces go to place. They had the bruschetta board which was very interesting looking and they said it was delicious. You could have a variety of toppings. I chose the half sandwich with soup. I had the French dip and the cheese soup. The sandwich was delicious. The bread was light and crunchy all together. The soup was not very hot so we sent it back and got another one. It wasn't my favorite taste of the ale was a little overwhelming, and the cheese soup was too thin. We also ordered a coffee, which by the time we got our sugar, it was not very hot although the staff were very friendly service was a bit slow. We were there at the opening and by the time we left it was packed. I would highly recommend coming here because they're variety is great. read more

Loved visiting this local restaurant. I've been wanting to go here for years. I was visiting from Seattle and my friend offered for us to go here. Enjoyed the atmosphere, the food and the service! First of all our waiter, Sean was just fabulous and provided great suggestions and feedback on what to try. He was always spot on. Absolutely loved the sweet and spicy jam bruschetta and prosciutto with fig. I asked for a side of sweet and spicy jammed had more to everything. So good. The PREAM bowl was delicious as well. The red sauce is fabulous. Had a great bottle of wine on the happy hour for $24. Such a great deal. Can't wait to come back. read more

Postino's East I would say has been the worst experience I've had in Gilbert in a long time. The restaurant was very busy on a continual basis and I was there for about two hours and sadly they were completely understaffed. After waiting a half an hour and no one even acknowledged the table, after we were seated by the most obnoxiously rude hostess, I had to go find someone to get water, I then again had to go find someone to place a drink order. I can't blame the staff, but I also can't tip because I feel sorry for somebody that their management doesn't know how to schedule coverage. Lastly, I would say the hostess should be the face of your restaurant and if that's your face, I'm not sure that I want to be a patron there. read more

As a local resident I have been to postino many times. Each time is consistent and delicious. What made my recent experience different: Victoria and (I believe) Ethan. Victoria is well versed on the menu, food allergens and ensuring that a GF person can eat without fear. She learned it was our anniversary and was delighted to celebrate with us. She and Ethan gave us beautiful cards wishing us a great anniversary and wonderful day. For the food review, the GF bruschetta board is enough to share with the entire table. You get to pick 4 "flavors" and all of the staple varieties are also GF. My fav is the Mexican street corn (which I learned is going away :(. In this experience I also tried pistachio and date. This was my least favorite. The texture was a bit gritty. This was not a kitchen error, just not a texture I enjoyed...so I recommend just doubling up on your street corn instead! Locals and visitors alike, postino is a must try. The patio misted and moderately protected from the sun. Go and plan to eat, drink and enjoy the all around relaxing environment! read more

Postino is definitely a must when visiting Downtown Gilbert! The service is always amazing alongside their food. We normally go around brunch-time for drinks and the bruschetta board! I recently tried their bloody mary and it was spot on. I have tried a handful of their bruschetta options and would highly recommend the french onion option! So so good! Not only do we go for the food & drinks, but even the establishment itself! Whether you are seated inside or out, everything is so aesthetically pleasing (like the beautiful yellow umbrellas and the gorgeous desert plants!) read more

Went to Postinos for lunch today. My husband and I both ordered a pick two, half sandwich and salad. I asked for ciabatta bread and my husband had focaccia. When the sandwiches came out, fairly quickly, both were on focaccia bread. I told them the mistake. No problem we will make you a new sandwich. Fifteen minutes later my husband is done with his lunch and I never got my sandwich. I'm beyond pissed and still hungry. Postinos didn't charge us for my husbands meal. I would have rather had my lunch. read more

No one beats their bruschetta! It's a great location in downtown Gilbert right next to the Gale theater!
