    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!

    I have a friend who raves about their location in Scottsdale and size o was here o decoded or check out this one in Gilbert. Place looks great. It has a nice outdoor patio as well as bar seating and indoor dining. We were greeted right away macrame to a table smack dab in the middle of the room with eye site pf the bar which I thought would be great. We chose the bruschetta board with the pick four option to start. Along with some waters while we tried to decide. Our server stated that the servers all help so we may encounter others; cool even better service. Unfortunately that's not what happened. We were completely ignored the rest of our time there. Multiple servers walked by us with not even a liver of eye contact. Our server only showed up at the end after I'd already tracked down someone else trying to get the check. It took another 10 minutes to get our check and a to go box. If I'm rating just the food 5/5 . Service 1/5. I don't think I'd be back here honestly. Not this location anyway. Acknowledge goes a long way. We couldn't even order drinks. Well, unless I got up to grab them from the bar

    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!

    To be loved is to be seen. This phrase could not be more true about my experiences at this location. I have been going to this location for years and I have been fortunate enough to get to know this amazing staff. Vicki and Sean are so great and have a presence that is comforting and warm. Even on their busiest of days, they remember preferences and genuinely want to know the answer to "how are you?". I cannot express how much I love this location and the rest of the phenomenal staff. Thanks so much for being a third place that welcomes everyone into the fold. Of course, the food is great and the wine is never in short supply. The vibes here are always right and you'll usually find me here on any Tuesday enjoying board & bottle and filling in everyone on my daily life.

    Came here for lunch before going to the concert hall. We split a board. It came with Brie apple fig, Prosciutto figs mascarpone, smoked salmon pesto, ricotta date pistachios. Everything was delicious, they all had a unique taste. chicken noodle soup lemon zest , good with a different taste. Great location. Lunch wine $6

    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.

    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!

    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

    Brussel sprout salad with chicken
    Barbara B.

    Always a favorite! Happy hour all day til 5. The brussel sprout salad with kale is one of my favorite salads. Marconi almonds, dried cherries and a little bacon. So tasty!! They have one of the best outdoor patios of anyone. And the service is always on point.

    Homemade tots. Eh, the price doesn't match the quality or the amount.

    ...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.

The queso was rich without being too heavy, and the mustard added a nice contrast. For my meal, I had the Caesar salad topped with a bistro steak cooked a perfect medium rare. The romaine was crisp, the garlic-anchovy dressing bold, and the garlic croutons and parmesan tied everything together. The steak was tender, flavorful, and elevated the salad. At the table, we also ordered the cheesesteak with Angus beef, roasted peppers and onions, Havarti cheese, and garlic aioli served on a baguette, with sweet potato fries. The sandwich was hearty and satisfying, and the fries were really good The wagyu burger was another standout--topped bacon, Gruyère and smoky blue cheese, caramelized onions, tomato jam, and garlic aioli on a pub bun. The beef and bacon were fabulous and the fries cooked to perfection Jake, our server, was terrific--attentive, friendly, and helped make the whole experience even better. We finished with the butterscotch bread pudding topped with vanilla gelato and caramel sauce, which was the perfect ending--warm, comforting, and just the right amount of sweetness Overall, a great patio dining experience with flavorful dishes, excellent service, and plenty of variety.

She was friendly personable and slinging drinks like she'd been there for a while. Great job to both of them! As for the food, it was phenomenal as expected but a special call out needs to be made for the butterscotch bread pudding. It was complementary for my birthday and I probably would have never tried it before but it turned out to be the best bread pudding I've had in ages. So tender and sweet delicious!! 5 stars. Highly recommend!

We came in with our family and three kids and sat on the patio since we were a larger group. After eating, our kids were sitting in chairs near our table, chatting and moving around a bit. They weren't being loud or disruptive, but a nearby a couple clearly seemed upset. The woman was shaking her head and saying to the waitress "this isn't okay to be doing while people are eating", pointing toward our kids. Once I realized this, I immediately called my kids back over and had them sit with us, and I even let her know that if something was bothering her, she could've told us and I would have addressed it right away. The couple chose to ignore us and left shortly after. The manager then came out and reassured us that Lucky Lou's is a family-friendly restaurant and that our kids were absolutely fine. That meant a lot to us and really showed how supportive and understanding the staff is. I also hope one day that couple realizes how hard it is to keep a 4-, 6-, and 8-year-old sitting at a table for more than 30 minutes without shoving an iPad in front of them. On top of that, the service was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and I honestly had the best burger and tater tots of my life. We'll definitely be back--thank you for creating such a kid-friendly and enjoyable place for families!

    My son was in the mood for Italian food, so I do search for Italian restaurants near us. Dave's…read moreItalian Eatery popped up. The menu online looks promising, and it's very close to our home, so we decided to give it a try. This place is very bright and fresh looking, for lack of a better description. There's a bar, and a really great mural. There's an entire wall of banqettes, and some tables in the second room which is divided only by a half wall. There are some walls which I thought had exposed brick, but later noticed were wall boards. Either way, I love the look. We were seated right away and the nicest server came over. He really seems to love the restaurant and love the food, which is always a plus in my book. The boys each got a beer, and I got the Italian margarita. It was a sweet drink that kind of tasted like an Amaretto Sour, which makes sense since there's Amaretto in it. I liked it. They brought gigantic rolls with butter to the table. I really liked it because most places serve sourdough bread, and I don't really like sourdough bread. These large white rolls were yummy. I wasn't very hungry so I just ordered two meatballs, but I asked if I could have the meat sauce instead of the marinara that it usually comes with. Our server said there would be no problem with that, and there wasn't. Hubby got the spaghetti and meatballs, and son got eggplant parmesan. All of it was delicious and I give kudos for a really yummy meat sauce. For me, the meat sauce can make or break an Italian restaurant. They seem to do a pretty brisk take out business, and there were quite a few people by the time we left. I would love to come back and try the pizza, because pizzas that we saw coming out looked fantastic.

I mean that's like expecting authentic Mexican food from a place called Steve's Taco Truck. When you walk in the first thing you will notice is the contemporary look. It feels more like a college cafeteria than an Italian restaurant; warm but devoid of any personality aside from the huge 'Welcome To Gilbert' mural on the wall. They do have a well stocked bar, but when we arrived at 12:30 every table was vacant save one. Despite the great reviews this should have been our second warning. I did see in the Yelp photo's that the garlic bread was captioned as terrible, but my daughter wanted to try it so we gave it a shot. One bite and she was like "Nope". It had the thinnest layer on cheese on top and was super dense and unyielding. Moving on to the spaghetti and meatballs. My Munchkin immediate identified the meatballs as Sysco or some similar food service fare. The sauce was okay but not fresh by any measurable degree. I had the thinnest Chicken Parm ever, covered in sauce and mozzarella cheese which couldn't disguise the blandness of the chicken no matter hard it tried. Nothing about the food said fresh ingredients. We both ate about four bites and decided we were done and would head over to Oregano's. To be fair, the waitress (no personality) did take the garlic bread off the bill, but when I asked for the bill and said we didn't want to go containers for the full plates of food didn't even bat an eye like she expected as much. This place lured us in with good reviews and how busy it looks on the weekends. If our experience is any indication I give it six months tops before going under unless they do a complete overhaul from the top down.

    Let me start with a little tid bit about Downtown Gilbert. There is nothing really special about it…read moreoutside of the vibe is right. Always a lot of people there so it makes you want to be there. Restaurant wise they have really basic offerings. Places you can find in Mesa, and Tempe, and Scottsdale. Now.... What truly makes Downtown Gilbert special are the small shops that are hidden away from the "main strip". One of those places is Clever Koi. Hidden in the Parking lot space behind Shaq's Chicken spot is a small strip of shops. A book store, smoothie place, and my favorite Clever Koi. Our family has very different tastes when we move from one member to the next. So finding places that we all like gets tricky. Clever Koi makes that easy because we honestly have yet to run into something we don't like. Let's start with our favorite starter. The steamed buns (giggity). The pork belly is hands down phenomenal. An amazing bite that literally makes you want more and more. The lazy fries are just that, again pork belly is included, but that garlic aioli is what drives this dish. The tai salad is obviously classic. The short rib dumplings literally make you close your eyes and just say "Mmmmmm". My middle child is the hardest pallet to please at any restaurant as he only eats certain things, but the Chicken Katsu sandwich here is his second favorite chicken sandwich in all this world. The first time he ate it he spent the whole ride home raving about it. Mind you, we live in San Tan, so not a short ride. The shaking beef is always good. It has this firey kick that brings the heat upfront but does not linger. You cannot forget about the fried rice here. Rice is one of my weaknesses in life second only to pizza. Fried rice ranks right up there with my top favorite ways to eat rice and this ranks right up there with my favorite fried rice places. The main reason we come here is because of the noodles. Ramen, ramen, ramen. When you think of Ramen, I assure you this is what you are thinking of. The broth is oh so savory and reigns in the fresh veggies and proteins to meld them with the noodles for a flavor punch each time you have a mouthful. They have great drinks here as well, or so I've been told by the other adults I come here with. I always just get a sake and Sapporo so... LOL The service is always good here and we somehow always manage to miss the lunch or dinner rush which is awesome. All in all... this is by far my favorite dining spot in downtown Gilbert. Great food, great drinks, great service, great atmosphere, in the middle of a great little square. A must eat for me.

Our server Maya was incredible and extremely knowledgeable on all dishes, drinks, and so many details of the restaurant! I've never had this good of service anywhere! My wife and I had the Pad See Ew with the braised chicken thigh which was INCREDIBLE. Perfectly chewy noodles, great seasoning. I highly recommend adding some of the homemade Fresno chile sriracha for a kick! The pork ramen was also very delicious. Be warned it's a lot of pork! My wife preferred it with the green jalapeño sriracha. The drinks were also very unique and delicious! A sideline view for me and riding the line for my wife. Oh and the best part was the dessert Bananas foster hush puppy puffs. These were so unique, seasoned with cinnamon sugar and Chinese 5 spice. It took some getting used to but the more you ate it with the Carmel toffee sauce the more I enjoyed it. All in all I can see why people love this place! It's a 5 star restaurant for a 3 star price! If you're looking to expand your flavor palette and have a wonderful evening I can't recommend Clever Koi enough!

At first I thought I didn't want a burger as I usually make my own at home but was pleasantly surprised at the menu & ambiance. Sarina was our waitress & I asked her if the California Bowl was like a salad with a veggie burger as it doesn't state a beef patty? She said it's like a burger w/o a bun but as a bowl w/the ingredients & TOPPED with a beef patty. Oh, I see... So I asked if I could just have the Basmati Rice but it was a mixture of Basmati & Quinoa so she said she could give me more ingredients of something else like Brussels sprouts or Greens so I asked for more Greens. The ingredients are: griddled Sweet Potatoes, roasted Mushrooms, caramelized Onions, Brussels Sprouts, Quinoa, Avocado slices with a Tamari glaze. It was also topped with Cilantro & Green Onions. I also ordered an Iced Tea. The California Burger Bowl was soooo delicious with such a flavor bomb of textures, sweetness & caramelized, smokey flavors! The crunchiness from the cold greens, warm Brussels Sprouts, soft & sweet Caramelized Onions & Sweet Potatoes, plus the creaminess of the Avocados was such a great medley! I think I need to replicate this at home! Very creative & healthy! My cousin & friend both got burgers, one topped with mushrooms & one with a lettuce wrap sub, Zucchini & Sweet Potato Fries. The seating is very comfortable with the cushioned seats & booths & the restaurant is very bright & airy with lots of windows & high ceilings. If you have to use the restroom, it's located outside & will give you a passcode. Highly recommend this place!

    On a Saturday night after grabbing some ice cream at Topo, we stopped by Sotol Modern Cocktail…read moreKitchen for a nightcap. Located in downtown Gilbert, Sotol is a rooftop bar and restaurant. I love a good rooftop and the weather was perfect. While they don't have a parking lot, free parking is available on the street and in the various surface lots and garages in the area. Ambiance (4.5/5): It's tough to beat a rooftop. Here you'll have nice views of downtown Gilbert, including the historic Gilbert water tower (which lights up at night). It's not a huge restaurant/bar, probably 50 seats or so. A good number of tables and then 15 seats or so at the bar. We sat at the bar. There's a pretty nice mural on one end too. Service (4/5): A little slow to start out with and to close out, but overall, friendly. We found one of the last four remaining seats at the bar. If not for that, there would have been a wait. One drink and then we made our way. Overall, about average. Food (N/A): I was on a liquid diet for this visit but they do have a full menu. Drinks (4/5): Interesting craft cocktail list. The first one on the list is a Sotol cocktail. If you've never had Sotol, it's a Mexican spirit. Not tequila and not mezcal, but somewhat similar to mezcal and it does have a bit of a smoky flavor. The Sotol So Good has sotol, butterfly pea, coconut rum, pineapple, lime, and orgeat. It's purple so it makes an impression. It packs a punch too. If you're looking for a cool spot to grab some food and drinks in the heart of downtown Gilbert, when the weather is nice, Sotol is a great choice!

The atmosphere was modern and open, and the…read moreservice started off a bit off-putting, though it improved slightly as the visit went on. I've been wanting to check this place out for a while. Right from the start, the elevator was out of order, which wasn't ideal. When we got inside, the place was mostly empty -- only a couple of other guests -- yet we were told to sit anywhere except along a section of tables by the wall. I pointed out a table at the far end, well away from the entrance, but was directed instead to what felt like the least desirable table, with the reasoning being they might need the space for a large party. After a bit of back-and-forth, they eventually let us sit where we preferred, but it made for a poor first impression -- especially considering the restaurant never filled up. Tried a few cocktails -- they were well made and enjoyable, definitely the highlight of the visit. Overall, good drinks but the initial experience left a sour note -- may or may not return. Saluti.

It was not too busy - most were sitting on the patio enjoying the nice weather or in line at the coffee counter. I got a table for two right by a window. The interior looks modern chic, and has many windows so a lot of natural light was shining through. A server got my drink order shortly after being seated, then my friend arrived, but the server had disappeared for a while. It wasn't super busy, so I'm not sure what the hold-up was. I got the Matcha Strawberry off of their Signature Drinks menu, which tasted fresh and delicious. My friend started with a slice of Banana Choc Espresso Loaf - I tried a bite and it was dense with good flavor, especially the Valrhona chocolate. For brunch I got the Maeva "BEC" (bacon, egg, & cheese sandwich), and my friend got the Treg's Breakfast (eggs, bacon, and sourdough). The shape of the egg in my sandwich was like a square block and unexpected, but it still tasted good. The egg, cheese, pickled peppers, and chili mayo paired nicely together with the milk bun. My friend enjoyed her food as well. I would come back and try some other menu items and dinner.
