| - I really like wine. That said, I was pretty happy that Postino came to Gilbert, and I had another wine bar to frequent. They are almost always on a wait so get there early! The bruchetta boards are delicious- I have yet to try a variety that I don't like. I also came for breakfast once, and that food was good too.
The only downside of Postino for me is the service. It's definitely hit or miss. For instance, on my last visit, my girlfriends and I waited over an hour and 20 minutes for our food. The server who took our order was oblivious to our problem, even after we told her we were still waiting (after 45 minutes). She was either too busy with other tables or just didn't care. I'm confident that if there hadn't been a shift change during our wait, we never would have gotten food. While we were still waiting for our meal, the second server asked us if we would be ordering dessert, and once we told her what was going on, she immediately took care of it. She put our order in again- who knows what happened the first time around- and we had food in 10 minutes. We didn't ask for anything to be comped, but she did it anyway. She was apologetic and gracious, and we appreciated her taking initiative and responsibility for something that was definitely not her fault. Her service turned around our experience. I just wish I had caught her name to ask for her section next time.
