| - This was not my first time at Ocotillo, and I like coming here. 2 weekends ago we had brunch here and the food is good. They have a variety of breakfast and brunch items. My review is as follows for this visit:
1- Reception: The hostes received us warmly with a smile, and as soon as our party was completed we were given the available options and were seated right away.
2- Service: Our server was very friendly and kind. She made sure we were taken care of, as well as the waters and coffee were continuously refreshed/refilled. I am so sorry I do not remember her name because i think she deserves the recognition. She is worthy of my 5 stars.
3- The restaurant/facilities: I love this place, it gets my 5 stars for the set up. Restaurant was clean and the men's restroom was well attended and clean as well. The noise level can be a bit loud, especially on Sunday mornings when they have live DJ, which is a nice touch but at times it can be very loud inside.
4. The food: I got the Summer Fattoush salad which I honestly was not a fan of it. The menu description was good, and interesting because coming from a middle eastern background I know how fattoush is made but this was a modified Fattoush, with ingredients that sounded good, but when i got it, the taste was a bit off. I also made the mistake of adding chicken on the side, but even just the fattoush on its own was so overwhelming, with tons of ingredients that i could not identify each one by just tasting.Again, the description listed all the items, and i got the dish knowing whats in it, but when tasted it, the flavors did not get along very well in my opinion. Fattoush does not have corn, feta cheese, nor almonds in it, so if these were to be removed, it may make the dish more acceptable This os my personal feedback, the dish may work for others. .
