I’ve traveled all over the world, and this has to be one of my very favorite restaurants. The service with Heather and the incredible food prepared by Heather’s husband, the lovely atmosphere. I love we bring our own wine rather than ridiculously inflated prices at other restaurants. Each appetizer, entrée, dessert has been absolutely exceptional. We so highly recommend this delightful restaurant.

This restaurant is a special place. The love of fine dining and the feeling of a private intimate dinner create the perfect spot for those special moments.

Appetizers were excellent and served very hot. Dinner was good, and dessert was phenomenal. Only complaint was it was too dark in the restaurant.

Now this is the place Bisbee was missing!! This is an upscale restaurant with excellent food and service. The Copper pig is small, about 9 tables and seems to always be booked full - and I totally get why! The service is impeccable, the courses are timed well, the specials are very tempting and the menu is limited but gives plenty of variety.

Yes it is BYOB so know that ahead of time. We didn't bring any wine but we saw other tables did. The food- wow..everything from the soup to the main courses are beautifully presented and are absolutely delicious. I had the pork medallion special of the night and it was just incredible. Large portion and perfectly cooked. We were very impressed!

The prices are also extremely reasonable for the experience and portions you get. We absolutely loved the experience and will be back every time we visit Bisbee!

Amazing food, generous portions. Need reservations but they may seat you if they’re not booked. Accommodating and attentive service. Clean bathrooms. The real flowers and candles add an elegant charm to this cozy establishment. We found a new favorite!

We have been waiting for over a year to try this exquisite gem of a restaurant in the Bisbee hamlet of Warren. Either it was closed, or our schedules didn't work. It was worth the wait, and our only regret is that we hadn't prioritized trying it sooner. Everything was magical, from the laid-back, hippie atmosphere of the street it resides on to the experience once inside the establishment.

What makes this even more notable, and further enhances the experience, is the lack of similar dining establishments in deep southern Arizona. One can find fine dining in Tucson, over an hour away and far too far for a simple evening out. That's not to say there aren't decent or good restaurants in Cochise County. However, none excel in all aspects of an evening out experience, from greeting to service to the quality of the meal.

We had a reservation and were seated immediately at the only table open in the restaurant. That is a plus for their table management. Within two minutes, our waiter appeared with water and bread. Expressing our joy at this proper start to the meal is impossible. In eight years of living in southern Arizona, we have often observed management and wait staff at other establishments taking five minutes or more to arrive at the table. That delay typically foreshadows a lack of basic service that follows.

The bread basket featured freshly baked country bread, accompanied by a small plastic ramekin of butter. We would have enjoyed the butter served more elegantly, but that is a minor matter. The bread was excellent.

We had heard that the restaurant's appetizers are a highlight and decided to try three: a fresh bacon, apple, arugula, and beet salad, Mussels Meuniere (which were specials), and Arancini. The salad was beautifully composed with just the right amount of dressing to highlight the flavors of the ingredients. The Arancini may have been the best I have ever had. Perfectly fried balls of tender risotto set in a delicious tomato sauce were an unexpected treat. The mussels, unfortunately, were the low point of the meal. Overcooked and rubbery mussels in a tepid sauce that lacked depth and flavor were a major disappointment. Still, that was the only disappointment of the evening and didn't detract from the rest of the meal.

We chose two specials for our main course. My wife selected the Salmon topped with a deconstructed Clams Casino. I opted for chicken cutlets topped with eggplant and a dollop of pesto, served in a rich Roman mushroom tomato sauce. The Salmon was incredible. Perfectly cooked and nestled on a plate expertly nappeed with a sublime sauce, it alone excited the palate. But when topped with a well-made clam casino mixture, the dish became an epicurean delight. The chicken was masterfully prepared and was highlighted by the silky-textured eggplant that topped it. The Roman mushroom tomato sauce was well made, my only minor comment being that a different choice of mushrooms might have taken the dish to another level. That said, I would order it again, and probably will if it's on the menu when we return.

The dessert selection had me wishing for a larger stomach. Every item on the menu and the specials board looked enticing. We settled on a Basque Cheese cake with blackberries and bananas. We could not have asked for a finer way to end the evening. Perfectly cooked, silky cheesecake in a subtle white sauce and topped with dollops of fresh whipped cream provided just the right amount of sweet and tart to end the meal.

Tables available and denied service. Not sure why and first and last time to visit this place. Hostess seemed busy with boyfriend and was the easy answer I believe.

I can't really review the food but the service was rough. I got an unpleasant bum's rush from a guy who acted genuinely displeased that I came through their unlocked front door during their posted business hours. Their website says the close at 8pm. They should change that to "closed whenever we feel like it." I understand showing up at 7:50 is a jerk move, but I got there at 7:30 and the kitchen had already been shut down before that. There were maybe 10-12 people still dining. Most places that close their kitchens early are still friendly and inviting, maybe letting you know the grill is closed but you could still get this or that item and/or drinks. Nope, not here. I won't let him sour me on Bisbee but you best call ahead if you have phone service in the Mule Mountains area and see what kind of mood they're in.
