Al and their team are incredibly talented in the kitchen. The meal was hands down the best food I have ever eaten. Everyone raved about the food, drinks and service all night. The waitstaff was kind and helpful. The drinks were stellar, the atmosphere was perfect. Thank you so much to the whole staff at Ocotillo for helping us create an amazing night we will never forget. I could not recommend Ocotillo enough.“

“Bright open space is conducive for a casual dinner with friends or family. Dinning room was clean, bright and comfortable. Staff was friendly and personable.

Drinks were delicious and well crafted. The house margarita was not too sweet and had a balanced flavor.

Portions work generous, allowing for two meals. The chips and guacamole provided enough for 3 PLUS an addition to our meal s(guacamole).

Food was was very good and presented nicely. The bowls were made with a variety of vegetables making it colorful and delicious. The meat in the bowl was flavorful and nice texture (NOT chewy!).

Overall, a lovely dinning experience and look forward to a other visit!“

“Found this place down a small side street in the heart of Portland and decided to stop in for Lunch. We did not want to eat lobster and seafood and this turned out to be a fantastic option. Super friendly, great simple food, good prices. Respectable selection of alcohol.

No complaints, can't think of anything negative at all even. Only wish is that it would be nice if they had a kids menu.“
