Under the blossoming palo verde trees, spring has sprung at Ocotillo <\/a>Restaurant in Phoenix. To celebrate the season, guests are invited to taste a new menu filled with spring flavors, surrounded by a beautiful yellow blanket of spring flora on the restaurant\u2019s patio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Focusing on New American seasonal cuisine with a touch of Arizona influence, Ocotillo pays special attention to fresh and seasonal ingredients throughout the year. The new menu features more than a dozen new dishes, acknowledging the season with a variety of flavors and exciting bites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m thrilled to introduce these delicious new dishes to our guests. We\u2019ve worked hard to develop innovative flavor combinations for a new twist on familiar comfort foods,\u201d Chef Michael Shirilla said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlights include a thick-cut bone-in pork chop, served with green beans, miso-mustard vinaigrette, citrus-honey sambal glazed fingerlings, scallions, herbs, and chiles; grilled octopus with romesco sauce, crispy fingerlings, artichoke hearts, grilled lemon, and chimichurri; bucatini with green olives, capers, eggplant, shallots, artichoke, lemon sauce, herbs, basil oil, and crispy garlic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ocotillo has also launched a new cocktail program, featuring dozens of carefully crafted beverages, an expanded wine list, and a wider selection of beers, many of which are sourced from local breweries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ocotillo is situated in Midtown Phoenix and boasts a distinctive indoor-outdoor design that seamlessly blends native desert flora with modern architecture. The restaurant serves dinner starting at 4 p.m. and brunch on the weekends from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information, visit
