Stopped in Sotol for a quick drink with friends and to admire the view. This rooftop cocktail bar offers open-air seating and stunning views of downtown Gilbert. Highly recommend checking it out during sunset.My group was greeted right away. We arrived mid afternoon during their not-so-busy time. We settled in at the bar and my husband and I ordered the following drinks:Smashed Margarita $13Night in Oaxaca $16The smashed margarita comes with tequila, mixed berries, lime, agave, and spicy bitters. It was refreshing with a nice balance of tart and spice. The night in Oaxaca features mezcal, grapefruit, lime, orgeat, and amaro. This was a beautiful drink with a mix of citrus and smoky flavors. I enjoyed both, but enjoyed the night in Oaxaca more, as I tend to prefer mezcal over tequila.Though we didn't stay long, we had a great experience and would definitely return!

Sotol Modern Cocktail Kitchen has some solid food and drinks, but the overall experience was just okay. The flavors were good, and the cocktails were well-crafted. We especially liked the guac and tacos--both were fresh and flavorful.That said, the space itself was really small, which made it feel a bit cramped. Also, be prepared to walk up a good amount of stairs before even getting to the restaurant, which isn't ideal if you're not expecting it.Overall, the food and drinks were enjoyable, but the setup wasn't the most comfortable. If you don't mind a tight space and a bit of a climb, it's worth checking out.

Sotol is located in the heart of Downtown Gilbert.. A fun place to unwind on a weekend with friends, alone, siblings or with a date. The vibes are fantastic and get you in the mood for a fun long weekend, if you end up staying back in town.The drinks are amazing as always, if you like to experiment with your cocktails, do try their - Sotol So Good, Night in Oaxaca, Devil's Heart, Smoked Old Fashioned and Mesquite Old Fashioned and Prickly Paradise. For food, if you want to indulge, they don't have a lot of options given it is a cocktail bar, but their Copper Star Burger is the best! Do try their Rooftop Hummus and Loaded Yucca Fries as well!! Service is good, however, on a busy night they can make you wait for a table and service can be slow...so plan your evening in advance and early, if you have to head elsewhere for a night about town!!

I don't understand the negative reviews of this place! This is by far the coolest bar in downtown Gilbert! They have super good drinks and amazing views and it's a pretty chill atmosphere. It's a really cool place to stop in for a drink or two.

We came here for a drink with good friends. While the bar is cute and does provide amazing views of downtown Gilbert, the atmosphere was completely ruined by their speakers which was also acknowledged by the servers. It was very hard to even hold conversations. They should have just turned them off. The drinks were decent. I ordered the Sotol so good and it was tasty, smoky and fruity. My friend ordered the Daquiri and she loved it. Husband ordered the smoked old fashioned and he thought it was great. The bar is located in the 3rd floor and you do have to walk up. Overall, not sure if I would return as there are definitely other bars that offer a great vibe and have amazing menus.

Went out for a drink in appetizers Friday evening in downtown Gilbert. Wanted to try someplace a little bit different that we have not been to. I will say the climb to the top of the three-story building that this restaurant is in can be difficult if you have any aches and pains in your knees or ankles. Staff was very friendly. Great view of downtown Gilbert from the patio. We got an appetizer and two drinks. Reasonably priced for sure and the quesadilla we ordered was delicious. A lot of cheese and the chicken was flavorful. Just a word of warning The restaurant is very small. Maybe 10 tables. There is some seating along the railing but I wouldn't recommend it for a larger group because you won't be sitting together.

Perfect place to get away from the chaos of downtown Gilbert Road. The mixologist put together the specialty drinks to perfection. Two of us were there early in the evening on a Friday holiday weekend. I was surprised that it wasn't packed at the time we went & grateful. Noise level was perfect at that time of night. I'm hard of hearing and could have a conversation. Service was quick and we got to enjoy our evening stopping in a few places in downtown Gilbert. Will come back and sit it the bar sometime. Great vibes

My office held our Christmas party here - rented the entire place out, in fact. It's such a cute and cozy place in there. The capacity is 85 and there were 75 of us at the party, so it was almost a full house. But it was the perfect setting for a little office party.Everyone agreed that the service was 11/10! There were plenty of waiters and bartenders who made their rounds many times throughout the night. They consistently kept us updated on when the food was coming out and to never hesitate if we had any questions or concerns. There was a drink menu with several cocktails, and there was a "smashed margarita" on the menu. I ordered that because you can't go wrong with a marg, and fortunately, the bartender asked me if I liked spice because the margarita was spicy. Thank god she mentioned that because I told her to hold the spice. I then used my other two drink tickets for two other cocktails on the menu - both were very delicious. There was also some food prepared, and even though I didn't try anything, everyone else said it was good. The spread certainly looked tasty.The atmosphere, drinks, and service here were truly a vibe - such a great place to hold a party.
