We love Cork Fire Kitchen! Such a great place to take out of town guests. The food is amazing, Views of the golf course are beautiful, and the staff is always very nice. We live in Temecula and this is the first place we think of when we want to go out to dinner. Highly recommend!

We went here for a lunch with a big group. They don’t reserve a reservation you just have to check in. It took a while to find us a table and it was quite busy which is understandable. …

We had a great experience at the olive garden! Mark was our waiter and he was over the top professional, helpful, and super funny. We cannot say enough good things about Mark. The food was also very tasty and filling. Thank you for the breakfast/lunch/dinner wink wink

This was my first time to this restaurant and I plan on returning. First off a Huge bar as you come with mini bars in other parts of the restaurant for quick drink service. Super friendly n helpful bartenders. Our server Angie was sweet, friendly and helpful with what to choose from the menu. They have lots of room inside and a outside dinning area too. The menu has many choices from Rib eyes to burgers. I chose a Bison Burger that was tasty n delicious. It's also leaner meat for those not wanting beef. The burger is also branded with the restaurants name 1909. I plan on returning on my next visit and If I could give them 10⭐️ instead of 5 I would!

I recently visited 1909 and had a solid dining experience. The food was good—nothing extraordinary but satisfying enough. The drink variety stood out with a wide selection to choose from, which was a nice touch. Service was also on point; the staff was friendly and attentive. Overall, it’s a reliable option for a casual meal, though it may not be the place for an unforgettable dining experience.

Stopped by for lunch. We had an amazing time. Food was great. Service was awesome. We sat by the patio, which was amazing. Always a great experience when we are at 1909.

Tried this place for a late lunch whilst visiting Temecula after reading all the good reviews. It did not disappoint! First of all our drinks were insanely good. For food we ended up splitting a pizza and the hot pretzel rolls. The rolls were so fluffy and delicious and the beer cheese was legit. The pizza was next level and one of the best we’ve ever had. Highly recommend checking this place out!!!

their veggie mushroom melt sandwich was the best sandwich I ever had! i love the sauce they use. my husband got the Godfather sandwich which he really enjoyed. Everything we had was so delicious. I like their waitlist system where we can check online and don’t have to wait outside. I can’t wait to go back and try other sandwiches:)

Bright, airy atmosphere. Really friendly service. Even the tap water tasted good. Food was delicious of course and a ton of drink choices. We ordered the Popeye and Olive Oil Salad, Pesto Chicken Sandwich, and Chicken Salad Sandwich. Large portions, too much for us to finish.

Atmosphere and ambience are great! However the food is a disappointment for a place like that. We ordered the salmon toast with eggs which came with a salad and steak and eggs. Dressing on salad was off. Taste of steak was off. Eggs needed seasoning. Not sure if it was not the right morning to go. Restaurant was empty too for a Saturday midday.

The Vineyard Rose is part of a wonderful resort hotel to which we have yet to stay, but we sure want to. The restaurant is so great. This time we had both breakfast and dinner there. The place is as clean and wonderful as it was the last time we were there. it is just lovely and there is dinning inside or outside, both are great. The service is now perfect. They get to you right away and check on you. Your food is delivered pretty fast and it is just great. This time we had for breakfast, the steak and eggs which has this wonderful mushroom seasoning, a tasty flat iron steak with fried eggs and wonderful roasted tomatoes and great potatoes. We loved every bite. We also had, smoked salmon toast which has avocado, cucumber a lemon dill yogurt a bite of caviar and sourdough bread. I don't know if they make it there, but it is great. I could just eat toast and more toast and be happy. It also has a side salad which is crisp and ever so fresh. We returned for dinner a couple of nights later and were just wowed by the selection and the food. We started with Caesar salad and a great Mediterranean salad, which had mixed romaine, the best tomatoes, cucumber, onion, olives, some great feta cheese along with a tasty lemon-oregano dressing. It was all so fresh and crispy. We tried the salmon, with wild mushroom congee, legumes and shaved carrots. It was cooked to perfection and some of the best salmon we have had in Temecula. It was just perfect. The filet we order was cooked rare, exactly as ordered and so tender. It had a mushroom seasoning, the best smoked mashed potatoes, perfect asparagus all in a wonderful deep wine sauce. It was magical. We also had some shrimp because we are spoiled and were in heaven. The crème brulee was very good, not the best I have ever had, but super good. Try their caramel-pecan brownie. it is the best with graham whipped mallow brulée, a tasty chili ash salt with goji berry. That is something you can't really get that good elsewhere. We did not have wine, but we had some great coffee. I forgot my phone, in the car, so borrowed two photos. We had the best time and so will you.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had the pleasure of dining at The Vineyard Rose, and it was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with beautiful decor that perfectly complements the fine dining experience. The menu offers a fantastic selection of dishes, and every item we ordered was meticulously prepared and bursting with flavor. The standout for me was the roasted duck — it was tender and perfectly seasoned. Pairing it with one of their exquisite wines made the meal even more special! The service was impeccable; our server was attentive without being intrusive, providing excellent recommendations and ensuring we felt well taken care of throughout our visit. I also appreciated the attention to detail, from the beautifully presented plates to the thoughtful touches in the ambiance, like soft music and lovely lighting. If you're looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy a remarkable meal, I highly recommend The Vineyard Rose. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their delightful offerings!

walk around vineyard and taste various wines before going this restaurant. You can enjoy a beautiful landscape patterned by vineyards and sunset. I ate Steak+shrimp and Sausage . Both were good.

Great experience for our anniversary! Reserved for Saturday night and not that busy at all, surprising for the atmosphere and quality of food. Service was great and they gave us a free dessert for our anniversary. Prices were reasonable too.

Amazing food in beautiful setting. Very pricey but worth the dollar. The restaurant is in a beautiful winery. While waiting for our table, we walked around and enjoyed the beautiful landscaping and gardens. The restaurant is very busy. So our waiter was overwhelmed and wasn't able to provide proper service. At one point, he had 5 checks in his hands to different tables. Never the less, the food is so good that it's worth the wait. The portion is small, but the calories can be made up by the beautiful wine this winery offers. It's just such a luxury treat and experience. They have kids menu too and our kids loved the mac and cheese. This is a great spot for a special occasion.

I’m seriously shocked this place has so many 5 star reviews. The food is average. I grew up in Downey where there is a ton of Cuban people. I’ve had good Cuban food. This was nothing special. We ordered empanadas (which were good), a salad, and yucca fries. The food took over 40 min to get and half our tables food came 20 min before the other. The yucca fries were cold and the salad was literally just salad and chicken…. This place is not worth the time.

Everything was fantastic. The restaurant was family friendly, with high chairs. The food was delicious (we ate the plates complete with rice, beans, and sweet plantains). The coffee was strong, which I appreciate! Service was kind and there was plenty of seating.

Everything was amazing! Even being busy on a Friday night, wait was reasonable (15-20 min). Fresh ingredients, well cooked and prepared. The “hot chocolate love” is a MUST. Also loved the loaded yuka fries!

While there may be countless restaurants to choose from in the vibrant scene of the Strip, none can compare to the consistent, top-notch culinary experience offered by The Gambling Cowboy. For over 15 years, this restaurant has been my go-to destination, and with every visit, I know exactly what to expect—a flawless dining experience that never disappoints. The Gambling Cowboy isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a place where tradition and excellence meet. Over the years, it has maintained an unwavering commitment to quality, from the freshness of the ingredients to the meticulous preparation of each dish. Whether I'm indulging in one of their signature steaks or savoring a perfectly crafted cocktail, every meal is a reminder of why I keep returning. The atmosphere, the service, and the food all come together to create a dining experience that’s truly exceptional. In a sea of options, The Gambling Cowboy stands out as a beacon of consistency and culinary mastery. For over a decade and a half, it has remained my trusted choice, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything else.

Amazing place, we went because a bunch of people in our area mentioned it, and said how great the steaks are. We ended up going and getting different meals, my wife went with the fish of the day, which was a swordfish over rice, she said she loved it very much. My son and I each had different cuts of steak, i went with a rib eye, it was also a special for the day, and my son went with a traditional cut. The food was very good, no complaints, but i have had better steak, that explains the 4/5. The service from our waiter in particular was great, the only thing was that they didn't really come around for refills, so I was out of water for about 10mins before I was able to flag someone down, kinda sucked, but it wasn't the end of the world. The atmosphere at the place is super awesome, very cool inside, and it sits at the top of the building, which if the weather is good, you can get an outdoor seat and enjoy the view. This is one of the better steak places around the area,.of you're craving, I do recommend this place.The desserts were also very good, the creme brule is made in house, and the chocolate cake is brought in, but both were very good.

Anniversary dinner. Great food, great service and a nice touch with a complimentary chocolate mousse. My husband had the prime rib, one of the nest he's ever had. I had the crab louise which was fresh.and delicious. The shrimp were especially good!. I hired it with he recommended white Merlot.

Amazing place. Very friendly and fast service, beautiful views, sits on the rooftop. The food was great, I got a steak, wife ordered the risotto with a halibut I belive, and we had a calamari appetizer, all the food was fresh tasting and cooked to perfection. The waitress was friendly and quick. A little bit on the pricier side, but it makes for a nice day out or a sate night.

Nice spot. Atmosphere is nice and service people were friendly. Steak came out well well done during lunch time instead of medium rare - like unquestionably - and it was replaced. No big deal but if you're spending money like that and there is a mistake then there should be a comp of something, because there should not be a mistake like that.

At $90 per person I was not impressed. Furniture was uncomfortable and cheap. Seemed like patio furniture. Sides were not creative at all for the price. Owner was dressed in a jogging outfit. I requested an outdoor table with a heater heaters were not working and we were sat on a wobbly table next to the alcohol cage. Only thing that was really good was the espresso martini. However, we did not come for the alcohol. What we thought was going to be an upscale experience. Definitely more of a upscale bar experience. We may come back for cocktails but never for dinner. Again. Very disappointed with all the hype I heard about this restaurant.

Found this restaurant on Google, it seemed good online, and it was. We went with no real expectation, but we quickly realized this is a bit more of a formal restaurant. The prices were all a bit on the higher end of the spectrum, but the dishes were all well made and served. The food is all fresh, and seems to be freshly made. We each ordered a different item so we can taste their variety, the only thing that seemed a bit underwhelming was the price for dish. I somewhat expected a little bit more for what we paid, no real complaints overall though. This is a great date night or a good birthday dinner type of thing, just be ready to spend a bit. The service was good, nice people, and very attentive. It's kind of in the middle of some dealerships and stuff, but the environment made me forget about all of that.

I had the walnut crusted halibut. It was amazing. My wife tried the muscles they smelled a little off. When she mentioned it to our server she changed it to clam chowder with no problem. The clam chowder was perfect. We could not be much happier

Delicious seafood at Bluewater! We started with some of the best Maryland crab cakes I’ve had. For entrees we had the mahi mahi and pan seared scallops which we loved. We also ordered the taste of Temecula wine flight and the waitress recommended excellent choices for us. Overall great service and the food came out very quickly. We sat on the dog friendly patio. Recommend, amazing seafood!

We had the pleasure of dining at your establishment for lunch today and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The culinary offerings were delectable, and the service provided by your staff was exceptional. We were particularly impressed by your establishment's dog-friendly policy and the availability of a special menu for our canine companion. Our dog greatly relished the steak and rice dish, followed by a delightful pupcake for dessert. The weather conditions were also favorable, allowing us to enjoy our meal on the patio.

Came to 1909 to celebrate a birthday in the evening. Our host, Courtney, was AWESOME and attentive. Everyone seemed to have enjoyed the drinks and food. I was excited about the crab and shrimp empanadas but did not expect or enjoy the creamy center (other guests did!) The fish tacos were under seasoned (but the sauce/salsa on top was good, did not have a chance to asked for extra). Side salad was mixed greens and dressing. We sat outside but when we walked through the inside of the restaurant to exit it was pretty warm, glad we were seated outside! It was overall a cool vibe, I'd come back and try something different!

Tried this place for the first time and it was great, they have good drinks and the appetizers we ordered were very good. Definitely recommend and worth trying. I would come back if I am in the area again.

Bjs never disappoints me and I’ve eaten at many locations. We stopped in for lunch and shared a plethora of things ! To start, my bf got a Jeremiah red beer and I got a tropical tequila drink. It was huge but very good. Me and my bf shared the ahi poke appetizer- it was delicious. The chips they used for it had fantastic flavor. I then got a starter wedge salad and my bf got the clam chowder- both were very tasty. We then shared the “kickin crispy chicken sandwhich” which was delicious and not too spicy. For dessert we shared the strawberry shortcake pazookie which was perfectly sweet and cooked.

Alana was our server and she was really FANTASTIC! We were a geoup of 3 adults and 5 kids and she was very accommodating and thoughtful to the kids. She took her time taking our order and made sure we got exactly what we wanted. She was patient and very friendly all around which makes our dining experience wonderful! Thank you, Alana!

Went on a Sunday night and was seated within 10 minutes. Starting with the service: 10/10. Very helpful, patient, and attentive. This was by far the best aspect of being here. Our server was amazing and a few food runners bringing out dishes made everything go very quickly. Properly staffed this night, which is rare nowadays. The food: taste and quality was great. No complaints about how everything tasted, but hesitation on the presentation. I was missing a great deal of sauce on my burger (which was one of the reasons I chose it) but the server was extremely quick to notice and brought out a whole side portion for extra to put on. The avocado on the avocado egg rolls was smushed and just didn’t quite look very appetizing but the taste was great. Could turn some people away, I didn’t really care too much. Overall very happy and the service made up for the lacking presentation of food. The Mac & cheese balls were fantastic. Absolutely no complaint there. Crunchy, two sauce options (both were great) and just highly recommend.

I came here for a birthday dinner, in hopes to have a good dining experience. Between the time we were seated and a server came to take our order, it was twenty minutes. I can understand if the place was packed, but there was only a few tables taken. The food came out pretty fast, but no one at my table was satisfied with the taste. The atmosphere was okay, however the speakers near my table had a lot of static. The band was good, but the volume was excessively loud for the amount of people there. All in all, my expectations were much higher that what my party and I received. The reviews made it seem like the restaurant would be good, which is why we tried it. I'm just surprised that Old Town Temecula has a place with service like this.

We hosted my Parents 33rd Anniversary in a private room upstairs in a at Baileys in Temecula and not only was I and our party of 15 absolutely satisfied and impressed with every single thing. The service was excellent, the girls were very accommodating and attentive. The food was Devine, shout out to the chef and his team, from hors d’oeuvres, salads, and the main entrees it was all cooked to perfection. The ambiance was phenomenal, Over all The experience we had was jaw dropping.

We stumbled upon this place on a Sunday afternoon and the sound of blues drew us in. We sat in the patio and listened to the great music and enjoyed a couple of desserts. The manager Oscar was very accommodating to us while we were seated. Will definitely keep my eyes on this place for future music options.

We came on a Sunday night for dinner. There was plenty of parking. We were seated by the host right away. The atmosphere was beautiful and clean. We sat near the window with the golf course. The waitress greeted us right away and took our drink orders. There were a lot of wine options to choose from. However, we opted for the cocktails. We ordered calamari, cheeseburger, and chicken dishes. Unfortunately, the dishes were extremely salty and fries were super dry. We received the calamari to start, waited another 20 plus minutes for our entree to arrive. The waitress checked on us but we were disappointed that there were no apologies on delay of entrees. We didn't want to make a huge deal once we received our food because if we sent it back, we'd wait even longer to eat our dinner. We still gladly tipped our waitress but we will not come back for overpriced dishes that has a long wait time when the restaurant was not extremely busy. Corkfire, do better and the chef should not apply a lot of salt in our opinion.

We love Cork Fire Kitchen! Such a great place to take out of town guests. The food is amazing, Views of the golf course are beautiful, and the staff is always very nice. We live in Temecula and this is the first place we think of when we want to go out to dinner. Highly recommend!

The food was excellent, featuring fresh ingredients and well-executed dishes. The service was impressively quick, ensuring we were well taken care of. We chose to sit outside on the patio, where a nice breeze added to the experience. The area was clean, and surprisingly, there were no bugs to disturb our meal. Overall, a fantastic spot for a relaxing brunch!

Important to know- the menu is only available through a QR code - no physical copies available I thought this place was just okay. I didn’t realize until after we were leaving and I saw the banner outside that they have the best burgers- I had ordered a salad. If I did return I would definitely try a burger. I ordered the steak pesto salad and the pork belly mac and cheese. The salad was okay, the mac and cheese was delicious but the pork belly was mostly fat pieces so it kinda ruined the mac and cheese. My partner had the wrap which he thought was just okay as well. His fries were great and their ranch dressing was really good! Lots of drinks on tap- I ended up drinking the Figueroa IPA which was yummy.

A must if you’re in Old Town Temecula. Devilicious has something a lot of places don’t have: phenomenal customer service. Our waitress, Valery was amazing!! She was incredibly punctual and made sure my family and I had everything we needed. The atmosphere is great for those who are into a dim lit space. It’s really nice! Last high note is the FOOD. I had the Bacon Burger ($20) and it came with house fries. The roasted tomatoes were an interesting twist and had a unique flavor.

Located in Old Town, enjoy a delicious meal and cocktail at Devilicious. There is a great speakeasy located in a hidden door just as you walk in. Be sure to check it out!

I love live music but not too much to this place because music was too loud. Tables were really close on the stage, so when the band starts singing, I can't even have a conversation with my husband because I can't hear what he was saying. The atmosphere was nice. Service was good. But, I was not happy with my fish taco. It was dry. Dog friendly, tho.

My gf took me to enjoy our lunch there. I love my braised beef and mashed potato, it was good! My gf ordered chicken teriyaki and was also good but the rice was a bit hard. The service was not that good, we waited a long time to checkout and the food took a bit long to arrive and the place was not busy at all, so a bit disappointed. In addition, the portion compare to the price and other places was a bit small.

James made us a very refreshing wine smoothie I know it sounds like a maybe but now it's a must lol. Tyler also provided great service and the short rib was tender and juicy I would highly recommend it if it's your first time here.

We decided to have an early dinner with the family at this establishment. We ordered burgers, lobster garlic noodles, and enjoyed some local beers. The food exceeded our expectations; it was delicious and satisfying. Our server provided excellent service, being attentive and helpful throughout our meal. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience.

My 2nd time here and my gf and I shared the lobster garlic noodle and we were specially told the staff no mushroom yet we got the mushroom and it was soggy and oily! First time we ordered this item it was not oily and it was good! However, love the vibe of the place and the cobb salad was good.

Food was excellent as well as the service! Most definitely recommend plus their everyday happy hour, you can’t beat it !!

Bright, airy atmosphere. Really friendly service. Even the tap water tasted good. Food was delicious of course and a ton of drink choices. We ordered the Popeye and Olive Oil Salad, Pesto Chicken Sandwich, and Chicken Salad Sandwich. Large portions, too much for us to finish.

So happy when they don’t burn the pizza. The crust could have used a bit of flavor to add to the overall pizza experience. Toppings were fresh and delicious. Service was friendly but slow. It is a cute place to get a pizza fix.

Got seated and waitress gave an option for a drink and it was amazing! Ordered a few things but the jalapeño lime carnitas pizza and it was really good. Will definitely keep coming back for it! Amazing place to dine at!
