Located at a golf resort, the ambience was nice and there was live entertainment on a Friday night. It was busy but not overly crowded with large groups. Service was average, but we were checked on and the wait was not overly long. Our meal of Calimari and Choppino was good and didn't have any issues, but would not be considered gourmet. The location was the best reason for stopping there as it is convenient to local Wineries and the Pala Casino. read more

Not worth your time. Only option within the Pala Mesa Resort, so it's not like you'd have much of a choice if you're here golfing or staying at the hotel. Ordered our food and it took almost 40 minutes to arrive, even though there was quite literally 5 other people sitting down here. The food wasn't bad but nothing special. We ordered the GRILLED CHICKEN SANDWICH, CRISPY CHICKEN SANDWICH, & PRIME RIB DIP SANDWICH. read more

Decent place to stay if having a wedding in fallbrook like what we did. Frequented the restaurant often for breakfast lunch and dinner. I liked the steak and eggs even though the steak was much smaller the second day. Happy hour had good deals and the service was solid. Wouldn't go out of my way to come here but a great option for staying at the resort read more

I would much rather golf than eat here. Disappointed that my avocado toast did not use fresh cut avocado, more of a paste. The pickled radish tasted old and the bread was not even toasted. I asked for the egg and feta on the side. I do not recommend the avo toast. The service was pretty slow for early Saturday morning, but the views of the golf course are nice. read more

Terrible! The champagne was flat, and turned into vinagar taste. They replalced with a new one and better. However, the kobe hamburger was cold and completely RAW! Waitress returned 45 minutes later after others had already eaten. The fries were so salty that it was clear there must have been an accidental pour. The manager sat at a table and drank three wines, and two of the waitresses stood in front of our table dancing, preventing us from watching the concert. The kicker, they charged us for full price for a meal that was absolutely inedible. Yep, $60.00, for that lovely experience and pray I dont get sick. On a good note, it was Holloween, and the band was absolutely incredible! ​​ read more

Dined here on 12/15 at 4pm. Nice ambiance. Female could have been a little more outgoing and not so shy. You could tell she just wanted to take the order and go. She seemed nervous. Baked avocado was ok. I wanted to try it because it seemed interesting and different, but I would not order it again. There was nothing that wowed me with the flavor. The rest of the food was good and tasty. Brussel sprouts are delicious. read more

The restaurant is inside the hotel in the Golf course. The view is beautiful. If you want to relax and have drinks with friends this is a nice place. The alcohol drinks are great. The bar tender makes them strong. The food I do not recommend. We waited around 30-40 mins to get our food. The food had no flavor. Recommend this place only for Drinking and golfing but not for food. read more

I planned our 20th anniversary party at Aquaterra and it was a luncheon. We had seven people and it was a beautiful setup, we sat outside overlooking the golf course, they have a new menu. I wouldn't say a lot of new items but they have a new menu. I had the grilled chicken sandwich and that was very good, but this review is about the server. Matthew. Matthew had just started a week ago and he was spot on. He was attentive, he was friendly, he was very polite, he served the food in a timely manner. He had a personality and a sense of humor. He's going to be a great waiter. read more

I'm going to start with a positive...the food was quite spectacular! We were a party of 12 and everyone ordered something different. ALL of the commentary was ultra positive...great presentation and everything was super tasty! I had the prime rib dip sandwich and my husband had the patty melt- both were amazing! The only slight negative was that the fries were sorta mediocre but the Cole slaw was yummy! The biggest issue was service. There were only 2 girls serving and they were run ragged. They did their absolute best but WHY on a weekend when they know they have at least one large wedding party booked AND they have all the golfers who will be coming in after 18 holes would they not prepare better?? I don't blame our server who was hustling as fast as possible but not once did I see a manager of any kind step in to help. They definitely need to get more help because even with delicious food... if service is non-existent it just want matter. read more

Stopped in for food and drinks after golfing with some friends. I got great service from the bartender Mike, the older white dude who might be new because I hadn't seen him last year when I stopped in a few times. He was very personable and attentive with my group. I got a couple Jack and Coke's and some appetizers. The food and drinks were good but the service was great so I'll happily be back next time I golf Pala Mesa. I think good food/drinks are important but stellar service is what makes people want to come back, and Mike did a great job read more

Had the Prime Rib Thursday special which was superb! The service was excellent! The Lobster Bisque however was lacking any Lobster or flavor. When I asked about this the server told me they run it through a blender?!?! Did not enjoy that part of the meal but will try again soon! read more

I was hesitant because of the recent reviews, but since we were staying at the hotel, and it was raining, we thought we'd try it. LOVED IT! Everything was delicious - squash, steak, drinks, and BRUSSELS (and I'm a connoisseur!). I never leave reviews but felt compelled to. Monica, our sever, is a jewel. Several regulars came to say hello to her while we were eating. read more

The food is mediocre and the service is worse. They were understaffed considering the resort occupancy which resulted in slow service and then rude responses when we were served. I don't blame the few servers for their poor attitudes as it seems they were left to fend for themselves by "resort" management. read more

Came here for my grandmothers birthday for a 1PM reservation. We were promptly seated and the staff was very accommodating to my elderly grandparents. The highlight of the meal was the service. I ordered the Drive-In Burger and added avocado and bacon to it. When it arrived I was quite bummed to not see the most fresh avocado placed on top. It was still okay to eat but definitely never preferred. Overall the meal was decent. My grandparents were happy and that's what mattered most on this day. This place has a lot of potential but as of right now, it's got work to do. read more

Here in aquatrra my wife and I really enjoy the atmosphere watching Padre games at least three times a week. The service is impeccable the menu is equally impeccable my biggest complaint here goes. As you see in my picture you need a large Mega pint of lemonade or your favorite chilled drink along with your personal and favorite fan battery backup to bring in because the AC does not work it is 95 outside and 95 inside. My wife and I have been coming here to aquaterra over a year and in this period of time the AC has not worked in the restaurant so hopefully the owner or owners will see what extent their patrons are willing to go to to eat at this restaurant. We have heard for years that they're going to remodel well that ship is sailed folks that's remodel quit using it as an excuse!! I am giving the restaurant five stars because once again the service and the food are impeccable just please Pony up and fix the AC Mr owner! read more

Went there on a Saturday for lunch. Here's the thing: they serve breakfast until 10, then it's the lunch menu. No brunch. But we did order a bottle of Prosecco and a side of juice and made our own mimosas! We ordered the French dip sandwiches and they were large enough to bring home half for another meal later. They're getting ready to remodel the whole resort so you may see the start of construction in some places. Sit outside on the veranda on a sunny day - it's beautiful! read more

Still great food here. As of this update, the resort is under construction so be prepared to be inconvenienced to a nominal degree including parking lot entrance/exit, building thoroughfare and restaurant seating. This place is still good for a notable meal, cocktails and atmosphere. Do stop in. Dicks read more

Food was yummy.. double beef hamburger and great fries we shared. Their side salad was fresh with cucumber, tomato, red onion, with mixed greens. Beautiful setting.. read more

If anyone in your party has an allergy, do not eat here! Their restaurant is not allergy friendly. And when you ask if your food contains an allergen they will take it away and still charge you for it. Poor service, our waitress Arianna was unaccommodating, did not know their limited menu at all. Haven't been here in years and unfortunately recommended to my friends as we were in the area. Will not recommend again. Do yourself a favor keep driving! Giving 1 star because I can't give 0 read more

The food is quite good but the wine list is lacking. I have had the salmon tacos which are really delicious and the tempura asparagus is yummy but it would be nice to pair these dishes with a nice wine. read more

We stopped in for food on a road trip and our server was exceptional. The food was good and the ambiance was nice but honestly, the star was our server Andi. She really deserves to be recognized for her efforts. We'll absolutely be back the next time we head into town. read more

Service started out great and then the server got a few more tables and then we got forgotten. Drinks were not refilled including water, food was not prepared as described on the menu. Sat for long periods of time waiting for our server. Nice atmosphere, food was tasty . Will give it another go in hopes the service is better next time. read more

We were seated quickly. The view of the golf course is amazing. The staff were attentive and very friendly. Food was amazing although my friends steak was not cooked as directed. Drinks were delicious. Would recommend! read more

Visiting from out of town, and had lunch here on beautiful day. The service was great as everyone was attentive and friendly.

Highly recommend! read more

Everything was wrong. Food: Ordered crab cakes were just slightly large than a silver dollar and unfortunately my friend and I split this plate as an appetizer. Boy were we surprised! Also, we had read the menu prior to arriving and low and behold, 4 of the 5 dishes we ordered were no longer on the menu. Please update the menu on your site. Service: There was five of us dining, when she finished the taking the order she didn't know who got what and who was splitting two plates. Ambiance: It was very hot in the restaurant, we asked the waitress to turn on the closest fan. We asked 3 times and finally one of my friends got up and went to the bar to ask for the manager. The bartender asked why and assured her the fan would be turned on. The fan was turned on, but I believe the bartender should not have asked why she wanted to speak to the manager. read more

The views are pretty. I'm not too impressed by the food. The French toast was so bland. I didn't even taste cinnamon, I was disappointed. Just a plate with semi soggy bread...oh, let's not forget the pretty flower. read more

4.25 Stars. Came for lunch on Sunday. Had a couple Bloody Mary's which were quite good, house made, not from a pre-mix. We enjoyed these while watching golfers hit off the first tee. It was really entertaining! Going slowly, we finished our drinks and ordered a bottle of wine. They were out of it, but tasted us on 4-5 others candidates, and we finally decided on a Viognier from Santa Barbara. Wine prices are quite fair. Ordered Vege burger and fish tacos, both very good, French fries came with burger and were delightful as well. Service was excellent, and overall. If the place seems a bit outdated decor-wise, the overall experience was "We are coming back" to enjoy another Sunday here. read more

Our server Sammy was the best!! So attentive and friendly- he really made our experience great

Average at best and spendy. The staff was nice but the good was small and bland. The scallops were a particular dudsapoinment.

My family and I had a reservation at 11AM the morning after a family member of ours got married. We've had the reservation for about a week and were told that we were able to split the bill in four. Upon arrival we were ignored by multiple staff members, and once we were acknowledged, we were taken to a large table left by ourselves. It took about 20 minutes for any server to ask us what we wanted to drink & another 10 minutes for us to order. Once we started ordering, both servers were adamant at the fact that we could only split the bill into two, which they had to speak to the owner about and clarify the lack of communication. It took at least 10 to 15 minutes for food to come out which was amazing however, it was coming out in random orders and at one point five of our guests, out of a party of at least 15, did not have their meals, two of which were small children under the age of six. The servers are incredibly rude, the service is atrocious. One of the guests had to wait so long for the food that they opted to take the whole meal off in total and not eat. It's such an unfortunate circumstance that a place with great food has such a terrible, awful service. 10/10 would not recommend and I really wish we had a better experience. We have also requested for a manager twice and each time we were deliberately ignored. read more

My husband golfs at the course where the restaurant is located and had heard it had reopened. We decided try it on a Tuesday because we saw they had prime rib. When called in the order they advised the prime rib was only served Wednesdays. It was served with mashed potatoes, asparagus and carrots. It was a good meal. We had also tried the fish and chips. The fish was a huge fillet which was good quality. The fried chicken and waffles was good. The waffles has a sweet crispy taste. They served with a sweet & spicy syrup . I didn't care for it but wanted to try. They served Gravy as well. I ate that separate. Overall would come again. Not pictured was the prime rib nachos. Which were so good they were gone before I could take a picture. read more

This place is a joke. They close at 7pm on the dot everyday of the week and sometimes earlier if they feel like it. I went in there tonight at 6:55 pm for dinner and drinks and the place was packed but not accepting anyone after 7 even though the business seemed to be thriving. This restaurant obviously isn't concerned about making money or taking care of the local community. This is the 4th time I've showed up here at dinner time and they're closing. My bottom line is don't waste your time going there unless you show up at 3 pm. read more
