    Delicious sour dough pretzel! Huge mustard was not good for my taste. Cheese was yummy
    L M.

    I love this place. This is where the locals come to get away from touristy people and prices. Always a fun vibe here on the weekends. Family and pet friendly too. My only issue is that they cleaned up my table when I was just away from my seat taking video I still had beer and was planning on taking my piece of pretzel home.

    The highlight of the night, beer with Bavarian pretzel.

    Great local vibe here. Came down when there was a band playing, which was awesome. Bavarian pretzel was soft in the inside and the house made mustard was delicious. My only complaint was the swirly fries - love the idea but the batch I got was super chewy. It was my first time having them so not sure if this how they're supposed to be but it tasted like they sat too long on a warmer. Will definitely be back to try this place again.

    Had a party of 30 people for a birthday party and they had live music on the Saturday we went. Staff was accommodating, thanks and shoutout to Gavin for making sure we were taken care of and for making the night run smoothly! Love the vibe and ambiance. Nobody had any complaints. Will def be back.

    Tucked away at the back of vail ranch headquarters but don't miss it! Great beer, I also loved their berry seltzer, so delicious. The smashburger was a show stopper so flavorful and just all around amazing. Their back patio has lots of room for large parties and a bandstand area. My pups also enjoyed the back area and the biscuits. Service was welcoming and attentive.

    Me and their pear cider

    Recently went to visit a friend in Temecula and we happened upon this super cool place. Great vibes, Gavin (our bartender) was funny and matched the brewery's chill energy. The brews (beers and ciders) were amazing and the breakfast burger was just what this girl needed. Will definitely be adding this place on a must visit when we come up here again!

    A blond and down goes nelson IPA.

    First time trying this spot and I really enjoyed it. The beers and the food were really good. I tried the pretzel and the smash burgers and they were delicious. I also tried two beers. The blond and down goes nelson IPA. Both were good and my favorite was the IPA.

    Came here for the first time somewhat spontaneously. Super chill vibe and ambiance. Perfect place for our doggos. It was somewhat of a nightmare to find but we found it !! They have a variety of beers but not all of them are theirs. I got the citrus wheat and it was pretty good. I tried a sample of their sangria and it just tasted like syrup. Not my thing. Their Gatorade seltzer tastes like light blue Gatorade. I was so shook ! Food was pretty good. The breakfast burrito was super good and the green salsa that came with it was to die for. The smash burger was sub par for me. It was greasy and the bottom bun was soggy and doughy. I would probably not order it again. We loved the spiral fries. Super interesting concept! Overall pretty good. I'd stop by if I was ever in the area again !

    Service is absolutely wonderful!!! My husband had to step away to give me the car keys and Nick the bartender took care of his phone, sunglasses and beer. You can't beat that level of care and hospitality. This place won us over immediately. They offer a good variety of craft beer. You can also purchase merch as well. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

    During my brief visit to this brewery, I enjoyed a refreshing Hazy Pale Ale and a Al Pastor Street Taco. The beer was nice and served by a friendly gentleman. Sitting at the counter made for quick service and an opportunity to view their operations, while experiencing the overall vibe. Will revisit in the future.

    Feel better beer!

    Definitely good beer(s)! Cool place to hangout with the boys and have a good time. Good service, friendly bartender. Small bar, 2 tables indoor, but outdoor is where you wanna be. A place to relax after work! Get your cool shirts, hoodies, and hats!

    This spot has it all, great beers on tap with a nice variety of styles. The service is always friendly and welcoming. It has an inside area to sit and watch the games and also a nice big outside area with TV out there as well. A huge plus is that it is kid friendly so bring the family along with you and enjoy some great craft beer. They have games to play as well like jenga and corn hole, on Thursday night they do trivia night which is always a good time. Also great food here, the smash burgers are some of the best I've ever had. They also have street tacos, nachos, and a huge tasty pretzels. You can definitely tell the chef puts love into the food they make. This is definitely a spot you must try when in Temecula area.

The Truffle Fries are delicious, and the Tater Tot Poutine is my favorite!!! Pretty much everything on their menu hits well with my family! My family and I, as well as our friends, really enjoy this place, especially for a family night out. The outdoor ambiance is great and the atmosphere is always welcoming. The staff is great, so friendly and knowledgeable with their selection of beer! What really makes it special is how much fun everyone has, kids and adults. The arcade games bring out that nostalgic, playful side, and it's impossible not to get competitive in the best way. The kids have a blast, and the grown‑ups end up right there with them, laughing and enjoying themselves. It's one of those rare spots where you can relax, eat well, have a drink, and still feel like you're part of the fun. 8 Bit is definitely a go‑to for us when we want something easy, entertaining, and family‑friendly.

Our server was amazing, and the food was super tasty. We ordered a bunch to share--pizza, burgers, shishito peppers, pesto pasta, and goat cheese toast--all of which were delish. That said, there were a few downsides. At one point, the server forgot to put in my order, which was fine since we were all full, but it was a bit funny waiting for a burger that wasn't even in the system. We were excited to hear the band, but with some tech difficulties and having been there over an hour, we decided it was time to head out. Overall, it's a good place with great vibes, good food, and wonderful service. Definitely a spot I'd return to for a relaxed night out.

We still come here for brunch occasionally & taco Tuesdays when they have them (currently not happening). Seating is pretty open & outdoor patio is very nice on a warm day. The restaurant doubles as a club on weekends with a dj. They also offer events during the week at times like a sip & paint or karaoke you just need to check the website to find out what & when. Staff is super friendly & since they are known to get busy at times we have learned to be very patient when this occurs... we know that tge servers are well worth the wait! My favorite dish here is the avocado toast or the tomato addiction appetizer. During Christmas they have really tasty cocktails & decorations to make it feel festive/cozy. Downside is the restrooms: only 2 both co Ed & they often smell. So I often wait until we go somewhere else to potty.

As for me, I enjoy the taste of a good IPA. But wouldn't you know, I only chose one IPA in my beer flight. Everything else was a fruity beer or sour beer, and if I had to do it all over again, I would have went with a flight of all IPAs and hazies. They also serve very light beers with ABVs of 3% and 4%, when you want something to sip that won't get you drunk (like, at all). Solaris is a brewery only, and they don't serve any food. But you can bring food in with you! When I visited with my sisters, it was improv night, so there were people doing standup on the stage. We felt more in the mood to commiserate over childhood trauma and less like chuckling, so we moved outside to the tables on the shaded patio. It was nice to sit amongst the twinkle lights in the evening and drink our beer flights.

    Our group of 12 adults and 8 kids came to the restaurant for a team dinner on a Saturday evening…read more We emailed and made reservations well in advance. The restaurant was surprisingly empty. The first five minutes of the dinner were pleasant with instructions to order via QR code (no problem). However the issues with service were apparent immediately. Orders were placed for refreshments, appetizers, waters, etc. Within 20 mins food began to be delivered with no names/descriptions of the beverage or plate being delivered. Our group was left navigating who ordered what and determine what beer was what and finding the correct owner. Dinner plates delivered no place settings at the table, no condiments (ketchup) and no drinks for more than half of the table. That lefts us going to the bar to retrieve our own cutlery.... Going to the bar to request our waters and our sodas... even after three attempts to ask for our drinks (water, lemonade, soda) the drinks weren't brought out. Many members of our party had their dinner with NO refreshments. We actually ended up serving ourselves our drinks from a dispenser located outside... we also ended up refilling our own drinks Our water was finally brought out at the end of dinner.. It was the worst service I have EVER had. What a shame.

My husband and I really enjoyed YARD HOUSE. We had the Poke Nachos ( 5 STARS ) and 4 cheese Spinach dip ( 5 STARS ) The all cheese pizza was good but a little skimpy on the cheese. I'd say only 2/3 of the pizza had cheese on it. (3 STARS ) The seared ahi was ok. Personally, we prefer it raw and cold so searing took away some of the goodness. Ariana was our server. She is definitely a 5 STAR PLUS PLUS PLUS!!!!!! All in all, I would come back! Prices are more than fair for the amount of food you get during HAPPY HOUR. 3-6 M-F I would venture to say, a little pricey for me to pay full price. If you have kids with you, I strongly recommend HAPPY HOUR. It's so worth the money 100% recommend YARD HOUSE in TEMECULA CA.

The garlic shiitake noodles with Parmesan cheese were absolutely AMAZING -- so flavorful and comforting. I also ordered the poke nachos and they were delicious, especially the sauce they drizzle on top (so good!). And of course, the cheeseburger was bomb.com -- juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly.

I was with a big group and I have to say that our server was exceptional. There were 12 of us and she handled it like a trooper! I should have asked for her name so that I could give her a personal mention. The service was amazing and the food came out nice and hot. I didn't care for the chicken tortilla soup so I opted to get the chili in place of the soup that I couldn't eat. Chili was good with a noticeable beer flavor. The salads were great. I had a caesar and then I had the tomato mozzarella salad. Both were delicious but the tomato mozzarella salad was over the top. It was simple and flavorful with bocconcini, diced tomatoes and arugula with a balsamic vinegar dressing. Everybody enjoyed the clam chowder. The pizza's looked really good. One person in our group needs to be gluten-free and her pizza came out twice the size of a regular personal pizza! It was very impressive. One person shared her fries with me and they were very good. Based on the service alone I will start going back here. I would really like to just order some appetizers next time and share. I remember how good the avocado egg rolls were.

    Rating based on our ridiculous and overwhelming dissatisfaction with our reservation Friday night…read more(5/8/26) with their "host/hostess desk." We had an Open Table reservation for 7 at 9:15pm, didn't get seated until 10:00pm! Checked numerous times and attitude & demeanor of young high school/college aged female employees was off-putting. Not only that, silverware rolled in black napkins had fallen on the floor, and one of the female workers picked the fallen forks & knife up and re-rolled it nicely in the napkin and my wife pointed this out to hostesses. They claimed that they weren't going to place it back to be given to a customer. Buy why would you re-roll it neatly if you're going to place them with the dirty utensils. We felt it would've been re-used had we not said anything to them. Honestly, we don't think it makes any difference making a reservation here versus walking in without one as we waited 45 minutes for a table. We almost regretted dining here as 6 of us were driving back to San Diego afterwards, and 1 of us was driving back to South Pasadena. Now the positive. Our server, night manager, and food ordered made up for the evening. The boneless wings ordered was served cold, but it was re-done and served hot like it should have been. The manager had comp'd a free large pizookie dessert for the inconvenience. The other food ($13 pizookie deep dish pizza & salad combos) and a shrimp entree, and their avocado egg rolls were very good and well priced! We don't know if we'll ever come back here, we may try other alternatives for late night dining, especially if they can't get their reservation logistics and hostess customer service in order! They're in great need to being re-trained and told they need to place themselves in the shoes of their patrons. How would they want their family members treated if they were dining at BJ's? Anyway, huge kudos to our server and the manager who salvaged what would've been one star review scores across the board.
