I've been coming to Europe for years. I get and my friends get Exceptional service which is rare, and Marlene sets the standard. Our waitress Marlene was/ is attentive without being intrusive, professional yet incredibly personable, and handled everything with ease and confidence--even during a busy rush. What stood out most was her ability to make us feel genuinely valued. She checked in at all the right times, kept everything running smoothly, and had such a positive, uplifting presence. It's clear she takes pride in what she does, and it shows in every interaction. She turned what could have been just another meal into a standout experience. The restaurant is lucky to have her--she represents the very best of hospitality. Highly recommend, and because of her I look forward coming to Europe! Monique Van Noy read more

Well beyond my expectations- so very good. The Sea Bass entree was the best I've had in a long, long time. Our server, Mark, made our dining experience extra special. Thanks, Mark!!! read more

Amazing experience at Bolero for it being our first time. We did have a reservation for a party of 11 celebrating a birthday. We did wait a bit but not so bad for it being a busy Saturday afternoon. Our server Marlene was amazing and attentive making sure everything was good. Food was amazing, we tried the paella the portion for 4 is pretty big. My favorite was the linguini de mariscos. I also really enjoyed the Caesar salad. Super light and it's wrapped on jicama paper definitely a must to try. read more

Tapas Tuesday are out on the patio and first come first serve for tables. You grab a table and a server will come help you. It was busy and the service was a bit slow, but the love music playing was amazing and filled the time. We tried all the food on the tapas Tuesday menu and the best thing was the steak. All the other dishes were decent. Be warned that their credit system populates suggested tip for 18+% based on the total including tax, which inflates the tip. read more

Bolero is a Spanish restaurant located inside Europa Village Wineries & Resort in Temecula Wine Country. Their menu is tapas-style so you order plates and share among your party. There's a section for the restaurant that includes both indoor and outdoor seating. There's also an adjacent building for their wine tasting which looked to have a ton of people. We were seated outside where we had a view of the vineyards. SALMON & AHI TUNA CRUDO ($25) - the sauce was refreshing and spicy. The chips that came with it were hard to scoop into the crudo so we had to use our spoons to eat. 4/5 EMPANADAS ($22) - there are both chicken and beef flavors. They were crispy and I preferred the chicken. 4/5 CROQUETAS ($15) - the croquettes themselves were decent with a crunchy outside and soft potatoes inside. I especially liked the short ribs underneath. 3.5/5 LINGUINI DE MARISCOS ($42) - this was definitely our favorite dish. The sauce was flavorful and I liked the big shrimp and scallops. The cheesy bread was also nice to dip into the sauce. 4.5/5 BOLERO PAELLA ($75) - they say it takes 45 minutes but for us it only took 30. I liked the beef, lobster, and shrimp on top but the rice was a little soggy. I would've liked more socarrat (the crispy layer on the bottom) because there really wasn't much at all. 3.5/5 For drinks we ordered the smoke & mirrors ($18) and isla rosada ($18) which were both good. We made reservations online ahead of time and I recommend you do the same. It was packed on Saturday evening and we overheard that it was about a 2 hour wait without a reservation. read more

Had a reservation for 8 pax, we came a little bit early and had our table ready inside. Its weekend, there's a guy who's playing music in the corner, not too loud just enough that you will enjoy listening while others are busy talking to each other. Paella order took a while to prepare and were aware of that so we order as soon as we sat in our table, the male server is attentive, busy Saturday but he was able to serve us on time for drinks and food order. I like the way they prepare my espresso martini, we order a bottle of red wine ( Cabernet sauvignon) Paella was ok, Buratta salad same, the Brussel sprout stood out, so good. read more

Finally got to use my wine membership at Europa Village and what better way than with dinner at the Bolero Restaurant. I made a reservation through OpenTable, which was quick and seamless. We arrived about 10 minutes early for our 7:45 PM reservation, checked in with the hostess, and were told we'd receive a text when our table was ready. Right on cue, at 7:48 PM, we got the notification. After checking back in, we were promptly escorted to our table. My first impression of the interior was a bit mixed. It's definitely a nice space, but the overall vibe felt slightly off. The layout seems like it would benefit from a more open concept the current flow makes it feel a bit informal. That said, the crowd is a blend of guests coming from tastings, hotel visitors, and locals just enjoying a night out, which might explain the atmosphere. Our server, Tina, took about 15-20 minutes to greet us and take our drink and appetizer orders. Once things got going, though, the experience improved significantly. The food was delicious definitely the highlight of the evening. We shared the empanadas and garnachas to start, both excellent. My in-laws ordered a dish with beans and sausage, while my partner and I went with the steak plate. Everything was cooked perfectly, and the chimichurri sauce really stood out. We paired dinner with a bottle of Tempranillo (my pick), which complemented the meal beautifully. As the evening wrapped up and closing time approached, we did feel a bit rushed to settle the bill. I mentioned my wine membership to Tina and provided my ID for verification. The check came back shortly after with the membership discount applied. Parking was easy there's plenty of open ground parking, so no hassle there. Overall, a great meal with a few service and ambiance hiccups, but definitely worth a visit. read more

We had the best dinner after a long day of wine tasting here. We ordered several plates, but the one that stood out to me the most was their seabass and to my surprise their Cesar salad. The Cesar salad was very unique in nature, it was displayed in a burrito shaped form, so delicious! read more

Don't miss out. Weekday dinner around 5:30p.m. Seated immediately. Staff friendly, welcoming and attentive. We had two appetizers and drinks. Cauliflower and Potato Balls both excellent. We shared a pork centered paella which was good, but we were too full to finish. Paella just so so. But everything else was fantastic. read more

This was my third visit here and it has been consistently great! The presentation on food itself is always beautiful and the flavor delicious. I was however disappointed with the Pastel de Chocolate. Although it was presented beautifully, it didn't have much stage presence as I thought it would. Our server checked on us frequently and our glasses of water filled. If there is one thing I could change with the restaurant, it would be the chair or table height. The tables are a little higher than usual and eating isn't at a comfortable position for me. I am petite so the table height is probably meant for average or tall height. It definitely isn't ergonomic in my opinion. My absolute favorite dish was the brussels sprouts. I wasn't expecting the sprouts petals (I should probably read the fine print), but was pleasantly surprised. The combination of Brussels sprouts, goat cheese, and the pomegranate jewels melting in your mouth, are just divine. I would come here again, but would make certain to find a better table. read more

We had a great time having some tapas and wine here. The staff was phenomenal -- Tami was our server and she was friendly, and most importantly helpful. She gave us feedback on the dishes we chose and helped me to figure out what wine to choose after a quick conversation about my preferences and the flavor profiles on the list. She was wonderfully attentive. The ambiance was beautiful - we arrived around 5pm right before the dinner rush and stayed 'til sunset. We got the croquets, churrasco steak and chorizo with fries, the garlic shrimp, and the cobbler -- all well cooked, aesthetically plated, and the perfect amount of food. We're excited to bring back friends for the paella! read more

One of my favorite places for a date night! I absolutely love it here--the empanadas are amazing, the vibes are perfect, and every staff member is super kind and welcoming. It honestly feels like a little romantic getaway in Italy, all just minutes from my house. Every visit is a great time, and it's the perfect spot to enjoy good food and a lovely atmosphere with someone special. Highly recommend! read more

Europa takes you to another world! The restaurant was busy on a Saturday afternoon, reservations are recommended. Their paellas are the best I have had outside of Spain. A small is enough to feed 2 or 3 people. The calamari was delicious and crunchy. The bar and indoor is small, most of the restaurant seating will be outdoors, being a light sweater if dining late in the evening. read more

I give Bolero 4 stars for the food and service. Service was ok, nothing exceptional. Atmosphere is nice. We sat outside and it was a beautiful evening. We came here for my husband's birthday and he really enjoyed the food. We ordered the Caesar salad and tomahawk steak. Both very delicious. The steak was cooked well. We will definitely come back. If the service was better, this place would be a 4.5 or 5. read more

Perfect place for Christmas Eve lunch! The restaurant had cute decor. They were able to accommodate for a same day reservation. The food was delicious and our server Jeri was next level. We ordered a couple apps to start. The calamari was good and comes with a side of green sauce that has a mild heat. Both paired well. The calamari had a light coating and was tender. Next we had the duo of deep fried empanadas. Mild chicken atop red sauce and slightly spicy ground beef atop a spicy green sauce. Both were really good. Then for our main, we opted for the Tomahawk and Paella. Wow! I didn't expect it to arrive and be carved table side. They wheeled the hanging tomahawk on a cart with the paella. Our server brushed the steak with melted butter and used a torch to sear the outside of the steak a bit more. Then she carved it and sliced it for easy family style servings. While I was expecting the paella to be served on a paella pan, I was a little bummed it was transferred from a flat bottom pan to a ceramic dish but the paella pan for this serving size would probably be too big for the table LOL For dessert we ordered the banana pudding brûlée, churros and chocolate dip, and berry cobbler. They were a nice finish to the meal. When my brother in law ordered a glass of red wine (I forget which one), our server Jeri came back with 2 red wines and asked him to try both as she thought he might enjoy the other one a bit more. Well guess what. She was totally right!! She also went above and beyond and surprised them with a complimentary anniversary dessert with a warm lemon cake, Tahitian vanilla ice cream and strawberry. Really good! Would probably order that again. read more

What an absolute experience!! I was greeted by Rebecca and from the very beginning she was FANTASTIC!! Her explanations of the wines were so simple to understand and made me feel at ease about trying wines I've seriously never heard of. She was very busy yet it felt like she never missed a beat, every single time I was down to a sip or two, she was there to ask me what I thought about my current tasting so she could suggest my next glass. I've been to several wineries in the area and I must say, this is a busy winery, but even with all the hustle and bustle about, Rebecca made it feel like you were her main priority which made me feel like I was in my own world of pure enjoyment. Great atmosphere! There are a lot of servers at this winery and I'm more than sure all of them are great, but if you see Rebecca, I'd try to get in her line, her smile and presentation of the wines are second to none!! THANK YOU Rebecca for one of the best wine tasting experiences I've ever had. You are a ROCKSTAR! *this was in the Bolero tasting room, not the restaurant read more

We got recommendation from another and I can see why. From walking in, to ordering and to eating it was a lot of wows. Our server was helpful in sharing popular dishes as it was hard to decide with so many tasty options on the menu. The atmosphere was relaxed with lite music playing in the background. We ordered a bunch of small plates to try like the empanadas, ceviche, calamari, diver scallops, croquetas. Everything was amazing. We had room for dessert and got the chocolate molten cake. I highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

We celebrated our anniversary here and the experience was fantastic. Best restaurant in Temecula to enjoy great Spanish wines and paella. They're located on left side of Europa Village property. Parking is free and ample. The atmosphere is sophisticated, yet modern and warm. We had reservation and got seated immediately inside when we arrived. Our server was so friendly and helpful in sharing recommendations. We kicked off our celebration with a few of their tapas. Chicken empanadas was loaded and very tasty. The grilled octopus was tender and flavors match well with lentils and cherry tomato drizzled in olive oil. OMG! Watermelon salad with creamy whipped burrata cheese and mint was so refreshingly good. The perfect summer salad indeed. For our main, we got Mariscos & Chorizo Paella, which takes 45 minutes to prepare. Its comes in 2 sizes. We got smaller size and it was huge, easily shareable 2-3 people. Flavor profile was amazing and seafood tasted fresh. Even the rice was cooked to perfection. New York Steak with petite potato was cooked medium rare and paired nicely with chimichurri and guajillo sauce. We planned to do more wine tasting afterwards, so we passed on having wine with our meal. Desserts are must. We finished our meal with churros and almond olive oil cake (Torta de Bolero) for dessert. Both were amazing! We also got complimentary break pudding with vanilla ice cream to celebrate our anniversary. Quite delectable. All in all, we enjoyed everything and very satisfying meal. Thank you Bolero for memorable time. We can't wait to come back. read more

This place was rooooouuggh on service. We had to flag down our server for everything, silverware and napkins for everyone, ask where the wine was, had to ask twice to order food, food came out at wildly different times, had to ask three times for the check. It was just ROUGH! I felt like an absolute afterthought here. The food was good, but pricey. For a price point that high I expect the service to be pretty good. But honestly chik fil a will check on you more. We asked for the check and a manager offered to give us desserts for free and not only did he not bring the check but they never brought desserts! I didn't even want desserts but it was so rude to offer and ghost us. The food was good but not for the really rough service and the really long wait. One of our friends had to send back a steak because it was nearly raw and it took THIRTY MINUTES to come back. Everything about this dinner was frustrating. I probably won't come back. It was just too slow. Pallea was gluten free but not worth the slowness. read more

The bright fresh ceviche definitely set the tone of this establishment. Perfectly balanced citrus that brings out the sweetness of seafood without overpowering it. The rack of lamb that followed after was just as impressive, beautifully seasoned with a well herbed crust. What really elevated the entire experience, though, was Marlene. She knew the menu inside and out, offering thoughtful recommendations and explaining dishes with confidence and clarity. Her timing was spot-on, and her presence felt attentive without ever being intrusive. Service like that doesn't just support a meal--it enhances it :) read more

Bolero Restaurante is located in an Temecula winery, offering all-you-can-eat weekend brunch with seafood and meat options. I finally had a chance to visit after my partner went earlier this year with friends and I was excited to finally try their food for myself. We had a reservation booked in advance so getting seated was very quick. We received a booth to sit in, and was allowed to grab items right away. My favorites were the empanadas and prime rib eye, both were savory and full of flavor. I was not impressed with the cold seafood section and desserts though, as they were mostly pre-made items displayed nicely. Overall, for a $60 buffet, I thought that it was definitely worth it. Not like Wynn Buffet in Las Vegas for the same price point, but still delicious enough where I thought it was worth the money. read more

I love the ambiance of this winery. It took a minute for us to find the restaurant but my group enjoyed walking around the beautiful grounds. We sat outside to enjoy the great weather. Once we got seated it did take about 10 to 15 minutes for someone to take our drink order but the staff was keeping us updated that they would be with us shortly. I would have loved to have gone here for dinner because the dinner menu looked fantastic. However I was only there a short time, so brunch it was! I ordered the eggs Benedict and they were delicious. Everyone at my table really enjoyed everything they ordered. I would definitely love to go back in the evening and try the dinner menu. The staff was all very friendly. A wine tasting from here is also on my list of things to do. read more
