Tucked in by Trader Joe's so parking can get sketchy, but this place is worth it. My daughter and two granddaughters met me here for lunch and we loved everything we tried. The Millionaire's BLT was fire The garlic parm fries were hard to put down. Glad there were four of us so I didn't eat them all. The customized bowls were filling and delicious! There is a lot of outdoor seating but it was hot so we sat inside. Not too roomy in there to be honest and I'm sure we were loud, but the staff didn't seem to mind us hanging out for an hour. This is definitely a place I will revisit! read more

This place was okay. They had a 4-star rating and there was a majority of good reviews. But I wasn't impressed, there was nothing special about this place, and overall it was just okay. We stopped for dinner and the did not appear busy. There was plenty of free parking available in the shopping center and indoor/outdoor seating. It was very windy and too cold to eat outside, so we opted to eat inside. There were only four tables to choose from and one bathroom. This became an issue when someone was already using the bathroom, probably blowing it up since it had already been five plus minutes, and both of my kids had to go (we ended up going to Trader Joe's to use the bathroom). The food finally came out. We ordered 2 tri-tip plates, a chicken sandwich, a kids quesadilla w/rice, and 4 drinks. I was concerned about the tri-tip after reading many others complaining about it being overcooked. This was not an issue. The meat came out cooked perfectly, but the pieces were small. The mashed potatoes were good and buttery. The mac & cheese was good and had a nice flavor. The Brussel sprouts were undercooked, hard, and bland. The bread had soaked up the blood from the tri-tip and was soggy gross. The kids quesadilla was literally 2 store bought tortillas and some sprinkled cheddar cheese that wasn't even melted in between. I didn't care for it, but I'm glad my son ate it. Overall, I had high expectations for this place and it was lacking. read more

This used to be an amazing place! Over the years the service has gotten worse and worse. The food quality isn't what it used to be and the food is expensive. The last 2 times I went it was so bad I wanted to ask for a refund. read more

This used to be one of my favorite spots--fresh, clean, and high quality. Something has seriously changed. There were barely any people there, yet our food took about 35 minutes. When it came out, the tri-tip was like beef jerky--dry and rock hard--and the rice was soggy and inedible. The tri tip looked like dehydrated chucks. Our salad and sandwich weren't much better. The dressing was terrible, and my BLT came with stale cold ciabatta bread. Another couple actually asked for a refund too, which says a lot. What made it worse was how awkward the staff made it when we asked for a refund, when the food genuinely wasn't edible. Nobody seemed to even offer an apology or anything at the register, even when the manager was called. He just stared at me. Not sure if it's new management or what, but this place is not what it used to be. I wouldn't even give it one star after tonight. read more

One day I'll have to actually dine in as my orders are usually for take out. My orders have been accurately and nicely prepared. The food itself is quite delicious, just in smaller portions than expected. Other than that, I look forward to trying more of their bowls. read more

This was my first time here. This place had a rustic ambiance. Seating inside and outside. Outside does have heating. Let's get the Con out of the way. The Tri Tip was over cooked. Very well done, so it was a little dry. Now the rest of the food was great. The Roasted Brussel Sprouts were great. Not to mention the Korean Cauliflower. My son loved the butter noodles. The American Burger was cooed to the medium well as we asked. You can also taste the quality of the grass fed meat. Service was Al's a great quality of this location. Just don't ask the manger to pour your beer. Stick with Evan, he is great at his job. He is very polite and knowledgeable. Not saying the manger is bad, just doesn't know how to pour beer. Speaking of that, they have a great happy hour. Beer and wines are 50% off. I will come back and give an update. I plan on the Thai Chicken Bowl. read more

Bushfire Kitchen has really good food, and the burger is honestly one of my favorites. That said, it feels a little overpriced, especially when you have to pay extra for fries on the side--even though there's no table service. You're literally walking up, ordering, and sitting down, so the extra charge feels a bit much. The staff at the counter can be hit or miss--sometimes they're super kind, and other times they're surprisingly rude. There's really no in-between, so each visit feels like a bit of a gamble. Overall, I love the food and would come back, but I wish the pricing and the consistency of the staff matched the quality of the food. read more

This review is a mix of the location we went to and corporate. We were going to be in town and I tried several times to talk to someone at this restaurant. I called several times with no success and I sent an email contact form which was never answered. When we went I had to ask a lot of questions because we have someone with allergies, these were the questions I was hoping to ask beforehand and didn't get to. But, I was hoping that with the marketing all over about ingredient quality that the would be knowledgable about the food. The person helping me seemed really annoyed by my questions which is tough, it was also clear that he wasn't sure about the answers he was giving me so we had to avoid almost everything for one of the people in our party. The food that the rest of the group had was okay, but not good enough to return. Overall, we were pretty disappointed by our experience. read more

This is a great little spot for lunch. I had the Vegan avocado hummus sandwich. It was delicious and had a good combo of flavors. Bonus points for having a vegan option on your menu. :) My husband had the California burger and said it was very good. We ordered a kids chicken that came with a side and a kids buttered noodles that did not come with a side. The only suggestion I would have would be to include a side with all kids meals. Also having a side with the sandwiches and burgers would be nice. With that said the prices are low enough à la carte. The place was very clean and I loved the nice cozy rustic patio. Bushfire Kitchen had a friendly vibe and we will definitely try it again. read more

I was in Temecula twice over the past month and took out a lot of salads and sandwiches. Bushfire has a great menu and the Tuscan Chicken sandwich and Quinoa and Power Greens were both great! The wait having placed a to go order in person was crazy long. If I were to go back I'd place a to go order for pick up. read more

I picked up my order and well my fish wasn't fully cooked. I didnt mind but wasn't able to return since it was out of my way. So I called and was questioned about the time it took me to eat my meal? anyways he said the food could be remade there and I explained my situation again and if it be possible for another alternative. I was told I would probably be reached out but its not for certain? I was pretty chill about it and I never really care i understand mistakes happen but they questioned me about the fish and didn't really seem to care! read more

Used to be a 5 star place! Resturant is dirty, stood at the register for a long time with no acknowledgement, no one seemed to care about their job or you as a customer. Made me really sad to see a long time favorite place become so complacent. Not sure I'll be back. read more

I went here with a friend to have lunch. When we arrived there were only two people inside the restaurant and the other couple that was as the place was sitting outside. While the weather was too warm to sit outside, we probably should have. The cashier who took our order did not greet us, and seemed annoyed to be working. She was an older short female with black hair (I think she was the manager). Once we got out food and sat down we were under constant barrage from flies. It got so bad that we had to retreat outside and suffer in the heat. I will never go back to this place. The food was mediocre, not bad but I kept thinking if maybe there were some flies in my food. I say so many good reviews so I thought it would be good. Maybe I just came on a bad day, but really your business should not have a ton of flies inside. read more

Mobile ordered an hour prior and then arrived and was told "we got slammed with orders so it'll be a few" not a big deal. But then they forgot my bread and the steak is dry and my broccoli doesn't have the miso on it it's just steamed broccoli. $21 for this is a joke. I keep trying to give them another chance because this isn't the first time they've messed up my order. I'm officially not trying it anymore. Shame on me I guess. read more

Me and my son were in the area and decided to try Bushfire Kitchen for dinner. My son ordered the veggie burger ,vegetable empanada (empanada was good)and iced tea. I ordered salmon with garlic mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts with a lemonade. The order came up to $55.00 and some change. When the food arrived at the table I was disappointed that it was not hot and the mashed potatoes had no flavor of garlic but they gave a container of watered down lemon sauce. The bread was hard and so were brussel sprouts. I compared the food to a step above cafeteria grade. I enjoyed that the staff was very nice and the music playing outside was great! The restaurant has a farmhouse rustic feel which was nice. read more

Great customer service! I ordered two empanadas and a kids' meal. My daughter had the cage-free chicken with a side of fries. The chicken was full of flavor, and the fries were freshly cooked. I tried the guava & cream empanada and the chicken empanada, and I was highly impressed with both. I will definitely be ordering again! read more

We've been coming here for the past five years and it was always one of our FAVORITE places to have lunch. I always order the chicken curry bowl and I would eat half and take the other half home for dinner. The past year or so the portions have been getting smaller as the prices go up. My husband always orders the same thing and his is now HALF of the portion as it was in the past; I actually have a picture of his meal from a few years ago. It was completely different. We're even getting charged $3 extra for a tiny little bit of teriyaki sauce. We are pretty bummed but we won't be returning read more

Our first visit was rewarded with friendly and prompt service as well as a delicious lunch. I recommend the Chicken or Beef Empanadas. They are Amazing and served with a delicious sauce. We will definitely be back. read more

Good hearty food. We haven't been to this restaurant in a long time, but the quality of food has not changed, and by that I mean it's still really good. I do enjoy their menu choices which are written on big wooden boards above the open kitchen area. You can order meat, fish, or vegetarian options. You can also build your own bowl of delicious food which I really like. Once you order at the register you will have your food brought to your table (inside and outside seating). They offer good selection of beers if you fancy one with your meal. - BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich: antibiotic-free pork slowly cooked overnight, dill pickles, crispy onions, mustard and housemade barbecue sauce was good. I added fried egg and avocado to it and ordered side dish of roasted squash. The roasted squash was really good and filling. - Chicken and Rib Plate: free-range chicken leg & thigh, 1/4 rack of antibiotic-free pork ribs and any two sides. For the sides we ordered Grandma's Mac and cheese and sweet potato fries (both delicious!). If you are looking for fast, healthy, comfort food then this is the place to t read more

The customer service is on point here. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I come here when I'm too lazy to cook but want quality food - something other than fast food. It's a small joint.

The food was really good! If you're looking for a hidden gem in Temecula this is the spot. It's very down to earth and new age look on the inside. The service was okay. The person behind the counter was amazing! She helped us order since we had never been there. We listened to her recommends! When our food was served we asked for napkins and extra sides but they never came. And it wasn't that busy seeing as it was a Monday afternoon. All in all, get the sweet potato fries!!!!! read more

What's happening to one of my fave eating places? My wife and I dined here yesterday and were surprised at how the quality just was not there like it has been in the past. We both ordered burgers one "medium" and one "medium rare" yet both came well done. Not cool. Also, my salad didn't come with any dressing and my wife's fries didn't come with ketchup so I had to go ask for them. I could always count on the Temecula Bushfire to come through every single time but last night made us wonder if we would have been better off going to Farmer Boys. Seriously. read more

This was more creamy than cheesy and the flavor was delightful and that chimichurri sauce WAS TO DIEEEEEEE!!! I wish there was a location closer to my home read more

Dry chicken sandwich, harm over fly from night before. Service was so, so. This place very good in the past.

All of the sauces have potential but fell short, missing key flavors. To be fair my wife had the barbecue chicken, which was much more tender, but still lacked flavor had potential. Missing fat, where is flavorful healthy fat? Do they understand the importance of high-quality sea salt for the flavor in all food? Where is the salt? The beef empanadas are gross, however, the guava was pretty good, but sweets are easy! read more

Very small inside with only a few tables, but we always find a seat. They do have lots of seatings on the patio outside. I've been here twice and have only been disappointed in one very tall teenage girl who works there because my husband asked for Mac & cheese, but gave him veggies instead. When we told her, she didn't even try to fix it or give us the Mac & cheese because she typed in veggies in our receipt. But the other servers both times have been great. Came here one afternoon, after starving from a Trader Joe's shopping. The prices are a little high, but where is it not nowadays? I enjoyed their empanadas and the yummy green chimichurri sauce. My husband wasn't a fan of their tri tip. He thought it was a little tough and chewy, but we do love their burgers, fries, & sweet potato fries. So much so that we came back the next day craving the En Fuego burger & both fries. Hopefully we can pry ourselves away from the burgers next time and try more items in the menu. read more
