Came here for a friend's birthday this past weekend and I wish the experience was better. We were pretty excited to try this place since it had decent reviews. The minute you walked in, the ambiance just wasn't it. Perhaps because we were the only minorities there and everyone else wasn't (including the staff) but it was uncomfortable having people stare at us while we were eating and having our own conversations. Someone came to get our drink order and then it took a bit of time for our actual waiter Leila to come take our order. She did mention she was doing something else. we ordered the steak and frites and their pork chop which was the special of the day. I ordered my steak medium rare and the rest of the table ordered it in medium. When the steaks came out, the waiters seem confused as if they weren't sure which plates went where and when asked if that's a medium rare steak, they stated yes. That steak was medium and it was also dry and under seasoned. It was also tough and chewy. The fries were either undercooked or overcooked. Chimichurri sauce had no flavor to it. We did also order the cedar salad which was delicious. Their calamari and wings were as well. At the end of the night, Leila asked our friend how he liked his steak because it didn't seem like he ate anything. He said it was okay and she kept insisting you can be honest and kept pushing the matter. This was extremely uncomfortable because there was no need to make him feel like he was put on the spot. while I understand the need to want feedback, if your guest says it's okay and seem uncomfortable, maybe leave it at that. She then came over to me and asked about my steak and again saying, "you can be honest." Why wouldn't I be? I did tell her the steak was cooked incorrectly, that was not a medium steak and pointed out that it was dry. There was this awkward silence at the table because honestly there wasn't a need to keep pushing. Simply asking how was it would have suffice. They did end up comping my steak which was nice of them however the entire experience just wasn't pleasant. From the ambiance, to the crowd, to the food - wasn't worth it.

Breakfast wet burrito
Jan H.

First I just want to say, the only reason I didn't give this five stars was because of the parking situation. When looking ahead I thought for sure there would be no issue because the lot is big. However it turns out there was a kids tournament going on, so we had to walk pretty far. I didn't see a mention of this on the restaurant website, or I could have planned ahead or adjusted the time. I will say once we were inside the service was great. We were probably greeted and seated by the nice holsters. We had someone come over almost right away to bring us water. The atmosphere is very nice, and a great spot for a date night or just lunch with friends. It's a pretty large dining area, and the views are absolutely gorgeous. For the food I have the breakfast wet burrito, and I would 100% have this again. It's something I've not seen on another menu that I can recall, so I definitely had to give it a try. It came with fries on the inside but that's not how I prefer it, so I asked for them on the side, and as you can see in the photos they gave me much more then I'm sure would have been in the burrito. And the portion size was huge, and the sauce on the burrito was so good I ate almost the whole thing. Someone else at our table had the Benedict's and while they were a little more cooked than I would have liked them, they were happy with their meal, and said that the side potatoes were amazing. Definitely come here if you have a chance. They do take reservations which is a plus, and parking is plentyful for as long as there's not an event going on.

This is one of my favorite brunch places because of the view and selection of brunch items. The service is also great. I didn't have to chase anyone down as someone was always available. The only improvement needed is the parking. If there's an event, parking isn't guaranteed. Sometimes you're circling around the parking lot a few times just waiting for someone to leave.

Nachos fries

Came here for brunch before heading over to Pachanga casino. Enjoyed a bottle of wine with some delicious good. The fish tempura taco was crispy and delightful. Our server was super friendly and with an exceptional smile. Ambience was relaxing and overlooking the golf course. This is fine dining but without an uptight atmosphere.

Setting: TCI has a lovely property and the short ride up the driveway to the restaurant is lush and green. We found parking right away and walked in for our 3:30 Thanksgiving Day reservation. We waited for a few minutes and we were then seated at nice booth in the main dining room. I loved the main Edison bulb chandelier and overall, the lighting was pleasant. I also appreciated the small touches like the fork door handle, silverware light fixture in the entrance and the cozy fireplace in the bar area. The view of the golf course and the mountains is also really lovely. Layla took great care of us. She was attentive, friendly, and helpful. The food: There was a special menu today for Turkey day. It was a little bit light on choices, but we managed. :) We ordered Calamari & Caesar Salad for apps. Both were plentiful portions and tasty! The Calamari was crisp & fresh and the accompanying spicy aioli was perfect. The Caesar was a huge portion and plenty for us to share. It was as expected & full of crunchy croutons and fresh romaine. My Turkey entree was a nice sized portion, but on the pricey side at $49! The three thick slices of white meat were juicy and perfectly cooked. The potatoes & stuffing were filling. My favorite accompaniment was the broccolini with caramelized onions. Yum! (I even had some leftovers to take home!) Mom's Fish & Chips were fine she said, but the fish was a little bland & dry. Dad loved his burger and ate every bite. The fries on both were crisp and flavorful. We were all a little disappointed that the menu didn't have other elevated entrees (such as steak, pork, or salmon) for those guests who did not want turkey. The bread pudding was a bit dry, but it was a a huge portion & my folks enjoyed it. My pumpkin pie was delish! I loved the homemade whipped cream & the hazelnut crumbles. The wine was lovely and complemented the meal well. Verdict: Overall, this was a nice experience in a pleasant environment. I'm happy to have had the opportunity to celebrate another safe and healthy holiday with my folks! Cheers!

思念過往時,彷彿風中飄過的每一片落葉,都是帶著以前的故事和回憶,秋意漸濃, 風高雲淡, 樹影斑駁,枯葉輕飄的秋天,就是會讓人多了幾分惆悵與思念~ 除了去吃聖地亞哥的海鮮之外, 最近剛去Temecula 參加朋友的婚禮, 我們待的飯店是高爾夫球的渡假村, 我好喜歡那裡的環境呀,這次過去才知道其實Temecula 離我家也才一個小時多一點而已,跟我去LA downtown 時間其實是差不多的,但幾十年來居然沒有去過,而度假村裡的飯店,東西做的非常好吃,尤其是他家的羊排, 真心令人驚艷,我超愛,一點都不輸LA 的大餐廳, 有點驚訝鄉下地方的餐廳有如此的水準,那天我喝了杯調酒也非常好喝,如果來Temecula 渡假, 可以訂這家餐廳試試, 應該不會讓你失望的!

Farmhouse, vibe restaurant with a beautiful view of the golf course. Wonderful service. Outstanding food and drinks. Wonderful place to enjoy a meal with friends.

Waldorf buratta salad so good
Bellamara B.

I brought my girlfriends here last monday for our MLK Brunch. It was their first time, and they love both the food and ambience . After they finished their meals , I shared my pancake and burrata with them. It such a relaxed spot that we end up staying for about 2 hours. Forgot his name but our server is awesome!

I am so glad we decided to check this place out! The entire experience was soo elegant. Staff members were kind and professional. The menu had just the right amount of options. We loved their signature burger that had a delicious char flavor, and the unique mushroom ravioli was out of this world. I brought my mom for a mother daughter date, but it's perfect for any occasion

Dining Room .... Comfy bro

Blueberry lavender salad with chicken
Stephanie B.

Corkfire Kitchen overlooks a beautiful golf course in Temecula. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. We opted to sit inside as it was a 100 degree day! The view from our seat was awesome with floor to ceiling windows overlooking waterfalls and the course. Service: Service could've been better. I had to ask multiple times for a few things like a high chair, kids menu, milk, etc. Food: we started with the nachos and added chicken. The nachos were good, but could've used more chicken. The beans and cheese sauce were well seasoned, we were the chips. I ordered the blueberry lavender salad with grilled chicken, which was good, but not worth $27. My husband got the herb and burrata omelette, which he enjoyed. It was large and came with a decent amount of roasted potatoes. I was pleasantly surprised that the kids menu had a grilled chicken with fruit option that also came with a choice of drink (milk for him). This would be a nice place to grab brunch after visiting the golf course or wineries.

Amazing view
Chris A.

This is such a great restaurant, one of our family favorites. Tonight I took my wife here for our anniversary and it did not disappoint. Everything was top notch, the food, the scenery and the service. We were served by Christian, always checking in and making sure we were satisfied. He was very professional and had a great attitude which made the night even more enjoyable. Other staff members also checked in and made sure we were satisfied, which was great. The food is always amazing here. We ordered the Harvest Salad with Chicken, which tasted light and refreshing, with great seasoning on the chicken. The Prime Rib and potatoes were savory and perfect. The bartenders excel at their craft with the Cherrywood and my wife loved the Q's cup, which she said was crisp and refreshing. Overall I can't recommend this place enough.

They did seat us separately, which wasn't what we would have preferred; however, we understand that the reservation was made last minute and we were also on a time crunch, so getting seated quickly was a priority. I know it's not easy accommodating a large group, especially on a busy day, and given our time constraints, I was initially nervous about whether we would be seated and served on time. However, the staff was organized, patient, and friendly throughout, and everything ran smoothly. Despite how busy it was, we received our food promptly, and everything came out well-presented and delicious. The chilaquiles were especially flavorful, and the egg omelet and potatoes were also excellent. Our group also ordered the Korean ribs, which were very tasty, and the French toast as well! For drinks, our group wasn't a big fan of the iced coffee, and the mimosa flights were a bit too sweet for my personal preference. I only really enjoyed two out of the four options. That said, they were beautifully presented and very photogenic. One thing we really appreciated was that they accommodated separate checks for such a large group, which made paying much more convenient. The space offers both indoor and outdoor seating. It is on the smaller side, but they still managed to accommodate our group comfortably. Overall, it was a really positive experience, and I'd definitely consider returning.

Pros: - Great Service, very nice waiters/waitresses…read more- Good Food and drinks and coffee, haven't had a bad meal there once. - Outdoor seating ( clean and spacious without being cramped ) - Food portions are bigger than your average brunch spot, and filling. - PET FRIENDLY!

Overall: A Step up above diners, Great place for breakfest and coffee, can't complain.

We arrived around 11am and were given the breakfast menu (which honestly looked incredible), but since we were only in town for a short time, we asked for the lunch menu so we could try the BBQ. So glad we did. We ordered the 3-smoked meats platter with mac & cheese and mashed potatoes--pastrami, brisket, and ribs--and everything was unbelievably tender and flavorful. You can tell it's done right. The portion was also very generous--honestly enough to feed 3-4 people--and we still left with leftovers. They also serve three BBQ sauces, including a spicy one that I absolutely loved. The service was amazing--just the right amount of friendly without ever feeling like they were selling you something. Attentive in all the right ways and straight to the point, which made the whole experience feel easy and genuine. We grabbed a cinnamon roll to go, and it was massive but surprisingly light--not dense at all, just perfectly soft and delicious. After eating, we took a walk through Old Town Temecula, which is such a charming area and the perfect way to end a meal like this. We can't wait to go back and try more--this is definitely going into our list of go-to spots whenever we're in the area.

I'd encourage the business to remind their waitresses that we as patrons can feel your disgust and hostility, it's not kind.
