I would say it's the most gorgeous winery in Temecula but I may be bias haha read more

This winery is a prime example of people who take things too far. I went to a wedding at this winery, and I did not sign any release forms or any of such things. I happen to take photos of me and my friends at the winery during the wedding, and now the winery is re-posting all of my photos without any permission. They are also a posting photos of me that I took at the wedding, as if a promotion of some sort that I am making a statement to support the winery, and they have never asked me any such things, or ask for my permission. They've also re-posted other photos that I took, again as if I was promoting their winery, or somehow that they were able to use my photo to promote their winery on social media without any permission. I've reported all of these to IG And have reached out to the winery, but yet these photos still remain up. Not only that, their wedding account has also re-post the photos that I took of my friends wedding, explicitly without my permission, without asking, and probably did not get my friends permission either. I don't recommend that you support this winery because they clearly like to infringe upon copyrights and don't really care. read more

We went on the Fazeli tour, I liked all of the wine except their flagship red. Tour was more about the winery than wine tasting and wine. Was not impressed with final red tasting where they went to get each bottle individually, should have brought all out on a cart at once. Huge tasting room Persian influence Boland Rooz - Sauvignon Blanc Very good, light, fruity Ruby rose rose'. Nice, flavorful Ruby rose sweet rose - sweeter. Still very good and fruitful Chardonnay- vanilla notes. A little oaky very good. Mehregan - Grenache Smooth spicy. Fruit forward medium body Phel phel. Not impressed. A little peppery. No my favorite Montepulciano. Good bold red. a little better than the Shiraz Shiraz - good fruit flavor. Bold red. Hafez fruity tannic good with Brie and fig jam Ferdowsi. Let aerate. Smooth, less tannic when it sits. Newly opened is tannic and tight. Very fruity. I am considering joining their wine club, make the visit to this beautiful winery. You won't regret it! read more

I came to this winery this past Sunday. The food was very good. We had several dishes from the menu due to my party being that of 8 people. Everyone in my party liked the food. The service was good as well. Staff checked up on us every 5 minutes, which was good because it wasn't intrusive. The ambiance was good. We went when it was 95 degrees outside, but we were under shade on the second floor. My brother in law was very impressed and purchased a membership there. Good spot. Since he has the membership, we will be going back shortly. read more

I usually dont write a review unless the experience was awesome or below average. I have to be fair so i will rate everything from food, wine, service. 1) Wine was average over all. We tried 6-10 different wines from regular and premium menu and i would try ot again but between the 4 of us we didn't taste any superb. So 1 star so far for the wwine. We agreed the Khayyam from premium menu was good otherwise the rest tasted like generic Costco wines with hints of flavors. 2) Food was below average. We ordered 7 items on menu and everything except flatbeard was lower than catering quality. Felt like mix kabob was old, dry, and reheated. Having had both street food and high end Mediterranean cuisine, this attempt at Mediterranean cuisine fell short on 6 dishes. I shouldn't be that hard to BBQ chicken or lamp. There hundreds of Mediterranean, Arab, and Persian restaurants in Southern California so it cant be that hard. 3) The service was the worst. The bar staff seemed very annoyed at everyone who wasnt a regular. They were also understaffed. Furthermore, the host and waiters were at times very rude. When it was near closing time they rush us out by giving us "warning 1", "warning 2"....Although ot was about ~5:00. It seems they have no formal training in "hospitality & customer service". THe correct way to tell guests its time for closing is to start "With Thank you coming over and we really like have you stay more, however..." You never say this is "warning #1"! 4) The ambience was excellent. So another 2 stars for facilities & view. Advice get rid of staff who are not enthusiastic and get a new chef. 5) Price was reasonable. read more

Wanted to try a different winery than the usual. The food was good and the winery itself was beautiful. The restaurant felt like a makeshift banquet hall/multipurpose venue, and lacked natural ambience. Decor felt like they were trying too hard to make it look like a real restaurant. Depending on what you're looking for, the food and the service were great. It's just not giving a cool vibe. read more

I love Fazeli Cellars Great wine and as a bonus the owner is an Iranian-American which makes me proud! The only complaint I have is his new manager 2023 She was rude We spend money every year -- a few times a year On member ship wines and on additional cases Last time I was there the manager treated me as if I was stealing from the establishment I spent 1200.00 o 2.5 cases of wine I like Baba Joon and his employee Linda in particular so much that I let the manager's rudeness pass But wanted to leave s review just in case she sees this Happy Thanksgiving to all. read more

What would others have said, healthy food doesn't taste bad. Healthy food can be insanely delicious. The trick is finding the right recipes and (if you don't have the knack) someone who knows how to cook it properly. Product 1. Needs major improvements People 1 don't know what's on menu Process 2 bit tricky needs improvements read more

Went here for an event. The winery is gorgeous and the service was really great. The event was an industry event so we was able to meet some really great people and the owner. I would definitely come back for wine and apps at this location. It is worth the top of the hill drive/walk. I will be back read more

Gorgeous place, but their events group is not responsive. I submitted a request through their contact form on their website to host an event in March next year. No response. I stopped by in person and was told to reach out to Romy. I've sent her 2 emails (on 5/24 & 6/1). I also called twice and left messages. No response & it's now 6/13. My event budget is $10k. Dumb. read more

I became a member of Fazeli because the wine is exquisite and also because the atmosphere which is peaceful and the Saadi is the best red I've ever had! I continue to come here because of the wine and also because of Lisa. She is super personable, fun and extremely professional. When you come here, ask for her! This is an amazing winery. I recommend it to anyone who is looking to do wine tasting and looking for a unique winery that appeals to those who love wine. read more

My girlfriend's and I recently enjoyed a day of wine tasting in Temecula. We honestly only ended up at Fazeli Cellars because they had a wine tasting Groupon. After some research we decided to go ahead and eat lunch there as well, since their Mediterranean style café seemed to have some pretty great reviews. I knew from online photos that this would be a beautiful midway point for our day, but even then I was stunned at the picturesque view from the dining patio. The wine tasting and dining are on the second story of the building, which overlook the expansive vineyard, all the way to the rolling mountain backdrop. It honestly could not have been more beautiful. I opted to try the Roasted Vegetable Curry: broccoli, carrot, zucchini & Cauliflower served in a coconut curry sauce over basmati rice, finished with lemon oil & micro greens. My veggies came out cooked to perfection and the flavor of the curry was spot on. There was so much rice that I only ate about 2/3 of my plate, which was nice due to the $15 price tag. Of the 6 tastings, I ended up loving the 2015 Shirin, which is surprising since I am definitely a White Wine girl. This sweet red is listed as having raspberry & blackberry met with vanilla & graham cracker. I usually don't taste much of the underlying notes, but I really had this after kick of campfire, which I loved! It must have been the hint of graham cracker. read more

Great customer service great vibe and great food! We usually come 3 times a year to temecula and we always have to stop here! read more

One great winery, Not to be missed. One of the best wineries in Temecula, this winery has a wide variety of well crafted white and red wines that are made with pride. This is a winery that will ruin you and raise the bar on expectations when you try other wineries. If you consider yourself a connoisseur of wines then this is a place not to be missed. Their membership comes with some swanky perks for example, invites to the masquerade party and a members only area that is secluded from the regular wine tasters. This fine establishment comes with an amazing view that magically transports you to a different place of the world (except you could still feel that sweltering Temecula heat) but other than that it's a REALLY nice winery. read more

The Mrs. and I stopped by Fazeli Cellars in what was the last of two wineries we visited last Sunday. Driving up to Fazeli is an experience. Three very large imposing building doe the hillside amongst the vineyards. The tasting room being at the highest point on the hill. It was still raining when we arrived, but we were lucky enough to find a parking spot close tot he tasting room. We made out way down the portico towards the tasting room and came to s sign that said Ruby Lounge and made a right. Assuming it was the tasting room. Sarah, the hostess, informed us that only there were no tastings, just glasses being poured. We were fine with that an plotted ourselves down on a large sofa next to the fireplace. I was kinda puzzled that there was only one other family tasting, but then again, it was pouring down rain outside so we figured that might have kept people away. Sarah approached us and asked for my name. I told her we didn't have a reservation. She asked if we were wine club members and I told her no. Apparently, we were in the wine club member area. We apologized and were getting ready to leave and then she told us just to stay because they weren't that busy and we looked comfortable and she set up a tasting for us. I let her choose the wines we were tasting. The wines we had were really good. Sarah explained the background of the winery owner and how Shiraz is blended into every wine. Food can also be ordered to enjoy with your wine. Sadly, we didn't try it, but the food menu looked pretty extensive and what we saw coming out of the kitchen looked really good. Obviously, it was Mediterranean in nature. Based upon the level of service we received from Sarah and the wines we tried, we ended up joining the wine club. read more

We ended our day of wine tasting here for dessert wines and dinner. The winery itself is a stunning estate. I'd like to try more of their wines on a future visit but the dessert wines were delicious. I liked splitting the tasting because I thought one sweet tasting would be too much for sugar for me. Baba Joon's kitchen - the walnut appetizer and the dolma were divine. The warm walnut creamy dip with the pita really hit the spot. Personally, the hummus wasn't creamy enough for us but it was still a good appetizer. Love how you can get Mediterranean bites or food here compared to the typical pizza/pasta/similar fare at most other places. read more

Brought my husband and nieces to comedy night and we had the BEST time ever! I loved watching my husband laugh, we all had a great time. They had a flights and bites menu, we ordered a lot thinking it would be appetizer sizes and we were so wrong...it was fully plated meals. I won't complain because everything we ordered was DELICIOUS! We also ordered a Margarita flight...yummmmmm!!! Our server Gabe was the best and the owner Romy was so welcoming and friendly! The comedian's were funny as heck, had me laughing that by the end of the night my face was hurting! Thank you Fazeli's for a great night! We will definitely be back! read more

Such a quiet, beautiful spot with amazing views! HUGE shoutout to Ryon who made our tasting experience so wonderful. I am not usually a wine person, but Ryon was really helpful in finding something that worked for me. Also, he was a great conversationalist that clicked really well with our group. 10/10 service, will come back again! read more

So I ran into a strainge set of rules. If you have a wine tasting at the bar, you can not have food. You have to get a table to get food but can not have a tasting. We had to bounce from our table to the bar (less than 4 feet away) to eat and drink. I wish they would have told us when we ordered instead of when it showed up. When asked why, we were told that's the rules. We won't be coming back Update: The manager clarified his policy. We both said the same thing. There is no food at the bar and no tasting aloud at the table. Get a glass or bottle with food, and you're fine. If indead the tables are less then 2 feet---why couldn't they walk the 2 feet when we were the only 2 people in the who place? Because it's the rules! read more

I visited Fazeli with an extremely large group of friends for my birthday and we all enjoyed our time. The patio had plenty of seating with heaters to keep us warm. We ordered food with a few bottles of wine and were impressed by the flat breads and Persian tacos. We all really enjoyed the baba Joon wine and some of the other selections suggested to us. What really topped off our experience was Denise and her attentiveness to our group! Thank you Denise for making it a memorable evening! We will be back read more

We had a reservation for a tasting at Fazeli for some tastings. The property is absolutely stunning! We all had the priority wine pass, but apparently they do not honor the pass, even though it says they do in the priority wine pass website. We also called ahead to confirm the "buy one tasting and get one tasting free" from the priority wine pass website and they had confirmed it. So when we got there, we were a little disappointed to find out we had been given wrong information. They did mentioned they have something else on Groupon, so that is something you can look into if you're interested in visiting Fazeli! read more

The wine was great. The food was awful. We visited on a Thursday and pretty much had the place to ourselves. The space is beautiful and it has great views. The woman who helped us was very friendly and helpful. She's the main reason for the 3 stars. We had a late lunch. Ordered the kabobs. I had one bite of each (chicken and steak) both were dry and seemed to have been preheated leftovers. Although I was starving I didn't eat my food. If I go back I'll only have wine. read more

Do not recommend!!! Ordered 2 glasses of wine & food. Wine was good! Service is very mediocre. Good was horrible. We had the Fazeli salad & shrimp taco that been discarded as "Saffron" shrimp. It was turmeric shrimp (taste & color) both got stomach flu read more

Biggest question is, why does Fazeli offer a full bar if 1 out of the 2 bartenders has no idea what they're doing? A group of friends and I were here on the evening of Saturday, March 16. The venue is beautiful, the live entertainer they had was fantastic, food and wine were pretty good. However, a couple of friends decided to get beer and cocktails instead of wine, and their drink order took over 20 minutes because one of the bartenders couldn't even make a staple drink. My friend had to walk her through the whole process as she assured, "I promise I'm a bartender." They also ran out of beer glasses, so the bartender offered plastic cups that were nowhere close to the original beer size. My friend overpaid for the beer just to finish this transaction. His food made it back to the table before he did. The other bartender was incredible, hard working, sweating up a storm just to get people drinks in a timely manner. Unfortunately he was working his butt off because the patrons knew the other person couldn't deliver. What a shame. It put a little damper on our evening. I think this was a one-and-done experience, considering there are so many wineries in the area. Just know it might be a gamble on that full bar. read more

Really enjoyed the food and wine here. Lack of view due to the screens being down to block out sunlight. There were multiple other areas of the restaurant/ winery that were closed off and so we were confined to a table the entire time and they brought wine flights over but never explained anything to us.. we kind of just figured it out as we went. We came for a relaxing experience and the table in front of us had at least 8 people or so and they had just left what seemed like a graduation as one chick was wearing a cap and gown and they were wasted and so loud and it was so not ideal for the scene. I wish that the server or manager would have realized the disturbances and asked them to be respectful of the environment.. I would come back for the food and wine. Atmosphere was extremely lacking and there was a strong breeze so I would say get some heaters.. and the hours reflect an early close so I would ask that maybe you extend your hours ? I wish there was more of a tour or explanation or interactive anything it was more like a restaurant than a "winery". Like I said they really have the food and wine going for them.. however not all were my favorite. I did leave with a mayhem and a babajoon. I recommend the family platter. Views were nice.. but you had to look out the stair way to see it read more

Beautiful property-they shpuld & could do better. Brunch service with Brooks was terrible She was slow, rude, bad service which tainted our experience. The food was good but took 2 hours and we were 1 of 4 tables. Champagne was flat. Payment system was down & we had to pay cash. read more

Came in the afternoon with my folks who are new to the area and recent members. I don't recall the exact details of the membership but it's a good deal, I want to say you are required to purchase a bottle every two months and you get 8 free glasses of wine a month, max 2 per person a visit - please check with the business to confirm (lol)! Beautiful views and grounds, nice outdoor seating area for the restaurant, and nice club members bar and patio. Good wine. Food was OK. Surprised there wasn't more vegan options, and was unimpressed with the hummus, which was pretty bland. Service was OK, nothing spectacular or horrifying. All in all will definitely come back for the wine and views and may consider membership! read more

I have been a member at their neighboring winery for many, many years. I remember this place being built and always wanted to stop by but we never got a chance. Finally this weekend I came with my friend. We had lunch and a tasting and loved it so much that I joined! This place is beautiful and MASSIVE. I know that a lot of wineries have that going for them, but the wines suck. Not here. I loved their Rose and almost all of the reds I tried. They primarily make red blends, but they do them right. For lunch my friend and I had the Gyro Flatbread and Dolma. Since we were standing at the bar tasting, and they weren't terribly busy, they brought a table to the bar so we could eat and continue tasting with no hassle. The food was AMAZING. I can't even describe how perfect the flatbread was. Thin, crisp, chewy, with the most amazing toppings. We were in love with our lunch. Barb was serving us and she was great. So personable and helpful. Once I decided to join the wine club she took us on a tour of the property, which I have never had anybody do at any winery I have ever joined. They have 3 areas for members and you can make reservations, which I thought was awesome. Their land is gorgeous, their gardens are great, and all the architecture is fantastic. I am really glad that I joined here and I look forward to returning. Every single person who we interacted with was friendly and upbeat, with Barb being the best of the bunch! My friend is super excited to come back with me and wants to be my plus one for the events they throw, which look over the top and super fun! read more
