The food was off the charts. We had eggplant, calamari, and of course, several pasta dishes. The service was very very good. Only complaint...no pets inside. They have very limited outdoor seating but we need get a table so, happy ending. read more

Great spot to grab a drink! Service 5/5 -The staff behind the bar is really friendly and welcoming and gives good recommendations! Food/drinks -They have variety of drinks. And some food items to snack on. Exceptional venue and wither you plan to come just once or twice, or to be a cool regular like last night's crowd, just come. read more

Came here for dinner to celebrate my mom's birthday. Highly recommend making reservations as it gets busy on the weekend. Espresso Martini (3.5/5): their version has Bailey's and chocolate syrup, I asked for a more classic version and it was decent. Watermelon & Beet Salad (3/5): thought this salad was just ok. Calamari (4/5): solid appetizer, can't go wrong with this, wish the portion was bigger. Seafood Pasta (4/5): pretty good, but pricey at $42. Rigatoni Alla Norma (4.5/5): my family really liked this dish, I thought it could use a little more flavor. Overall we had a good dinner here, however it took way too long for the pastas to come out. We noticed parties who came in after us being served their entrees first which was odd. We were also sat right next to the live band which was entertaining, but loud so we couldn't really have a conversation. They brought our cannolis to celebrate which was nice. Our server was very friendly. read more

I worked in hospitality and fine dining for decades. Hence my 3 star assessment of Gourmet Italia: 1) A pretentious attitude by your wait staff does not make for good fine dining. Frankly, pretentious attitudes lower the experience for everybody. Even for your waiters. 2) It isn't "fine dining" to conceal the prices from your customers and to then surprise them when the check comes. $100 for a not so special dinner for one? Oh lord. 3) I ordered the "special" Caesar Salad. $20 when the check came. My waiter didn't bother to time arrival of the main course so it arrived before I was even half way finished with the "special" salad. Btw---is Romaine lettuce too expensive now to portion properly on a $20 plate? 4) My waiter offered to take away my salad so he could "make room" for the main course. Take it away? It was only half eaten and this was with just a handful of lettuce on the plate. 5) So he instructed the busser to remove my bread. I liked the salad and the small slices of bread much better than the rather odd Chicken Piccata that came out. 6) My waiter suggested I order the side pasta with the same lemon sauce as the Piccata (although it normally comes with Pomodoro Sauce. In theory great suggestion! In reality --- not so good. The pasta sucked up most of the sauce leaving the Chicken oddly dry. I asked for a bit of the marinara sauce it's normally served with (on the side do I could try it out). No problem! They just tucked an extra charge of $2 into my already inflated bill. The higher the better, after all! Who cares about being fair to a customer? 6) I had asked for a glass of ice water at the start to enjoy with the wine. My waiter arrived with a bottle of Pellegrino. No doubt the better to pad my tab. I pointed out his error in a kind way---he whisked away the now opened Pellegrino bottle and then made it a point to confiscate the glass of water he had already mistakenly poured. What do you suppose his plan was with this? To maybe resell the already opened bottle to another customer? Maybe convince them the amount already poured out into another customer's glass never happened? Dear Waiter, If this IS fine dining (or ANY LEVEL of service you simply apologize for the error and invite the customer to enjoy the water you just poured for them. Then send a bottle of the water they intended over as well. read more

We had my best friend's wedding rehearsal dinner at gourmet italia. The service was so wonderful, the ambience was classy and the food was great with a variety of Italian options. The back of the restaurant was rented out for our party to have a private space where there was a bar, beautiful decorated tables and a section to showcase a slideshow for the groom and bride. Definitely worth a stop! read more

Wow this place is so delicious! First visit was yesterday for Valentine's Day and there was a set menu at $125 per person, we got a welcome glass of champagne and a rose and the whole meal was five courses. We had Samantha as our server and she was great, very friendly and attentive. We also enjoyed the server who came over to offer fresh Parmesan cheese and pepper for our food. I ordered a mocktail which was citrusy and fruity very delicious. My husband love his Cabernet wine too. For our starters we chose the ahi tuna and the crab risotto. Both were absolutely delicious, very flavorful and the risotto was warm and you could taste all the fresh ingredients. The salad was included for both is us and in my opinion was the best part of the five courses. The flavors were so beautifully incorporated and they went perfectly together. The chef outdid themselves with this salad. The next course was the raviolis. Both were so good! The lobster option was full of lobster meat and a beautiful sauce. The black truffle ravioli was warm and delicious I just loved it. The main entree of the roasted trumpet mushrooms was pretty good, they were super thick mushrooms almost thick like a steak and the sauces paired pretty well too. The halibut was amazing! Before ever tasting it, I could smell how fresh and clean and well cooked it was & when I ate it omg so good. The final course was the dessert. The best part was the tiramisu in my opinion, the tart was ok and the chocolate mouse was decent. I can't wait to come back in and try other menu items. read more

What a beautiful Italian restaurant in Temecula. This is my first visit at Gourmet Italia for a Friendsgiving with San Diego Yelpers. There were 12 of us. Thanks Janet T for the lovely evening. Ordered: Spaghetti Amatriciana-Pancetta and onion in a spicy marinara sauce Soda I substitute Pancetta with Chicken. It was charged extra to replace the meat. They served complimentary bread with dipping sauce. The pasta was flavorful and delicious. I added crushed peppers to kick up the knot. Tiramisu was absolutely delicious with a perfect sweetness. Both the owner and server, Jeremy, were super amazing and welcoming! Before heading out for the evening, there was beautiful band playing for the night at the bar area. Highly recommend this place. Perfect spot for any occasions and even for a romantic date. The menu is priced high, but I will definitely come back in the near future. read more

Gourmet Italia - Delicious desserts - Italian Near Me - Temecula, California

Came here to have dinner with a reservation at 715. Got seated at 720. The hostess had a rude demeanor. Although it took 20 mins for the waitress to get our orders. She was a good server. Excellent memory, very polite. Our food took 1 HOUR to be served. I ordered the halibut on the special menu. The halibut wasn't anything special. It had an uneven sear and it cost $50! Not worth the hour wait. It was Seasoned well. And the sauce was decent. veggies were a little overcooked. But overall not worth the price. It also took 20 mins for the check to arrive. They had live entertainment as far as the ambiance goes. The live entertainment deserves 5 stars. Because of the long wait and the food not meeting the expectation I do not plan on returning. read more

Very disappointed with the service last night. We eventually walked out. It took the server over 30 minutes to come greet us. We told her we had just placed drink orders at the bar, had not been served or paid for them. The hostess advised to just let server know what we ordered and she could add to our bill and bring us the drinks. Server was very irritated and said she was going to speak with the hostess. Our server never came back to the table to give us any update of drinks or even take our appetizer order. After being at the restaurant for over 45 minutes with a reservation we decided it was time to leave. All guests around us were serviced quickly, even the ones that came in after us. Luckily we were able to be seated, order drinks, appetizers and dinner at another restaurant. We were in & out within an hour and had fantastic food & service. Good thing we left as the restaurant was too loud to enjoy anything and then on top of that, extremely poor service with an attitude. Very dissatisfied with Gourmet Italia last night. Not sure when or if we'll visit again. read more

After day of wine tasting, our family were in the mood for Italian. Finding this restaurant nearby on Yelp was a godsend. We called ahead for reservation, and they were able to accommodate our large party of 12. The place itself was very nice and classy with white tablecloth, dim and intimate lighting. We got seated in back section of restaurant and had our own private room. Our family can get a little loud when we are all together, so this was perfect setup. I thought service was a little slow in the beginning, but soon as we ordered and got our food, everything was fine. Staff were friendly and welcoming. For appetizers, Calamari Fritti was fresh and perfectly prepared, paired well with the marinara sauce. The Cozze e Patatine (mussels in white wine garlic sauce) was delicious and comforting. Though the crispy fries were nice, I would have preferred bread with it for soaking up the delicious broth. Both Bruschetta alla Siciliana and Carpaccio di Bue were solid dishes and on point as well. Their beet salad was really refreshing. Candied walnuts, blue cheese and Balsamic vinegar do wonders for salad. As for entrees, we got the special Seafood Pescatore and it was amazing. Kind of reminds me of cioppino, but with less sauce. The delicious ensemble consisted of shrimp, mussels, calamari, and clams. The Tomahawk special was excellent and cooked to perfection. It was served on a huge cutting board with mashed potatoes, sauteed mushrooms and vegetables. Everyone enjoyed the Ziti baked with bolognese sauce (Pasta al Forno della Zia al Sugo di Carne) and Capellini alla Checca (spaghetti pasta - Fresh tomatoes, garlic, fresh basil, and Poggio Leano Olive Oil). We had Spumoni bomba and Pistachio Profiteroles for dessert. Both had ice cream in them and was perfect way to cap off our evening. I enjoyed Spumoni bomba more then Profiteroles for its crisp chocolate shell. Overall, some very solid Italian food. Good portion and reasonable price too. Highly recommend! read more

We were invited by a great friend to try this awesome restaurant. Wow, what a great Italian restaurant. As soon as we stepped inside, we can feel the nice decor and atmosphere. Very elegant and upscale. Please note, this is a very popular restaurant. Reservation is highly recommended for large group. Our server Jeremy was very friendly and welcoming. Made us feel right at home. Great hospitality! There were 11 of us all together. For me, I ordered the following: - Fusilli Calabrese (Chicken, mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes in a light tomato cream sauce) As a group we ordered the following to share: - Calamari Fritti w/ Cherry Peppers We end the evening with the: - Tiramisu The Fusilli Calabrese was so good. Loved the mushrooms and the sun-dried tomatoes. The light tomato cream sauce was very tasty. Goes well with the pasta. As for the Calamari Fritti, wow, it was so so good. Our friend said this dish is very good, and she wasn't wrong. Glad we decided to order this item to share. Will definitely get this item again in the future. The Tiramisu was very delicious. Not too sweet. Melt in your mouth. What a great evening! Glad we had the opportunity to try this place. Had a great time and meeting new friends! Thanks Janet for the invite! read more

I've never been to Italy, but I imagine this is as close as it gets. I can easily say Gourmet Italia is the best Italian restaurant I've been to. The menu is simple and pasta is featured heavily, which only makes every dish that much better. If I lived closer I would make it a goal to try every single offering. The first time my wife and I went there was 20 years ago. At the time, it was a tiny restaurant in a strip mall. While it's still in the strip mall it has expanded, but it's just as busy and just as good as it was 20 years ago. Although we go to Temecula often, it's not easy to get reservations at Gourmet Italia. This past weekend I was lucky to get one. I ended up getting both specials, an amazing butternut squash soup that was perfectly creamy and sweet, as well as a healthy portion of seafood pasta with massive amounts of mussels, clams, squid, and a jumbo prawn. I was so stuffed I didn't even have room for dessert. To be honest, my wife's spaghetti with pancetta may have been the best thing I tasted that night. If you live within an hour of Temecula, or are visiting, you need to make a reservation at Gourmet Italia. I can't wait till my next visit. BTW, 20 years ago the owner made our experience amazing with his enthusiasm and clear love for his restaurant. He still does, with a little less hair on his head, but he is still amazing. He sat us at an awesome table and shook my hand as we left, thanking us, clearly proud of what he provided to us. He should be proud and he deserves nothing but more success. read more

We went to this place as just casual dinner. We ordered the seafood pasta, but unfortunately there was a significant amount of sand in the noodles (our whole family tastes the sand at every bite). We immediately brought this to the staff's attention because we had not finished eating the dish. The manager brought us a replacement, but it consisted of only noodles without the seafood. Later, when the original dish was being taken away, the manager pointed to several mussel shells and implied that they had already been eaten (I was shocked about this behavior). However, those mussels were not empty. I showed him that they had not been touched and that we had not eaten them. What disappointed us most was not the mistake with the seafood, but the manager's attitude and the way he responded to our concern. He told us that the restaurant could not control the sand in the seafood. We understand that seafood can occasionally contain some sand, but we expected the situation to be handled with more understanding and professionalism. To be fair, our waitress was very apologetic and felt bad about what happened. She removed the pasta from our bill and offered us a complimentary tiramisu, which we appreciated and gave her proper tips. Unfortunately, the manager's response left us feeling as though we were being blamed for complaining about something we had actually experienced. We were not looking for anything unreasonable--we simply wanted our concern to be acknowledged and handled respectfully. The food issue was disappointing, but the manager's attitude was what made the experience particularly unpleasant. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and works on providing better customer service when handling legitimate complaints. read more

It came here after I was recommended by my facial girl and had the best night ever! I was surprised when I walked in and they had a jazz band playing.

I definitely want to come back and try more things, but I got the gnocchi for my first time. read more

How the heck have I never written a review for this place before?? I've been coming here for years. One of my favorite places for pasta. My go to is always the seafood pasta. I'm usually a light white or wine sauce pasta girl, but the tomato sauce on there is so good. I'm obsessed with their complimentary olive tapenade & bread. I once tried to order something else & ordered their pasta carbonara. But I thought it was too rich. But I'll always come here for their seafood pasta & their olive tapenade. Service is always great, & we do enjoy the live music sometimes. read more

5 Stars And We'd Give More If We Could! We celebrated our son's 24th birthday at Gourmet Italia with a party of 18, and we could not have asked for a better experience! A huge thank you to Sam, who took absolutely amazing care of our group in the Sangiovese Room. From beginning to end, Sam was attentive, welcoming, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure everyone was taken care of. Managing a party of 18 is no small task, and Sam made everything feel effortless. The Sangiovese Room was the perfect setting for such a special celebration, and Sam truly helped make our son's birthday dinner a memorable one for our entire family and group. If I could give more than 5 stars I most definitely would! Thank you, Sam and Gourmet Italia, for the wonderful hospitality and for helping make our son's 24th birthday so special. We will absolutely be back! The food was absolutely delicious!!!!! read more

Honestly one of best meals we've had in this area. Service was quickly, friendly, and amazing. Our server recommended a blueberry mojito mocktail drink for me and it was delicious! We celebrated having family come to town and our baby announcement. Everyone's plate was tasty and cooked extremely well. My husband and MIL ordered their lobster ravioli (special), my FIL ordered their lasagne, and I ordered their seafood pasta (special) - everything was amazing and cooked perfectly. To share, we had the bruschetta, and it's probably one of the best bruschetta we've ever had. At the end, our server provided us with a complimentary cannoli - she was so sweet and thoughtful. The restaurant is really cozy inside and had different seating areas. Really great for a casual dinner, date night, celebration, etc. read more

We've been coming to Gourmet Italia for many years, dating back to when we lived in Temecula. It had been a while since our last visit, so we decided to celebrate Father's Day weekend there, hoping to enjoy one of our old favorites. Unfortunately, it was such a disappointing experience that I don't think we'll ever come back. Our server, Nadia, was very unpleasant from the beginning. She never smiled, wasn't warm or welcoming, and gave the impression that she didn't want to be there. We had to ask multiple times just to get water, and she hardly checked on our table throughout the meal. Her attitude alone made what should have been a special Father's Day celebration feel uncomfortable. To make matters worse, several menu items weren't available. We wanted the side vegetables, but they had run out. I ordered the seafood pasta, and they were out of that too. I also wanted a glass of white wine, and they were out of the one I requested as well. It was surprising how many items were unavailable. We were also seated at a small table tucked away in a corner. It was actually the second table we were moved to, and even that one felt isolated and uninviting. This restaurant just isn't what it used to be. Between the lack of menu items and the poor service, it was a very disappointing experience. If Gourmet Italia wants customers to return, they need employees who genuinely want to be there and provide friendly, attentive service. Sadly, after this visit, we don't have a reason to come back. read more

My favorite Italian Restaurant in Temecula. It gives the one of a kind exclusive vibe. On the outside it looks quaint, and on the inside it is larger than what you would think! It's simple but elegant, very well lit, and the dinner area is expansive. I love the little dessert window inside, and their tiramisu is unmatched. I have been here for lunch and dinner. I recommend the gnocchi for lunch with a lighter sauce, and the filet mignon for dinner with tiramisu for dessert. read more

Fantastic service very romantic atmosphere and the food was absolutely delicious. I am Italian so I definitely approve of this place and would recommend anyone going to Temecula. Our waitress was Hailey L. She was very attentive, kind and generous an, over-the-top waitress that really did her job and made our night even more enjoyable. The food makes a place great but attentive service that is served makes the food and the establishment attractive to go back to. We had the specials, the seafood Linguini and the lobster ravioli. Both were really tasty and we ended the night when some sort of lemon dessert which was incredible . read more

Came here for a friend's birthday dinner! Located in a big plaza so parking was relatively easy. Staff was nice and accommodating. Restaurant itself is large and provided ample seating! The calamari was my favorite part of the dinner! The breading was perfect, perfectly salty, and the sauce was delicious! I ordered the fettuccine bolognese with a side of meatballs. I thought it was just OK. I tried their squid ink pasta with scallops and was upset I didn't order that instead! read more

I did not know this place existed! I've been to the coffee shop next door. I've been to 88 Ranch Market and never seen this. Thanks to fellow Yelper extraordinaire, Janet, who invited a bunch of Yelpies for a Friendsgiving dinner on a Saturday night, I have now discovered a gem! Parking can be a bear on a Saturday night but it's possible. Definitely reserve a table beforehand or you will be waiting. There were 12 of us and without the reservation it would've been impossible to get in. I was the last to arrive and it was difficult getting the attention of the front desk. Thankfully another guest noticed I was lost. She pointed me toward the direction of the table which was tucked far away in the back. This place is bigger than I thought. There's a antique style part and a larger, modern addition. I will say our waiter, Jeremy did a great job handling all the Yelp Elites at this table. We can be a handful. He also helpers who brought out the food and cleared the table. I am giving it 4 stars for the lasagna. It wasn't my favorite. The price point for it was very high. It was mushy. I did try my friends lamb chop and out was fire. I don't normally eat lamb but this was cooked to perfection. I also got the Gourmet salad. The salad was very good. My teen got fettuccine Alfredo. She said some of the pasta was al dente. She does not like hard pasta. I guess you have to clarify here. The highlight of our evening was the owner came by to every table. He's a hoot. We even got a picture with him and our table. I would give it another try next time but ditch the lasagne. read more

Food: 4.5 Service: 4 Ambiance: 4 I've been to this strip mall so many times and somehow never realized Gourmet Italia was tucked away there. From the outside it's easy to miss, but the moment you walk in, you're transported somewhere completely different: dark, cozy, sultry, and full of ambiance. The first time I visited was for a dinner with 12 Temecula yelpers (thanks Janet for putting this together!), and I was really excited to try the place with them. It was dinner time and extremely crowded, but thankfully we had a reservation. There was live music, which added a fun energy, even though we were seated in a different room. The service was great, and the gentleman who helped us was very attentive. I ordered the lamb shank, which was absolutely delicious -- fall-apart tender and full of flavor. The friend next to me ordered the lamb chops, which were also cooked beautifully. All the plates around the table looked amazing and well-prepared. For dessert, we shared the tiramisu, which was rich, creamy, and very filling. I also ordered a glass of Cabernet, and it paired perfectly with my meal. We really enjoyed our time there, so much so that I ended up returning a few weeks later for lunch with a friend. The service during lunchtime wasn't quite as good as dinner, but still acceptable and the food remained excellent. I ordered the seafood pasta, which was outstanding and is now one of my favorites. Overall, Gourmet Italia has quickly become one of my favorite Italian restaurants in Temecula. read more

Food was delicious and the waiters/ service is excellent. Be prepared to wait even with reservations, however.

Thank you for accommodating our large group. We had made a reservation and even add to it when we were seated. We loved the atmosphere and the wonderful vibes. Everyone was lovely, so attentive and kind, especially our waiter Jeramy! He was great from the start! We were a group of 11 and enjoyed every minute of our time here. We started off with the calamari and gourmet italia salad. Both of which were fresh and just what we expected. Then our entrees came and what a feast. My lamb chops were wonderful and it was a full rack and with mashed potatoes and a mushroom gravy that was delish! My friend next to me ordered another house special, the braised lamb shank. She also loved her meal! It was all so much food. To the right of me,they ordered the lasagna and Alfredo, so tasty. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meals and some delicious tiramisu to round out our meal. Thank you for a wonderful evening! read more

Italian run restaurant just on the other side of old town Temecula. The ambiance is intimate, but has a very comforting atmosphere at the same time. Decor reminds you of the furniture and pictures you'd see at your grandparents (nonna's) house. The reservation my friends and I made were at 8:30 on Sunday evening, so being we didn't come during the height of dinner rush we were sat immediately, and everything we ordered came out quite quickly. For starters I had the Insalata fattore. The tomato and mozzarella were lightly seasoned but very fresh. It was a very tasty salad and was a pretty decent portion size as well. My only complaint is the menu claims there are Kalamata olives in the dish, but I didn't see nor taste any which was a bummer. For my entree I opted for the classic Bolognese. Very hearty meat sauce with fresh made noodles, and again was a decent portion so definitely expect to get full. The waitress who recommended the dish did mention that she usually adds red pepper flakes to offset the sweeter aftertaste you get with this dish, which I should've asked for & definitely will tell you readers to do, but even without it was a well executed dish. If you're a pasta lover like me I think you'll really enjoy Gourmet Italia. If you're a first time visitor of the Temecula area though just be sure to make an earlier reservation, so that you can also drive over and walk/shop around old town before the sun sets. read more
