Country Fried Steak
Ruby O.

Haven Haus Cafe has a fantastic location right in Old Town and the staff was so kind and welcoming. I had high hopes for the Benny Avo Benedict with country potatoes, but it turned out to be really bland and needed a lot of salt and hot sauce to get some flavor going. My partner's country fried steak was nice and tender, but also tasted like it was missing seasoning. With a little more attention to the seasoning in the kitchen, this place would be a total 5-star winner because the vibe and service are wonderful. 3 stars for now!

Breakfast menu
Henry T.

Great breakfast spot in the heart of Old Town Temecula. It can get crowded during prime time for weekend brunch, though if you hop on the waitlist before you arrive, it lessens the overall wait. Large patio and bar seating area with indoor dining as well. Modern decor inside with a bright natural light. Employees were friendly and good ratio of service staff to patrons. Food came out in a decent amount of time after being ordered with a fairly busy restaurant. Portion sizes are generous for many items so don't order too much unless you're hungry. The coffee did take quite a while to arrive after the food, so that was a bit disappointing. Onto the food: French Toast- 4 large pieces of Texas Toast which had good egg flavor and soaked up the syrup well. Chicken & Waffles- Waffle was cooked exactly as I like with a bit of crisp to it. Held up great even after syrup. The chicken portion was good with 2 good sized pieces with light breading. The problem was it was so dry, it was barely edible with sauce. Took quite a bit to chew through. Will definitely be back if I'm in the area as overall the food, service, and ambience makes it worth the weight. If you're fine with walking, easy parking available about a block up in the large parking garage as street parking otherwise if you want to be super close.

Came here during Saturday breakfast with the family. Chicken and waffles was good as well as the breakfast burrito. The drinks were also pretty good. I had the Beetlejuice drink which was ube and matcha. Pretty good spot to try in the area. I'll be back to try other things on the menu.

Breakfast tacos. DELICIOUS!
Allie G.

Would come back to Temecula just to eat at this place. Wait was long but so worth it. Explored the streets while we waited. Had an amazing waitress named Illana who was extremely attentive and seemed like one of the girls whenever we stopped by our table. The place was a vibe. So much to look at, beautiful plants everywhere. Even the bathroom was clean and fun to look at. Food was a vibe as well. Delicious & beautiful to look at. Already missing my pumpkin pancake shaken espresso haha!

Cappuccino by Iliana at Haven Haus
Moana L.

Food was amazing and ambience is so cool! Best part was our server Iliana. Phineas, who made our delicious cappuccinos. We would come back for the cappuccinos alone. The am a business owner and what catches my attention is when service is amazing. Thank you Haven Haus Cafe and thank Iliana.

Chilaquiles platter & coffee flight
Alaina Z.

Visited Haven Haus for the coffee flight yet I left with the flight, a seasonal sample and a yummy chilaquiles platter. I went alone and sat at the nicely decorated bar, the service was quick and staff was friendly. Will return!

Big country skillet with over easy egg
Christine V.

Cute breakfast/brunch spot with pretty pink and green decor! Love the mix of modern and vintage pieces throughout the restaurant. We always make a stop here for breakfast whenever we're in the Temecula area. Hands down, their churro-style French toast is the best, and their skillets are yummy too! They also offer lattes, teas, and mimosas. The waitresses are attentive as well. Great spot to enjoy breakfast or brunch with friends and family!

Cocktail menu
Kelly S.

Cute place, but not worth the wait. If it's busy, try to see if there are seats at the bar since those are first come, first serve. Food and drinks were ok. For breakfast, we got the Spanish latte, tequila sunrise, and honey chicken biscuit sliders. Service was slow. My coffee arrived last out of all the items.

Iced chai tea latte
Hannah C.

First time to this brunch restaurant today with friends and we were so excited because the pictures online looked amazing! We like that we could join the waitlist especially on a weekend to guarantee our place in line. When we arrived we were seated right away outside on the patio. The umbrella at our table fell on us twice which was really inconvenient but the manager was able to take care of us. We loved our drinks! The chai latte was pretty good, the pb & slay was super sweet if you're into that. The ube matcha had great flavor too. The crunchy french toast was so delicious! Great flavor & great texture. The breakfast sandwich was so good, but I just didn't care for the jam on it very much. Huge portions here great menu overall, can't wait to be back again.

Madison was so great! So kind! Would come here again if she's our server! 10/10 Can't wait to come again

Came on a weekday by 10 am to meet a bunch of girl friends, we were 6 . Table are not large so can feel a little tight on the seating. We were charged the large party group so automatically added 20% gratuities. Staff was friendly and attentive, came over several times to ask if we needed anything. The food presentation and taste were both good. Started to get busy around 11:30 pm. They did split our checks which was nice. Would definitely come back again

Outside entrance
Janis R.

Good atmosphere...dining inside and out (with misters). Combo of tables, counter, booths and high tops with nice decor. Service good and everyone friendly. Food a good mix with hummus board, shrimp ceviche, salads, tacos and sandwiches. Great breakfast menu too although we visited for lunch. We had Cobb salad (good) and steak protein bowl (very good) plus guacamole and chips (good and homemade chips). Thoroughly enjoyable meal and we'll b back again. Oh, also, good liquor offerings!

Tried Haven Haus for brunch after seeing it recommended on Yelp, and overall it was a pretty good experience. The food was an 8/10, but the drinks were closer to a 4/10. We ordered the crepes since we're big crepe fans. They were a little different than what we expected since they weren't stuffed, but we made it work and they still came out really sweet and enjoyable. I ordered a caramel latte and my husband got a Coke Zero. Even though the drinks didn't hit, the food definitely made up for it. Service was quick, but it felt a bit impersonal since we had three different servers and didn't really get the chance to connect with one. The ambience was really nice -- super chill, and the interior is honestly really pretty if you're into taking pictures. I'd definitely come back and give it another try. I didn't even get to order what I originally had my eye on because the crepes distracted me real quick, so I'm looking forward to trying more of the menu next time.

There are plenty of great spots in Old Town Temecula, but the family decided on the Rodeo Cafe on a…read morefine sweltering SoCal fall evening, and we loved it. Sorry I don't have more pictures of what the family ordered, but I got the half rack of ribs, and it was tender and juicy and you must get an extra side of their barbecue sauce! What stood out? The service was great. The music from the DJ was lively ( if you want a quiet night, maybe sit outside where you're not too near the speakers). The loaded potato skins, mashed potatoes, and fries were also top notch, and I'm not even a potato guy! When the wife said the tortilla shell on her tostada salad was the best she's ever had, I thought she was just exaggerating. She was not! It was so good that I told my mom to try a bite, and she's usually resistant. One bite, and she asked, ooh can I have another piece? My dad, same thing. The fish tacos! Yes! There was a bit of cilantro in the salsa, and I don't like cilantro, but I didn't care. Everything was too good. Please get the fried fish too. The grilled fish, save that for another time and another place. My boy was in the mood for what I thought was a boring order of mac 'n cheese, and again I was proven wrong. He let me have a taste, and again it was top notch mac 'n cheese. Stop lying to yourself and giddy on up to the Rodeo Cafe already!

The restaurant has a cozy, comfortable and family-friendly feel with plenty of seating. The staff was friendly and professional throughout our visit. They also offer daily specials, cocktail specials and happy hour, with a large menu that gives you plenty to choose from. I'm looking forward to visiting again and trying some of the other items on the menu!

We arrived with 15-20 folks. The air conditioned indoors was a welcoming environment! What I like is that you order at the counter so that the issue of splitting checks is not there. When we ordered you saw a sign that said this isn't fast food your food is made to order to warn us don't expect your food right away. I was slightly worried because we had a second game in 2 and a half hours but I knew it would be okay. We ordered and sat inside. The staff was kind enough to let us move tables around. Then I'd say within 10 minutes our food orders started coming out. The orders then continued to come out at a very steady pace! We were shocked. Then we were shocked at how DELICIOUS the food was. One by one like a chorus of glee, each person commented on how much they enjoyed their food. The menu was so vast that no one had the same order in the adults and each person loved their food. There was only one hiccup. One of the parents order a canned drink but didn't notice that it was alcoholic. This was in no way the fault of the restaurant as it was obviously beer. The parent didn't complain he just opened it and left it. The waitress who was bussing our area asked him was something wrong if he didn't like it and the dad said, I didn't realize it was alcohol. The waitress walks over with the POS machine asked him is order number found the drink and refunded it to the dads card. She did this completely unprompted and strictly because she felt it was the right thing to do. THAT is how you provide excellent service! Thank you The Local Provisions for your gracious hospitality! We will be back!

I hope they continue to hire him to play live music because he was the highlight of the evening. The food was mediocre at best. The poke was not very good, the pieces of tune were huge and there was like 5 big cubes of it that were seasoned strangely. They put what tasted like a sweet eel sauce or a balsamic glaze on top which ruined the flavor of the whole thing and is not a usual poke flavor. I had a few bites and gave up. Then I ordered the fish tacos and those were ok, and not bad honestly. Just very heavy handed with the sour cream on top which kind of ruined it otherwise they would have been great. The drinks were awful. We tried 3 and all of them were bitter and not very tasty. I took one sip of the "spritz me up" and sent it back for a different drink instead. The service was OK. I feel like we could have been checked on more and I waited 15min after my first sip of that drink to replace it with another one and then waited another 10min for the replacement for almost half an hour of waiting for a drink that was drinkable. Then we asked for a printed receipt and she just clocked out and never gave us one. The ambiance was fine and like I said, Jon Dutch made the evening worth it. Otherwise I would not come back unless he was here providing entertainment. If I come again, I'll try all new things as I wasn't impressed with anything I ordered this first time I tried the place.
