We've been to Meritage at Callaway Vineyards multiple times now and the food has always been wonderful. One of the things we like to do on our vacations, is to visit local wineries. Temecula/Murietta has a whole budding Appellation. It's also a fun opportunity to taste some new wines and to add a few bottles to our wine closet (no cellars in AZ, LOL). One of the other benefits, is to checkout the restaurants that are attached to the winery. To all my foodie Yelp friends out there, try it. We've done this all over the world and you'll thank me later. Meritage at Callaway, is a good example of one that offers an excellent Four Star+ food experience. It has an enclosed dinning patio, overlooking their vineyards (photos). The food is well prepared, seasonal and will appeal to most discerning palates. We stopped for a late lunch last time and I thought their Kobe Beef sandwich for $18.00 was delicious. Btw, their Carpaccio is also very good. Expect to pay $25, plus extra for whatever number of wines you want to taste. You will get 10% Off if UR a member of Callaway's Wine Club, as we are. Enjoy! read more

Bummer. Decided to bring my family here visiting. I dislike onions. Gave the waiter (George) six different meal options. Can we get "No Onions" - He said he had to ask chef and came back "I'm sorry - can't remove onions." Steak Sandwich, duck tacos, pork belly tacos, cioppino, Ceviche mango Ahi Tartare. Wow. Very disappointing. None-the-less. Sorry. Can't do onions. read more

A truly disappointing experience and was to be the highlight of my husband's birthday. After waiting 20+ mins after being seated at a table, we still had not been waited on. We left because no one wanted to serve us. Callaway Vineyards used to be our favorite vineyard but sadly no more. read more

Terrible, cannot believe the experience. Definitely will not go back. Service wasn't great throughout, we had to ask for water consistently, we sent back some food for under/overcooked, but the biggest issue for us was the backhanded subtle racism and condescending tone that our main waitress had and the fact that she (Jamie) accused us of stealing wine glasses (in which she grabbed one of our party by the arm and physically took the glass out of her wine carrier) and continued to insult us by calling ours cheap instead of apologizing for her accusations after realizing she was wrong. Our party of 10 continued our day in the tasting room where the Callaway staff let us know that it constantly hears bad things about the restaurants (not affiliated with Callaway) staff including rudeness and crass comments and retold some stories. As members of the winery we'll be back for the tasting room but never here again. But the wine was good, 1 star. read more

If you are looking for amazing service and delicious food this is the place to come. From the moment you enter you are greeted by a true gentleman that is courteous and make you feel welcome. Thank you Mr. Joseph for the grand welcoming. Mrs. Jamie made the list of top server. She was very attentive and courteous as well as going out of her way that we were being well taken care of. By far making us feel extremely welcome and enjoy our fine dinning. The customer service is constant since this is not the first time we dine here. Once again, you will not regret dining here. read more

It was our first experience to dine for lunch with my sister. I had made a reservation to make sure, we will be seated with the view. They just seat us my the corner by a cashier station. Our server. didn't even introduce herself. We have to ask for bread? Does it come with the meal? Took our order, didn't ask us if we need a drink besides water. Servers are not friendly. it seam like they want us to leave right away. They keep asking us if we are done with our plate and we still have food in our plate. When we were done, our server just gave us our check and she didn't even ask if we our a wine club member. Overall customer service is unsatisfactory. It was very disappointing. read more

Extremely under rated restaurant in Wine a country. The new manager, I believe his name was Chris, was amazing. He brought a whole new welcoming element to the restaurant. The food is top notch with amazing views. It's our monthly go to restaurant. read more

What a lovely place! Located inside Callaway winery. We visited for a nice lunch on our Valentines weekend getaway. The boy had made a reservation ahead of time and when we showed up they seated us immediately. We were seated in front of a big window overlooking the Temecula valley- talk about romantic. The restaurant is big but it was a quiet afternoon... perfect. Our server was very friendly and patient with us as we made up our minds. I ordered the baby lamb chops and a salad and my bf had the portabella burger with potatoes. The house salad was very good- the veggies very fresh and crisp. The baby lamb chops were also very good. I took a bite of my bf's burger and the cheese on it really stood out. All in all great food, good views, chill atmosphere. read more

We enjoyed lunch at Meritage. We had the 2014 Special Selection Mourvedre and the 2014 Special Selection Sangiovese. Both smooth and delightful, on the lighter side but very pleasant. We also had the Caesar salad with chicken and... CLAMS! Cannot say enough about these CLAMS! We will come back specifically for those. read more

This used to be the perfect place to visit when in Temecula. Great food, service and ambiance too. Mum loved their crab cakes & I enjoyed their diver scallops. It was every penny!!! Now it's subpar at best with many errors in our meal... Since covid hit and they reopened it's not the same... it's a shame they killed this great location. read more

We came fo Pick up my wine and have brunch. Well of course we had Brunch first. Well I was totally disappointed 30 bucks really only worth 20. my eggs were not over easy as I requested. So I had to wait for another order to come out. It was only three choices so I chose the steak and eggs seem to be the best bet and really it wasn't. Honestly I think that molasses moves much faster than the staff. No wonder they hav a line to get in, no people weren't knocking down the door to get in. Where's my waiter? Maybe he took a break. Well if you have all day or @ least 2 hours to lose and like you r eggs over hard then check it out. But I didn't recommend you. My first and last time for brunch here. read more

I've been here twice so far and I'm really not a fan. The location is prime and the view is phenomenal. That's just about all this restaurant has to offer. We had the same waiter both times and he should really not be a waiter. He's not good at it. He had all the specials written down to explain to us. What I didn't like was he said there was this brownie pudding dessert. What came out was a cinnamon raisin bread pudding. Not what we were expecting. The service was extremely slow and he didn't really check to see how we were doing. He also brought out the dessert with no utensils. Everything was cleared off our table then they disappear right after they give us food. It's very hard to get their attention here. Some of the food was ok and some was just horrible. I think that restaurants should explain the spicy level of the food before explaining it to customers. I can't handle some spicy food and I had really bad heart burn after taking a bite of my niece's salad. It was one of their specials. I downed my water because it was so spicy for my taste. The calamari has a kick as well but it wasn't as bad. The potato steak fries were ok. The cream was pretty good on that. They have these pork belly tacos which were ok but I probably won't order it again. The ceviche was delicious. They had this zucchini pork belly polenta special dish the evening I went and that was amazing. It should be a regular menu item. The desserts change every day so I was disappointed this layered berry dessert wasn't being offered again. The wine was ok. Ordered a Cabernet the first time and a Syrah the second time. Nothing amazing that makes the tastes stand out. It's a strong taste but that's about it. I like it when waiters explain the tastes of wine but the staff here doesn't do that. I recommend catching the sunset here. That's about it. read more

I am giving two stars as opposed to no stars only because George, our server was nice. Upon entering the host asked my name, no hello, how are you, nothing. Very uninviting. We were early diners and there were lots of empty tables yet we were seated directly in the sun. That paired with no AC on a 108 degree day was pretty much unbearable. Next we ordered a bottle of wine. George poured our glasses, upon lifting the glasses the sun allowed us to see how filthy the glasses were. Soap residue and finger prints. I got our servers attention and showed him how bad the glasses were and he agreed, they were filthy. George said he would get new glasses. When he came back with the replacements, he proceeded to dump the wine from the filthy glasses into the replacement glasses. Disgusting and extremely unprofessional. Next came my dinner order which was the Halibut. It was cremated. I had to use a knife to cut thru it. Hard as a rock I left it as it was uneatable. Very dissatisfying and disappointed. We could have gone anywhere and wish he had chosen somewhere else. read more

It was a minute since we had lunch here (since before Covid) we live in S. Ontario and decided to go back to Temecula to one our favorite places for lunch. They had nice wine, great scenery and what used to be a dining experience. After a 1 &1/2 hour drive (maybe longer) we arrived, yes we had no reservations but it seemed pretty empty in there, we asked if we could sit in the area that had a little nicer view but we were told those spots were for reservations (although no one seemed to be utilizing) oh well we got seated promptly, The menu had changed , oh what to do? To be honest we had been looking forward to our usual favorites. We both picked from the very limited menu. I ordered the mussels in a cream truffle sauce although it was on the appetizer portion of menu in the past the ones that used to be prepared in a white wine sauce was enough to be had for lunch, these were not I think I got 5 mussels a few pieces of little focaccia, I literally had to ask to purchase a side of those to even feel as I was not hungry (I used them to sop up the sauce. It was just ok! My husband ordered a roast beef sandwich that looked as if they bought it from the catering truck or from whomever packs lunches for the wine tours because the sandwich looked like it would of come in a brown sack. For us this was no longer a dining experience this was merely stopping somewhere for lunch! A total fail. Our bad, we should of checked for menu online and then made a reservation. We wish the restaurant the best in the future. We were there a couple months ago to be fair. First chance to write a review. read more

The setting at Meritage is hard to beat, a semi-enclosed patio situated on top of a bluff overlooking the vineyard and the valley. Unfortunately, the quality of the food didn't live up to the expectation set by the dramatic scenery and the 4 star Yelp rating. After a morning of blueberry picking, we stopped by for lunch. The kids had the grill cheese and cheese pizza. Not bad. The grill cheese came with wedge fries and giant strawberries. The cheese pizza was big enough to satisfy most adults. For the grownups, we had the ceviche, duck confit salad, and pork tacos. The ceviche included crab, fish, octopus and was served with crispy won ton skins. The fish was cut in cubes and was 'cooked' on the outside but still raw on the inside, similar a seared ahi dish. It was my favorite. The pork tacos, which was a special of the day, was disappointing. The pork was very dry and even when combined with the sauces and toppings just lacked any flavor. The corn tortillas were maybe on the grill too long because they were tough and I had to eat it tostada style. The duck was similarly dry and tough, though the salad was very fresh and nicely adorned. Overall, Meritage is worth the visit just for the view and setting alone. On a nice day, there's probably not many better places to be in Temecula Valley. Not sure what the comfort level is on hot summer days though. read more

Highly disappointed in my evening tonight from the manager didn't receive hes name to the server George was he's name !!! the hostesses were very friendly and great ! We came for my father in law birthday here, we are members of other wineries so we definitely wanted to try this place out complete fail do not come here if you have a party of six or more getting charged the tip is not a problem but the service was , they know that they're going to get tipped automatically so they treated us awful ! We order two bottles of wine to start and We already finished one waiting to open the other one nobody's in-site to help we wanted to enjoy two bottles of white wine for appetizers and then a bottle of red for dinner and dessert we couldn't even order a bottle of red because they took so long opening the other bottle of wine I should've brought my wine opener service was Godawful!!! our server was the worst server I've ever had or experienced he was very dry and did not pre-bust the table I had to ask a busser to please take my dirty appetizer plates and water refills gosh , we even asked our server about signing up to become a member in the beginning because we were going to purchase more bottles of wine to take home because that's what we do when we go to a winery and he said quote on quote oh idk it's a piece of paper you fill out over there I don't really know about that wow okay that's your response he was very busy he said with another group so we were very irrelevant to him ! And he absolutely ruined my father-in-law's birthday he came and brought the cake and just put it on the table he should've asked me would you like to put candles on the cake before you can bring it out and sing happy birthday like every restaurant does , no he completely ruined the surprise and he did not refrigerate the cake so the cake was not cold it was actually very disgusting because he didn't refrigerate it ruined my cake this was the worst dinning experience! Oh and the manager we asked him excuse me are you the manager he said yes we said can you open this bottle of wine and we like to add another bottle oh I can't do that I need to get your server are you kidding me you are the manager of this establishment you should be able to do everything but no he was also very busy worrying about the event that was going on next time there is event do not book customers to come and eat here because for us it was also very special day and it was completely ruined things to you guys ! We didn't make a scene because my father in law was already bummed which was heartbreaking !he just recovered from a heart attack and this was he's first time going out and y'all ruined it for him! read more

The Best Restaurant in Temecula! All the low raters are serious haters. I suspect some of them may be former employees who were fired or something. In any case, they are doing others a serious disservice. Someone complained that the restaurant was outdoors and not inside? You go to wine country for the view - and at sunset - why would you want to be inside? You want to be right there sipping wine watching the sky change colors over the vineyard. This is one of my favorite restaurants anywhere. I first found this place by chance. Saw the sign on the main road and was happy to find something in Temecula that was open past 6pm! Seriously, why does everything close so early? Anyway, that's what brought us in - then when we got there we found a special (at that time - although I've heard they may offer it again) of 2 people for $40 - including soup/entree/dessert & wine pairing! I'd never been a big fan of asparagus, but I have been talking about that asparagus soup for over a year. The hot blueberry cobbler was soooo good - turned my teeth blue, but totally worth it. We even drove back the next day - from LA - to have dinner there again! Since then, it's become one of my favorite day trips. I continually bug all my friends to go to Temecula with me and have dinner at Meritage LOL The chef prepares incredible meals that are elegant and incredibly tasty. I love the outdoor cafe with walk up wine bar. The view is incomparable (when the vines are green) - the vineyard, rolling hills, mountain in the background. I've always had great service. Food never disappoints. The chef even made that soup for me out of season (and not on the menu), although the mushroom soup is just as good. There was some construction going on in the parking lot last time I went, but I expect the place will be even better by the next time I can get out there. Can't wait to return - I love you Meritage! read more

So i went back...Daniel served us Saturday, Started my wine "tour" here (our private driver dropped us off @ 1230), lunch in a newly renovated alcove, beautiful windows, greeneries, iron works, and breezes. Young Spanish guitarist strumming his mistress. He never looked up from her curves. That's the kind of adoration I'm talking about! To start... Warm olive plate 2.5 ** 3 varieties, briny, some with seeds, needed cracks or bread to accompany (or hummus). It's not very sexy pulling seeds from your lips and placing the pits on the side plates. 5* unless otherwise indicated.... Must try ceviche! Perfect blend of lime, lemon, mussels, shrimp, fish, squid, onions, tomato & whatever else that made each bite a perfect bite. big enough for two or three people. I was ready to drink the juice when no one was looking. Per Daniel, our server, the recipes' Peruvian. Lamb! Grilled with mash potatoes, asparagus grilled spears. I wonder if they soaked it in milk to remove the game-I-ness (like we Virginians did with our venison and moose meats). Each bite succulent, spiced without overwhelming you. Bone in. Sexy cave man dish...except my girlfriend got it. She still looked gorgeous with her teeth barred, knife, & fork. Steak dish: forgot the name, but it was defatted, beautiful 8 ounces of moo moo. She told us to FORK OFF her dish. Needless to write, she did lick her plate when we were looking. She's a size 4. I guess that protein diet works for her. Special of the day Yellowtail 6 ounce fillet on a bed of grilled asparagus. Needed some lemon juice, so I ended up pouring the ceviche juice on it! I hope the cooks not offended. 3* due to needed more flavor and fish overcooked, slightly chewy. Steak fries were delicious, but I ordered the fries as an appetizer not realizing it already came with my plate. Why didn't Daniel son say anything? Grilled cheese and roasted veggie sandwich, a knife & forker unless you can unhinged your jaw like an anaconda. Gourmet cheeses melted. I've ordered this twice before because of the grilled and roasted veggies are great. Too bad the veggies aren't offered as an actual dish. My size 2 friend ate the contents and left the carbs. Discipline. 4* Sparkling Zin with carafe of OJ. They ran out of cranberry!!! Huh? Waters refilled frequently. We had to request the delicious brownish /orange bread: yum yum yum. (my skinny friend glanced longingly at our buttered lipgloss carb eating lips). 285$ & we still needed to pay tip. Wait, did I just faux pas and tell everyone how much something cost? How nuevo riche gauche of moi. We were ready to enjoy our weekend. What a great start. read more

We decided to do a one night getaway to Temecula and decided to come here for dinner. Although we made a reservation they seated us immediately when we showed up early. It was dark so we couldn't see the view, but since the restaurant is on top of a hill it appeared that it must be great. We travel a lot and really enjoy a good meal. Here we had a GREAT MEAL! We started with their bread, olive oil and humus which was very nice. We couldn't decide on wine so the waiter brought us sample tasters of the Rose and Gueurtztraminer (I hope I spelled it right) and settled on the latter, which was great. The GF and I then shared the Pear Salad, Lamb Tostada and Pork Chop which were all excellent as was the service. This was truly a memorable meal. Highly recommend! read more

We visited here this past weekend for my mom's birthday lunch. The restaurant has a really nice view of the winery. Although here was a line to be seated we got seated pretty quickly considering we had no reservations. The food was good, but I think some tweaks could be made to make it even better. We had the burger which was good but too meaty. They could prob make it a little smaller so it's not so overwhelming. Give me steak fries! I only got 5 and they were prob my fav part of the meal. The salads were tasty as well. We had the cannoli's and we were pleased. They didn't bring any bread or anything when we first were seated. It would be nice to have something to snack on. The watermelon sangria looked amazing. They had two really long tables for large groups. Our server was okay, he seemed annoyed the entire time and we had to wait awhile before ordering. read more

At this restaurant, you're not paying for the food. You're paying for the view! The view was spectacular. The food was less than average. They charged us for the bread plate; the bread plate they never brought us!!! They even forgot a few of our orders. It's a good thing we carefully reviewed the bill before paying. The service was not up to Standard. I will ensure I never eat here again. Such a waste of money when there are several other reasonable restaurant options in Temecula. read more

My husband made dinner reservations here for my birthday weekend. We wanted a day to ourselves without the kids, so we spent the day being "kid-less" and to end our day, we came here for dinner. Our dinner reservations weren't until 6, but we came at 5 to see if we can fit in some last minute wine tasting. They were closing down the tasting area as we arrived, so we browsed the giftshop and made our way over to the restaurant to see if we can sit at the bar for a bit. They were more than happy to seat us so it worked out. We were the first ones there and live music started playing. It felt nice, almost like the restaurant closed down for just us lol. We got tapas to start, I opted for the clams with bread and the sauce was amazing. The white wine butter sauce was to die for and we couldn't stop eating it with our breads. We had a few wine pairings to go with it. We were seated with a view of the vineyard and the sun setting, it was so beautiful. Then for an entree, I got the veal chop with chimmichurri sauce and it was delicious! My husband had a flat iron steak, I think. He seemed to like his dish. For dessert, my husband had the raspberry bread pudding and I had the orange creme brulee, they came out with a candle for my birthday. It was nice! I really enjoyed myself there and the live music playing really added to the experience. read more

This place has a lovely view of the vineyard and I really liked the rustic decore. The stone work was pretty too. I enjoyed a nice glass of wine while I waited for a friend who was inevitably late. Although this place is casual, most people were dressed nicely. A lot of skirts and dresses on ladies, guys wearing button downs. I would call this "winery wear". Anyone who has spent any time wine tasting or around wineries knows how people like to dress. You could get away with being casual, but leave your yoga pants and graphic t-shirts at home. I had the lamb shoulder flatbread sandwich. The lamb was tender and I loved the yogurt mint sauce and cucumbers. I ended up buying three bottles of wine at the tasting room on our way out. Overall a nice afternoon! read more

Had lunch at Meritage today. I must say I've had better lunches. Apparently, they have a new "french" chef that has taken over for the old chef. Menu was not up to par. Not as good as it used to be. It is now kind of a give-and-take. An example would be - the crabcake appetizers are delicious! However, the sandwiches suck! For instance, the new chef is making a ham and brie cheese sandwich with one little strip of prosciutto and one little strip of Brie on a huge French baguette? Used to be on a manageable brioche, WTF??? Our server, Monica, (who was the best server ever by the way) had the chef re-make it on sourdough bread instead. FYI-he doesn't put hardly anything on the bread, so it's a pretty dry sandwich. If you're coming to lunch here now, I suggest sticking with the salads and the appetizers. Main dishes and sandwiches really suck. ***PARENTS*** important FYI - their "kids meal" for a small piece of chicken breast and a few french fries was $15 BEWARE!!!! read more

The view is spectacular. It's wonderful. The food was the polar opposite. The ceviche appetizer was ok - but it needed salt, and i prefer my ceviche to have more fish, this was mostly octopus and mussels. It's not bad per se - but it's texture thing. I order the Kobe beef French dip as my entree. The bread was way to dense and thick, and it tasted stale. The bread to meat ratio was way way off. This also lacked seasoning - it desperately needed salt. And why put the cold salad on top of the hot fries and sandwich? It makes it wilt and then it makes the fries get soggy. For the price you pay, two salads, one app, two entrees; two sodas and one glass of wine for $130 before tip - I'd expect much much better food. read more

First timer here and unfortunately was not impressed. Came here in a group of 4 for a birthday, and luckily were sat right away. Once being sat without menus approximately 10 minutes goes by and finally were brought menus. The service would be rated 2 stars for something as nice as this place it was very unorganized. The food gave them an additional star. We were offered bread in which cost $5 ( be cautioned when asked, yes you do have to pay). The bread was flavorless and lacked taste. I ordered the special of the day in which was Lasagna and was not a fan. However what was delicious was the steak, it did indeed have flavor ordered medium and it came out medium. Lastly we ordered desserts creme brûlée and cannoli. The creme brûlée tasted like a coffee custard wasn't my favorite. And the cannoli had nuts inside the filling but was good. I don't think I will return to this restaurant. read more

While the pork chop was the only delicious meal that graced our table, and the wine was lovely, our server was un accommodating to our table of 11 with only one water refill pass and miscounting the amount of salads ordered. When the steaks arrived, 3/4 of them were the wrong temperature. One blue with one well done or medium well while all were rThe server stated that the one being sent back was not possible to do because they were out of steak before even checking - most likely due to closing coming up in forty minutes. When the one sending back her steak asked for the pork chop, we were told it wouldn't possibly be finished prior to the rest of our party finishing our meals. The noodles that finally came as a replacement were severely lacking in sauce compared to the other meals that were the same. Tiramisu was 10/10- AMAZING, creme brûlée was also fabulous. A shame the steaks were wrong and the pasta was dry. Definitely stick to pork chops and tiramisu for your visit! read more
