The first YELP official review of 2024. Patience is a virtual I can work on. This place taught me how to be patience. Perhaps, this could be 2024 theme. I've been waited to get a table with my dog over 20 minutes. The server is very professional though, another an hour to get my food served. If you think, this is not acceptable to wait more than 45 mins, this place is NOT for you. This open-faced country style burger, just exquisite typical American meal. Of course, with the American's favorite tallboy celebrated my new year. I'm so grateful for the gentleman who I've met on the road, recommend to check out "Rainbow", the rancher town. The acres of land continued to down U.S farm in 2022, those agriculture rural town are slowly dying out. I take my hat off this restaurant keep on running to feed the ranchers, bikers, whoever stoppin by. The Pledge of Allegiance is a patriotic recited verse that promises allegiance to the flag of the United States and the republic of the United States of America is on the toilet wall. Regardless of either Trump or Biden supporters, we are all patriots, the courtesy of the red, white and blue; hardiness and valor, purity and innocence, and vigilance, perseverance and justice. A happy and blessed year ahead 2024 ! read more

Service was terrible. The owner was patronizing - instead of apologizing. After waiting for an hour for her oatmeal one in our group asked the owner how long does it take to make oatmeal the owner replied "I'm not the cook I don't know how long it takes. When asked if she would comp one of the meals because it came after all of us had finished eating - she answered "well she's eating it now - I can't give away free food. Pretty lame answer! read more

Sooo delicious! This was the closest good restaurant I could find from Pala resort. My sister and I came here around 6 pm on Friday and we waited around 10 min before we could be seated. I took the recommendation from yelp to try to Texas burger with a side of fries and onion rings. Man that was one of the best burgers I've had. There were 2 big burgers and just this meal alone can fill up 2 people. The burger had pickles, cheese, beef patty, beacon, avocado, onion ring, tomato to name some of the ingredients. I was already very full after not even finishing all the beef patty. The fries were also flavorful and soft. Coming from la didn't know that the sales tax was only 7.75% here. The whole meal for the two of us costed around $30 before tips, I thought it was good pricing, considering we also took home leftovers. We also ordered French toast and a sunny side up. The French toast was also so good! Definitely a heavy meal but I'd like to come back again! read more

I was very disappointed in this establishment. I came here with a friend who had a service dog. The dog was under the table and provided no issues while we were there. Due to the long trip there my friend asked for and gave water to the dog. Upon doing so, a waiter came over and said that service dogs are not allowed to drink or eat while working. My friend informed them how service dogs are always working and they need to eat and drink while doing so as they are living creatures. The waiter got snippy and then the manager came over and informed us that they reduce to serve service dogs. They kept assisting we go outside with the dog but my friend has a medical issue with being cold easily and it was a cold day that day. Mind you, we were only trying to give the dog water which has never been an issue in the past anywhere we have gone. He is a small, well behaved, trained, and registered service dog. I am just truly surprised by their lack of compassion for someone who has medical issues and requires a service animal. read more

The small town restaurant was a delight! My boyfriend's steak omelette had steak that was so tender and delightful. The potatoes were amazing.

This is a review of two days we went here 2 weeks apart. Trust me you want to make this drive from down south or up north! Tucked away in Rainbow (after Fallbrook...before Temecula). There's even a cute gas station and a convenient store that has bakery and old school candy! I can't change my order. I always order the ribeye steak with soup of the day. First week we went out it was clam chowder and the second time it was Mexican tortilla soup. Both were so good I drank it up! The steak is so perfectly cooked it's unbelievable (I get it medium rare). The pink is so perfect that even on the reheat it is is still pink! Both times I got the baked potato, but the rest of the family tried mashed potato and the french fries. They were completely satisfied with their choices. At the front when you walk in there is a dryerase board with the daily specials. One of these days I am going to have to try one of those, by sacrificing my ribeye order. I hear that they meatloaf is one of their popular dishes! The location of this restaurant seems like its in the woods. Lol...at night when you are walking outside it seems like you are in one of those olden days horror movies. Plenty of parking outside around the facility. Inside there are pretty good number of seating available. It is always packed when we go, but there service is so quick. Besides the quality of their food, their customer service keeps me returning. They have a bar with TVs located on one side of the restaurant that's busy on football nights. read more

My friend and I met today for a late lunch and everything was Great, as usual. We have both been here in the past and I love the food, service, a d ambiance. Always clean, always kind people, always yummy food! I had the Rueben sandwich but opted for sourdough bread and w onion rings. My friend opted for the tuna sandwich w fries. Both were very good! We will be back! read more

Unsuspectingly great food. It's located just off the freeway and shares a parking lot with a cute section of stores, like a general store, antique shop and candy store. So cute. The inside of the restaurant is huge. Lots of natural light and more importantly, AC :) we opted to sit outside since we didn't want to wait and their patio fans makes a nice breeze so you don't mind the heat too much. Service was quick and easy. Really laid back and helpful. read more

I understand when restaurants get busy, but there's no excuse for this. This plate should not have even made it to our table. The cook should not have put it out on the plate and the server should not have brought it out, looking like this.We came on Wednesday afternoon read more

I'm pretty sure I died and spent an hour in heaven yesterday morning. We enjoyed one of THE best breakfasts we've ever eaten. The sausage is homemade, the hash browns perfect - crunchy outside and moist inside, the sourdough bread toasted to perfection. Portions are large so we took the rest home to enjoy later.

I have been here many times. One of my favorite places! Must have a new Manager! Food and portions very good and more than fair. HORRIBLE Manager! Young guy not at all willing to work with patrons. Someone needs to teach him Customer is always or at least often right! Don't come cuz if you have any concerns or issues this young man will not care!!! read more

Ok......so...... This is a locals restaurant. Pure and simple. The food.....incredible. It's down home diner food. The tri tip is pure bliss, prime rib night is a must, fish and chips are orgasmic, fried chicken will make you slap yo mamma as they say. everything is phenomenal. The service is lacking tho. Gotta have patience here, but believe me it's worth it. Cherish is BY FAR the best behind the bar. She absolutely ROCKS IT. You can tell she knows what she's doing and does it well. Jake cares a lot since it's his family restaurant but is often overwhelmed. Everyone else is mid. Shouldn't have to ask for napkins and silverware. Don't let that deter you tho. The food is rib sticking, gut filling, down home country ass food that you will come back for. Don't skip on their breakfast either. Oh and they have the best bloody Mary's I have ever had. Don't f**k around here. Locals will defend this place and the staff. They play the National Anthem daily. They have signs permitting the carry of firearms, so don't be shocked if you run into a local with a holstered pistol. It's Rainbow, get over it. That all being said....EAT HERE. You won't regret it. read more

Let me start with why the picture is half eaten....The portions are insane and you can easily share between two people. I'd like to think of myself as a country fried steak enthusiast and this was hands down the best I've ever had! They use a batter rather than just a breading mixture which kept it from getting soggy. The gravy itself was very flavorful and there was no need to add salt or pepper. A lady stopped me in the bathroom and gave me a quick run-down of the history of the property. Certainly a gem of a place and we will be back soon! read more

First time here. Fabulous food, excellent service: our server was Mike, (he as terrific), our hostess was Victoria. A good friend referred us here& she tried to buy a desert for us over the phone ( it was our wedding anniversary), but the restaurant couldn't do it. Our only disappointment was that the restaurant did not offer us a dessert in honor of our anniversary. I can count about 25 restaurants that give a dessert for a birthday or an anniversary Cheers, Walt read more

Great little hidden gem that we have near Temecula. Waited about 20 minutes to be seated but not bad for a weekend. Food was delicious full of flavor and quality. This place has mom and Pop written all over over. Our waiter was good quick and consistent and I love the place. The decor is nice. The best part was when noon time came they did the national anthem. Just an awesome experience that there are still places that do this. I live 10 minutes away and will make this place my go to. read more

I love the family feel of this place. The service is very good and the food is great too. I can't wait to return.

Poor service! While staying at Fallbrook for the weekend we picked this spot to support local businesses. Unfortunately we didn't have a good experience because we had to wait over 30 min to our food to be served while watching the next tabel who came in later then us got all their food. We ordered the same kids meal for our boys one of them had a mickey pancake with larger pancakes and the other one had dollar size pancakes. Of course it doesn't matter for adults how your pancake is shaped but unfortunately it made my son very sad. We will not be going back. read more

We went with family our second visit since the first was such a good experience. However, this time wasn't as nice. Maybe it was because we sat outside. Maybe it was the different server. Maybe they had a different cook. Maybe because it was a busier morning. Definitely not as pleased this time. read more

DOG FRIENDLY so plus for us. We just missed the standing Pledge of Allegiance they do daily, wished we made it there in time to do that. Cool that they're patriotic! Took awhile standing at the host stand to get seated outside and there were empty tables. But seemed more like they were making sure staff could service us. Very friendly staff. Waiter knew the menu well when I asked some questions. The orange juice mimosas are good. Long wait for the food to come out, over 30 minutes and we had to go inside to flag down a waiter to find out when our food might be coming out. But they were packed inside with people so I get it. Really large portions of food and the food is always really good. I really liked my Eggs Bene Corn Beef Hash. Wife really liked her Monte Cristo (I did too, I got a bite). She's gotten that a lot and it's always good. read more

We went for the Wednesday Prime Rib dinner. The restaurant was cozy and crowded, with friendly service. The food came out quickly, too. A couple prime ribs, liver and onions, and a flat iron steak for the kids to split, we were stuffed and out in an hour. The green beans and tomatoes were a delicious side, and you can never go wrong with a baked or mashed potatoes. They have saltines for the soup and salads, too. Everything was great! read more

I got blueberry french-toast with sausage and eggs and all of it was excellent and above my expectation. My wife got the club sandwich and she also really liked it. The service was also top-notch, like they genuinely liked doing their job as they waited on us. And all of this was in a very interesting rustic environment that was very enjoyable. Eating here was the highlight of our trip - thank you all at Rainbow Oaks Restaurant for making it special. read more

The Best!! Can't say enough about how amazing the food is! Absolutely the best country fried steak ever a I've had a bunch. Home fries made from last night's baked potatoes are absolutely next level! Freshest and most delicious biscuits and gravy! Huge portions of awesome food!! read more

Thank you- THANK YOU, Rainbow Oaks for taking care of our +25 motorcycle gals yesterday! Although it was raining cats & dogs- we all had to drive (Womp womp)- your heated patio area accommodated our rowdy party with such finesse! Jonah did such an amazing job keeping our orders flowing & always checking up on us! The transparent vinyl (I think) pull downs to keep the cold wet wind at bay from the outside of the patio area also helped too! This was my second visit here within 2 weeks- and this time around I snagged the corned beef hash. One of my fave go to comfort foods. Although canned- but no biggie bc I grew up on the canned version as a kid. And this time I got the home fries that had some green onions & bell peppers- which were diced in small portions and not huge chunks. Gotta have the shredded cheese on the home fries! We encouraged our group to carpool- and I love how your location has a good size parking area. read more

My husband and I have driven by this place several times over the years and finally decided to give it a try. Apparently, we've been missing out! I ordered a blue cheese burger and fries and my husband had the tuna melt and onion rings. The portions were generous and the food was delicious! My burger was a 12 oz patty on a wheat bun. There was a huge helping of blue cheese and it was served with lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles on the side. The french fries can be described as large curly fries? I'd never had a fry like that before, but that's beside the point. They were soft and fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside! Just the right amount of salt! The tuna melt was one of the best I've ever had! Like any good wife, I had to sample my husband's sandwich to make sure it was good enough for him to eat! It was served on rye bread, and there was so much tuna, it kept falling out of the sides. His onion rings were sweet, crunchy, and oh-so-good! I didn't snag any pictures of our food before we started eating because I wasn't expecting to write a review, but I did get a few after photos. This is what we had left and took home for later. We stopped by the country store just adjacent to the restaurant after lunch. The clerk mentioned that the restaurant has delicious fried chicken on Tuesday nights and prime rib on Wednesdays. She said it's worth trying. We will definitely be back. read more

We took a short trip to Fallbrook and had really good luck with finding great food. The one place that we always talk about is this place. Rainbow Oaks and their prime rib. We walked in and thankfully didn't have too long of a wait. We were lucky and happened to get here on a Wednesday night when they had their Prime Rib Special. It was a great price and decent portion, although there was a lot of fat on the cuts. The taste was exceptional. I still think about this prime rib from time to time and want to plan a trip to Fallbrook again JUST to eat this again. I don't recall the oz specifically but they had two different oz options for the special price. The restaurant is also beautiful - lots of wood interior and very American themed. I don't remember to tell you, but there's a story behind the building and all the wood! They have a large parking lot. I would highly recommend to anyone! read more
