    Chicken quesadilla and taquitos appetizers
    Savannah S.

    One of my favorite spots and so cool it's now a rodeo themed cafe/bar we sat at the bar and had great service! The drinks were great. I got a mango Margarita with tajin rim and my husband got a blonde beer the appetizers were delicious too. Everything was served fast. Great atmosphere. Fun for a date night or to gather with friends! Will be back to try more soon

    Club sandwich
    Cindy E.

    Service was quick, friendly and attentive. Our first time here and we were impressed. Nice patio seating to people watch. Lol. I had the Philly cheesesteak that was Delicious. Came out hot and tasty, and the bun was fresh and soft. Husband had the club sandwich and enjoyed it also. I definitely want to come back for their breakfast menu.

    Service was great -- our waiter Isaiah was attentive and attractive in his western hat. Food delicious. Seating either indoor or outside. Ambiance very western with a big photo of John Wayne inside. We opted for a late breakfast which did not disappoint. We'll be back.

    Super cute decorations for the holidays and the staff were all really friendly! I love that the patio area was dog friendly and brought our dog a water bowl while we were dining. The food was really good! The flavor was good and it was nice large portions! The green chilaquiles were delicious and the rodeo potatoes are a must try!

    We had family visiting so we decided to try Rodeo cafe. The patio area is good sized and was decorated very fun for Dia de las Muertos. Located in Old Town Temecula, parking is recommended at one of the public parking areas like the parking garage near city hall. I had waffles, eggs and sausage, it was delicious. Coffee refills kept coming, the service was great. I'd definitely go back.

    Portions were humongous! I literally had to take half my plate home. This was a great brunch place to eat at after a night of drinking. My huevos rancheros plate with red sauce was yummy. Super filling! Good service. Free parking at the public garage.

    Cowboy Salad with steak
    Jasmine G.

    My friend and I came here for dinner and the food was just ok, nothing that I would come back for. I had the Cowboy Salad and the steak had an odd texture. I did have a hiccup with being overcharged, but they were prompt to address the situation. Breakfast seems to be their jam, so I might come back for that.

    French Toast with Bacon and eggs

    I love their breakfast! Generous with portions, tasty, and great price. Fast and friendly service. Enjoyed the outdoor dining especially on the weekend, can't beat a good breakfast and the old town vibe! Staff were attentive and courteous. Looking forward to my next visit.

    Absolutely love this place! I've been going to the foothill location for a few years now and it's become my favorite breakfast spot. I was so excited to hear that they were making a location in Old Town Temecula! The food is amazing as always and the servers are so sweet. I can't wait to come back!

    Beef taquitos
    Tron N.

    This is a solid Mexican Restaurant. Came here after a long golf outing. The cocktails are delicious, especially a cold blended margarita. Ordered the taquitos and beer-battered shrimps. Staffs were attentive and friendly. Got all our orders correct.

    Green chilaquiles
    Mallory M.

    Rodeo Cafe is located in a prime spot in Old Town right across the street from 1909. I was excited to try the food because I read good reviews and the interior decor looked charming, especially for the Christmas holiday. It is rodeo themed with horse saddles on display and barrels as part of the decor and furniture. The facility was kept clean and the service was great. Unfortunately the food was very mediocre at best. The chicken fried steak looked like a processed meat patty, and the green chilaquiles were just okay in flavor. The best part of our meal were the potatoes and the hash browns. There was also a small strand of hair in my food. I wish the food was more appealing because the service, atmosphere, and location were great.

    Chilaquiles
    David S.

    Wow, wow, wow!! First off, the service was excellent--thank you to the hostess and my server. The chilaquiles were AMAZING. Perfectly crispy, and then topped with that incredible meat sauce. Truly outstanding. Thank you for bringing back childhood memories of chilaquiles.

She was juggling multiple responsibilities--including printing labels for what looked like back-of-house operations--while still providing friendly, attentive service. She did a great job. The atmosphere is one of the best parts of Hendo's. Plenty of TVs, a great bar, and a comfortable, inviting space that's easy to relax in. Even the unsweet iced tea stood out--it actually had good flavor, which is surprisingly rare. The appetizers were very good, and the Fourth of July brisket special was an excellent value. There was plenty of food, and the brisket itself was delicious. My only suggestion would be to automatically serve it with barbecue sauce instead of making guests ask for it. Once the original server had to move on to other duties, service slowed down quite a bit. The young gentleman who took over wasn't very attentive, and it took longer than it should have to get the things i needed. Even with that, I still gave Hendo's four stars. The atmosphere, the food, and the overall experience make it a place that's well worth visiting. We'll definitely be back.

On Saturday we wandered into TCI for dinner and started with the heirloom tomato and burrata with crostini. It was so fresh and delicious that I briefly considered writing the tomatoes a thank-you note. Next came the Harvest Valley Salad, which somehow managed to make me genuinely excited about lettuce--an achievement that deserves recognition from the culinary Olympics. For our entrée we ordered the Wagyu Steak Frites with chimichurri. The steak was cooked so perfectly it should probably be framed instead of sliced. Every bite was fantastic. We finished with the ube panna cotta, which was elegant, silky, and the kind of dessert that makes you promise you'll "just have one bite" before accidentally eating half of it. Nathan took wonderful care of us all evening. He was warm, friendly, attentive, and struck that perfect balance between making us feel welcome and giving us time to enjoy the gorgeous patio. Watching the sunset with live music in the background and that spectacular view? It was one of those evenings that quietly reminds you why people go out to eat in the first place. Apparently we enjoyed ourselves so much that we came back the very just two days for lunch. (Scientific research requires repeat testing.) We started with the hummus, which arrived looking like it belonged in an art gallery. Fortunately, it tasted every bit as good as it looked. Then came the chile relleno, which was absolutely outstanding. If this dish ever goes missing, I'd recommend checking my refrigerator first. Faith was wonderfully friendly and outgoing, and our food expeditor, David, was so genuinely warm and personable that by the time he left the table, it felt like we'd known him for years. Restaurants can teach hospitality, but that kind of kindness is simply who some people are. My only tiny suggestion: please turn on the patio misters during these triple-digit California afternoons. The food was keeping us warm emotionally; the weather was handling the rest. And on the way out we let Christine know the carpets at the entrances needed a vacuum. Fantastic food, exceptional service, beautiful views, and an atmosphere that keeps drawing us back. Cork Fire Kitchen has once again reminded us why it's one of our favorite places to dine. Bravo to the entire team!

We stopped for dinner and the did not appear busy. There was plenty of free parking available in the shopping center and indoor/outdoor seating. It was very windy and too cold to eat outside, so we opted to eat inside. There were only four tables to choose from and one bathroom. This became an issue when someone was already using the bathroom, probably blowing it up since it had already been five plus minutes, and both of my kids had to go (we ended up going to Trader Joe's to use the bathroom). The food finally came out. We ordered 2 tri-tip plates, a chicken sandwich, a kids quesadilla w/rice, and 4 drinks. I was concerned about the tri-tip after reading many others complaining about it being overcooked. This was not an issue. The meat came out cooked perfectly, but the pieces were small. The mashed potatoes were good and buttery. The mac & cheese was good and had a nice flavor. The Brussel sprouts were undercooked, hard, and bland. The bread had soaked up the blood from the tri-tip and was soggy gross. The kids quesadilla was literally 2 store bought tortillas and some sprinkled cheddar cheese that wasn't even melted in between. I didn't care for it, but I'm glad my son ate it. Overall, I had high expectations for this place and it was lacking.
