I LOVE me some Phil's BBQ!!! Been a fan for years!…read more I used to drive all the way from Palm Springs to San Diego just to get my fix at least once a year before I made the move to Los Angeles So when I found out they opened a location in Temecula, you already know I had to pull up for some ribs!!! Service was great, and the food was finger-licking GOOD I'm honestly shocked if I ever have leftovers! It's always a great time at Phil's never disappoints Just a heads up: make sure you give yourself plenty of time because it's ALWAYS busy! Expect lines out the door, but trust me... it's worth it

That corn bread be hitting!!!…read more Oh my gosh. I am obsessed with the cornbread at Phil's BBQ. It is by far the best cornbread I have ever had! I didn't know I liked cornbread before Phil's LOL now I know that I like it, just only like it at Phil's lol My husband also loves the cornbread. The maple butter is aaaaaaaamazing on top too! I could eat this all day. We brought the leftovers home and my husband and I were fighting over the last piece! I'm not even joking lol That being said, I also ordered some cheese fries. I also ordered the giant pretzel with cheese. The pretzel wasn't bad. The cheese that came with it was fire. I used that cheese and poured it on my fries to make that better. It was bomb! I did eat some of the pretzel, it was soft on the inside and warm. I would order the cheese fries again, but do the cheese sauce from the pretzel on it instead of grated cheese. My husband ordered one of the rib combos and he enjoyed the ribs. He didn't care for the macaroni salad much though. We both wish that Phil's BBQ had a macaroni and cheese. They really need to add it to the menu. That as a side, would be much better! Service was fine. You walk up to order and go up to get your food, when it's done.

Stopped by the area and saw they still had brisket left. The brisket was juicy, Smokey and tender…read more Had some nice bark on the outside.

The Smoked Hog Pop-Up at Prolific Brewing Co.: BBQ & Brews Done Right!…read more Hit up The Smoked Hog pop-up at Prolific Brewing Company in Temecula, and it's a BBQ lover's paradise! Their brisket plate is unreal--juicy, slow-smoked brisket with a peppery rub, drizzled with tangy house-made BBQ sauce, and paired with creamy coleslaw. Pure smoky perfection in every bite! The staff are super friendly and they recommended a killer IPA that took my meal to the next level. Totally chill vibe where the whole family is welcome.

When you first walk into this place you have hope for great Texas BBQ. They options are simple (as…read morethey should be for a real BBQ place), meats and a few sides and some sandwiches. I ordered the loaded brisket fries, 1 lb or moist brisket, 1/2 lb or burnt ends. The loaded fries were awesome and fresh crispy fries with 3 nice pieces of moist brisket on top. Highly recommend Burnt ends - my all time favorite and hard to get at a true BBQ place as they go fast as true burnt ends are limited. These did not disappoint and were spot on. Brisket - I like moist was real real tender and had a great flavor. We also had a side of the brisket baked beans and those babies were amazing. The have not a spicy and a regular BBQ sauce and I loved the spicy for sure. The regular is spot as as well and I just prefer spicy. The pit master and his wife (?) were super nice and the resultant was very relaxed and not loud at all. This is the BEST BBQ in the valley hands down. I'm not a local as I live in Leander TX and this review is my own.

Sometimes, I'm just like everyone else. Similar others, I went with the two meat plate; brisket…read moreand (3 bones) ribs. Both meats were tender, smoky, with a well defined smoke ring with very good color. I got my food to go, but after seeing the nice decor inside, I kinda wanted to stay! The sides (Mac and cheese & corn) were fair, with just a little hint of flavor. I'll get the beans next time!!! Staff was quick to serve, but there were no other customers when I got there. I'll be back!

The tvs in the bar are small and quite old, making it less than ideal to watch a sporting event. They have a great draft beer selection and a few $5 drink specials. Theres plenty of indoor and outdoor seating so we were able to get sat immediately. Our server rushed us for no reason, asking if we wanted boxes just several minutes after we got our plates. The food quality is what I expected from a dive bar kitchen, though it did come out quickly which was nice. Wings were quite small and poor quality chicken. The nachos were massive with a load of brisket, could easily share with a few people. The brisket quesadilla was the best of what we ordered, with a nicely grilled tortilla and was delicious dipped in the sour cream and guacamole.

Next time. And next time I'm getting the sweet potato pie haha. Trying to convince my sister to get them to cater her rehearsal dinner. The place is a bit small so I felt a little bad taking up 2 tables for our party of 6. They do have outdoor seating!!

Lucille's BBQ in Temecula gives us the best of both worlds...Great food & Great service! Sharon…read moreattended to us and she made the experience so much better. Her drink recommendation was Spot on to what my taste buds were craving! I ordered a half slab of the St. Louis Ribs and they were sooo tender, flavorful, and filling . My sides were garlic parmesan southern fried okra w/ ranch as the dipping sauce and the other side was Mac-n-cheese. I loved the okra but not a fan of the mac. I really wish they would bring back the greens and the grits (not together of course) as a choice for sides. Anyhoo, my family and I truly enjoyed Sharon and the food at Lucille's... we all give it a 10/10 and highly recommend trying this place out....and ask for Sharon

We got three appetizers: fried pickles 8 out of 10; brisket Mac and cheese. 9 out of 10 but the portion is not worth the price. And the burnt ends 8 out of 10 but, again a lot of bread and not much Burnt ends. All in all a good meal and the service was outstanding.

She was attentive without being overbearing all while she was training someone new. The food was decent. I wouldn't say anything special. I got the Mac and cheese with pulled pork. My husband got the tri tip sandwich with onion rings. Apparently the onion rings were $3 extra charge and there was only 7 on the plate. Not impressed. We also got a beer and a Michelada. My husband asked for more michelada mix because it looked like they only out a drop in there. The bill came out to $90 and I don't think the food was worth that much honestly. I'd be back, but mostly for beers. Bonus points for the reusable Ball cups!

Ate at Steinerhaus on a Saturday evening and was not impressed. I ordered the Sweet and Spicy…read moreChicken sliders with baked beans. The sliders were decent but did not live up to the price in either taster or portion. The baked beans lacked flavor and seemed watered down. Speaking of watered down, the fountain drinks were definitely watered down... with some remnants of possible hops or some other type of aftertaste. The service was okay because the gentleman working seemed nice but he appeared to be the only waiter in the whole place and was definitely overwhelmed. The place was wide open and pretty much all outdoors so it's cool for a bar but not great for a dinner date. All of this gave me the impression Steinerhaus would be better suited as a bar serving bar food. If those are your expectations you'll probably be okay. If you're looking for a great bbq place to have a date night, this ain't it.

I'm visiting for the second time, and I remembered this place having some of the best meat I've…read moreever had at a KBBQ restaurant. The cuts were high quality and not overloaded with fat. For some reason, I just never made it back here; probably because the Promenade area isn't usually along our route. Coming here tonight genuinely brightened my day. I had just finished a long shift and a commute, and all I wanted was a good, comforting meal. My nutritionist told me yesterday need to significantly increase my protein intake to help reduce muscle loss related to my autoimmune thyroid condition. KBBQ seemed like the perfect choice; lots of protein without a lot of unnecessary junk. On my way home, I stopped at two other KBBQ restaurants. Apparently, I was unaware of the unspoken rule that some places don't serve parties of one on weekends. One restaurant even had me wait 25 minutes before telling me they wouldn't seat a solo diner during the weekend. Unfortunately, my husband is currently deployed, so being a party of one isn't exactly a choice for me right now! Normally, dining alone doesn't bother me at all, but today it got to me. I was exhausted and simply wanted a comforting meal. Being turned away after waiting 25 minutes just because I by myself was the last thing I needed. When I called this restaurant, the owner or manager immediately answered and was incredibly friendly. He explained that they offer entrée and plate options for guests who aren't doing the all-you-can-eat menu. I honestly don't understand why more restaurants don't offer this. I know the food industry is competitive and businesses have to make money, but having options for solo diners makes such a difference. When I arrived, I received wonderful service right away, and there was no wait, but they were full. The owner or manager recognized me as the person who had called earlier and went out of his way to make me feel welcome since we found out we're from the same area. He even added a little surprise to my order simply out of kindness. The entire staff was friendly, professional, and attentive. In an area with no shortage of restaurants, I want to give this place the credit it deserves, not only for the excellent food, but for the heart behind the business. Today, I'm especially grateful for the kindness and generosity shown to me. You never know what someone may be going through, and a simple act of thoughtfulness can make a bigger impact than you realize. His kindness truly lifted my spirits after a long and difficult day. I believe this is a small family-owned business, and they absolutely deserve the support of the community. Great food is easy to find; genuine hospitality is much harder to come by. I'll definitely be back!
