Absolutely worth the wait! We had about an hour-and-a-half wait for a table, but honestly, it worked out perfectly. We used the time to stroll around downtown, do a little shopping, and enjoy the area before our meal. By the time our table was ready, we were excited to sit down and eat. The food was delicious, and the service was just as impressive. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and well worth waiting for. Our server was attentive and friendly, and even with how busy the restaurant was, we never felt rushed. You can tell there's a reason this place has a wait. Great atmosphere, excellent service, and even better food. I'd absolutely come back next time I'll just plan on putting our name in and enjoying downtown while we wait! I completely neglected to take photos, but for once, that was actually a good thing. We were enjoying a true date night without phones or interruptions, just good food, conversation, and each other. Next time I'll try to remember the pictures! We did finish the night with the s'mores dessert, and it was fantastic. My only advice: if you're a dessert lover like we are, it's a little too small to share! Get the s'mores AND another dessert so you can share both and try something else on the menu. Such a great date-night experience from beginning to end. We'll definitely be back! read more

This place we found in Yelp in Temecula and wanted lunch while waiting for our trucks oil change. Apparently it's best to make reservations lol we waited for about an hour. Inside is very nice. Vibes were good. Service was very good!! 10/10 It was however; very warm inside. We didn't like that. Also, there were a few annoying flies. We got: Meatball appetizer: 10/10 Hot, delicious & very tasteful. Pizza was the steak & Gorgonzola: 7/10 only because the blue cheese was very overpowering. If you love blue cheese 9/10. We will come again. read more

The pizza was amazing. We had the taste of Italy, the blue cheese salad, and the meatballs. The meatballs were a little dry but the cheesy sourdough made up for it. The waitress was really nice and friendly. She wrapped up the experience very nicely. read more

Excellent place for dinner with a group. It had a fun wiccan vibe with the recurring goat theme. Staff is friendly and attentive. We got cheese bread, meatballs, strawberry salad, and steak pizza. Cheese bread- Dough is chewy with a crisp edge. It was stuffed with a gooey cheese blend that is mild and creamy. Served with a side of marinara. Meatballs- Big enough to share and very tasty. You get a hint of fennel and a melted cheese topping. Served with crusty bread slices. Strawberry Salad- Fresh and fruity with sharp arugula, sweet strawberry slices, and a balsamic dressing. Gave our meal a lovely brightness. Steak Pizza- Can't get enough of their dough! The cheese is perfect with a nice pull, and the steak is juicy with a smoky sear. Very filling. Great experience overall! read more

Make time to visit Goat & Vine this month for the limited time special "Pizza Bianca" as described by our waitress it's basically a white pizza and an everything bagel with cream cheese smashed together. A pizza hasn't made me this happy in a long time! We also got the Caesar salad and added blackened chicken which was just delicious. Highly recommend stopping here for dinner if you're in town. And make sure to use the convenient waitlist feature! read more

Check in on Yelp before you arrive for less wait time! Visiting from out of town we came to celebrate my birthday. This place is definitely worth a stop. You have to order the Goat & Vine salad and Summer in Italy pizza. The salad with champagne vinaigrette, strawberries, and tomatoes was so fresh, refreshing, and perfect for summer. The new seasonal Summer in Italy pizza with prosciutto, and it was delicious. We also had the seasonal watermelon sangria, which was served with a slice of fresh watermelon. The decor is so cute and makes the whole place feel fun and inviting. Romy was a great server and even had adorable watermelon earrings that matched the summer vibe. They also have nice, clean bathrooms nearby. I would definitely come back the next time I'm in town. read more

Nice, classy restaurant with plenty of seating. Our server, Cyrus, was very attentive. He checked in with us in the right amount of frequency such that it was not intrusive of our conversation. Hubby ordered the chicken salad (small) and I ordered the chicken salad sandwich. The salad was pretty hefty so we were able to share it. The sandwich was thick and had a generous amount of chicken salad filling. It came with lots of potato chips. My husband and I both thought the salad dressing and the chicken in the salad were pretty salty. I did not like the dressing at all. The appearance and ingredients gives an expectation of a Chinese chicken salad dressing (sesame) but to my disappointment, it was far from it. I appreciated that the chicken salad sandwich did not have too much mayonnaise. However, the sandwich itself could have used a thin layer of mayo as it was a bit dry. The grapes in the sandwich added a pleasant sweetness to it. read more

I've been to The Goat & Vine several times & I come here for the pizza. Specifically, the Hatch Chili Honey Chicken Pizza. It is always such a crowd pleaser. I love the caramelized onions, avocado & cilantro on it. It's a nice sized 14" pizza and good for folks to share. The pizza was delicious as always, too! Today, we also ordered the Caesar salad, and it was definitely a miss. It is also extremely expensive at $17. While it was generously sized, the salad was messy & falling off of the plate. The lettuce was too flimsy and did not have the classic Caesar crunch. The dressing was slopped on the lettuce in globs and was not uniformly mixed. The dressing was also very mustard-forward and too strong. Needless to say, I will not order it again! The restaurant is comfortable inside and serves a range of pizzas, sandwiches & starters. They also have some great desserts as well. They have a full bar. Service was pleasant and efficient. Parking is plentiful on the street and in the surrounding free garages. Peace. read more

I was excited to finally try this place out! The space feels warm and intimate, featuring exposed light bulbs and a lively, welcoming environment. Their popular Hatch Chile Honey Chicken Pizza offers a perfect kick of flavor and Mother's Meatballs are a must try. They offer their own unique cocktails, but also have a full bar. Even with it being super busy, our server remained attentive, friendly, and efficient. read more

Came here before a concert so we were on a time crunch. Checked in prior to arriving but unfortunately still had to wait 25 minutes once we arrived.

This place can get busy during lunch. We sat at the bar counter and service was a bit slow because they were busy. We got their garlic pizza with fennel sausage and ricotta and it was very good. Definitely a great spot for pizza with elevated specialty topping combinations. The restaurant was decorated with wood and moss for a rustic forest look. There is plenty of free parking available on the street or in nearby free structures. read more

Wow the pizza here definitely lived up to the hype! This place is by far the most reviewed on Yelp in the area so I knew I had to check it out. Joined the waitlist around noon on a Sunday and got seated at 1:30 - definitely join the waitlist ASAP as the wait can get really long, up to 2-3 hours. Keep in mind the pizzas can take up to 30 minutes as well. Our server was aware that we were on a time crunch and was very nice about checking in with us throughout our meal We got the goat and vine salad - mixed greens, strawberries, tomatoes, goat cheese, and champagne vinaigrette. Tasty and refreshing We went with the You Confit Me pizza - fennel sausage, ricotta, hatch chile honey, garlic confit, mozzarella and Parmesan, and added mushrooms as well. It was SO good. The perfect balance of savory, garlicky, sweet, and creamy. The pizza dough was perfectly baked and had a nice crunch to it. I can see why it's so highly rated! The decor was cute, modern, a bit industrial. Definitely a good spot for a date night or nice lunch or dinner celebration. Would definitely come back again for this pizza! read more

I can see why it's not a solid 5 star review! We were highly recommended here and if it wasn't for our last day in town.... I wouldn't give them a chance. We walked in 8 minutes EARLY and the guy cleaning told us they were not opened. We asked if we can sit and wait inside and he said no. Wow.. really? The door is wide open.. means welcome in! lol! Glad we stayed. The pizza dough crust is well worth the visit despite the initial encounter. I'll come back for the food! We split the goat cheese pizza (pretty much everything had goat in it.) No pun intended. It only comes 14 inches. Sounds pretty big, but worth it! We split the large the salad. read more

Goat & Vine is an Italian restaurant located in the heart of Old Town Temecula. They offer pizzas, cold and hot sandwiches, and salads. There was free parking at the parking garage across the street. We put our name on the Yelp waitlist right when they opened and were seated within 45 minutes for a party of two. The mother's meatballs ($21) came with big two meatballs and were flavorful and cheesy. It also came with cheesy bread which was nice to dip into the tomato sauce. The jalapeño lime carnitas pizza ($30) was like a taco on pizza; it was cheesy but I thought it could've used more carnitas. The spicy italian sandwich ($18.50) was good with lots of meat and a hint of spice. The location is super central so it's usually packed. The pizzas are the most popular things here but they also have other offerings as well as cocktails, beers, and wine. read more

The Goat & Vine - Hatch Chile Honey Chicken Sandwich - Pizza Near Me - Temecula, California

I stopped by The Goat and Vine in Temecula and had a really enjoyable lunch. The stone hearth kitchen vibe is welcoming, the service was attentive, and you can tell they put care into making things from scratch. The You Confit Me pizza was a highlight. It's garlic confit done right, paired with fennel sausage, fresh mozzarella, a touch of hatch chile honey for sweetness and heat, plus ricotta and red pepper flakes. It had great balance, a crispy yet chewy crust from the hearth, and the flavors popped without being overpowering. Definitely one I'll order again. The Favorite Turkey Sandwich on their house made sourdough was also excellent. Roasted turkey, creamy French brie, basil aioli, fig and balsamic compote, sprouts, and red onion came together beautifully. The sweet-savory combo from the figs really made it. Everything was tasty and well-prepared, the portions are generous and prices fair for the quality. Overall a great experience and I'd happily return to try more pizzas or their other sandwiches. Recommended! read more

Went here again on a recent date night with my wife. It's a very nice restaurant in old town. The food is always top notch, full of flavor, and tastes very fresh. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side but has a very nice atmosphere inside. The staff is friendly and we were checked on regularly. The only downside is the price of the food and of the drinks. The drinks as well are tasty but never really hit. If you haven't tried the food here it's definitely worth stopping by for lunch or dinner. - Mr.Narrwahl read more

Located at the edge of Old Town Temecula so parking is easier than deeper into the Main Street. Beautiful interior and aesthetic. High quality food and drinks, I have been wanting to come here for years and was impressed. The waiter was super knowledgeable. They have a completely separate area for their GF pizzas, which put my husband w celiac at ease. We went for lunch on a Sunday and it was quite busy but we were able to sit at the "bar" right away. I had the orange blossom mocktail which was herbal and light and delicious. We ordered the GF jalapeño lime carnitas pizza, and it was soo good. Really great combination of curated ingredients. I definitely want to try more of their unique pizzas. read more

The restaurant itself is chic, esthetic and alluring. Definitely a vibe. My husband and I were seated at the bar and we had the most amazing experience. The bartender, Anthony, was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the Orange Blossom Spritz Mocktail and it transported me to Italy. The aromatic flavors made me melt. Watching Anthony put it together was fun. He is a true professional and you can tell that he enjoys what he does. For food, we ordered the Breadsticks with House Sauce and the Hatch Chile Honey Chicken Pizza. Everything is freshly prepared and incredible! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will be back soon. read more

Cute little busy restaurant nestled on the side of Old Town Temecula. It's a very popular restaurant and I have been eager to visit. I signed up on the waiting list and was #8. I waited maybe 25 mins. Kristen was my server. Super sweet and very friendly. I ordered the hatch chile honey bucket sandwich. It was ok. Nothing that stood out. Blackened chicken, aioli, avocado and caramelized onions served with house chops. I also ordered El Guapo margarita. It was a raspberry margarita that was really good. Kristen suggested it and it was a great choice. I will probably visit again but definitely try their pizza or salad. read more

We usually really like going here even though it's pricey. But when you go and it's pricey and the food is burnt then we probably won't go back. We ordered 2 salads and 2 pizzas, the bill was over $100. The salads were very good then it went downhill from there. The Honey Hatch pizza was burnt on the edges, which is alright if it had been only a small area, but not more than half the crust. The bottom was completely burnt black and the pizza was so soggy from too much honey. The paper under the pizza was soaked with grease and honey. Not sure who made this, but they need to learn how to cook. read more

I had the hatch chile honey chicken pizza and it was delicious! Lots of complementary flavors: savory, spicy, and sweet. also had an orange blossom spritz mocktail, which was very tasty.

Very popular, so expect a wait on the weekends; I recommend you join their waitlist on Yelp. read more

Always great food and amazing service. Am happy to come back anytime I'm in Temecula.

Kristin was our server and she was great. All the food we had was delicious. We did the waitlist on Yelp even though it was a Monday night. We got there 10 minutes before the waitlist said our table would be ready and The hostess said we had a half an hour wait. So we were a little disappointed, but we waited and it was really only 10 minutes. The place is adorable and the food is delicious and just looking at everybody's food. Everything looked amazing. We had the best Chinese chicken salad that we've ever had and we also had the hot honey pepperoni pizza. read more

I'm not sure if I recommend this place if you wanna make it like a local spot you always go to it was really fun to try. I probably will try it again but now I've learned on the food portions a I'm not sure if I recommend this place if you're looking for a local hangout. It was definitely fun to try, but I've learned a thing or two about food portions and sizes. I started with the chicken pesto sandwich, which was doused in olives. It was horrible. I'm not going to judge it solely on that, but the sourdough bread was also so hard that it irritated my gums. Our waitress was very kind, and she took care of all our needs. However, she didn't seem particularly interested in hearing about the food. On the other hand, their pizza was amazing, their cheese bread was outstanding, and the salads were surprisingly large and delicious. The ginger beer, though, was flat. We brought it to her attention, but she didn't seem to care. We also waited 45 minutes for a table on a Tuesday. I ordered a lemonade, thinking it was made like fresh lemonade, but it definitely wasn't. If it was made fresh, they need to revamp their process. Overall, I'm just pointing out the things that didn't work for me. The restaurant itself is cool, and the vibe is good. The food was also good, but there were just a few small details that affected my visit. read more

The GOAT & Vine is a must go to spot in Old Town. Though I'm quite sure they have excellent menu items I just can't seem to get past ordering the pizza whenever my wife and I go there so my rating is really about their pizzas We've had several of their pizza offerings and every one has been stellar and by far the best pizza I've had in all of California. The service we've experienced has been quite good. The place gets pretty busy and the staff really work for their pay. As this place does get busy the staff may not be able to attend to your needs as well as you'd like although in my experience it certainly didn't seem like it was due to a lack of trying. The servers we've had have always been friendly and try to go out of their way to make your meal enjoyable. The place itself is pretty cool and has a bit of a New Your vibe going on in the heart of Old Town. I whole heartedly recommend The Goat & Vine. And, if you're able to get past the pizzas please let me know what you got and how it was. read more

Cute place! We enjoy trying out different restaurants and wineries in Temecula. The Goat and Vine was recommended to us. Upon arrival, we were fortunate to be seated right away because a party had cancelled. We tried the blueberry sangria which was okay in my opinion. My sister enjoyed the orange spritz. I feel like the menu was very heavy on carbs so if you are a carnivore, this is your place! We enjoyed the Goat and Vine salad a lot! The food tasted okay in my opinion. The service was wonderful though! read more
