I wish I could give this restaurant 10 stars. Our meal was perfection. I had the 8oz Filet and it was one of the best I have ever eaten, and I've had a lot as it's my favorite cut. All the sides were delicious. The service was also excellent. It's a loud restaurant, pretty typical but it is nicely designed. Be prepared to spend a fair amount but it is worth it. read more

The Great Oak Steakhouse - 8oz Filet, smooth potatoes and grilled asparagus. - Steakhouses Near Me - Temecula, California

I came here for my bday and it was such a great decision, although very pricey but you can't take it all with ya right! My man spoiled me beyond measure, we got the Tomahawk, bone in family style, it only came with asparagus and mash for... $198. I really wanted the steak and I love a good bone in steak. For this price, they could do better with the sides, I mean, asparagus and potatoes aren't that much and especially in bulk. In my opinion m, these sides do not match the overall esthetic of the restaurant. The sides should be way better! Although they were good we wouldn't spend the money again. We also got bread, it wasn't good, it was just too much of a different variety and they should give free bread and make you pay for that kind of bread basket. The wedge salad was amazing!!! I could have just ate that, no joke, it's so good. The Mac n cheese was definitely a great choice! It was so bomb! Get the mac n cheese I also loved my waitress and should have gotten her name! This place is great for their employees bc they're not overworked, well it seemed as if they were not and many people helped out with our table collectively! Five stars for that! That also creates a happier environment for employees. Overall I would come back here, especially bc it's located inside of Pechanga, the food is great, and the customer service is top tier. I just wouldn't get that tomahawk and wouldn't get so much but could have the Mac n cheese with a salad for dinner or just a steak. 10 out of 10! Oh and the waitress said you really don't need sides for the steak, they have lots of side/sauce options but they served the steak with a house made A1 and it's so damn goooood haha read more

We purchased tickets to see the MJ Live show at Pechanga and made reservations for dinner at Great Oak Steakhouse well in advance since they do book up quickly. The show started at 8pm, so I made sure to give us ample time by making our reservation for 6pm. This allowed us to take anything we needed to the car prior to the show. If you have been to this casino before, you know its big and theres lots of walking between the casino its self and to get to and from the parking garage. My mother is 78, so I really didnt want to rush in any way. I would also like to add that in my reservation comments, I said we were attending the show and that we are trying to give my mom a great experience by taking her to this dinner first. We arrived 10minutes early and were sat very quickly. I was dumbstruck when I saw where they sat us. We were in the furthest room, away from the main dining area, which WOULD have been the nicer area had they sat us there. Our table was in a corner where a connecting door was located. This door is what the servers used to get room to room, and i'll tell you this right now, it was annoying. This is a fine dining steak house, and I felt like I was at outback steakhouse. We were greeted by the server's helper who poured us water. We eventually were greeted by our server who welcomed us and acknowledged that she saw we were attending the show that evening reassuring that everything will go nice and smooth. We ordered our drinks, old fashioned & bottle of rose. She brought the old fashioned and let us know she was waiting for the manager to bring down the wine. This took some time. We quickly ordered our food, my mom got the Chilean seabass and we got the porterhouse for 2 that comes with mashed potatoes and asparagus. It took FOREVER for our food to arrive. We felt forgotten. I saw others get items...and what confirmed this long wait were the multiple times our server came and said "your food should be out let me check on it again". This was SUCH a bad look. I was embarrassed at that point for choosing this restaurant to take my mom to. When food FINALLY arrived it was 7:15pm. Thats right. We sat there for an hour and 15min. My boyfriend said many times, let's get up and leave. I knew everywhere was booked...so I kept everyone there like an idiot. The food? Ours was great. We loved it. My moms fish? Tasted SO fishy. I couldn't understand how it was cooked so well but also tasted fishy. I felt so bad for her, and she doesnt like medium rare steak, so we couldn't even share ours. After that, we quickly asked for the check. $400 for a disappointment of dinner. By the time we left our table it was 7:45pm. I sat my mom at a machine and speedwalked from the casino to the parking structure to level 2..put everything in my car and sped back. We arrived at the theater for the show after 8pm. My heart was racing... I was exhausted...and very upset that this restaurant caused this. Would I ever dine here again? I truly do not know. Oir steak was good...but if that is how they treat their guests when knowing from prior knowledge, that it was a special night for a person in their party...I dont think I can throw money in their direction again. I guess...visit this place for steak BUT do not count on service. read more

Came here for my anniversary dinner. The restaurant definitely had an upscale vibe to it. The ambiance and service was A1. Drinks were on point too. They're known for their Old Fashioned; which is one of my favorite drinks. As far as the food-it was definitely high on my list of steakhouses. They really season their meet to the bone. I didn't too much care for the Mac and cheese. It had Gorgonzola in it, which drastically ruins the taste. read more

If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind dining experience, The Great Oak Steakhouse at Pechanga is truly unforgettable. Recommended by some of my previous colleagues, I now completely understand why this place has such an incredible reputation. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance sets the tone -- elegant décor, perfectly curated music, and a warm, upscale atmosphere that makes the evening feel special from start to finish. The service is impeccable: attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. Now, the food -- absolutely phenomenal. We had the highest quality Wagyu, aged for 30 days in snow (yes, actual snow!). The flavor profile is extraordinary, and the steak is so tender it melts like butter in your mouth. Every bite is an explosion of richness and perfection. The Alaskan King Crab legs were equally fantastic -- fresh, succulent, and prepared flawlessly. From the appetizers to the handcrafted cocktails and decadent desserts, every course exceeded expectations. This is a MUST if you are visiting Temecula or heading to Pechanga Casino. Even if it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, it's absolutely worth it. An unforgettable evening of world-class dining. read more

First time customer to this steakhouse. Gotta give an appreciation for the place, its vibes, decorations, the set up, but most importantly, THEIR FOOD. Cooked to perfection with no complaints. Our severs, Joe and Jennifer made it an even better experience. They were soo sweet, wonderful, kind n accommodating to us from beginning to end. Jennifer even threw in a few more little hot sauce bottles. Only planned for the steak only but ended with the seafood tower as well. Totally worth it. N the drive from LA. read more

5 stars !! If you ever come to this location, definitely ask for Rika as your waitress. She was genuinely the warmest waitress we've ever experienced. My boyfriend and I came here to celebrate our anniversary, and she brought out the most beautiful dessert with "Happy Anniversary" on it. If you're looking for a romantic and warm feel to a restaurant, we highly recommend. The atmosphere and decor made it feel so cozy, and the service from everyone we interacted with was some of the best we experienced. Definitely an elegant hidden gem inside of the casino! We ordered the bread basket, mashed potatoes, filet mignon, and the lobster tail, and it was all amazing. Could not recommend this restaurant more for a nice dinner celebration or romantic evening! read more

My hubby loves to take me here for my Birthday and Anniversary. I love ordering the Tomahawk Steak and side dishes... TOMAHAWK: 9/10 Love the steak. It usually comes slightly undercooked so we like to order it Medium Plus or Medium Well. You'll usually see a red center but, that's probably how they roll around here... DIVER SCALLOPS: 10/10 My star of the show! The sauce is highly addictive and the scallops are cooked perfectly. The portions are also generous so it's big enough to share for 2-4 people... BREAD BASKET: 7/10 The old one tasted better because it had the little cheese bread. Please bring those back! They are the reason we always order the bread basket!!!! SERVICE: A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Excellent 5 star service. Everyone is always moving and working hard. I have no complaints. We will be back!!! Rock On GREAT OAK STEAKHOUSE!! read more

We decided to do something different for Thanksgiving this year and celebrate at Pechanga. During our visit, we tried a few restaurants with the plan of this one being the main restaurant for our Thanksgiving dinner and we were not pleased with the experience at all. When we first arrived, the restaurant was gorgeous with a bar area to the right and the main dining area to the left. There was a big fire place that set the mood and wine bottles displayed on the walls nicely decorated from the ceiling to the ground in certain sections of the room. Right away I thought the food was going to be fire and we chose the perfect place! The boys were dressed nice and my wife took forever to get ready but showed up in her beautiful outfit. Anyway, we ordered the food and the kids ordered Mac n cheese and my mom and I ordered the prefixed Thanksgiving traditional turkey dinner, which consisted of corn bread stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, giblet gravy, and cranberry sauce. My wife ordered the prime 10 oz filet with Brussels sprouts. Now this is where we had a few issues. #1 the kids didn't like the Mac n cheese and the menu was limited so they didn't want anything else. The server assistant who brought out the food saw the kids didn't like their food and asked if they wanted sliders and fries. We told her that would be amazing. Our waitress came out and took their plates knowing they didn't eat it and asked if they wanted something else. We told her the server assistant put in an order for sliders and fries and the waitress said she didn't even know they offered that. The sliders came and they were completely dry but the fries were good. The kids just ate the fries. #2 my meal was ok but the cranberry sauce they put on the plate had an old thicker consistency than the fresh cranberry sauce they brought in a cup for the table. I was a little weirded out by that and the cornbread stuffing wasn't good. The turkey was delicious. #3 two things here! They asked if we wanted bread for the table but didn't mention it would be $9 dollars (I'm ok with that) but my wife asked for some steak sauce for her steak and they brought her two sauces. They charged $4 for the peppercorn sauce and $6 for the G.O. Sauce! We definitely aren't cheap but at least let a brotha know lol. We could have packed the sauces up and took them to the room for later. The steak was good though, I'm not going to lie. #4 lastly, we ordered a pecan pumpkin pie and we got a nice decorated piece of chocolate candy in the shape of a pumpkin with cream in the inside sitting on top of a small piece of bread. We were told this was the pecan pumpkin pie. There was no pie and no pecans but I think the filling was suppose to be the pumpkin. We all took a small bite and didn't want anymore. Overall, this was not the place to come for Thanksgiving but I'm pretty sure their regular menu is pretty good. Just be prepared for the little charges and know that nothing is free in there except the water (I think). We definitely won't be going back there and I wouldn't recommend, sorry.

Had dinner here for my father in law's 80th birthday, it was very good! This is a pretty restaurant with comfy seating, a big bar, and nice bathrooms. All the people who attended to our table were nice and helpful. About half of the steaks on the menu are MP. My husband inquired about the smallest cut on the "Snow Aged" Wagyu MP portion of the menu and it was $260 for 6 oz! He passed on that. To start we ordered a bread basket for the table, I had a truffle roll and it was nice. Husband had Indian fry bread and we both liked it. Husband also ordered two of their Kentucky In Fashioned drinks, the 2nd one they smoked for him, brought out a massive cloche filled with so much smoke! It smelled like a campfire, he really liked the smoked version. I am not sure what the corkage fee was, but somebody in our party brought 2 bottles of wine that they opened for us. I also ordered one glass of Cab from their menu and it was great. For dinner we split the Lobster Bisque to start, it was really good. A velvety, rich, broth, large chunks of lobster, super tasty. I could eat a huge bowl of that! We each had Ribeyes, medium rare. His was the 20 oz bone in Prime, and mine was the 14 oz bone in 21 Day Aged Prime. Honestly our steaks were the same size, and his was more tender than mine, although they both tasted amazing. I had truffle butter added to mine and I loved it. Sides shared with the table were mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, and broccolini. I really liked all of them, but there sides were TINY compared to other steakhouses I have been to. At the end they only boxed up the leftover steaks and took away the leftover sides, didn't ask if anybody wanted them. They brought out a white chocolate covered cheesecake with a raspberry sauce for my FIL, he liked it. I didn't care for the white chocolate, but that's just not a flavor I like. I didn't see the bill, but it's typical steakhouse pricing, so it was at least $150 a person. I liked this place, but wouldn't go out of my way to drive here again for dinner. If I happened to be in Temecula, it would be an option I am open to. It's very quiet in there, you would have no idea the casino is right outside the doors. read more

The food is scrumptious absolutely delicious. I had a Japanese steak. It was the best steak I've ever had. It was flavorful and tender. My husband had the Salmon once again it was outstanding. We also had bread, baked potato for two, grilled asparagus, sauté mushrooms all for two. I also had the very best latte I've ever had. My husband had a Manhattan. We had dessert to go. I had a butter cake and my husband had a fruit dessert. The service is impeccable. Servers were filling up my glass of water when it was only half full. The server was who waited on us was amazing. He was attentive to our requests and kind. The ambiance is amazing. Beautiful restaurant. It is expensive but well worth it if you want to celebrate a birthday, anniversary this is the place to celebrate. read more

My wife and I came here for our 19th wedding anniversary. This is a fine dining experience with a dress code. We were seated on time and greeted with water and a bread basket from the appetizer menu. We then chose a Shrimp Cocktail and a wedge salad. The addition of cracked pepper to the wedge salad was a nice addition. Plus, the bacon on the wedge salad was so delicious. We then switched to our main course, which was a 21-day aged New York steak (delicious) and Diver Scallops (unbelieveably good), paired with asparagus and mushrooms as a side. Everything was excellent. Service from Maria was amazing. At the end of the dinner, Maria presented my wife and I with an excellent dessert, on which the chefs had written "Happy Anniversary" in beautiful cursive on the plate. This place is inside the Pechanga Casino. We came for the food and experience, and I would highly recommend this place for any type of celebratory dinner. This steakhouse also offered the Wagyu Experience, but we chose not to partake. It was market pricing, and on Saturday (04/11/26), the market price was $300 for 2 people. read more

Wow! This place was outstanding! Housed in the Pechanga Casino. This place is a rather large restaurant with plenty of seating. Modern decor with a great cocktail and wine list. SERVICE: Everyone here was great. We had a good size party, but they got us seated quickly and our server was very friendly and attentive. FOOD: As you can tell from the pictures, we ordered a few things. Everything was great, but some of our favorites were the pork belly, the scallops, and the New York Strip. Also the desserts were Fab!! They have a good selection of cocktails and wine. My old (in) fashioned was superb. You don't have to like casinos to eat here and the place has done a nice job of keeping it smoke free. I am definitely coming back. read more

Classy and elegant. First class service. This would rival any steakhouse in Vegas. We shared the NY strip and asked them to slice it up with some truffle butter.

The Great Oak Steakhouse is the most upscale restaurant at Pechanga Resort Casino. We have eaten here several times, and always had a great experience with the food and drinks, as well as service. On this particular visit, we just stopped by the lounge to have a drink towards the end of the evening. The lounge is a good size and seating options include tables, booths, and at the bar. We sat at the bar, and enjoyed watching drinks being made and chatting with the bartender periodically. I had the El Draque Noir cocktail (Ron Zacapa No 23 rum, mint, blackberries, demerara, lime, $16). It had a nice brightness, and was surprisingly complex for a single alcohol cocktail. It had a nice light berry flavor, and even though mint was a garnish, I tasted mint on the finish, so maybe there was a little mint syrup or crushed mint in it. I was a little confused because I definitely got a little fizz on the drink which didn't match up with the description. When I asked the bartender, he said there was indeed a little soda water float on top. She had the Temeku Mai Tai cocktail (Bacardi superior white rum, dry orange curaçao, Myer's dark rum, Passoã , orgeat, lime, $16). This is their little tweak of a classic Mai Tai and it was great. The Passoã liqueur added a light passion fruit note, and the foam dollop on top was a nice touch. Both cocktails were excellent and a steal at only $16 in this relatively expensive steakhouse. We didn't leave until about 10:30pm, way past closing time on a weeknight. The bar was still lively, and staff members were hanging out enjoying the evening as well. Our bartender was great, and all staff were very friendly. We enjoy visiting Pechanga periodically, and will definitely return to The Great Oak Steakhouse for drinks and/or dinner. read more

We didn't have a reservation but they were able to seat us in an hour or so. It was nice to wait because we could walk around the casino and get a drink while we waited. There are shops too. The public restrooms are well maintained and large. The steak was delicious and their homemade steak sauce was a nice touch. All their sides are great too. Our server was very attentive even though she had a larger party to also serve. They kept our water glass full. They gave a nice birthday dessert to my husband which was very impressive! At the end with the bill they give you some delicious chocolate treats. So good! read more

Always my to go dining place when there is an event going on at Pechanga casino. The waiters are always friendly and very attentive. Food is always delicious and at its best. Our favorites are the lamb chops, fresh green garden salads, sea bass and their premium steaks. Their seafood is superb but be careful and make sure you as for the market price before ordering because it can be a little steep. If you are celebrating a birthday, mention it because they have an awesome dessert that you can't order on the menu. It is only for birthday peeps. read more

Wonderful service and dishes! We didn't have a reservation so we sat at the bar and were served there. Very lively with live piano music and people enjoying their food and drinks. We sat at the end where the counter is lower and had a great view of the hospitable and hard working bar attendants. Ordered the Pork Chop and Diver Scallops with a Baked Potato.

Birthday dinner for my bride during a weekend stay at South Coast Winery (check out that review too). Excellent greeters, welcomed us and wished my bride a happy birthday (nice to know they really ready the reservations and care enough to act on it, that means something in today's world). Lawrence was our waiter and he was fabulous. We started with drinks and the old fashions were amazing. Appetizers followed and we were not disappointed with the watermelon strawberry salad. Dinner was a bone in rib eye 21 day aged with a lobster for good measure. My bride had the scallops and we ordered the Brussels sprouts and mashed potatoes. The meal was perfect. Dessert was a happy birthday raspberry sauce cheese cake and coconut ice cream. This was a perfect evening! read more

Came in without a reservation on New Years and got sat within 10 minutes which was impressive being how busy it was. The hostess was super kind and so was Jason our server. They had beautiful Piano music live on one side of the restaurant and it was more quiet on the other side. Jason knew all of the menu extremely well which was amazing for my dietary restrictions. We ordered 12 oz New York Bone in and the Roasted Chicken with snow peas and carrots. To go with the steak a Baked potato on the side. When I say this food is heavenly and cooked perfectly and recommend the New York at medium. You cannot miss out if you're in the area it's a delicious place no matter where you're from. If you love salad the Caesar is so refreshing too! Come and taste delicious bites at The Great Oak Steakhouse! read more

I'll admit my last feast at this steakhouse was in the old location and let tell you this is not just a geographical move it's a complete overhaul of their menu as well. In the past I felt it was overpriced for their offerings and my main gripe was the steaks were over charred and you tasted more char than the rest of the steak. That's gone The new menu is simple and spectacular as well as the cocktails are also very well thought out without the usual cut and paste job of a cocktail menu. Salads were really creative and perfectly balanced (although I wish there was an option to add anchovies to a Caesar). Gone are the charred burnt steaks and now cooked to perfection . I've had the prime bone in ribeye which is my go to benchmark and it had a nice crust and perfected basted in a hint of rosemary butter finish is my guess. They are clearly now the best steakhouse around and it was topped off with first class service. Well done read more

Everything about Great Oak is extraordinary. Impeccable service, upscale decor, phenomenal food, and exquisite drinks definitely warrant a 5 star rating. We didn't have reservations but were lucky enough to find walk-in seating at the bar. Anthony was our bartender/server. He crafted a robust espresso martini for me and a perfectly balanced Smokin' Aces cocktail for my husband. For dinner, he recommended the snow aged wagyu, and it was exceptional - buttery, perfectly seasoned, and so tender. We also ordered a bread basket, which was mixed with a variety of rolls and long dinner crackers. I recommend ordering this as it pairs perfectly with the entrees. I received a complimentary dessert for my birthday- a delectable, deconstructed strawberry shortcake. It was heavenly, but their butter cake is next level. I definitely recommend saving room for that. Great Oak is on par with the finer steak houses. I am looking forward to our next visit very soon! read more

I was very pleasantly surprised by The Great Oak Steakhouse as it is located in Pechanga and I didn't have the highest expectation for a steakhouse located in a casino. When I entered, it felt very upscale (especially the bar area) and the service we received throughout the night was great. We ended up bringing a bottle and their corkage was very reasonable at $30. My friend and I both ordered the filet mignon and it was cooked to perfection. Their drinks were also so good that we ended up coming back the next night for a little night cap at their bar. read more

Casinos and Steakhouses go together like Casinos and Sushi Restaurants... they all seem to have one and this one was pretty great! We were at a conference and 4 of us walked in and were seated right away... our lucky night! Service was amazing with a highly attentive and friendly waiter. Why do you come to a steakhouse? For a great steak! And I ordered the filet and it was trimmed properly, had a great shape with none of that bifurcated stringy BS you get at "other" steakhouses. This was just 8oz of perfectly cooked flavorful steak exactly as you'd want it. Kudos to the Chef! One disappointment was the Lobster Mac n Cheese. To be nice I'll say it was "Environmentally Friendly" as there wasn't much lobster in it. However, everything else was so great, I can't deduct anything for that. The other sides (I think we had creamed spinach and broccolini) were delicious! I'm usually not a huge fan but I sucked these down with ease. Cocktails were great but this might be a place to get a good wine with your steak! I mean, you are in one of CA's wine countries. Prices are pretty fare for the quality as we dropped just over a Benjamin per person before tip, and that was entree's, sides and cocktails (no appetizers this time). If I found myself staying at the Pechanga Casino again, I'd definitely return here! Well Done! (Not the steak, the experience) read more

Celebrated a birthday here last night and boy were we hungry. 2 hour wait so we did some gaming and relaxing listening to some live music . The violinist at the small bar next to the restaurant was excellent and the highlight of the evening. Ordered the bone in ribeye, baked potato, Mac and cheese and Caesar salad. Normally I order my steaks medium well but decided to go medium on this one and told the waiter to please make it a good medium. Steak came out rare and mediocre tasting at best. I haven't had a steak this bland in a long time, total let down. Ate half and it wasn't even worth eating anymore. The sides were also just ok except of the Caesar salad which was great. Only remember Mexican beer as an option which was also blehhh. $200 for the food down the drain and will never go back. Worst steak I had in many years. read more

The servers were attentive and always kept drinks refreshed the steak was excellent for two and came with asparagus and mashed potatoes. I wish they would allowed substitutions because the Brussels sprouts are the best side they have so you'll have to order those for an additional cost. The lamb chops were also delicious for an appetizer. Expensive night out but the service and food make it worth it. The celebration dessert is soooo good, I believe it is a strawberry cheesecake and I could have licked the plate. They also have really nice and clean restrooms. read more

Amazing food! Riika was the best waitress served us post our wedding celebration and made us feel so welcomed delicious dessert !!!

Came in tonight for a birthday celebration & we had a reservation for 5:30pm. The person from the restaurant had called me about two hours beforehand to confirm my reservation, and at that time I had told her we had six people and a child so we needed a highchair or booster chair. When we arrive to the restaurant, the person at the desk said that there was only six people in our party and no child so that was kind of annoying. We also waited about 20 minutes past our reservation time before we were seated. The inside is very nice and upscale. And it was also nice that the restaurant didn't smell like cigarettes because it's in a casino. The service was nice once we got seated, and placing the order was easy. We also did receive a gift from the chef which was nice it tasted pretty good, It was a crab fritter in a spoon. We placed our orders and our appetizers came out, the crab fritters were OK. In my opinion but the lamb chops were absolutely delicious. If you love lamb, you will love this appetizer! Absolutely by far my favorite. I got the New York strip A4 and it was very good. The pepper on it, the sear on it, It was absolutely delicious a must try. The side dishes are very good too. I got the macaroni and cheese and the mashed potatoes and I believe each dish serves two people. So you get a lot of food for the money. At the end, we were given a dark chocolate passionfruit marble dessert. And it looked very pretty, and it tasted pretty good. We enjoyed getting the random free gifts from the cooks. Overall, this place is amazing. I would truly give it 4 1/2 stars but we can't do half stars. And that's only because of the discrepancy for my reservation and about 20 minutes after my actual reservation time that we actually were seated. Other than that, the experience was pleasant . I do highly recommend this restaurant and I believe I will be back sometime soon. read more

Always a great decision. Food tastes better when it's comped! Am I right? Perfect for any celebration and occasion. Service is excellent and provided with a smile. Steak is comparable to any high end spots but without the snoozy crowd. The ambiance is relaxed and the decor is traditional, reminds me of a Vegas Steakhouse without the drive. Be sure to tip well. read more
