    Spring Sangria
    Canary H.

    We came to the Veranda Restaurant for Easter Sunday! My mother-in-law had booked this restaurant months in advance in order to have a meal with a lovely view out in the veranda. She wanted us to have a nice family meal with pictures. Upon pulling up with our car, there was a noticeable three rows of parking for the cars. After parking our car, we walked up to what looks like a fancy house. Not only is this fancy place a restaurant, it was a venue as well. Before going inside to be seated, we noticed a lovely couple being walked around the venue, too, to check out what they had to offer. When we were seated, we had a lot of time to look at the menu. We chose our drinks and the waitress came out with them very quickly. We also ordered an appetizer (beignets) that came with raspberry sauce and whipped cream. It was very crunchy and well fried. Their mimosas are very strong and their spring sangria is delectable! For food, my fiancé ordered a hamburger with a side salad. For myself, I ordered a dip sandwich with au jus sauce. Needless to say, our portions were huge! The price definitely matched the portion sizes. After our meal, we realized that we were there until the restaurant closed, which is fairly early. We were able to end our meal and enjoy the garden as well. Shout out to our server, Bethany, for doing a fantastic job. You've made our meal very enjoyable!

    Lovely place. Whenever I can get a reservation around lunch time I try and book this place. It's so beautiful to have lunch here and walk around the gardens. Already made reservations for next month!

    Fried mushrooms with a chipotle sauce!

    Three of my friends and I spent an early afternoon at the Veranda Restaurant celebrating my friend's birthday! The atmosphere was heavenly, the food delicious and the service top notch!

    Married under that gazebo 20yrs ago, visited for brunch this weekend.

    Veranda didn't exist when my wife and I got married at Grand Tradition back in 2004. Decided to enjoy a brunch at Veranda on the weekend of our 20th wedding anniversary and it did not disappoint. Obviously, the scenery was fantastic. Sitting on the back porch of the main facility, looking over the heart shaped lake and gazebo where we said our vows 20yrs ago. Good was also great. My wife ordered the French toast, crispy yet soft bread with a creamy marscapone and blueberries. I ordered the burger even though it was only 10a. The homemade chips were delicious and the bbq sauce and bacon combo on the burger was the perfect of salty and sweet. Staff was friendly and professional, fast and responsive. Never felt pressure to hurry and they allowed us to enjoy our food and our walk down memory lane. Weather was perfect, staff was great (thanks Karina!), food was delicious and was priced very well! Highly recommend!

    I used to work here before they had this restaurant, and so of course I had to come back and try their food out and boy was I amazed and blown away!! It was all so good I was only able to get a picture of the dessert But everything was delicious! The dessert was the captain crunch bread pudding with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and captain crunch crumbs on top! It wasn't too sweet, and was full of flavor! Idk if they still have it, but I hope they do! The service was amazing' so attentive and friendly. It's mostly like a tea house vibe, fancy/casual. It's a gorgeous view from the balcony overlooking the heart lake. Definitely recommend it!

    Another great brunch at the Veranda at the Grand Tradition. We love this place! It really is a special treat. The manicured ground, friendly and attentive wait staff, and always delicious food. This place has the best of everything, and always amazes us at the end how reasonable the check is! We look forward to our next visit!

    Let me start off by saying, the setting and backdrop of this restaurant is nothing short of spectacular. Such a great place to take pictures and enjoy a serene walk around the pond. The staff was very friendly, even though we walked in and didn't have a reservation. Nor were we dressed for the occasion. I love that they give you a little starter plate of fresh fruit and veggies - it was so nice! We came for birthday dessert, and was not disappointed! Ordered the lemon berry mascarpone cake, and the flourless chocolate torte and wow... absolutely delicious. I couldn't decide which one I enjoyed more. The flourless chocolate cake was perfectly chocolate-y, and the lemon cake was super moist, the right amount of lemon-y, and not too sweet. We didn't order any other food items, but based on the tables around the burger and salads looked pretty tasty! If you're in the area, I would definitely check this place out!

    My friends and I came here in a Thursday around 11am and were thoroughly impressed. The grounds here are just lovely! The food was great and all 5 of us are eager to come back. Service was wonderful and prompt. The ambiance on the patio with the view of the lake was perfect. Would definitely recommend dining here!

    Accidentally found this place while looking for brunch restaurant, it was a good find! We got lucky to get reservation for a Sunday brunch. Food is good, the whipped mascarpone is amazing. Service is excellent! The view is amazing! It doesn't feel like you're in Fallbrook .

    Love The Veranda restaurant!! We had our wedding rehearsal brunch here and everything was amazing! The food really good and they were very accommodating with the time and number of people attending. Such a pretty view as well!

    This hidden gem in Fallbrook is our current favorite breakfast/brunch spot! We live in nearby Temecula and take the short trip to Fallbrook whenever we can. The food is very reasonably priced, and the beignets are a must! Of course, you can't talk about The Veranda without mentioning the 18 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens. There is large lake, 7 gorgeous waterfalls, and flowers everywhere! So after you enjoy your meal, you can burn off a few of those calories by taking a stroll throughout the garden. The only downside? Tables are limited, so reservations are absolutely required. For popular times like Saturday morning at 11:00 am, you have to book weeks in advance!
