“This place is absolutely delicious! My wife I recently moved to Yucaipa and the Haus Bistro is about 3 minutes down the street from us. We had a spontaneous date night and walked in around 6pm on Saturday and the place wasnt busy at all. The beers they have here are totally unique and great tasting too. They also have a sugar spice rim that goes great with the Golden Monkey Ale and the Chai Cider Ale. We started with with Mac Balls and Portobello Fries, which could be a meal in itself, and I had the Cattlemen burger which was so juicy and flavorful and the wife had the smoothered chicken special with cheesy polenta. Everything was perfect and packed full of flavor. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Very chill vibe and great music. Highly recommend the Haus Bistro for a nice and chill date night or family dinner.“

“Rumor's has it all fantastic bartenders, awesome live music Saturday nights, great drink prices, and all the patrons and staff treat you like family. Rumor's is a hidden gem in Calimesa, Ca.“

“We just came from having breakfast at the Kafe Royale. We have been coming here for many years. Everything was ok but we had the most nasty waitress. From when we were seated, she had the worst attitude. Very lazy stout woman, very flippant. I never post reviews, but, I was so upset. Maybe management will go through the reviews. Although she was not wearing a name tag. She was a large heavyset woman with her hair in a bun, her station was on the left side as soon as you walk in. My husband and I both have trouble walking and use canes. We have always given the waitress our bill to bring up for payment. This time after giving her our bill as she returned to the register she said loud enough for us to hear" Well you always have the option to pay your bill yourself" I felt so embarrassed . I did however, tell her I thought that was very rude.“

Such talented young people♥️ I've been to Ireland 5 times and these talented musicians and singers were better than anything I've heard on the emerald isle ☘

Parking: Gravel parking“

“This place was amazing. I stopped by for dinner and a drink. I ordered some wings, with the house favorite sauce. And a guava margarita here are some pictures, because I don't think I can even put it into words just how awesome this restaurant looks and feels. It's extremely hot in Redlands California so they provide outside sitting guests with misting fans“

“Very nice place, good food and service 😊“

Everything was delicious! Great flavor and food quality and decent prices! The service was fantastic, quick and friendly. I loved the fact that we could see the walk-in fridge from the counter and it had glass doors so you can see the beautiful and clean food prep. Everything looked clean and well organized. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be coming back!“

“First time going to Uncorked on State. Found them on the AAA magazine where great restaurants are featured and reviewed. Best place ever. Had a party of 7 and they were able to accommodate us. What a beautiful, cozy little place. The atmosphere were magical. The wait staff are amazing and on top of all your needs. Food is fantastic. Wine excellent. Our party enjoyed it all. Just the kind of place we live. Excited to come again and highly recommend Uncorked on State. Amazing, 4 stars.“

“Fantastic food and service“

“The bacon was too crispy, and I like it a little on the crispy side. I think the gravy was not fresh made but canned, and the biscuit was more like a dinner roll. And they were not generous we with coffee. I had to ask for a second cup even though she had walked by me twice.“

“Good food, good atmosphere Friendly staff“

“Great service and hospitality , I love this place and Richard is always an amazing host to me and my friends“

“First time here. Absolutely great, from the bar to the dinning table. I ordered an Old Fashion that was to the nines perfect. Once at the table the nines continued. Kevin was a great from start to finish. The prime rib was fantastic. Highly recommend this place from top to bottom.“

“Great little place to unwind“

“Enjoyed the breakfast crepes with home style potatoes. They have a pretty good menu, I'd like to try some more...
Service is good atmosphere was relaxing and staff was professional.
I'll be going back for seconds.“

“My husband and I went here for lunch last week. We ordered 2 sandwiches: both tri tip. However, the waitress misunderstood our order. She told the cook: One tri tip and one pulled pork, so I corrected her and said, "we wanted 2 tri tip sandwiches.." About 5 min later, she served us 1 tri tip and 1 pulled pork sandwich.. So..
I sent the pulled pork sandwich back. Eventually, we both had tri trip which was very good.
AS for the "atmosphere": This is a very old restaurant and the wood tables are "sticky"... need to be refinished... I recommend take out if you come here..
This is a dive restaurant with very good BBQ food.“

“Good food with great service“

“Zach was our waiter and he was great! He was kind and treated us like royalty! He was so busy but kept a professional attitude! He is a hard worker and was back and forth and they were short staffed but he kept his great demeanor. I would recommend him as a great waiter to anyone. I think it’s sad that they don’t have enough staff and then leave it in the staff to hold up the business“

“A friend brought me here because the Italian place next door was closed. I don't typically go to sports bars so I'll give the atmosphere five stars because I think it matches what a sports bar should be. Service was excellent. Food was just okay and kind of expensive. Iced tea was terrible and they bring you a cup of water with a new straw in it every time. What a waste. More straws means more sea turtle deaths because they mistakenly eat them and die. A lot of plastic ends up in the ocean. It's also kind of weird that they card you just to eat at the place. As someone with young kids, I definitely won't be back.
I'm sure the demographic this place is meant to attract (male sports aficionados between the ages of 45 and 75) will enjoy this place, it just wasn't for me.“

“The food was good. The service was great. I actually dropped a 20, didn't even realize it. The lady that was servicing us found me as I was leaving the place to give it back very honest. I ended up giving most of it back to her as a tip. I highly recommend this place.“

“The food is absolutely delicious. Definitely worth it.“

“Gabe is the man. Fun open mic 🤘🙂“

“Dickeys Barbecue Pit Restaurant located in Yucaipa California is a great place to get your favorite smoked chicken,beef,pork,ribs and more! They smoke their meats on premises and the portions are very generous! We had the brisket sandwich with onions,pickles all on a fresh steamy bun! Super fresh and tasty! The serve yourself soft serve ice cream really finished a great barbeque meal!“

“The food here is good, depending on what you order. I had the steak sandwich which was average at best but my wife order the Italian sandwich that was big and full of flavor. Service was a little slow but the place was packed so hopefully that’s the only reason. Parking lot is small so if it’s busy you end up driving around looking for parking on the street.“

“Muy buen servicio y muy rica la comida.“

“Great! Amazing place. Recommend“

“So gooood and fresh! Try the chicken finger meal with their special sauce, if you like lightly breaded tenders you will not be disappointed. The dining room is very clean and aesthetically inviting. Be prepared to wait because they are very popular.“

“Had the best time here last night enjoying live music! Our server was Lauren and she was simply outstanding! There was a gentleman too that served our larger group and they raved about him and their food as well. I didn’t get any food pics though.🤦🏾‍♀️ We had a large party at a few tables and she never missed a beat! 🥰 Patient and friendly the entire night. I had the impossible burger and it was perfect! The waffle fries were seasoned so well. I enjoyed a bottle of red wine with my meal, but I can’t wait to go back and experience the craft cocktails and brunch! Definitely a new favorite spot! ❤️🥂“

“Sat at the bar to enjoy the great selection of Whiskey. Truffle burger was cooked perfectly. Skylar made an excellent whiskey sour; she is a great bartender. The prices on whiskey pours are excellent. I'll be back my next trip to Redlands“

“very nice! food and service was great!“

“The waitress was awesome. The bourbon chicken & shrimp platter just had seasoning and no bourbon sauce. The chicken was moist, and the shrimp small and a little over cooked. The green beans were perfectly cooked, fresh, and well seasoned.“
