Restaurants in Lake Elsinore

“Our family had a wonderful experience dining here. The wait staff was super kind and attentive, the food was delicious and good portion size for the price. They also gave a complimentary appetizer and dessert which was amazing. We don’t live in Lake Elsinore but if we did this would definitely become a regular place for us.”

“great food and great entertainment”

“The food is superb! The owner always greets you when you walk in! The staff is friendly! The music is great! Can't forget my favorite bartender, Marty!”

“Love oharas! Rex and Angelina do an amazing job! Friday night karaoke is the the perfect way to start the weekend and the food and drinks are 🔥”

“Outdoor pool concerts were fun, too hot, no fans anywhere, “free water” would have been nice. Give the bands some fans🤪 but you do have really good servers and the bands are the best! We will be back!”

“It is the best seafood . It make feeling like I am back home.”

“I really wanted to like this place, because the food was really good. A girlfriend of mine and my 9 year old son visited here on Tuesday around 4pm. We walked in, we're immediately greeted and sat in a comfy booth, noticing the very unique artwork and decor. Pros: The Cadillac Margaritas on the rocks were very good. Ordered to start the guacamole and chips, was very tasty. We shared the Main Lobster Puerto Nuevo Style, the cook level was on point, and the seasonings were delicious. Now we were told it's 2 lbs of meat, which was definitely not the case. The cost for how much meat, I would say, is not worth the price at $95 an order. My son had grilled chicken tacos that he said were good. And we all appreciated the little churro ice cream dessert I received for a special birthday surprise. Cons: On a 1-10 level of volume, the music was at a 9, for 4pm on a Tuesday, it felt like they were trying to turn the place into a dayclub. Just seemed unnecessary to have it that loud. We could barely hear each other across the table. After sitting a while listening to the music, I would absolutely never bring my son back here. A couple of songs passed as we sat, where every other word was N$gg@#, F@$k, or other explicit words. Some may not agree, but I'm only 38 and find that highly inappropriate for a restaurant. Now, if that's the ambiance you want to have in your restaurant, no argument, however, then make it a 18 and up place or post something stating children may not be the best audience for your restaurant. We even made a comment to our waiter, and he just smiled and said, "Ya, there's a lot of songs like that we play!" and walked off. Our service was definitely less than stellar with him, let me tell you. As we walked in, we stated it was our first time. Anytime we asked a question, before we could finish our question, we were cut off and met with a very dismissive, hasty response as he would be walking away as well. It felt as if we were offending him or he just had more important things to do. Their menu is very confusing, as we were trying to figure out the taco pricing (since it was Taco Tuesday). The service from our waiter, I would say, was a 1 of 10. He was not friendly (even though he smiled) his demeanor was uninviting and sometimes condescending. In the end, thankfully, we had another young lady who was taking care of us. She was very sweet and pleasant as we commented on our concerns she stated she would let the manager know. In understanding, it's not her fault, we would've told our waiter. However, he disappeared after we received our food. All in all, this place has good food, but it is not good enough for us to spend almost $200 for horrible and condescending service.”

“Great craft beer list. Staff is very friendly. prompt. Highly recommend”

“Beautiful presentations and super delicious dishes such as awesome sushi combination plates, a huge sushi salad with more fish varieties than veggies 🥗 🍣 🍱 and a special birthday surprise which is my new favorite birthday cake with mouth watering green apple covered with caramels and chocolate and nuts all sliced up into thin pieces forming a caterpillar 🐛 topped with whipped cream and cherries 🍒 !”

“Excellent service great food”

“Great food and fabulous atmosphere, highly recommended”

“Atmosphere, friendly, enthusiastic management, staff and good taste to book premier Oc Rock Power Trio, Surfside Circus for Saturday night May 7 22”

“Came in last night to get juice it up with my friend. Our bowls were so good. The customer service was great and the lady I believe her name was Bella was so nice when taking my order. After ordering she got started on our bowls right away. Overall a fast and great experience.”

“the food it's really food and the service it's great”

“Great local gastro-pub feel!”

“I ate at Golden Corral Lake Elsinore and my server Marlene she was the greatest she was very attentive to all my needs she was on everything very fast and very courteous to all the other tables as well we were talking amongst each other of how pleased and blessed we were to have her as our server thank you we will be back soon”

“Samara was our waitress and she was amazing! The food has gotten so much better since they have changed the menu! I love it.”

“Wow!
First time here...
Chicken Teriyaki was awesome and HUGE serving...enough leftovers for another meal
The Avacado smoothie was BOMB!!!
Definitely will go back”

“Best burger ever! coming from Montana! great service”

“So good! Very kind of the staff to allow us to come in a few mins after closing. I definitely recommend the horchata flavor. It’s vanilla, cinnamon goodness.”

“In February I ordered a cake for my daughters 1st birthday, it was so good. I got bombarded with guest waiting to get a slice. It was also the first time I had no left over cake. Since then I think we have ordered 6 more cakes. Every time we have an occasion or a get together we order a cake from here. We’ve tried so many flavors, white chocolate raspberry, Neapolitan, carrot cake, mocha, white cake. Everything has been good and we always get the cheesecake layer! He is always open to trying whatever decoration I want to do as well. Highly recommend! You will never throw away cake left overs again.”

“There coffee is the best I love going to bloom There employees are always so nice”

“Great customer service !! 😊😊”

“Compas tacos is the best place in town Their food ia delicious and the stuff is super friendly.”

“Honestly everything. They have something for everyone, if there something that your not sure about they will help you pick something or accommodate what your looking for. As long as it’s attainable in the kitchen 😊”

“Eduardo was awesome. When we first sat down I talked to him about how nowadays most people don't even want to communicate with their customers and he was so friendly and helpful. Our waitress was great too I just don't know her name. Store was very clean food was great. I had the poplano omelet. We will be back and we will recommend your store to others.”

“This is nice quiet place with great food and excellent service ! Recommend”

“Honestly super yummy ! Support small business !!!!”

“This is My favorite panadería🤤”

“Great food! Great drinks!!”

“We live in Corona and, for years, enjoyed the original Hunny's Cafe on the corner of 6th and Main Sts. It closed a long time back, and reopened across Main Street in the former Grinders building. The staff, service and food choices remained varied and extensive. This location closed a couple years ago, leaving the Hunny's out in Temescal Canyon and the Elsinore store open. The Hunny's out in the canyon closed over a year ago, but we still make the drive from Corona to Lake Elsinore to visit our all-time Hunny's waitress, Debbie. This store is nice, too, and has some extended hours on weekends. The food is all good, and any 'issues' with any order or food is handled quickly, politely, and professionally. I don't mind the drive over and back, at all. We can easily recommend that you try Hunny's if you have never been there.”

“never had a bad meal extremely friendly staff.”

“Nice friendly restaurant. The service and food was excellent. A lot of TV to watch sporting events. We will definitely come back.”

“Love this coffeehouse for the beautiful space, the friendly staff, and tasty coffee. This is a wonderful space to grab a cup and a bite to eat, chat with friends, read a great book, or just chill. I've been telling everyone about this place.”

“Can't wait to go back! What's not to love? Vero is clean with a spacious variety of seating arrangements for everyone from romantic snuggles to watching the game. Service is prompt and friendly. The menu is varied and huge; and the food: fresh and delish; great prices, too. Yep, I'm definitely going back!”

“The staff is always very friendly, and a great selection of items on the steam table and others that can be ordered as needed and they have a great house made hot mustard upon request. Also you get a lot for your money. I enjoy eating here several times a month.”

“Delicious food amazing service, thanks Juaquin and Pepe and Giselle.”

“exquisito sabor natural, sus nieves y paletas son realmente deliciosas”

“One of the best Mexican restaurants in Lake Elsinore, Jose makes you feel at home. you won't go wrong by coming..al venir Aqui siento que estoy en casa de familia. highly recommended authentic Mexican food.”

“My family and friends love Douglas burger it is our go to place when friends and out of town family members come to visit we also have fiends with street rods we used it once a month for our cruise nights. They have a very nice variety of foods and generous portions one order Is usually enough for two people I have lived here 33 years it seems like it has always been here I highly recommend them”

“My family and I have been coming here for almost a year. It’s always a pleasant experience every time we come. The kids love their cookies and cream with boba, their Melon tea, honey black tea with strawberry popping boba, their Nutella dessert egg puff and the Hawaiian shaved ice with all the toppings. The environment is always clean, peaceful and friendly. They have televisions there to keep the kids occupied while waiting patiently for our drinks and food every time. The staff always interacts with the kids which I think is nice and keeps it friendly. We are regulars and recommend this place to all our friends and family. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Finally stopped by to give it a try...I had the Bocadillo veggie sandwich...I'm not a vegetarian, but this was so amazing and full of flavor....great prices as well...can't wait to go again!”

“I brought a group of 15 people for dinner and the amazing crew in the truck off Fillmore and Hancock took all the orders and filled them in 30 minutes! It was so fast and so good! I know several people, myself included, will be back for more! Gracias!!”

“nice little spot located in Lake Elsinore. I love their fish and chips. The fish always comes to the table piping hot and the breading is light but crispy. The fish is very tender and flaky. If you little breakfast their biscuits and gravy are very good. and don't forget to try the coffee cake”

“Have been going to Guadalajara's for years I think it's one of the best Mexican restaurants in Lake Elsinore although I pretty much only had maybe three things on the menu I love to get the Macho burrito I can eat on it for days it is so big the food is authentic”

“Wow this place is good. Friendly staff and a beautiful seating area. Don't confuse this place with the one down the street. I made that mistake. I don't know why they have the same name on the same street 2 blocks apart. Trust me they are not where near the same. The one in town is gross 😝 and the people working there suck. Definitely don't go there come to this place way better all the way around. This place is situated in a nice little park. With a well maintained dining area. Lots of shade and all food that we got was super good.
Unfortunately I mixed the 2 up and my friends kept telling me to try it.It was really good and I kept telling them they were crazy until today when I finally figured out there's 2 of them, and I got to finally try what everybody was talking about.And how much better everything here is. Highly recommended.”

“One year later and I’m still coming here for my drinks. My go to now since I drink coffee very often is the banana pudding latte with oatmilk

10/10
My hubby got the carrot cake latte and equally as delicious!
Fast service and so good! Love the drive thru option”

“The food was so good, fast service, very clean, it’s also very affordable. Jenny took my order, she asked me about my day and everything. Service was amazing. My favorite waiters are Jenny, Lesly, and Jonathan, would come again!”

“Great food here. Probably one of the most overlooked places in the area. Stop by enjoy some great food and tell them Santa sent you. Been going here for over 5 years now and i have never been disappointed”

“Tacos Elsinore has been a staple in Lake Elsinore for a very long time, and it’s easy to see why. It’s solid, reliable Mexican fast food that covers all your favorites , quick, tasty, and affordable. They also run daily deals, which makes it even better if you’re trying to grab something good without spending much.
My only gripe is the salsas. They’re not the best and definitely not spicy, and the complimentary carrots fall into the same category , not terrible, just not doing much. But honestly, for fast Mexican food at this price point, it’s not a dealbreaker.
Stop in for the deal of the day and enjoy some great, fast Mexican food.”

“Juan's Rotisserie Chicken is one of best chickens, but the customer service is bad. I ask for 2 burritos with fres meat the guy that makes it gave an attitude like if I was asking to give it to me for free. I end up paying for a whole chicken for fresh meat burritos”

“We love Tuesdays! It’s Robyns bread day! It’s amazing!”

“I don't go to any type of fast food.The only thing close is a typical california taco shop. I had some friends tell me they went here and the fried chicken was way too good. Not to tell me about it. For the next time I drove through , I made it a point to stop and at least try it. I gotta say the friend chicken was really good. It's still a fast food restaurant and the rest of the stuff on the menu is just okay at best well the things that we tried i'm not going to speak for the things we did not. I would definitely have another piece of chicken.”

“This place is the best tacos I’ve had in Southern California. Small hole in the wall but the best tacos. Their al pastor was marinated perfectly. Their Micheladas absolutely delicious. We don’t live in the area anymore but whenever we roll by this place we try to stop. Staff is super friendly. This is how tacos should be made!!! Salsa is ? ?”

“Good fish tacos at a reasonable price. The atmosphere got a 4-star rating only because it gets very crowded at peak hours and homeless people lurk in the parking lot. But that's not within the restaurant's control. And the crowd is a good sign that people love the food. So good get some good fish tacos NOW!”

“Great business for the community or even if driving down the 15. It’s worth a stop in to get wonderful service and amazing Pizza and Wings and so much more! Thanks for being awesome 🌹🌹🌹Rosieday”

“Delicious! Little bummed the mint n chip shake wasn't a cream type of base but more like flavored ice. Donuts are not a typical donut, they are very wet but still taste yummy. You can tell everything is a protein style because of the texture. But they still taste really good. Wish they had Keto friendly items, I would be there all the time.”

“Big menu, good breakfast and sandwich rd”

“Love this local sushi place! My fav is their Lemon Tree Roll (basically a Philadelphia roll with salmon on the outside with a lemon wedge on top.😋🍣🥢”

“Our company has partnered with Soho Taco for multiple events, and we have consistently had positive experiences. Their service is exemplary, communication is clear and efficient, and the quality of the food is outstanding. Additionally, the staff is friendly and professional, making collaboration a pleasure. We highly recommend Soho Taco as a vendor for your events, and we encourage you to try their tacos, which are a standout option.”

“excelente antención.felicitacioanes al cheff”

“friendly, good customer service”

“Great place and service. Major upgrade with the menus and cashiers. Place has turned around. You won't be disappointed. Carne asada burritos are my favorite.”

“Fun place for music, networking events, fun atmospfere”

“Used to eat here weekly for lunch when I worked as an Amazon driver. Prices are very good for the amount of good food. I put a 4 star for atmosphere because even though you can eat inside and it's perfectly fine, it is a little run down. Definitely more of a take-out spot.”

“The food is good but....I ordered a large menudo to go when I opened it at home there was no spoon and there was more juice than menudo I mean there was VERY little menudo in the cup to the point that you actually had to look for it with your spoon. I've had their tortas and they were good. Haven't tried their burritos or tacos yet. So I'm giving them”

“We "discovered " them after they moved to their new location. Honestly, we will never buy meat from the grocery store again. Absolutely phenomenal!”

“What a great pizza spot! Large 3 topping cost me $19, pitcher of beer cost me $15. Pizza was EXCELLENT! they keep the parmesean shakers in the fridge (cold and fresh) and the pepper shaker on the table. Amazing service from the owner himself. Go next door and get a haircut from his wife, she owns the salon next door :) Can't wait to come back and enjoy another delicious pie!”

“Fair price, just would of liked to have a bit more of my delicious tostiloco! I ordered a regular chip of tostiloco with out the pig skin and substituted for mango. It was so yummy! Price 8.49”

“Found this place on google and it lived up to its name. I got the shrimp burrito with cabbage, crispy cheese, Chipotle sauce and pico on the side. It was delicious!
Wifey got the potato taco and carne asada and was pleased as well. Definitely stop by if you're in the lake elsinore area.”

“If you are looking for healthy drinks this is your stop they have protein shakes as well as healthy energy drinks and lots more options he also has protein donuts and crepes the location is very clean and has The best atmosphere the owner is literally the best and very ”

“This one is for their newer location in Menifee CA. Painful wait, no heads or tails. Even the assigned number they issue has zero sense, as numbers called jump up and down. Let’s say one consumer is issue the number #350 at time of arrival. Numbers called while waiting for the lucky number varied as they are called: 169! 422! 269! etc. Heavy wait waiting for the lucky number: 45 minutes, and in my lucky case 55 minutes. Wether ordering online or in person, there will be people who arrived much later yet they get their food faster. A crew of about 12 lemmings, I mean staff appearing busy but the pace is painfully slow. What can one do but wait. Perhaps Taco Tuesday was a little more challenging. Food ordered: Carne Asada Tacos, Carnitas, Chicken, and Shrimp at $2.89 each. Favorable aspects: Presentation, well served amount wise, nice place, order was accurate, salsas not too shabby (red, green, and the viciously hot ? orange). Not so favorable: all meats for some reason seemed to taste the same, except for the shrimp. Greasy to a certain degree. To repeat the long and almost agonizing wait I would have to drink several cold beers which would make a safe return somewhat hazardous ⚠️ so I pass. For the number of personnel on duty, it should move faster. Perhaps they secretly believe it is worth the wait, but in our case it was not spectacular by a wide margin. Almost $30 for a 3.5 Stars at best.”

“Clean, good service and friendly 😇”

“Hands down one of the greatest restaurants in Lake Elsinore. The food and service was awesome. My mom and dad had their reception there. Not only was the staff nice. They helped us with everyone and everything. They took good care of my parents, and our friends and family. And let me tell you there was a lot of people. Everyone at Emilio’s was family to us at the end of the night! They even partied with us! 🥳 Thank you so much for everything. One more thing the food was delicious!!!!!!! We had beans, enchiladas, flautus, rice and guacamole. I wanted more round of the flautus!”

“This Company is delicious! I have enjoyed everything I have tried, best of all it’s healthy and guilt free. Definitely try the pizza and the chocolate croissants 🥐”

“Great outside seating area to enjoy the food and watch the World Series!”

“excellent Bakery, friendly and hospitable and great pastries!”

“This is my favorite catls jr. They always have quick service the food is delicious and the place is nice and clean. The staff rocks!!! Shout out to the red head i think her name is Grace....shes always so friendly! Thank you for always giving an awesome experience!!!”

“Spent $49 and food was great. We got Pad See Ew with combo meats, Chow Mein with chicken and Shrimp fried rice. Only issue is if charging extra for the meats please don't be stingy with it.”

“The food is always good at this location. You can ask for the chicken to be well done, juicy or in between. Personnel are always pleasant and friendly. The restaurant can get busy, specially at the drive thru at peek hours. Dine in is OK, place is clean but it's just a basic dinner. You eat and you leave, nothing different than other Pollo Loco restaurants. Don't forget to ask for your senior or military discount. Same for first responders. They don't mind you asking.”

“It is amazing place!! The people are so nice and welcoming!! I love it and love Ashley !! Encouraging and wants you to succeed on your journey!! The classes are so much fun and the shakes and waffles are amazing!!”

“Absolutely love it. Food trucks right out the door, friendly staff 100/10. The band's were also just perfect. So excited to return. Hoping we can bring more punk out here <3”

“Muy limpio y muy amables todas las despachadores y siempre hay novedades”

“I ordered and paid online in advance in order to take advantage of the $7 off coupon. I was very disappointed that they didn't honour my coupon because I took a screenshot of it instead of downloading the app. When you are spending $100 on a ham, they should have given me the $7 off 😡”

“Stopped by Ringside Bar & Grill and it’s definitely a solid spot to grab drinks and hang out with friends. The vibe is chill, the music is good, and it’s an easy place to just kick back.

The bartenders are always on point—friendly, quick, and they know what they’re doing. That alone keeps the experience consistent every time.

I went on Taco Tuesday—tacos were a little small, and while they weren’t bad, they weren’t anything crazy either. Food overall is decent, but the drinks and atmosphere are really what stand out here.

I’ll definitely be back and would recommend it if you haven’t checked it out yet. 👍”

“Got a large extra chili and extra cheese fries. Super delicious! If you don't ask for extra chili or cheese, you really don't get very much. My husband got a regular size and his looked pretty sad, very little cheese and chili. Associate helping us at drive thru provided great customer service. The drive thru line wasn't pack, so we got our food fast.”

“Just went to get 3 scoops of ice cream and our worker was absolutely amazing with 10/10 customer service! Her name was Alyssa she was so kind best recommendations and helped us while closing. Positive attitude, will definitely come again! Yummy!!
I wish I could’ve given her a better tip but it exceeded the maximum amount. Will definitely bring cash next time for a larger tip!”

“Don't really agree with the politics but they make good bowls for a good price and the girls that work the counter are always nice. We do the build your own.”

“I've dined in and had food delivered.

Excellent service and food.

Nice people and delivery drivers!

Thank you!”

“Everything ! Service ! Menue ! Prices! 😜😊😘”

“I went with my friend. She has a true gluten allergy. She ordered her sandwich and told them about her health issue. They took her health concern to ❤️ HEART. They cleaned the slicer, yhe prep area and more to ensure she was healthy. No attitude, no deep breath of aggravation like some places just genuine concern for her. Not to leave out of the conversation...the sandwich are great. Great quality for the price! Oh, did I mention..I live close so you are a great asset to my convenience. Thank you.”

“I had been craving a reeses milkshake for a while. I saw they had Reeses ice cream and had to have that shake i had been craving and they satisfied that craving!”

“Johnathan, who worked drive-thru yesterday, has such an awesome spirit. His cheery voice put me in a happy mood. ❤️”

“Delicious food!!! ❤ I'll be back for more!!!”

“Great food for an after ride recharge.”

“Thank you for the gracious thought of us over at Canyon Lake Middle School. The free pizza you sent to Precinct 12048 and 12055 at Canyon Lake Middle School was greatly appreciated!!! You Rock Papa John's ����”

“Miguel’s Jr in my home town is a winner! Beautiful new location; same great taste 😋! Miguelitos is a staple for Inland Empire and now SoCal residents who want a delicious meal without the long wait of a sit down restaurant. Plus the Red Sauce is boss! Cada dia! 🙌”

“I went through the drive through with a friend for a fried breakfast, expecting the mid-teir chicken and soggy fries like every other experience at a Raising Canes. But what I wasn't expecting was for the best chicken meal I have ever had in my life. The chicken was soft and juicy, with a crisp crunchy breading that just fell apart in your mouth. The main show is the fries tho, they are hot, as fresh as it can get, the hot fry was soft yet crisp. It was the world's most perfect French fry. The toast was soft and buttery, also very fresh. I will definitely be returning to California, not for the beaches or sunsets. Only for this particular Raising Canes location.”

“I came across this gem one afternoon as I was heading back home. I was greeted by the cashier named Yvonne and she recommended me the Hawaiian BBQ mix. It came with rice, macaroni salad, BBQ chicken, BBQ beef, and short ribs! The portion is massive (I usually eat a lot and I almost couldn't finish it).

Once I am done with the food, the chef named Mr. Ho asked if I find the taste good. I just showed him the empty plate that I devoured.

There are a variety of drinks ( I definitely recommend the Hawaiian Sun selections that sits on the counter. Any flavor is fine because it can't go wrong with the brand.

I will definitely be back for more food.

Parking: A lot of spot since it shares a building with Lowe's and other major food franchise like Starbucks.

Kid-friendliness: There are gumballs, sticker, and other kid toy machine to entertain them.”

“Drove through Starbucks with our 8 month old pup, Beau, and he was treated to a whipped cream pup cup! Who knew Starbucks did this!?! Beau enjoy his treat as much as my husband and I enjoy ours...ok he may have enjoyed his more 🥤❤️🐾🥤❤️🐾 Thank you, Starbucks, for an unexpected cup of happiness. I most certainly recommend Starbucks for the human experience as well as a great fur baby experience! Much appreciated, Mindy”

“Great service, awesome yogurt! The owner thanked my husband for his service as a Navy SEAL in Vietnam—by comping our yogurt and not allowing us to pay. ❤️🇺🇸⚓️💙”

“The Super Breakfast Burrito 🌯 is my favorite! It is enormous, delicious and the fresh salsa bar is extensive... The fresh carrots are flavorful and spicy, I especially love the fresh salsa with cilantro! Thank you for providing a delicious quality breakfast to me, (my favorite) and being there for the entire community throughout this COVID-19 pandemic insanity! The staff is very friendly and helpful, thank you!”

“Everything is just excellent here.
Chicken tortilla soup my favorite when it cold out.
The double chicken avocado salad my weekly other favorite.”

“just had the best fish tacos, rice and beans, birria quesadilla, hot cheeto corn, and fries. DELICIOUS!! 5 stars from me. will be back soon!! 😋🙌🏼😃”

“Sucks they don’t have any outside dining but I guess they don’t want any bums around”

“I will never eat at a Corporate or Billionaire fast food joint as long as there an S S Burger Basket available. Double bacon Cheese Burger and Fries were the best. Reminds me of the burger we got in the late 70s. Charbroiled with fries and great portions. This is a must if you are hungry.”

“They have friendly service & the food is fine. My issue is their prices. I am an average sized woman who ordered a salad for myself and a combo for my minor child. The total was over $30 for 2 ppl. IMO that’s a price I pay for a restaurant with a waitress, not a drive thru. And a regular sized strawberry lemonade is almost $5. Across the street at In n Out a meal for one is around $7. You can use the leftover $ for gasoline. I feel bad for Mom’s who feed multiple kids these days.”

“Went through after a other Dutch bros had skipped over us in line and the serve was awesome apologized for how the other store treated us and compensated our drinks because she felt bad that we went through that situation with a other Dutch bros I highly recommend this store over the store in Murrieta on Clinton Keith Rd”
