8 Best Cocktail Bars near Lake Elsinore

“Food was good and price not bad for what you get. I was pleasantly surprised to try the birria tacos and how much I enjoyed them since it is mainly a seafood spot. Consume was alright, definitely better at other spots around town. The best thing Ive tried from here is the fish chicharones, I would visit this place just for that alone.“

“Great food! Great drinks!!“

“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.“

“We are regulars here, first time sitting at the bar for dinner. Delicious food as always. Our bartender was AMAZING, she took our order served us delicious drinks (we had 3 each) made small talk w/us. She was so on top of her game despite being so busy behind the bar. We love this place and will continue to come back“

“We absolutely love love love coming here! We make the 30 minute drive about once a week and it never disappoints! The food is amazing, the staff is epic and one of the best parts about Finch is the bartender Brent! He’s like family and we go just to feel like home! We love this place and will tell everyone about it! Thank you Finch for being so cool inside, having amazing food and staff that feels like family!“

“LOVE Wine Ranch! My company held a client appreciation party recently and everything was wonderful. I became a wine clubs member, too. Food was great! Will do again for sure.“

“A fun little bar in a cool little town... The appearance is of the same old-timey western feel that the rest of 'Old-Town' Murrieta has.Inside is a typical little dive bar atmosphere, but it's clean and arranged well; it feels more spacious than it is when it isn't busy.Prices are fair, drinks are made well, bartenders are quick, and they are friendly too.It definitely has a community feel and the regulars seemed chil, respectful, and welcoming to ne½wcomers.³Lastly, the pool tables are in great shape.“

“Brunch: Soyrizo Hash Appetizer: Vegan Mac & Cheese Dinner: Linguine Arrabiatta A chic trendy full service restaurant, good for a sit-down meal. In addition to the natively vegan entrees, there’s a lunch burger with the option to sub impossible at no extra charge. (To veganize it ask them to omit the house sauce and cheese.)“
