TJ's Tap and Table at Tijeras Creek Golf Club New American • $$
29082 Tijeras Creek Road, Rancho Santa Margarita

“UPDATE: I have raised to 4 stars because the service has slowly improved over the last few months. Thank you for taking note of customer input and acting on it. As of now 11Aug22, solid service, good food. Taco Tuesday is great. I will continue my regular visits and hope to give 5 stars soon.Old: The last several times we have been to TJ's we have had no service. We are coming off the course hot and thirsty, we seat ourselves and no one comes by for 15-20 mins. No water, no welcome, nothing. If you can get served the food is solid. We have enjoyed breakfast here before and it was really good. When its 90 degrees and golfers are coming off a round on the course, offer them some water would ya? I HATE giving low reviews, but until this situation is fixed it will stay this way.Edit: The director of food and drink responded almost immediately so I raised my review by a star (From 2 to 3). I will go back sometime in the next couple weeks (Anonymously of course), if the problems have been resolved, I will edit this review further.“

“How have I never tried Philly’s best? I got an Instagram ad saying if I ordered the cooper classic and mentioned “Philly guy Bob” sent me, they’d throw fries in for free. What a deal, how could I pass it up? So happy I came in for the first time. When I walked in, the decor was awesome. You can tell the owner is from Philly based on the wallpaper and the newspapers hanging up, which I really thought was a great touch. Service was awesome, was greeted right when I came in. I ordered the cooper classic and fries. Wow. The cheesesteak was amazing. Loaded with meat and cheese. I added grilled onions which were great. The bread was soft and warm and delicious. Part of the magic of a Philly cheesesteak is that it has to be wrapped for at least a few minutes (in my opinion) so that the hot meat steams and melds everything together. The fries were awesome, crispy, perfectly seasoned, fluffy inside. My order took just a few minutes after ordering to be ready. With the open kitchen you can watch them make your cheesesteak as you wait. Will definitely come back again!“
