“A Hidden Gem in Temecula
If you're looking for a breakfast spot that hits all the right notes; flavor, hospitality, and charm; Mo’s Egg House is it. I ordered the steak and eggs, and let me tell you: mouthwatering doesn’t even begin to describe it. The steak was perfectly cooked, the eggs just the way I like them, and the whole plate felt like a hug from the kitchen.
Before your meal even arrives, they surprise you with a homemade sweet cake that’s so good, it could be dessert all on its own. It’s a small touch, but it sets the tone for the kind of care and warmth this place puts into everything.
Their menu is stacked with delicious options, and honestly, you can’t go wrong. Whether you're craving a hearty breakfast, a cozy brunch, or a satisfying lunch, Mo’s delivers every time.
And here’s the best part: you don’t have to trek into Old Town Temecula to find a great meal. Mo’s Egg House is proof that incredible food and friendly vibes are just around the corner. Whether you're a local or just passing through, I highly recommend stopping by. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Omg tea here is so good... Good customer service too ! Will visit everyday ^^“

“I probably should have ordered one of their 30 burgers because their chicken tortilla soup was good but not great. (Interesting presentation though, with the broth in a separate pot to pour over the dry ingredients.) We were here with a large group and service was great anyway, and separate tickets managed well.“

“good customer service they have the Angels baseball game on so my favorite“

“Loved the whole dining experience, PERFECT! 🎅“

“Date night with the wife. Delicious food and awesome service.“

“From 1st bite of lmy medium rare burger, to the plentiful salt encrusted sweet potato fries...perfection in a mouth watering way. The sauce for the fries were too salty, but the poppy seed dressing made up for it. The salad was tangy fresh strawberries and candied almonds....yummy and filling, like serious yum.“

“Great event location. Wonderful staff and beautiful decor.“

“Great service and food!!!“

“Great food and relaxing vibe!“

“I LOVE this winery. I especially love photographing weddings here! #lomonico approved🤌🏼 @lomonicophotography“

“We love Annie’s and eat there often. My 6 year old son just said his grandma is the best cook he knows… then he quickly changed it to “Well, second best, compared to Annie’s. Their gluten free pancakes are like biting into heaven” We appreciate all the gluten free options and love the atmosphere.“

“Staff was very nice, food is convenient but pricy; just wanted some chicken fingers for the kids. Ended up having a taco salad and was really surprised by the quality. Needs a remodel and some ownership investment. Just dull but I’d go back“

“Charming outdoor seating, great music and excellent Asian dinner salad yummy! Great service as well ,thank you Carol’s Restaurant ! ?“

“🙂👍 Kimberly does a great job!“

“Went to Black Angus on Veteran’s day for dinner. Even with the crowd our food came out quickly and our wattress Teresa was very pleasant and attentive. The manager also was busy helping wherever he could with a smile.

This was a wonderful experience to honor my husband for serving in the military. Thank you Black Angus for doing an outstanding job.“

“Friendly, welcoming atmosphere and staff - along with good of wines.“

“This is one of the best decisions I have made. I had been very sketchy about credit repair. I thought it was a big lie and always had bad impressions and said negative comments, but my doubt was cleared when my friend Jolene recommended Metronet Credit Solution. A team of experienced credit experts that are always on standby to help. I them about my predicament and they promised to help. Within 11days they removed all negative accounts and cleared every negative item from all three credit-reporting bureaus, (TransUnion, Experian and Equifax) and raised my credit score to 790’s from the initial 589 and also added some positive trade line. I’ve got my new car thanks to the team at metronet for helping me qualify for an auto loan. I highly recommend metronet for any credit related issues. You can reach them on +12055183032 .“

“We enjoyed a delicious dinner at Thornton Winery. We shared the Cafe Champagne salad, which we both loved. For our entrees, we chose the filet mignon and the braised short rib. Both were excellent. Service could have been a bit more attentive, but overall, we had a very positive experience, and we would definitely return.“

“First impression wasn't that great. The owner at my first perception was impatient with me as I entered the restaurant and sat in an open booth vice a table. I had my kid in tow and did not want to deal with the hustle of a large chain. I had to be somewhere and this was on my way. Never judge hastily. This was the best food brunch I've had and he was so kind to have his kitchen make a Mikey pancake for my kid. It was very kind and I'll be coming back frequently. Recommend recommend recommend“

“They are so nice! I loved going in and chatting with the owners. They made sure I knew what I was getting and offered me some samples to taste. Everything was so good it was hard to choose what to get! The place was very clean and inviting. The food is delicious and great portions. We ended up sharing everything so we could try it all. I would highly recommend checking out this place. Everything was fresh and made exactly how I asked for it. We will definitely be back!“

“Consistent quality, everything is delicious! Best Shrimp and Grits ever, as well as the Crab cakes Benedict. The Murrieta location is outstanding!“

“Yard house never fails to disappoint me! I like the Irvine, Riverside, Pasadena locations, the Temecula location is amazing as well! Unfortunately Temecula is packed with people during Christmas and NYs period, it's literally impossible to get a reservation during that time period.“

“I recently celebrated my birthday at The Vineyard Rose at South Coast Winery, and it was truly an unforgettable evening. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel incredibly welcome and special. The ambiance was cozy yet elegant—perfect for a celebration. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. I especially loved the pork chops, which were cooked to perfection. The drinks were equally impressive, and the birthday dessert was a delightful surprise! What really stood out was the service. My servers and the bartender were attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was just right throughout the evening. They even brought out a complimentary treat to help celebrate my birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend my special day. Thank you to the entire team for making it so memorable. I'll definitely be back—and recommending it to all my friends!“

“We will be back for sure! 😉“

“Everyone here was very friendly and welcoming. There is lots of seating inside and out. Place was clean and the beer was delicious. Will definitely be returning since they have a Hefeweizen and they are hard to find. They are dog friendly if you have a dog and want to come with them.“

“Fantastic food, service and music by Diego Mondragon.“

“Great Starters…Enjoyed the hot wings, pretzel dippers and the Cali flatbread. The Great provider is yummy. The ambience and our waiter Jake was great. Great time with my handsome Son“

“My Pesto and Sun Dried Tomato Sandwhich was soooo good. (I added avocado. Bread was fresh and delicious. Definitely ordering again.“

“Great food and great service.“

“It is a great place for traditional Irish food and fresh Guinness. We go in on Wednesday nights for the prime rib special. My sweetheart has the corned beef and cabbage. I have the end cut prime rib and it’s a delicious meal along with the Guinness.“

“What a lovely Easter brunch! Good variety of delicious foods, reasonably priced, excellent and friendly service. Go and experience it yourself!“

“Wont rate the wine due to subjective nature, but the meat & cheese board had a surprisingly wide variety of great meats, cheeses, and fruits!

Live music on a Saturday afternoon consisted of Diego... a solo violinist who was phenomenally good.

Staff are great and helpful.

The atmosphere was great as the patio seating was surrounded with grape-laden vines!

We opted for the horse-drawn carriage ride from the neighboring vinyard, which really made it a great day ( the weather was 84 at 12pm).“

“Denise is so amazing. She is a wonderful manager. She knows her stuff. I am so happy I found this place. Has great food. Good workers. Is one of the best breakfast in our area by far!!!“

“Delicious food I got the catfish plate with hush puppies and the fries were really crispy I recommend the single portion for the fish instead of the double fish I ended up getting full with one piece kids loved their food as well waiter was very attentive and helpful we ate inside since it was hot but there is out door sitting well be going back hopefully soon!“

“This was a lovely bistro type restaurant and the vegan options were spectacular. Doug was especially helpful and went out of his way to answer questions. The vegan burrito and almond butter pancakes. Top notch! Best burrito I’ve had in my recent memory.“

“Very cozy and Travis makes you feel welcome“

“We enjoyed a winery tour and cheese pairing yesterday with Evan, who made our experience a 10/10. He was knowledgeable, fun to be around, and gave a great tour! We also enjoyed lunch afterwards, and everything was delicious. Will definitely be back!“

“Great food and great service“

“This was the very first wine tour I've ever been on and went in blind for a birthday experience for my girlfriend. James, our tour guide was awesome. Read the group very well and saw that we weren't the types of people that get uncomfortable easy and cracked a lot of jokes. it was a great time and we did learn a lot. For a first experience this set the bar high. Also unknowingly i planned this trip at a great time (a Wednesday afternoon) and the group was only a total of 6 people so we each were able to get an amount of wine that made us feel the need to stay and eat something after. Overall a great experience that only had a single down side which was the seating was almost too private to where it was hard to wave down a server to get our check when we got food but they were still rather attentive.“

“We had such a nice experience last night. We arrived late and are staying at a different hotel that requires reservations for dinner. We found this place which was right next to our hotel/resort and it was the best. Great food and service was exceptional. They have a happy hour and they were very accomodating. It’s a stark difference to some of the other wineries which are not kid-friendly and a bit rude. I definitely recommend it for dinner if you are in Temecula and have a little one.“

“I'm a member here at the Alano club and I have to say that if your trying to get real recovery this is the place for you. Absolutely love this place and all the people who come here. The Noon AA meetings are fantastic and also the NA meetings as well. If your new to the area and looking for meetings this is the place for you.“

“great response time and amazing customer service“

“Denise is so amazing. She is a wonderful manager. She knows her stuff. I am so happy I found this place. Has great food. Good workers. Is one of the best breakfast in our area by far!!!“

“We were staying next to a neighboring winery, but after some unpleasant experiences with their restaurant staff, we decided to give Bouquet Restaurant & Bar at Ponte Vineyard Inn a try. It turned out to be the best decision we could have made.

From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, friendly, and efficient. Food was excellent, came out quickly, and the servers were consistently polite and attentive. We didn’t even need a reservation—just walked in and were seated right away.

The atmosphere is cozy yet elegant, making it perfect for breakfast or brunch. It’s also very family-friendly, which made our experience even better. This place truly knows how to make guests feel welcome, and it’s now our go-to spot in Temecula.“
