“First time here tonight on 6/9/26! Our wonderful experience was made possible by our server, Ruby! She told us it was her first day as a server but we would have NEVER guessed that. She was extremely attentive, gave us fantastic recommendations and is the absolute sole reason we are going to come back. My girlfriend is in the food service industry and even she was impressed by Ruby’s attentiveness and it being her first shift as a server. Thank you Ruby for the wonderful experience!!! And the Hang-Loose burger was phenomenal!! Thanks for the recommendation!!“

“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.

“Stopped by Siggy’s on Temecula Parkway after visiting another nearby location that was already closed, and I’m glad I ended up here. This location was open, not overly busy, and had a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that made it easy to sit down and enjoy the meal.

The restaurant has a classic diner feel with comfortable booth seating, clean tile floors, framed wall décor, and a bright, well-kept dining area. Outside seating was also available with umbrella tables and colorful lighting that gives the place a cool evening vibe. The restrooms were clean and well maintained, which is always appreciated.

Food was solid. The double cheeseburger was fresh, hot, and generously sized with a good char-grilled flavor. The chili cheese fries were huge and definitely enough to share. Great portions, fair prices, and friendly overall environment. If you’re in Temecula and looking for a casual burger spot with late-night comfort food vibes, Siggy’s is worth the stop.“

“First time visiting and thoroughly impressed. Fairly large menu but limited kids meal options. Though limited my grandson thoroughly enjoyed the quest quesadilla meal. The garlic parmesan fries were excellent. I got the salmon bowl with rice and veggies and it was really good.“

“Edit: I said I’d never go back but they ended up sending us free entrees after the Valentines fiasco so we decided it would be crazy not to give it another try… and it was a night and day difference. The server was fantastic, super attentive and filling waters before they were empty. She was apologetic about Valentines and thanked us for coming back to give them another opportunity to make it right. The steaks were good, the sides were good, the truffle fries are to die for and I’m not even a big fry person. They have a good happy hour and a lot of their regular menu items look delicious. I’m impressed with their customer service and willingness to right a wrong. That means a lot to me and we will definitely be back! 👏

This is the worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant. They attempted to placate customers with free drinks, but all the free drinks in the world couldn’t make this restaurant tolerable. After more than 2.5 hours of waiting for our food, the scallops were inedible and the steak was overcooked. We sent the food back just to have it replaced with food that was even worse. I’ve never left a restaurant with my blood boiling before. We will never go back. This was the second time trying this restaurant. The first time we went was when they first opened and we had drinks and dessert and the dessert was hard, stale, and inedible. I figured it was because they had just opened and that they’d get better as they fine tuned their processes. They’ve only gotten worse. There were a lot of customers waiting over three hours for terrible food, as we heard the complaints. Ended up going to yard house after because we couldn’t eat the food at hendos and left hungry. The service and steak at yard house was fantastic in comparison.“

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

“🙂👍 Kimberly does a great job!“

“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 .“

“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“

“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“

“Outstanding Campfire Feast as always! Jumbo Shrimp were hugs and delicious! Prime Rib cooked to perfection! Ribs melted in your mouth, so tender and BBQ sauce was excellent, sweet, smokey and sooo good. Sides were great, especially the scalloped potatoes, grilled brussel sprouts; and salad and baked potato were great. And finally Cheesecake with Strawberry sauce for dessert! Outstanding means our server was the best ever. We had enough leftover for a whole other dinner! Amazing, well worth the price!“

“Great food and great service“

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

“A truly lovely afternoon. We brought our dog and sat on the patio overlooking a beautiful green lawn... the setting alone is worth the visit.

The staff was friendly and you never feel rushed, which is exactly right for a winery. We had the beyond burger, charcuterie board, vegetable bolognese with chicken, and truffle fries that were genuinely addictive.

Dog friendly, beautiful views, good food, and a great glass of rosé. If you are spending time in Temecula wine country put this one on your list.“

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

“Lauren should be GM. Pay-raise and Promotion for this exemplary Lady!!!

Lauren for The WIN!!!

On God, Corporate, if you don't at least give her a bonus for her incredible service (She absolutely made our whole night) I'm through being a patron of this fine establishment.

God's help.“

“Great food and great service.“

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

“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!“

“I love Irish pubs and this place was no exception. I meant to get pictures of the food but I was so hungry it was gone before I thought about it. Their prices were very reasonable. The food was full of flavor and tasted fresh. They gave you hearty portions for the price. Their drink menu didn't disappoint. With a great selection of cocktails to a solid shelf bar collection of unique and top shelf brands. A great place for a social night out. Not for those looking for a quiet meal.“

“Very cozy and Travis makes you feel welcome“

“The vibes are great we went during karaoke night and honestly everyone is having a great time.

It's definitely a lively spot and you have a great time with friends here, the service was decent and the only thing is the food is really just not as great as I would expect they don't have the juiciest ribs or anything but it's decent for a night out.“

“We had an amazing experience with Dave today! We’ve been members for about 7 years, and while we definitely miss some of the familiar faces from the past, Dave truly stood out. His knowledge of wine and level of service made it feel like he’s been part of Leoness for over a decade. He was professional, personable, and made our visit especially enjoyable.

Also, Ian during our last visit was awesome as well—consistent great service like that is why we keep coming back!“

“great response time and amazing customer service“

“Fantastic! I always enjoy a fun trip to Karl Strauss with friends. Enjoying great food and beer. Parking can be kind of hard at times, but that is because of the other restaurants located next door. Other than that, the customers all seem to enjoy the place and the service is great when they get to recognize you.“

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

“Lot of fun and great music..food is good they are a little short on help we had to wait probably 20 minutes for our wine. The food got there before the wine. they were pretty backed up and again that's probably because they don't have enough employees. I don't know if that's in their control because of the state of California making it hard for businesses these days to run efficiently“

“Great food and excellent service. Kudos to Stephanie who always greets us with a smile.“

“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.“

“Cave is truly a hidden gem and one of a kind restaurant. The setting is a very unique where tables are placed in between wine barrels for a private and intimate feel inside a modern tunnel cave with minimalistic decor one would think you’re in a Nordic country instead of California.

We had an a reservation for lunch on a Sunday afternoon and the host properly checked us in and we got seated after a very short wait.

Since it’s a Sunday they have a brunch menu in addition to their regular menu.

For starter we had the birria empanada which is nicely fried and comes with consommé (4/5).

The pork belly hash is decent but a bit underwhelming and somewhat lacking in flavor (3/5).

The duck leg confit is quite nicely done. It’s savory and tender with the slightly sweet red wine cherry sauce as a perfect companion along with the tasty mashed potato (5/5).

Overall I would rate 4/5 for the food but the unique dining experience inside the wine cave.“

“Great venue we meet here now for our referral group“

“We were there for a late lunch on a Sunday. We had our dog with us, so we ate outside. It was a very nice setting with a large covered patio and ceiling fans. We were comfortable even though it was 90 degrees. Unfortunately, the musical duo was so loud that we could hardly hear each other. The wait-staff was very friendly, and very, very inefficient! A couple in our group split a meal. They were almost finished eating when the extra plate arrived (after asking for it twice). Another in our group had to get up from our table and ask a server (who was clearing tables) to get the condiment that was asked for twice. Those are only two "highlights" of the lousy service. The upside is that we did not have to ask for water for the dog. It was brought out as soon as we sat down. If they could improve the service, we would go there frequently.“

“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.“

“Holy smok’d hog you have done it!!! We came in last night for the first time and it WILL NOT be the last!! Full rack of ribs, 2 pulled pork sandwiches, cornbread, potato salad, and mac & cheese was freakin’ amazing!!! The best I have ever eaten!!! I love your great service, sample to taste sauces, and super kind staff. You guys rock the BBQ like no one else ❤️“

“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!!!“

“Service great.. its a fairly new building. Chef had a little trouble with my wife's steak asked for medium well. Got blood at center of steak. Staff was quick to fix. My ribs were good. Just a little dry. But sauce fix that. We wanted outside dining but you had to be group of 4 or more.“

“Exceptional restaurant which is part of the hotel and not the winery We actually like this restaurant better then the one at the winery More intimate and less people We enjoy the unobstructed garden and vineyard views as well Exceptional service as well“
