I'm not sure how this place is a 4.8. I guess it needs more reviews. Stopped here for a late lunch. It's an "order at the counter" we will bring the food out kind of place. You have to get your wine, separately, at the tasting counter if you're going to have any. The menu has a decent selection of options for everyone. The food, however, is pretty average. The pizza's come on a pre-made frozen crust that's really not good at all. Come on people, pizza dough isn't that hard to make. The Margarita Pizza had about4 roasted tomatoes and 2 tsp of basil on it. The roasted tomatoes were tasty but there were hardly any of them on there. The parmesan fries were ok, the chicken gyro advertised as having "braised" chicken which I thought was strange but turns out it was grilled chicken after all. It was tasty enough but lacked enough sauce to be great. The side Caesar salad was just a small bowl of mostly wilted lettuce, cheap boxed croutons and a way too anchovy forward dressing. The view from the terrace is great and the chardonnay was good as well. Probably won't go back as Momma Rossa Trattoria is much better and just a short drive away.

Food was great. The steak used in the salad and steak sandwich was very tender. The hummus plate was great, though it could use more hummus. I'm knocking off a star only because this place doesn't serve beer. It's a winery, I know, I know. 🤪 I still think they should at least offer a couple of bottled beers for the beer lovers. 🍻

All in all, it's a nice place with great vistas and good food.

First time here and I enjoyed it with my love. The bartenders were very professional and knowledgeable about each wine. And they had such a beautiful view. And the restaurants food was delicious. They keep everything really clean and there’s always someone picking up everything. This is perfect for a date or a girls date or even just a group gathering.

Beautiful place to

We are wine club members at MDO since years. We always loved the atmosphere in the tasting room and at the terrace. Employees are outstanding. Wines and food also. Our favorite place in Temecula.
