Very nice restaurant with lots of scenic beauty. Bit noisy with how many tables were there but nothing out of the normal. Walked around the grounds afterwards, nice views and gardens.
This is our third time eating here. Never disappoints. Outdoor seating is very comfortable with ceiling fans. Service was friendly, food came out fast and everything was delicious. Including the wine
The music was relaxing. Our server Ashlee was outstanding, very attentive and friendly. The food was great. I had the day special Rib-eye steak which was perfectly cooked. Great time.
Food and service were excellent, also the wine tour was the best I've been on with Janelle
My husband and I had an unhurried and delicious lunch prior to picking up our wines. The wine country salad with salmon was light and refreshing and my husband's beef sandwich was more than enough. Service was attentive and friendly yet uninstrusive. We'll definitely return in the fall to sample more wines and for the grape stomp event.
Have been coming here for years. Always consistent, lovely setting, excellent food. Would like more NON-alcoholic drinks on the menu (even though it's wine country!).
Reservations are usually a must here on weekends. A lot of seafood options on the menu. The food is always great and fresh. Their wine selection is great. They have a liquor area a few yards away if you want a mixed drink. Service is always very good. Very attentive and friendly staff. Highly recommend the restaurant and the winery.
We had my bachelorette here and I can’t stop talking about how amazing everything was. The beauty of the restaurant with the gardens was amazing. Second our amazing server Jess was literally the best. I even spilled wine and she made sure we got taken care of. I can’t say enough good things about that woman. She made our whole experience. Having been to Temecula many times, I can’t believe I’ve never been here and will be coming back
We went to The Restaurant at Ponte for our 29th anniversary. We made reservation for lunch. We were seated right away. Our waitress, Cheyenne, was awesome from beginning to end. We ordered the steak and shrimp and the scallops entree. Both were excellent! Since it is part of the winery, we did see a lot of people with wine and the place looked really busy. We appreciated the waitress remembering that we came in for our anniversary and brought us anniversary ice cream and written on it was a “happy anniversary”. Overall it was an awesome experience being there for the first time!
Anniversary dinner. Not one mention. Horrible service. Every need was neglected by waitress. Food good. Atmosphere pretty though bugs (flees actually) got in food. Noisy. Others were neglected as well. Never checked by manager who was there.

We had an enjoyable outdoor dining experience at The Restaurant at Ponte. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. We had the crab cakes and wine country salad with grilled salmon. The Pinot Grigio was a perfect pairing for our lunch. It was a pleasant early afternoon with mild temperatures. Over the years The Restaurant at Ponte has never disappointed us.
Nice outdoor seating. Wednesday night so was pretty quiet. Service was good and quick. We started with the Calimarie, had a Ceasar salad, my wife had the braised short ribs with rice and I had the Seafood pasta. We had a red wine and white wine flight which allowed us to select three for each. Overall great meal and service.
Poor service ruined an otherwise lovely day. Two senior couples (wine club members) were literally ignored by our waiter. Probably the worst waiter we have ever experienced here. He was busy - which we understood, but even a brief eye contact would have acknowledged our presence and made waiting for his attention palatable - so to speak. A shame.
Beautiful for lunch at the winery. They're open later as well which is nice. I was able to make a quick reservation the day of. Great food and service. Lovely views.
The food was great and we had excellent service. Always our go to restaurant while in Temecula.
