First timers to South Coast and drove from the SoCal Beach to Temecula Wine Country for the day. South Coast is a delight for lunch. We had a Mediterranean salad and Portobello steak panini. We tried two red wines, a cabernet and a petit sirah. Both were 2017 vintage. We are not wine conneisuier however enjoyed the meal and peaceful environment.
This is going off of the Thanksgiving Buffet. Overall the food was very lackluster. A lot of the food was cold and definitely not worth the price of 100dollars. The Mac n cheese was very dry. Not mention you had to pay for soda which was 6 dollars on top of that. Wine choices for the buffet were very limited especially being a winery , I was expecting more choices. Definitely not going again. I do not recommended having thanksgiving here , if you have no where else to be.
The setting, winery itself is very nice but the food was not. Especially since you’re paying for a Vegas buffet but there is not options w/ subpar food. There was no whip cream for the pumpkin pie….also their brownie was burnt and dry.
Food: 2/5
Setting: 4/5
Service: 5/5
Wine: 2/5
The food was standard nothing crazy, the drinks were quite good though. The negative was that our table had scratches and our pleather seat had a large gash exposing the stuffing inside. For dinner it seems they cover the poor tables in white linen but they don’t do that for lunch. The place was not well staffed when we went either and quite pricy even for Temecula standards. I would choose somewhere else to try.
Loved the stay here! Room was wonderful, large, had a fireplace, sitting room and balcony. View was peaceful and beautiful. Didn't like they wouldn't clean the room until night 3 tho. Covid is not an excuse anymore stop cutting corners. This winery also has a big gift shop if you're looking to get some cute items while in temecula.
