Best Lunch Restaurants in Murrieta

We’ve dined at the Temecula Bluewater Grill a couple times and several times at the Santa Barbara location and it’s always a sublime experience. Comfortable and handsome decor and ambiance with the finest in seafood entrees as well as the most rich and creamy clam chowder and soft, warm sourdough bread. All the dishes are prepared with care and creativity with incredible taste and presentation. Service from all staff is top notch and never fails. One of our favorite places.

As we walked in we could tell this restaurant was going to be amazing! The food was fantastic, tons of great specials, we enjoyed the tuna tartare and antipasto platter which I highly recommend. A few of us enjoyed the halibut, chicken parm, lasagna, eggplant, and more…all so good!

We have been dining here for 10 years. It’s always our go to place when visiting Temecula wine country. Pietro….chef/owner always makes an appearance to say hi. Everyone there is always friendly and food is exceptional!! We have never had a bad meal. Everything is super yummy and you can tell it’s all homemade pastas. Nothing frozen!

Second time at this location. First time just wife and I, This time with whole family. Another consistent, solid experience. From the moment we walked in the hostess to the Bartender to our server. Extremely friendly, professional and apparent that people really care. Excellent value also dollar for dollar. Staffing ratios are excellent especially in this day when most places are short handed or have reduced staff. We will be back.

Fantastic food, great atmosphere! Wonderful way to kick off the Holidays.
