Best Californian Restaurants in Murrieta

All the food was delicious but the sides are big and good for sharing so we were kind of disappointed that they told us to all get a main and a side when we could have split 2-3 different sides and literally share them amongst 6 people. Very friendly staff and the ricotta dish was especially good.

For over a dozen years, it has been our tradition to dine at Beachcombers on January 1st and to linger to watch the first New Year's sunset! Beachcombers never disappoints with an awesome lunch and a killer dessert! The noise level can be high ("Energetic?") but the setting and service more than compensates. April, our server yesterday, was totally hospitable.

Dinner at Ponte was a lovely experience! We had a seat right next to a heater. There was ambient acoustic guitar music. The mussels, salmon and halibut were delicious. Our server was amazing! Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Cody was a friendly hospitable server. Burger, bbq chicken flat pizza and chicken sandwich were all superb. Garlic truffle fries were delicious. Views of the areas were amazing. What else can you ask for?

If you're looking for a comforting mini getaway dining experience, The Cork kitchen is a must. Scenery overlooking beautiful stream and vineyards along with abundance of maple trees make the overall experience soothing and relaxing. The overall menu is delicately managed as it is subtle in variety. The ambiance is great, it's rather delicate noise levels make the dining experience comforting but loud enough to feel at ease. Make a visit and enjoy. Totally worth it.
