The service and quality of food at The Farmhouse is always superb, and today was no different. My friend Kathy and I wanted a long leisurely time together for lunch and conversation, and Farmhouse's team provided just that in a lovely setting underneath warm heaters and surrounded by beautiful gardens. Whether you order the yummy mussels or Granny Smith apple salad (my favorites) or the burger and fries (my friend's favorite), you will enjoy every bite!

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.

Dave served us at the bar on New Year’s Day and he really went out of his way to make our visit perfect… and everything was amazing. The Mac & cheese, fried chicken sandwich and shrimp pasta were literally some of best food we’ve had for a long time. Flawless quality chicken, loved every bite… we will be back!

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.
