Amazing food and drinks! Cody was the best and made our day date so special. The Steak was cooked absolutely perfect and the Old Fashioneds were on point. Highly recommend! read more

Came here while visiting Temecula for a few days and the food was incredible! Steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned, service was friendly and attentive. Decor was fun, classy, and interesting; seemed like a nice, slightly elevated but accessible neighborhood spot. Would definitely go back again! read more

First time here, the ambiance was nice, our waiter was attentive and always checked in on us. We ordered the short rib and beef tenderloin. Both were so delicious, so much flavor and mashed potatoes were on point. The drinks were delicious too! Drinks were pricey at $17 for a cocktail. But a nice place for date night and to splurge a little. read more

The AGM Cody and bartender Nicolas were amazing today especially on a busy Friday night. The food was also amazing: bacon wrapped scallops, french fries and bone barrow. The aesthetics were also beautiful; my husband and I came here before when it was another establishment and Archive has done a great job taking over! read more

If I could give this place more than five stars, I would. Hands down one of my new favorite spots. From the moment you walk in, the restaurant is stunning. The decor is thoughtfully done with beautiful details that make the space feel warm and welcoming, yet still elegant and elevated. The book wall alone is worth the visit. It's such a unique art installation and adds a really personal, curated touch. We started with cocktails and oysters, and both were outstanding. The oysters were incredibly fresh and beautifully presented, making the perfect way to kick off the meal. Every course that followed somehow got even better. We ordered the beef filet, short ribs, Brussels sprouts, and a Caesar salad, and every single dish was a hit. The filet was unreal! So tender it practically melted with every bite and packed with flavor. Officially my new favorite steak spot. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the people. The staff was attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming, which made the entire experience even more memorable. It's clear the owners poured their heart into this restaurant, they've created something really special and a true new staple in Old Town. Absolutely fabulous, and I can't wait to go back. read more

Archive delivered on every level! Could not have been more impressed by the beautiful atmosphere, delightful staff, delicious food, and expertly crafted cocktails at Archive. Temecula truly needed a restaurant like this. Excited to see this new spot set the standard for elevated dining in our community! And the owners, they are the best!!! read more

Food is amazing, vibes are perfect, and especially Cody made our experience hella fun. Definitely a place to go to after a long day at work. And my furbaby enjoyed her time as well. We will be coming back again for sure! read more

It was our first time dining at Archive and some dishes we ordered were delicious while others were very disappointing. We started with the marrow appetizer and octopus and both were great. We ordered the short rib gnocchi, ribeye and brussel sprouts and all three were okay. The 16 ounce ribeye had at least 6 oz of inedible fat, the brussel sprouts were really greasy and the short rib dish didn't have much sauce and was cold. The service was fair (service was slow with refilling water and server didn't ask if we were celebrating anything, which we were) but the ambiance was nice. Overall we'll likely come back to give it another chance but will definitely not be ordering the ribeye again. read more

First time customers tonight (27Feb). Beautiful restaurant. Good food...but...Nothing really wowed us. Scallops were very salty. Yellowtail was overpriced. Wedge salad was just okay. 1909 down the street does it right. Great food and reasonable prices. Always packed as a result. I think we'll just put this restaurant... in the archives. (Pun intended) read more

I could eat appetizers alone here!!! The octopus and hamachi crudo blew our minds. We have ordered this at many a venue and this is top notch! Spectacular. And...Cody, awesome server! read more

Our server was, Jason, his service was good until we placed an order for 2 Salmon Pasta to go, and we sat there for 30 and he did not return until we mentioned to the person at the counter we were waiting for a to go order. He comes to the table and says oh, there was no more salmon, we were like oh, were you going to tell us. Oh, I'm sorry. Not good read more

If I could give ten stars I would! Been coming to Temecula for years. Have eaten at all the nice places out here but Archive has been, by far, our best dining experience in Temecula, to date. The food was fresh and delicious. The drinks were so good! The ambience was warm, inviting and so visually pleasing. The service was 10/10! Everyone was so kind and the owners even came out to say hi! Highly recommend this place and will definitely go back! read more

Ate here last night for the first time since it was Espadín, and me and all my friends thoroughly enjoyed everything. We sat outside initially and it got a bit cold so Kaelin who wasn't even our server welcomed us inside which we appreciated. I had the carpaccio , and a filet with asparagus and mashed potatoes and everything was executed perfectly. Also shout out to Jose for the great and kind service :) read more

This place is an epic fail! I mean this with all due respect, I've had some bad experiences, but this is the top of the list now. Our plates came out and were left the same untouched after a couple bites. I should've trusted the Google reviews on this initially even though I always like to try for myself. read more

Cody was the best! From start to finish the service, food, and ambiance was spot on, definitely a spot that needs some more love! Will be coming back! read more

Went here for the first time with my husband for dinner. Staff was friendly and attentive at the bar where we sat. Less than impressed with the food. And for the price, we probably won't be back. We had the shrimp cocktail, it was fine, we've had better. We also got the ribeye. I was Wierded out to begin with because it looked gray in color on the outside. Was undercooked but we decided not to send it back. About half the steak was pure fat. We like our steaks fatty but this was like nothing I'd ever seen. As far as taste.... I could only get through a few pieces. I don't know how to explain it but it just tasted off/strange. And I don't even know how they cooked it. No grill marks, no crust from a pan, was it boiled? I have no idea but it was the strangest steak experience I've had at a restaurant. For the price, we should have been impressed and we definitely were not. read more

When I tell you this was one of the best experiences I've had at a restaurant, I am not exaggerating. Cody was the best server I have actually ever had and I feel so blessed that he served us. Warm, personable, knowledgeable, conscientious are only a few words I would use to describe him. Amazing amazing amazing! I love this place! I can't wait to come back! The chef is out of this world! read more

Cody was amazing, 10/10 experience we had an amazing time he was so helpful and so nice we will definitely will be back!

Our first visit there and the food was Great, the service was also spot on and they make an awesome Old Fashion.

This was our first time to the archive. My husband and I celebrated my 60th birthday. The food was absolutely amazing. The service was awesome and the ambience was just as special. We can't wait to go back. read more

Archive has great food with a menu for all. I tried numerous items with friends. We decided to order many things and share. Everything was spot on. The drinks are top quality and creative. The new look of the space is awesome. The staff is always friendly and a joy to see. We will be regulars. read more

So I cannot speak to the food, but we had a reservation tonight for 5:30pm and showed up to a sign that said they are closed due to unforeseen circumstances. The restaurant had my partner's name and phone number, so they could have contacted him to let us know. read more

My wife, daughter and myself were greeted by a very nice young lady who seated us shortly after our arrival. Our server was incredible

Kiki and the manger Cody were the best! Such great service and I can't wait to be back.

Excellent service by Cody and Royce, delicious food, and the best mashed potatoes you'll ever have!

What a great lunch we had. Jose was just a pleasure and we met Jordan too. Very nice man. Highly recommend the waguy (sp) burger. The menu and the new motif are great. Give it a try read more

Visited Temecula from San Diego and our first stop was dinner. We drove by Archive as we looked for parking and decided to give it a try. Our experience left me very surprised as to why this place doesn't have more reviews with 5 stars! The food was delicious, portions were more than generous and presented beautifully. The staff was prompt, attentive and courteous, and our food was out in no time. We will definitely be back! read more

Horrible steaks, sides, and salads. Misery loves company as they say so give it a shot!

The food is first rate and the ambiance is fantastic. Great place to have a special family gathering, romantic dinner for 2 or just grab a craft cocktail and chill at the bar. Love this place and the new concept!! read more

This new restaurant really stuck the landing with everything! The food, service, and atmosphere was amazing! 10/10 will be going again!

First, our server, Cody, was exceptionally fabulous. Friendly and attentive. Secondly, the food was amazing and worthy of its price-point. On the constructive feedback side of this review...I would offer that the theme and menu are disjointed (most wouldn't notice or care). The cocktails were interesting and m, had they been better balanced, they would have been good (I give he drinks we ordered a "meh". Overall, would recommend. read more

This place is absolutely awesome! The service is impeccable. Thank you so much to Allie and Cody! The drinks were perfect and the food was amazing but we will be back just fo Allie and Cody! The decor is beautiful and they have a speakeasy aswell. Our new favorite place. read more

We've been so excited for this restaurant to open, and we weren't disappointed. Located in the heart of Old Town, it is the ideal spot for a romantic dinner or a fun night out with friends. Archive has a classy and sophisticated ambience. It's welcoming and warm from the moment you walk in. Just walking around and looking at the decorations is as much fun as enjoying the delicious drinks and food. Speaking of which, the salmon is so good, and my husband said the filet is the best he's ever tasted! Be sure to get the side of mashed potatoes, which are to die for. Archive is a true gem in Temecula! You will not be disappointed. read more

Great dining experience in an amazing ambiance. The octopus was perfectly prepared as was the Salmon dish. We also enjoyed the burger. The cocktails were made to perfection (gin and vodka ones were tried). Will definitely be back. read more
