Three years ago, this location used to be Rival Coffee then the Steak n Shake chain briefly took over and now it's the family-owned Cali Kabob...hopefully they NEVER leave!! Upon entering, we were greeted and headed to the counter to place our orders. I opted for the falafel plate which included- rice, salad, a piece pita bread, 5 huge falafels and your choice of hummus or fries, I chose French fries. After ordering/paying, we sat ourselves and our food was delivered to our table. Everything is made to order and so good! The pita bread was warm and pillowy, the falafels were perfectly seasoned, the salad was refreshing and their garlic spread was so creamy and powerful it stayed with you the rest of the day lol Yummy! Highly recommend if you're ever in the Temecula area or visiting Pechanga and looking for a good local place to grab a bite. *There is an ample amount of seating available inside as well as a couple tables out front. The interior is very spacious, minimal and clean :)

1st time here, after ordering noticed how filthy the bathroom floor was as I walked in and my shoes were sticking to the floor, it was apparent it had not been mopped in a REALLY long time. Have seen cleaner gas station restrooms. Came out and started looking into the kitchen and could see that too had not had a deep clean in a long time, if ever. Grease buildup on the walls, crud all over the floor under the grill and other hard to reach but visible places. While the dinning room appeared to be "clean" at first glance, it was also apparent it had been swept but not mopped in in who knows how long. Also, I tried to locate their Health Dept grade but it was not posted anywhere, as required. At least the kid at the register was pleasant.

Beef shawarma Plate with Baba Ghanoush
Cindy R.

Was here not too long ago for a meeting for one of the sports my daughter is involved in. Its located in the little strip mall area by Pechanga where it used to be the old Steak N Shake location. During my visit, I ordered their Beef Shawarma plate which includes a small salad, rice and the choice is either hummus, fries or Baba Ghanoush. We have never tried Baba Ghanoush so decided to check that out as a side. Service was great from the time of ordering all the way to the time of having it delivered to the tables were were at. The plate was a good size. The beef shwarma meat was flavorful with the seasonings the put on it and the rice was just as good. The salad had red onion, cucumbers and tomato which went well with the shwarma meal. I can say although the Baba Ghanoush wasn't really my cup of tea, at least I tried it and will next time to for the hummus. While we were there, my daughter ordered a peach milkshake and it was simply divine. It was nice, creamy and peachy. Just the right amount of sweet where it wasn't too sweet. The dining area is large with plenty of tables and even great for a big group. Everything was clean and well taken care of. We had a great experience and would not mind coming back esp since its conveniently nearby!

I saw an ad somewhere about this place and bookmarked it because I don't live in the area. I…read morefinally got the chance to try it and I wish they had more locations! This casual eatery serves fresh Asian-inspired healthy salads and rice bowls. They even have a Jr bowl for kids. The ambiance was comfortable and welcoming. It's the perfect spot to grab a healthy lunch with friends, colleagues, or even just a quick bite after a workout. This place would do so well next to a busy gym! I ordered the Salmon Mango Avocado salad. It is was so fresh and delicious! It had perfectly cooked salmon on a bed of mixed greens topped with avocado, tomatoes, carrots, red onion, cilantro, green onions, and a spicy lime dressing. It hit all the spots! I can eat this every single day for several weeks straight! The family that runs this place were so sweet and incredibly patient as I was reading the menu trying to decide what to try. Their most popular are the Ahi tuna salad, salmon mango avocado salad, and the Toss'd steakhouse with goddess dressing. They had some pressed juices as well as Thai tea, sodas, and fresh coconut juice. There were a few places to sit for small groups of two or three people. The parking wasn't much of a problem but spaces weren't plentiful when we arrived in the afternoon. I would drive out of my way to eat here because the food was delicious and the family that runs this place were the kindest people.

Service was great but the food was not. We ordered 3 junior bowls which were not good. Their…read morebrisket was awful! My kids did not eat it. The chicken had some flavor but not great. The veggies were dry. We spent $80 and only my husband ate his food because he didn't want to waste food. The place also doesn't have great sitting and it has a funny smell. Unfortunately not good at all. Will not be coming back. It looks like a newer place maybe they will improve their food.

The carne asada was juicy and perfectly cooked. We ordered the loaded fries, and wow they were truly loaded with meat! We also tried the taco enchilada plate as a sampler, and the enchilada sauce was to die for. I literally scooped up every last bit with my quesadilla. They offer several house made sauces with different spice levels, and all of them were delicious. Each of us had a different favorite, so definitely sample them all before choosing. The quesadilla was great too, but if you're deciding, I highly recommend the loaded fries and the taco enchilada plate both were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. Lastly, we got the horchata, and it was excellent perfectly flavored and not watered down at all. We pass through Temecula every time we visit California, and we can't wait to add this gem to our regular stop. There are so many other menu items we're excited to try next time!
