Food was good and atmosphere was nice. But the drinks weren't as cold as we would've liked and the service was the slowest ever. We sat near the kitchen where servers were constantly going in and out, completely ignored. Mind you there were servers and people in uniform just standing around doing nothing. I think the bartender was maybe the hardest working person in the front of house. If they could get their staff on point, this would be a great place to visit. read more

Waited for multiple visits before a review. Been there three times. Here's my breakdown: Venue: I expected it to be filled with UFC, Dan Henderson memorabilia everywhere. So Yes and no. Mostly a very open ambiance, well put together and tasteful. With a touch of UFC in the dining area. Perfect balance if you ask me. Service: Absolutely the best in Temecula! Fast, quick to come back if you haven't decided, no waiting on your bill, always on top of you with water, more beer, or drinks. Very friendly. Food: We've had the wings, salad, burgers, steak and salmon on our 3 trips. 10/10 one of the better craft burgers in Temecula. Wife loved the Cobb salad so much she ordered it twice. Warm, perfectly cooked, came out fast (estimated 10 minutes or so). Drinks: I cannot comment too much on the bartenders, but the Hendo's craft beers were good. Wife had a sangria and loved it. Cost: The prices are on par with what to expect from Temecula higher scale restaurants. For a new startup restaurant I'd give them an A+. This can and probably will be our "new spot". You have to give them a try at least. It's worth the short trip. FYI, Dan Henderson has been there in all 3 trips, greeting, working, giving the employees a helping hand. read more

Chicken sandwich was tasteless,dry and overcooked. The service was attentive. Also ordered fried pickles as appetizer. Mediocre have had better at other restaurants. read more

To start the girls at the hostess stand, were engaging and wished our daughter a happy birthday. After we were seated our waitress, Charlie was very engaging and offered recommendations. She was also able to describe the meals and the taste of the items we were curious about. She was super engaging and had conversation like we had know each other forever. Oh yeah, the crème brûlée doughnut was amazing. The ambience of the restaurant was lively. The football games were on every TV, which was easy to see no matter where you were sitting. We will definitely be back. The service and overall package was great. read more

So happy to have found this place. The food is amazing and the portions are large. The drinks are awesome. The fight or flight signature cocktail was so yummy, as well as the red sangria and the takedown. I think the bartender that helped me was named Andrew..? He was great too, super friendly and knowledgeable. And he made delicious drinks. The atmosphere was super cool. Loved the design of the place and the outdoor patio is so cute and cozy. Looking forward to coming back many time! Oh and the butter toffee cake that Andrew suggested was phenomenal! read more

Stopped by Hendos new place today and let me tell you this place is amazing. Food & service was great. Cool layout, very clean. We had the filet Mignon, wings, fries, steak salad, chips & guacamole and some other apps. After eating, we wandered over to the gym and met Sheila. Sheila is a world class ambassador for Hendos. She called Dan and he came down to talk and meet with us. Super cool that he took the time to do that. Super cool guy. Definitely will be going back for the food and the fight nights they have a few times a year. read more

My husband and I decided to do a Monday date lunch to avoid visiting on a busy weekend. We were greeted immediately by a friendly hostess, sat and our sever came and took our order and she also was attentive and friendly. I had the tomato bisque soup with was served with two small grilled cheese crostini and my husband had the Fox burger which he liked so much. We had two drinks, the "Smokeshow" which were tasty but for $16 each they should be. The only reason I rated a 4 out of 5 is that the tomato bisque was a little watery and expected it to be a little thicker, nevertheless tasty. I do not follow MMA but thought the place looked pretty nice in the pics and interesting concept with a gym, coffee shop, brewery and distillery under one roof. A great addition to Temecula! We will be back. Looking forward to spending a little time on the patio when the weather turns cooler. read more

Great atmosphere! Great location just wish I lived in Murrieta!! I would be here every weekend!

Great place for larger parties! Loud,fun vibes with live music performances. I would recommend to any group

We enjoyed our filet mignon which was cooked perfectly medium & our cabernet from Paso Robles. The steak came with no sides which you can order à la carte. read more

This place is exactly what Temecula has needed for a long time! It's the perfect mash-up of a brewery and restaurant, complete with a full bar. You can tell that everything--from the building itself to the food and drinks--has been thoughtfully designed and executed. I was extremely impressed with the quality of the food, the drinks, and especially the level of service. We started with the guac and chips along with the steakhouse fries. The guacamole was some of the best I've ever had, served with fresh-made chips. The fries were next-level--crispy and flavorful, topped with a delicious cheese sauce and green onion. Whoever is running the fryer back there needs to teach half the restaurants I've been to how to cook fries properly! I had the Fox Burger, and it was spot-on. Perfectly cooked and packed with flavor, and that sweet bacon jam? Absolute killer. I can't stress this enough--this place is a must-try. Keep in mind, this was during their soft opening, and it's only going to get better from here. So stoked to have this spot in the area! read more

All I can say is WOW! The environment, food, and live music on a Wednesday night was absolutely spot on! All of Kevin's recommendations were absolutely 10/10. Probably one of the best old fashions I've ever had and the ribeye was so tender and juicy. I will say though what absolutely closed the night out was the crème brûlée dessert was insane. Kevin you absolutely TKO'd it tonight! We will be back read more

My husband and I came here to eat, but we ended up leaving after paying for drinks. We were greeted by a hostess who acted like she was annoyed we were there. We asked a question about the restaurant being owned by Dan Henderson, and she just stared at us like we were stupid. At our table, We waited and waited for a server, even though it was not very busy in the restaurant. This was all the more annoying because there was a large group of servers standing around chatting with each other and not helping anyone. We looked around, and it seemed like no one was getting served. Finally someone came over to us after a long wait, and she told us our server was on break, but took our drink orders. Servers are allowed to take breaks, but a good restaurant makes sure this does not impact customers. After another exceptionally long wait, and my husband received his beer and I received something that was supposed to be Coke, but clearly the machine was broken because it tasted like a weird syrupy liquid. I did not drink it. It took forever for someone to come back to us (still apparently not our server, who was still on break), and we paid immediately. We were there at least 45 minutes and all we got were two drinks - no one even came to ask if we wanted to order food, even though we were seated in the restaurant area and looking at the menus. We definitely will not be coming back. The décor is nice, but that's about all I can say for it. read more

Went there for lunch had the wedge salad with blue cheese it was great. Customer Service was on point as well.

Great atmosphere, average service and below average food. Defiantly needs to revamp the menu. Been there twice and disappoint in the quality and taste of the food both times. read more

Good food, beer, and atmosphere what more could you ask for? Our bartender did a phenomenal job with drink and food recommendations!

Hendo's Barrel House has a lot going for it -- the food was tasty and well-prepared, and the restaurant itself is huge with a lively, fun atmosphere. That said, the prices felt a bit steep for what you get, and the service was noticeably slow. Our server was friendly, but we waited longer than expected for both drinks and food, even though it wasn't overly busy. If you're looking for a spacious spot with a buzzing vibe and don't mind paying a little extra (and being patient for your order), Hendo's is worth checking out. Id give it a 3.5 read more

Awesome experience- venue is great, service and food was good, and was even able to get a pic with Hendo who was super cool just hanging out. read more

I had the wedge salad and the tomato bisque the salad was good and filling and the bisque came with a half of a grilled cheese the portions were good. The selection was narrow but it supposed to be a steak house so I get why the emphasis was the steak. The ambiance was nice and everything was very clean. read more

Our server, Tia, knew her menu items. She was great and the food was good. Great selection of spirits also.

We had dinner there tonight. The food and service were next level. My husband and I shared the wedge salad, burnt end and meatballs. Our son had the shrimp and grit and our daughter-in-law had the filet. Everything was so delicious. Our service from Octavio was so perfect. We will be back!! read more

We had great service and the food was very good. Our server was Amber P and it was such a pleasure to hear a young person say you are welcome instead of yep or no worries. Great setting as well read more

First, I need to start off with this is a beautiful unique restaurant in a great location and could be fabulous with the right customer service & the little things that were missing! My husband and I came in here on Labor Day and granted, it was a holiday but It was still open, which we were happy about ! The young girl who was the hostess was not customer service oriented at all acted like we were interrupting her day. We decided to sit at the bar for a quick drink and wasn't sure if we were gonna stay. The bartender was a beautiful, sweet and very outgoing gal with great customer service but after awhile we decided to take a table and we got seated with one of the servers in the corner booth . Although the hostess said we had to come back and check with her in order to get seated when there was no one in the restaurant and they just had finished a memorial ceremony and pretty much everybody had left so there was plenty of open seats.!?! Anyway, the food was good! We had the seared Aji tuna appetizer that was amazing. ! Then I had a fox burger and truffle fries husband had some type of rib sandwich and a salad and some Mexican beer for him. I had a white sangria at the table. The little things that I think are a must on tables are salt and pepper, a center piece with a little light in that area would be nice because it is dark and water always first ! Also, our waiter was good yet. He didn't realize we didn't have water and it wasn't filled until we were leaving. . After being seated there and our drink order being taken , another waitress came over and started to try to serve us too so I don't think they knew where they were supposed to work that day, but that does happen.! I would also say to keep all the doors closed because they kept opening them and leaving them open and the flies were coming in and the sun was hitting me in the eye with the one door in corner . So there's some kinks that need to be worked out, but I do think the place is great. The food is good, The waiter and bartender were great but the hostess needs lessons in customer service and the little things need to be added to the tables. Would I return? Yes and hopefully these little things will be done when I do. read more

We are from Las Vegas and have been living in Murrieta for a few years. We love it here but we struggle to find the kind of quality service, food and entertainment we are used to. Hendos is the kind of vibe we love. It's lively, friendly, great food and drinks, and a great staff. Particularly, Jessie has been our bartender lately. She is pure energy and gives us great service. Her saucy personality is one of the main reasons we come in. Keep up the good work! read more

Had a great time at Hendos.. Kevin is an awesome waiter. Hes very professional and hard working. Good job Kev

Went in yesterday and was shocked that the food quality went down so fast from opening. Ordered guacamole and chips and it was flavorless. The chicken club was disgusting. Made with chicken thigh meat. It also was terrible to eat because it was a sloppy mess and not layered properly like a club sandwich should be. Sweet potatoes also flavorless. Add salt, add rosemary. Come on, Make delicious food. Restaurant was not busy. I hope they can make changes before it's too late. Bar cocktails and our table waitress were fantastic! read more

I've been looking for a new steak place for quite a while since RJ's closed down and the one in Old Town is always packed. Steaks are good. But service is rough. I think it's just cause the place is new and people are trying to figure out their battle rhythm. Hopefully Service improves and maybe the prices can come down a little bit too. The rest of the food quality on the menu seems to be cheap and frozen only to be reheated when ordered from the kitchen. Not too impressed, but I just sit at the bar and eat a steak and I can't complain. It's a neat concept being right next-door to where they train, but hopefully it stays open longer than the Bastard's Canteen did. read more

Came in for Monday night football this place is excellent the birria quesadilla is so good. The bartenders are quick to get your order and always happy to help with anything you need and always go above and beyond to make your experience a pleasant one. read more
