    Hazy IPA
    Melissa V.

    We came here on a Thursday right when they opened with a party of 16. The service was great. Dylan was consistently checking in on us and making sure we were good. Food came out quick and everything was good. No complaints. Everyone enjoyed their food and drinks. Definitely will come back!

    Steak frittes
    Monica R.

    Stopped by here on Monday night and it wasn't too busy. We ordered the wings as an appetizer and the steak frittes. The wings were meaty, perfectly crispy and the sauce had a sweet and spicy taste. The steak needed a bit of salt but the butter gave it good flavor. The fries were super crispy and their ranch is delicious. The service was great, our server was very nice and attentive.

    My dediec to stop by this brewerys since we had just finished wine-tasting in Temecula. Happy hour ended at 5pm, so the place was dead they should extend their happy hour thru 6, so people can come in after work. We sat on their patio by the fire pit The prices were high, 20$ for a burger and fries. I just ordered some fries for $7, they were delicious and we were able to share and get our fill. We recommend the hard cherry cola seltzer

    Organic Salad with Steak, Buffalo Wings and Chicken Chop Salad. All AMAZING!
    Ellie Q.

    My new GO-TO all week long! I seriously crave this food all week. My favorites so far are the boneless Chicken Wings, OMGosh! They're amazing! Too many exclamations, I know. But they really are that good. Both Buffalo and Chili Garlic are delicious. The salads are all tasty as well as filling. I still need to try the famous mac and cheeses. Everyone there has been so friendly and helpful. The vibe is super rustic cowboy which I love. The outdoor space is inviting with a few fireside tables. See you there!

    It's been years since I've been to this establishment, so I decided to give it a try. Greeted by Mason the atmosphere was calm, soothing and comfortable, for some quick bites and a pint during Happy Hour. Ordered the Ahi Tuna Nachos and the Asada Fries. The Ahi Tuna was delicious, chips crispy, and the sauce was a little sweet for my liking but overall it was tasty. The Asada Fries were delicious! Bits of beef, blue cheese crumbles, guacamole, cheese sauce on crispy tortilla chips. My Hazy house IPA was pretty good, and the Pineapple IPA was delicious as well. Only issue was the temperature, I prefer cold beer and it was on the warm side. Great customer service provided by Mason, and I will return. Happy Hour 1500-1700, 7 days a week

    Great customer service!

    Our soccer team loves to have at least one team dinner when we travel for tournaments. Karl Strauss Breweries have been our go-to place since they can host large groups and they offer a variety of food. As always, our tables were reserved and service was amazing. We appreciate being able to order by QR code. It helps so much with 20 different families! Thank you so much to the Temecula crew for being so helpful and accommodating.

    Fish N Chips with Sweet Potato Fries
    Jeremy C.

    We came here to celebrate my son's graduation. The service was great. Our server was great, just didn't remember his name, but he said he just came back from working somewhere else. I had the fish n chips with sweet potato fries and they were great, ordered 2 more rounds of sweet potato fries. The food came out in good time. Had the big pretzel as well but did not take a picture of it. The place is nice, have never had a bad experience here. The restaurant/brewery is welcoming. The one thing I have to complain about is that the Golden Stout is only seasonal, which I just found out and disappointed me. The place was quiet that night we went, they have great outdoor seating as well with a fire pit.

    The Hard Cherry cola on tap is so good! Lots of other beer on tap as well. The food is delicious. Best Mac in town. If you are a little hungry get the mini mac. Perfect little snack.

    Pub burger
    Cheri M.

    Ordered food to be delivered. It arrived just in time cause we were starving. I ordered the pub burger. Great burger that was made from ground steak. It was a pretty big piece of beef. Loved the chipotle ale mayo that was on it. It also came with lettuce, tomato, onion and Tillamook aged cheddar and fries on the side. The fries were just ok.

    Had never been here before thought we would give it a try. Staff was nice and friendly. The food was good. The only thing was is we were sat outside, cause we were told there was no room indoors, even though there was empty tables we were sat in a section with a light had gone out, so it was hard to see the menu or even our food when we left. The empty tables were still empty. Don't understand why we were not allowed to sit inside.

    Chipotle Pastrami Sandwich
    Heber P.

    The place is quiet when we came in. We love sitting at the bar. We had the following; Pastrami sandwich 6/10 It's not a traditional one which I knew but they don't have pickles and that's a big thing for me for this kind of sandwich. The bread wasn't my favorite either. Meat was cooked good. Crispy Brussels sprouts 7/10 Lacking a little flavor, it's there but not enough to rage about. Side of the piggy bank Mac n cheese 8/10 it's good just needs to be a little cheesier but would order it again. Service is good as well

    Post work dinner and drinks
    Miori I.

    In town to work an event and was starving at the end of a long work day. Showed up with the team of 7 ready to unwind. We walked over so we didn't have to deal with parking. However, there is a huge plaza lot with plenty of parking so it would not have been a problem. The brewery/restaurant had a good size indoor seating space. Small distinction between bar area and restaurant. The bar area was dimly lit compared to the rest of the restaurant. It was cold and dark when we got there, but I did see people enjoying their string light adorned outdoor space. Service was 5 stars. Our server (now I feel bad for not remembering her name), was awesome. She was attentively, friendly, extremely personable, and had great suggestion. Plus she was knowledgeable on beer... a plus. Drinks: - Our server suggestion so many great beer and kombucha items that made it way too hard to decide. So she instead created a tasting flight which I truly appreciated. Their new IPA was chef's kiss. And I highly recommend their sour and blueberry or hibiscus kombucha. We even purchased cans to take home. Our food: - Ahi poke nachos (A+..and this coming from a person who doesn't really like fish) big chunks of fish, tasty seasoning, not too saucy, chips not stale..yay - Mac on Tap. cheesy, crunchy, great for sharing - Crispy Brussels Sprouts. so so good. Almost wanted to order a second. The brussels were indeed crispy but not burnt so the flavor of the vegetable wasn't ruined. cheese shavings and bacon crisps on the side were a good move. My husband ordered the ribeye steak and frites which he loved. I snacked on his veggies and had a couple bites of steak but I was full from the yummy appetizers that we shared. There is a Karl Strauss location not too far from my home so I will probably make my way for a date night soon.

    Steak and fries
    Ruchelle T.

    We came here for my husband's birthday dinner and I must say...I'm disappointed. We ordered steak, burger, sides and poke nachos. Nachos was definitely store bought as you could tell from the looks of it and taste wise. Steak, mashed potatoes and mac and cheese was relatively good. My husband's bread was somewhat burnt but whatever. Service was efficient, Hannah was friendly and didn't miss a beat. Ambiance was okay, although I get the vibe they were going for but it was a tad dark for me. There's nothing worth coming back to here.

We arrived early on a Friday evening, and thankfully it wasn't crowded. Since they don't take reservations, getting there early is definitely the way to go. We ordered the Dealer's Choice, which was refreshing, balanced, and beautifully presented. We also tried one of their stronger signature cocktails, and they definitely don't hold back -- there's a reason they limit those drinks to two per person! Both drinks were creative and well-crafted. The bartenders clearly know their craft, and the drink presentation was outstanding. Service was good, although not especially memorable, which is why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5. One thing that would make the experience even more immersive would be if the entire staff wore cowboy attire to match the Old West theme. With the speakeasy setting and vintage decor, it would add a fun touch and make the experience feel even more authentic. Overall, Twain Speakeasy offers excellent cocktails, good music, and a unique atmosphere. I would definitely come back again, and my recommendation is to arrive early since reservations aren't available and I can see this place filling up quickly on busy nights.

I love that they are dog friendly and it wasnt too hot today at the patio. I got the bloody mary to start and it was pretty good. The bacon in it was amazing, however, it didnt taste like 2 shots. The drink was thick but the flavor was still good. I got avocado toast with smoked salmon. This very small meal was 20$. I got a lox bagel and 4 huge pieces of smoked salmon with capers and a side of avocado a few days ago in Vegas on the strip and that was 16$. Sooooooo... how is this justifiable? Anyways, I also ordered a diet coke and they came out with a mini can. Talk about why this place is called "small" barn. Lol! The server stated the can is super small bc its only 2$. Thats just silly. Just get the bigger can and charge me 3 bucks for it. Thats fair in my humble opinion. 4$ for two mini cans is wonky to me. Alas, these are not the reasons why this place originally got a 2 star from me. It was the tomatoes on my avocado toast. They taste spoiled, old, and mushy. It made my stomach hurt a bit. As for the salmon, it tasted like it smelled, funky. Why i ended up giving this place a 3 instead of 2 stars? Bc their creme brulee was the BEST creme brulee I've ever had. It was so luscious, creamy, and it felt like these are the kinds of desserts GODS eat! It was amazing! My server was friendly and talkative with me up until the end. She said "have a good day" in an oddly, irritated way when I paid with my card. Oh wells. Ill come here for the desserts! And perhaps ill give other things a try

Instead of trying to fix the situation, staff asked if we wanted boxes while we were still sitting there clearly unhappy and barely served. The final straw was my father-in-law saying, "I'll just eat my burger, I'm starving." The manager brought it out already boxed and bagged. He had specifically requested no lettuce. When he mentioned it, she confidently replied, "Sir, that burger doesn't even come with lettuce." We opened the bun. Full lettuce. The expression on her face said it all. No accountability, poor service, cold food, and a completely disappointing Mother's Day experience. Needless to say, we won't be back.
