    Butterscotch banana bread pudding
    Pete T.

    I had the 6 oz sirloin with bacon-wrapped prawns, and everything was excellent. The steak was incredibly tender and cooked perfectly, and the prawns were delicious. The butterscotch banana bread pudding was the perfect finish--absolutely delicious! Service was great and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I'd come back to! Must try.

    Hangover Burger (cooked medium, Bacon, Onion Ring, fried egg, and cheese), with steak fries.
    Rey M.

    Had dinner at this place last night with friends and family (party of 8). Food was average. I had the Hangover Burger, it was okay (definitely not Ponte Winery burger or CaliKid Burger & Shake burger). My wife's salad and half-rack bbq ribs was okay. However, we love the fast and friendly service!

    Visited Kelsey's more times than I care to admit. However, it's a great casual spot w lots of TV's playing various sports throughout the day and night. I've enjoyed most everything on the menu except maybe one or two things. Pizzas are a great choice if feeding a group. The steaks are reasonably priced and flavorful. Sandwiches are also a quick option for great value. Food comes out quick and the servers are all solid. They do change the menu regularly tho. While not extensive, if you have a favorite item, might want to ask about it early on. Keep on Yelp'n!

    RIBEYE STEAK
    Janet T.

    It was our FIRST TIME at KELSEY'S and we had very low expectations. We also had a $20 dine in credit from Pechanga so we wanted to use that at Kelsey's. Let's just say that we were very impressed with our experience... PRIME RIBEYE STEAK: 10/10 STAR OF THE SHOW! The steak fries were very good and comparable to the steak fries at the WYNN CASINO in VEGAS! I also enjoyed the steak as much as I enjoyed the steak at the GREAT OAK STEAK HOUSE!... SIDE OF ASPARAGUS: 9/10 very enjoyable and love the char on it. One point off because I wanted a bigger portion... SERVICE: A+ EXCELLENT!!! KYLIA was excellent!!! I'm very impressed with the food and the service... AMBIANCE: 10/10 The atmosphere was very nice and on the quiet side sitting near the cashier and not inside the bar area. There's a lot of nice big screen TV for enjoying the game as well... ROCK ON KELSEY'S!!! I'm going to keep coming back for your STEAK ;) You sure know how to cook a STEAK!

    Fish and chips are beyond nasty! Don't do it...
    Andre And Tami P.

    Absolute crap!!! Burgers were crap, ordered 3 different ones. Fish and chips at $30 are a joke! Pork belly appetizers had great flavor yet came cold! The best of the evening were the brisket nachos! Go for the beer not the food!

    Food was delicious busy service was not great. Very slow and the food took a long time. The restaurant wasn't too busy so not sure why it took so long to get our order out. When we ask for appetizer plates they never came so we had to take plates from another table along with other place settings. We also asked for ranch dressing and extra plate, so when the server brought us ranch dressing she and told us the extra plate was what the ranch dressing was on. What?!?!? Not okay, that plate is being used to serve the dressing! Unbelievable.....

    Fish and chips

    LATE NIGHT snack. Plenty of seating which is a PLUS. Food was delicious . The supreme pizza was a little soggy perhaps due to all the fixings on it but it was still tasty. I absolutely love their fries. I thought the fish was greasy but looks can be deceiving and yet again it was yummy! Our server was very friendly but service was a little slow. It took a while for our food to come out but it was worth the wait/

    Lobster tempura
    Mark H.

    Service was a little slow but they were busy due to the Jo Koy show that night so I'll forgive that because everything else made up for it. Service was perfectly fine after the initial wait. I should mention we were seated at the bar trying to order dinner so I completely understand why there was a delay in service. ANNNNNYWAY, just wanted a light dinner so we shared plates. A Caesar's salad with shrimp added and lobster tempura. Both items were delectable and there was enough food to satisfy two people. I could've eaten a little more because it was just SO good but it was enough that I felt full but not overstuffed. I assumed the shrimp on the salad would just be a little pile of bay shrimp sprinkled on top but NOPE! They were extra large and prepared perfectly. And I can't say enough about the lobster tempura. Big, generous portions of lobster, tempura fried and served with some kind of chili aioli condiment. The drinks were drinkin' too! If you're ever at Pechanga, go. You won't be disappointed.

    Baked beans
    Johnnie C.

    Service was quick and good. The atmosphere was decent and they had large screen TVs throughout the place and there were a lot of booths and tables and bar seating also. It was situated in the east area if the casino and the menu was so so, not much of a selection, but enough to get you started. They serve alcohol as well. We got the Kelsey salad, corn on the cob and baked beans. The salad was okay and the corn and beans were good. I would return if I was in the area.

    Jungle Bird cocktail
    Doug B.

    Kelsey's is a sports bar inside of Pechanga Casino Resort. There are a lot of TVs at the bar as well as TVs on the walls inside the dining area. They have quite a selection of beers on tap, and quite a few bottles of liquor on display. If you are looking for more of a non-sports bar experience, they do have seating along the outside. This may or may not be quieter, depending on how busy it is inside and in the casino nearby. We have dined outside the bar a few times in the past and had a good experience. On this visit, we sat at the bar to have an appetizer and a cocktail. We visited around 8:30pm on a weeknight, and it was fairly slow and relatively quiet inside. For our appetizer, we ordered the fried pickles ($15). We usually prefer pickle chips, but theirs are fried pickle spears which had a good amount of batter. We let them cool off for quite a while, but we both burned our mouths biting into them initially. We let them cool off some more, and then finally enjoyed them. The serving size is ok, and it comes with regular and chipotle ranch dressing for dipping. I ordered the Desert Peach cocktail (Teremana blanco tequila, Ancho Reyes chile liqueur, peach, lime, $16). It had a good mix of peach flavor and heat, and was not boozy. I liked the thick Tajin rim. She ordered the Jungle Bird (Myer's dark rum, Campari, pineapple, agave, lime, $16). The bartender warned us that this was a bitter cocktail, but that was an understatement as it was extremely bitter. Maybe they go a little heavier on the Campari than usual, but I wouldn't recommend ordering this if you don't like bitter drinks. Service was ok. As slow as it was, we only saw our bartender a few times after ordering. We saw the bar helper a lot more frequently, and he kept our water filled up. Kelsey's is a good spot to grab casual food and drinks, especially if you want to watch sports.

    I absolutely loved Kelsey's. The service was top notch. I believe our server's name was Tito and he was amazing. I would definitely recommend the brussels sprouts and pork belly to start with and the mac & cheese as a side. Also, the Rocky Road dessert was to die for.!! this place turns into a little club after hours. It was so funny to walk by a couple hours later and see people dancing to it. DJ in the evening definitely give it a try.

    Meat lover pizza
    Irving G.

    We got the meat lover pizza. It was very salty, the brisket was burnt. The salt completely over powered everything and all the flavors got lost.

    Menu  7/26/25
    Marcia R.

    We were sat down quickly but boy the service was so slow, they sat 7 of us in the back of the bar. And our drinks were at the bar but we waited and waited for them crawl to our table It didn't happen for a long time!! We all were tempted to get up and get them our self's But finally another server came out and brought them to the table but my Ice tea wasn't there so I waited a bit for my beverage Then I received my ice tea I ask we ready to order Now he was so nice and we order 2 pizza's for the table and some appts. Sorry I didn't take more picture's. I was hungry a long day and no really breakfast

    Came here Friday around 8:00 PM and sat at the outdoor corner bar…read more The Good: The beer was great, from the blonde ale to the local IPAs. Once our order was finally placed, the food arrived fairly quickly. Everything looked excellent, with great presentation and generous portions for the price. The loaded nachos were outstanding--perfectly balanced with cheese, shredded beef, and all the other toppings. You could tell the ingredients were high quality. The EB Burger also looked great. For a $20 burger, looked promising and came with a generous serving of crispy fries and a large pickle spear. Although it arrived closer to well-done than the rare temperature I ordered, it was still tasty. The Not So Good: The restaurant was not particularly busy, yet it took quite a while to get served. We were only able to place our initial drink order after repeatedly trying to get the bartender's attention. Unfortunately, this became the theme of the evening. Even though guests around us appeared to be receiving regular service, we often felt invisible. When we finally got the bartender's attention to order beers, she hurried away before we could place our food order. It took additional time and more attempts to flag her down before we could order dinner. When the burger arrived overcooked, I couldn't even mention it because our server never checked on us or asked how the food was. Throughout the evening, I had to flag down other staff members just to request another beer or refill our water. Our server/bartender finally acknowledged the issue only after we spoke with another staff member about both the overcooked burger and the lack of service. To her credit, she offered to comp the burger. I initially declined but later accepted because it was nowhere near the temperature I had ordered. Despite the disappointing service, I still left a standard tip. I also told her it was a shame because we live right around the corner and had been excited to try this place. We were hoping it could become our regular Friday-night spot and somewhere we could bring friends and neighbors who enjoy good food and drinks. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I don't think we'll be coming back.

My parents visited Oscar's while they were out in Temecula a few weeks ago, and I am not exaggerating when I say they have not stopped talking about this place since. And apparently neither have the friends they went with. The food? Amazing. The drinks? Amazing. The atmosphere? Amazing. But the thing they keep coming back to is the staff--especially the bartenders. They could not stop talking about how genuinely friendly, hilarious, welcoming, and entertaining everyone was. Weeks later they're still repeating stories and jokes from that night like they just got home yesterday. And this wasn't some neighborhood spot five minutes from their house. They were out there on a little getaway, so for a random stop to become one of the things they remember and talk about most says a lot. My parents are pretty easygoing customers and aren't the type to make a huge production over a restaurant, which is exactly why hearing them rave about Oscar's this much caught my attention. So Oscar's Brewing Company--and especially the crew working that night--thank you. You gave my parents and their friends one hell of a memorable experience. Apparently now I need to make the trip to Temecula myself and see what all the damn hype is about. 5 stars from the people who went--and 5 stars from the guy who's been hearing about it for weeks.
