Red Pine Cafe - Asian Fusion Near Me - Temecula, California

We were looking for a Korean food that wasn't all you can eat and we came across this spot. The have a WabaGrill / Chipotle approach where you choose your protein and sides. The food tasted great. You have to pay an additional $2.50 per bowl but it's worth it. It Beef Bugolgi. The reason for the 4 stars is because the portions are very small. I spent $38 for two bowls. It's pretty expensive for what it is. read more

We went to Red Pine Cafe for the first time and were a bit surprised by the process. To be honest, it was not what we were expecting, and we are happy it was not what we were expecting. The guys working the counter were very cool. The dude helping us was patient as we went through the ordering process. The establishment itself was nice and clean, so no complaints there either. The food was good. It was fresh and tasted great. The ability to customize your order to fit your individual tastes was actually very nice. The portions were a good size too. We will definitely come back! read more

Owner is amazing and friendly! Food is super tasty!!! We will be back to support this small business owner who grew up here in town.

Amazing food and service. I had a bowl with chicken and all of the toppings and it was sooooo good. I'm not from Temecula, but I'll be back. This beats your normal waba read more

From the moment my best friend and I walked in the guy running the store by himself was nothing but kind and friendly on every level! Not only that the food was customizable and absolutely phenomenal!!! The place is small but deserves more business! read more

Red Pine Cafe - Custom Rice Bowl (Smallest size available, still an amazing amount of food!) - Asian Fusion Near Me - Temecula, California

I have been wanted to try this place for a long time, and love to support a young GOHS alum entrepreneur. My daughter and I each had a bowl. We tried chicken and pork. It was delicious. I loved all the fresh veggies, the seeds and the Goyzu ? Sauce. The bowl is a great combination of flavors and textures. We could only eat half. The pomegranate refresher was also very good. My daughter had a Thai tea with Boba that she loved. The owner has a great personality. We enjoyed ourselves. Glad we went. I'll ba back. read more

The cook front entrance guy was just so pleasant. I can't stress this enough. Then the food, come on. It's so great. Awesome concept awesome place read more

Better and healthier alternative to Waba grill with more options !! Ordered chicken bowls with everything and it was good.

Salad place owner is a really nice guy. Definitely felt like it was worth the money lotta flavor. I wouldn't go anywhere else with this place. If you're looking for this type of food trust me you'll be happy. Also, if you're an anime, you'll love this place. read more

So glad I finally got to check out this place! I got a bowl with white rice (would love if they had some kind of salad as an option for a more bibimbap-like experience). I was planning on upgrading my protein to beef, but the chicken on the grill smelled sooo good and the cashier recommended it as a customer favorite. From there, I got all the toppings except corn. Go heavy on the seed mix---that stuff is so fresh and adds the nicest crunch. The in-house made kimchi was a nice touch! We ate inside, very casual setting. read more

Red Pine Cafe - Chicken Build Your Own Bowl - Asian Fusion Near Me - Temecula, California

I had the build your own bowl, with white rice (light on the rice), beef, and all the veggies, with Goku Sauce. It was very flavorful, well portioned, and full of different flavors and textures. The food has gotten even better than before. The wait was less than 7 minutes, for an authentically cooked meal of this caliber that was impressive! I highly recommend Red Pine. read more

I finally decided to give this place a shot earlier in the week because I didn't feel like making dinner. I've been hearing all the buzz on Temecula talk on Facebook and figured this would be a perfect opportunity to try something new. I'm so glad I did. I walked in and was greeted with smiles. I did up getting a beef bowl with brown rice and all the fixings. While that was cooking I had the pleasure of meeting the owner who is super friendly. I'm a chatter box and can talk and that's exactly what I did. lol anyways, I raced home to see what the hype was about. I put some of the sauce that I got and gave everything a mixing and dug in. From the first to last bite everything was excellent. Tasty, fresh, quick, excellent customer service. What more can you ask for? I'm sold on this place. I will definitely be back again. This is a must try place. read more

Food is amazing!! It has become one of my favorite places to go. Owner is extremely nice and has a great attitude which seems hard to find these days! read more

Owner is the best, super personable and Red Pine has definitely turned into my go to spot in town. Healthy, fresh and great food always. Awesome location as well. Check it out! read more

It was really tasty. I love that from 2-5pm they have happy hour and i was able to get a thai tea (dairy free milk) with boba with my bowl for only $2! I got the white rice bowl with pork and all the toppings except corn. I enjoyed it. I got pretty full. They even gave me pickles and kimchi sides which were great. Love fermented foods! I just wish the pork was a little less charred. Also everything is served in disposable plastic so if you're eating in would be nice to have real silverware and dishes as an option. I think next time I will try the chicken or tofu. The service was great. Very smiley and good vibes. read more

I stopped by here after a hospital visit. Great good and service. Pork was flavorful and good portions!

Amazing food with great healthy options & owner is very nice. I'd definitely recommend trying it out !

Wanted to try this place out, we've been on the hunt to support local business more. We got the steak bowl with the gochu sauce! We did order 3rd party delivery so we were not able to speak to the restaurant at all, however the order was seamless and items were correct! Excellent portion sizes, very great price! The steak was very tender and flavorful. Gochu sauce has some nice spice, I think could've been a touch spicer. The homemade pickles are a MUST! They reminded me of my childhood! The only two comments I would have are 1) the rice was a little mushy , not sure if was just because of turn around time ( about 20) so I'll wait till we eat in... And then I know it would be fine if ordering inside the restaurant but descriptions of items would be nice on the website... I.e. cheese corn lol is it just corn with cheese who knows lol. All in all loved it, can't wait to go back! read more

Red Pine Cafe - Asian Fusion Near Me - Temecula, California

Finally tried Red Pine Cafe yesterday after we've been wanting to check it out for a while. The cafe is a bit tucked away in a corner of a shopping center. Upon entering, we were greeted by a friendly worker behind the counter who asked if we had been there before and when we said it was our first time he quickly let us know what was most popular. The restaurant appeared clean, and the food station was clean as well. I opted for a chicken bowl with brown rice and all the toppings, plus the half and half sauces he recommended. We also had the pickled cucumbers and kimchi. At first, I was a little bit thrown because the ingredients were all cold, except for the rice, which was warm. I was not sure if I liked it at first, but the more I ate, the better it tasted. Then ingredients were fresh, and the bowls were well served. The pickled cucumbers were very good. I had never tried kimchi, and while it was good, it was a bit too intense for my liking. My husband liked it though. We sat outside and noticed that there was a steady stream of customers coming through the door. For 2 bowls (with the kimchi and pickled cucumbers) and 2 diet Cokes our total was $40. Not bad. I can see why this place has good reviews - fresh food, reasonably priced, and friendly service. read more

Red Pine Cafe - Bowl with chicken, brown rice, and all the toppings. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Temecula, California

Just ok. Bland. Small portions for $. Guy cooking by himself looked stressed and chicken was overcooked because he was trying to do too much. Burnt chicken ruined it for me. Hire help. read more

5 stars isn't enough for this gem! Not only is the food super fresh and delicious, it's a decent portion! The options they offer is amazing- they have vegan and vegetarian choices. The staff is very friendly, one of them is the owner. He's such a genuine person, you can tell he puts so much work and pride into his place. The environment is also very clean and quiet. So many tables inside and outside patio available too. Definitely plan on hosting hang-outs here for some yummy food and drinks. Consider us impressed, satisfied, and craving for more! Will be back again and again for sure. read more

We keep coming back for their bowls! It's so good! Packed with goodness! The service is great, and we love supporting local businesses.

I was really excited to support a young entrepreneur cooking healthy and tasty eats... So when I saw his posts I wanted the check it out. He seemed like a good person. I took my wife and 4 year old and we all loved it, he definitely created a fun experience, great healthy food, fun boba drinks even chatted up my son which was nice considering the little guy was being a bit impatient. I will be coming back for sure. The beef was tasty. Wife and son approved too. Thanks to the whole team there and happy we have this joint in town! read more

Tasty food, friendly service and inviting atmosphere. Great spot to stop for lunch! The owner is very kind and personable. The food is delicious and you get a generous portion for the price. Highly recommend stopping in! read more

Red Pine Cafe - Chicken rice bowl with veggies and toppings. Side of kimchi and pickled cucumbers, delicious! Thai tea, so refreshing on a hot summer day - Asian Fusion Near Me - Temecula, California

Ordered thru GH. Bowl was missing chicken and soy glaze. Food was bland and boring. Menu showed the strawberry lavender drink with boba but when ordered didn't come with boba. Would not recommend. read more

Food was delicious here! The best parts of Korean food put into a quick and easy bowl to enjoy! The beef is delicious and melts in your mouth with all the sauces. read more

I was not expecting such delicious Korean food in Temecula but this place was SOOOO good! The bowls are basically build your own bibimbap. For me, the perfectly seasoned vegetables were the stars of the show. Honestly the chicken was a bit on the dry side but it didn't matter as the flavor of ingredients mixed together was just so good. Kudos to the ultra friendly staff which was an added bonus. This will be our new place of choice when traveling home from SD to LA. read more

The menu is simple but delicious. The only thing not self explanatory is the "seed mix" which is sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds. It adds great texture. The owner was there training a new employee. (It was his first day.) Both were friendly. The service was a little slow because of the training aspect, but not too bad. Restaurant is clean with about 20 seats. There is also additional outside seating. It's located in a quiet strip mall with plenty of parking. Portions were small for the price ($14.89). It was the perfect size meal for my kids, but left me still a bit hungry. I'd love to see bowl size options and larger protein servings. The tofu serving was only 3 slices of non-uniform size. read more

Delicious food I had to go back again the next day for lunch. I have to say my wife is a big fan of Korean food but not a fan of fast food places so to say that this place impressed her that was a win win for both of us !!! The flavors are all there and compare to some of the best places that you cook yourself or your tofu soup places that never fail this place holds its own against them. read more

Today was our first time here and we will be returning customers. I got the bowl with rice as a base and beef. I got all the veggies and got the cucumbers and kimchi on the side. My taste buds have not been this happy in a long time. Those cucumbers were from a special kitchen in heaven. Everything was fresh. We got to meet the owner, Derek. Wonderful guy and very hospitable. read more
