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.

We stopped for dinner and the did not appear busy. There was plenty of free parking available in the shopping center and indoor/outdoor seating. It was very windy and too cold to eat outside, so we opted to eat inside. There were only four tables to choose from and one bathroom. This became an issue when someone was already using the bathroom, probably blowing it up since it had already been five plus minutes, and both of my kids had to go (we ended up going to Trader Joe's to use the bathroom). The food finally came out. We ordered 2 tri-tip plates, a chicken sandwich, a kids quesadilla w/rice, and 4 drinks. I was concerned about the tri-tip after reading many others complaining about it being overcooked. This was not an issue. The meat came out cooked perfectly, but the pieces were small. The mashed potatoes were good and buttery. The mac & cheese was good and had a nice flavor. The Brussel sprouts were undercooked, hard, and bland. The bread had soaked up the blood from the tri-tip and was soggy gross. The kids quesadilla was literally 2 store bought tortillas and some sprinkled cheddar cheese that wasn't even melted in between. I didn't care for it, but I'm glad my son ate it. Overall, I had high expectations for this place and it was lacking.
