It's an up-and-coming sandwich shop, and for good reason: handmade loaded sandwiches for $7.99 is an absolute steal in today's economy. There's only one worker so it can take a while if there are people waiting in line, but the wait is definitely worth it. Both the Simply Italian, GRB w/ AVO sandwiches are 5/5; the sandwiches are made-to-order with freshly cut ciabatta bread, thinly sliced meat, and veggies. Their quesadilla was also amazing too, and much bigger than what you would get from Taco Bell. Overall Bocadillo Kitchen was fantastic and it deserves the traction its getting from social media. I hope to visit again soon in the future.

Service is great the paid attention to detail in making the sandwich and the way she folded the wrapper. The pomegranate mango sauce or pomegranate vinaigrette added very nice sweet flavor. We got Bocadillo Signature sandwich about $8. Toasty bread outside really yummy sandwich. Can't wait to take my wife here. They give you a paper and you take it to the gas register and pay. Lastly no tables or chairs for eating have to take it to go. Have a nice day!

Very fresh ingredients…read more This was my first time at Jersey Mike's Subs ever. I was not sure what to expect. I have heard such great things about this place from meat eaters. Not so much from vegetarians. The vegetarian sandwich was fresh. All of the veggies were great. However, the vegetarian sandwich was just cheese and vegetables. Very boring. There needs to be a protein option, or something to make it heartier. Maybe tofu, eggs, veggie patty, chickpeas, avocado, etc. I hope they add something else that vegetarians can add to the sandwich. This is an overpriced sandwich for cheese, vegetables and bread. Super boring and not exciting when you are plant based. Now, for meat eaters this place is great. My husband loves it. Service was good. They cut the cheese (not farting lol). Ambiance was not too busy. There seemed to be a steady stream of people coming in and out.

I had the original italian. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. Based on the yelp ratings, my hopes weren't high. The ratio between bread and filling was balanced. The bread was sturdy but soft and the dressing was just enough to give flavor. It didn't soak through and make the bread soggy. The lettuce and tomatoes were fresh. The meats were also fresh. Honestly, I'd prefer this over Subway. It was a satisfying eat.

It's interesting how they have a little robot to assist in bringing the food to the table, but I can see why.

I…read morehad never visited Lake Elsinore, so this was a great excuse to cruise down Main St. of a small town freshly decorated for a festive Christmas season. Main Street Kitchen & Tap is perfectly situated across from a public parking lot, but we easily found parking at the curb out front. Tables outside looked inviting, but we were a bit chilly, so inside we popped. The brick and wood decor added to the cozy vibe and walls displayed historic photos of Old Lake Elsinore Main Street. Love that! After scanning the menu, I opted for the Whiskey Glazed Salmon with steamed broccoli and creamy garlic potatoes (which I read as mashed, but no, they're cubed). The salmon was cooked nicely and the whiskey sauce was tasty and light without being overly sweet. I think I would've preferred garlic mash potatoes, but ate a bit of the cubed ones to note they were fine. The steamed broccoli was done perfectly and NOT drowning in butter, which I greatly appreciated. Hubs was peckish, not as hungry as me and asked if he could get the kid's menu cheeseburger and fries for an upcharge. Nichelle, our friendly server, said, 'No problem, it's understood it's a smaller portion adults also like.' Great! It states that it comes with a free soda as part of the kid's menu, but Hubs had already ordered coffee, and I don't drink soda, so that was itemized along with the coffee charge, but we didn't mind because Hubs was getting exactly what he was craving. He proclaimed the cheeseburger and very soft, steamed bun as 'Yummy!' and the serving of fries 'just right.' All in all, MSKT was a delightful discovery and we would pop in again when returning to Lake Elsinore, which we will better plan for and make time to enjoy the shops along this quaint stretch. Cheers! "CC"

I got the mini vegetarian pizza, tiramisu and alfredo- it's their chicken alfredo, I ordered it without the chicken. The alfredo itself was ok. A somewhat small portion. The mini pizza is what you'd expect a mini pizza to look like-4 small pieces that look more like half pieces. The tiramisu, well, I'm not used to seeing tiramisu like theirs. I rated this place as 2 stars/ "could've been better" because I'm thinking if I ordered the same thing from Dominos-a mini/small pizza and their 4 cheese pasta- it would've tasted better, been a slightly bigger portion and have been cheaper. The pizza just tasted bland, plain. Nothing to really crave, savor or remember it by to bring me back. The tiramisu tasted more like cake, which is not good or bad, just an observation and in contrast to what I'm used to. When I usually have tiramisu, it's usually a rectangle and very moist. Almost like tres leches moist, but not as much. The tiramisu here didn't have that moistness-the ladyfingers didn't taste wet or soaked. But all the flavors-the coffee and cocoa-were there. It was enjoyable. The alfredo wasn't bad-but is alfredo ever bad? I think it was baked, which was coo. Just seems like for the price, it would've been a bigger portion.

Parking is conveniently located to the left, and we were lucky enough to be seated by the window with a stunning lakeside view. The menu has so many tempting options that it took us quite a while to decide. I ended up ordering the burnt ends with the sweet sauce and a side of mac & cheese. My husband ordered the pulled chicken breakfast with over-easy eggs, hash browns, and toast, plus a side of waffles. The burnt ends were incredible--moist, crispy, savory, and practically melted in my mouth. The mac & cheese was equally impressive. They use a special cheese sauce, and whatever their secret is, it works! My husband's pulled chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The waffles were perfectly prepared and served with fresh raspberries and blackberries. A special shoutout to our server, Kelly, who was friendly, attentive, and accommodating throughout our visit. She recommended the burnt ends, and it turned out to be the perfect choice. The prices are very reasonable for both the quality and portion sizes. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back to try more items from the menu.

My service tonight was exceptional. Whoever the manager/supervisor was deserves a raise. I forgot his name but he went above and beyond. It was Monday, June 15th. Around 6 PM. The people in front of me were very slow and ordering all different kinds of stuff. Salads with all different meats, etc... The manager could tell it was going to be awhile so he jumped right in and had both of my sandwiches made before the people in front of me could get their salads made. I was impressed that he took the initiative and had the foresight to tell there was going to be an issue before there was. I told the girl at the counter to tell her boss he was awesome when I left. And he made my sandwiches bomb.com too! Just how I wanted them. Fun fact, they had some good music playing and he saw me bobbing my head and started tapping the counter to the beat. Put me in a better mood. Overall great experience!

I'm embarrassed to say that I wasn't able to finish my meal. While it was really good there was simply so much for a person to eat by himself. My last bites of my burger were just the meat so I can admit that it didn't defeat me. Zucchini was fresh from the fryer so I took my time before eating them.

A large order of fries was $6.79 CRAZY prices. At that point, our total was already $37.97 before tax. I'm still shocked just thinking about it. As for the food, the burgers were underwhelming and not memorable at all. I've honestly made better-tasting burgers at home. At least I can say I tried it but I won't be coming back. Looking back, the lack of cars in the drive-thru and parking lot should've been a red flag. Overall, I don't think it's worth the money.

Unfortunately, the bathrooms were a completely different dining experience--and not one I would recommend. The condition of the restroom was absolutely horrendous. There were toilets that had not been flushed, paper all over the floor, and trash cans that were overflowing. It looked like the bathroom had been left unattended for quite some time. At one point, I honestly wondered if I had accidentally walked into a scene from Survivor: Restaurant Bathroom Edition. I understand that restaurants can get busy, and bathrooms can certainly get messy throughout the day. However, basic cleanliness and regular restroom checks are extremely important, especially in a restaurant where people are eating. A bathroom in that condition can really take away from an otherwise enjoyable dining experience. The frustrating part is that the food was genuinely good, so the restroom situation was especially disappointing. Red Robin has a lot going for it, but cleanliness should be part of the overall experience--not something customers have to brace themselves for before finding the restroom. Hopefully management takes this seriously and makes sure the bathrooms are checked and cleaned regularly. Great food deserves a clean place to enjoy it!
