We had dinner at Swing Inn cafe & BBQ in Temecula and it went beyond and exceeded our…read moreexpectations--hands down the best BBQ we've ever had. Our server Andy--who is also the manager--took amazing care of us from start to finish. The service was friendly, attentive, and perfectly timed. Andy recommended the sausages as an appetizer, and let me tell you... we're still talking about how delicious they were. And the BBQ was even better: the brisket and burnt ends were incredibly tender--soft and practically falling apart, with tons of flavor. Big thank you to Andy for the great service and for making the trip totally worth it. We'll definitely be back!

Dear diary, Made a…read moretrip here to see uncle Hank and decided to grab some food because we were in line for 3 hours. The service was fast even though there were many customers there that day. The place was lively. We got the half pound smoked brisket and french dip with a beer and a cocktail. The food was delicious and on point. However there was a bug on my pineapple that was a decor for my drink which was disappointing to say the least. There was limited parking especially with all the breaking bad fans but I'm sure it's different on a regular day.

Service was great, and the food was finger-licking GOOD I'm honestly shocked if I ever have leftovers! It's always a great time at Phil's never disappoints Just a heads up: make sure you give yourself plenty of time because it's ALWAYS busy! Expect lines out the door, but trust me... it's worth it

Their brisket plate is unreal--juicy, slow-smoked brisket with a peppery rub, drizzled with tangy house-made BBQ sauce, and paired with creamy coleslaw. Pure smoky perfection in every bite! The staff are super friendly and they recommended a killer IPA that took my meal to the next level. Totally chill vibe where the whole family is welcome.

The tvs in the bar are small and quite old, making it less than ideal to watch a sporting event. They have a great draft beer selection and a few $5 drink specials. Theres plenty of indoor and outdoor seating so we were able to get sat immediately. Our server rushed us for no reason, asking if we wanted boxes just several minutes after we got our plates. The food quality is what I expected from a dive bar kitchen, though it did come out quickly which was nice. Wings were quite small and poor quality chicken. The nachos were massive with a load of brisket, could easily share with a few people. The brisket quesadilla was the best of what we ordered, with a nicely grilled tortilla and was delicious dipped in the sour cream and guacamole.

Our server was never to be found.....Until I wrote this....she suddenly showed up. Don't mean to be cranky, but, dude, it's not that busy. (I'm think my blood sugar is low.). The corn on the cob was alright, my husband makes it better at home. It was just warm, just above cold, and the butter wasn't even melty. The ribs were delicious, they were succulent and fell off the bone. Fricken bomb. Don't mean to sound cranky, but everything is so expensive,just wish I would have 'mmmmmm'd' through it. I didn't.

She was attentive without being overbearing all while she was training someone new. The food was decent. I wouldn't say anything special. I got the Mac and cheese with pulled pork. My husband got the tri tip sandwich with onion rings. Apparently the onion rings were $3 extra charge and there was only 7 on the plate. Not impressed. We also got a beer and a Michelada. My husband asked for more michelada mix because it looked like they only out a drop in there. The bill came out to $90 and I don't think the food was worth that much honestly. I'd be back, but mostly for beers. Bonus points for the reusable Ball cups!

The sliders were decent but did not live up to the price in either taster or portion. The baked beans lacked flavor and seemed watered down. Speaking of watered down, the fountain drinks were definitely watered down... with some remnants of possible hops or some other type of aftertaste. The service was okay because the gentleman working seemed nice but he appeared to be the only waiter in the whole place and was definitely overwhelmed. The place was wide open and pretty much all outdoors so it's cool for a bar but not great for a dinner date. All of this gave me the impression Steinerhaus would be better suited as a bar serving bar food. If those are your expectations you'll probably be okay. If you're looking for a great bbq place to have a date night, this ain't it.

I'm visiting for the second time, and I remembered this place having some of the best meat I've…read moreever had at a KBBQ restaurant. The cuts were high quality and not overloaded with fat. For some reason, I just never made it back here; probably because the Promenade area isn't usually along our route. Coming here tonight genuinely brightened my day. I had just finished a long shift and a commute, and all I wanted was a good, comforting meal. My nutritionist told me yesterday need to significantly increase my protein intake to help reduce muscle loss related to my autoimmune thyroid condition. KBBQ seemed like the perfect choice; lots of protein without a lot of unnecessary junk. On my way home, I stopped at two other KBBQ restaurants. Apparently, I was unaware of the unspoken rule that some places don't serve parties of one on weekends. One restaurant even had me wait 25 minutes before telling me they wouldn't seat a solo diner during the weekend. Unfortunately, my husband is currently deployed, so being a party of one isn't exactly a choice for me right now! Normally, dining alone doesn't bother me at all, but today it got to me. I was exhausted and simply wanted a comforting meal. Being turned away after waiting 25 minutes just because I by myself was the last thing I needed. When I called this restaurant, the owner or manager immediately answered and was incredibly friendly. He explained that they offer entrée and plate options for guests who aren't doing the all-you-can-eat menu. I honestly don't understand why more restaurants don't offer this. I know the food industry is competitive and businesses have to make money, but having options for solo diners makes such a difference. When I arrived, I received wonderful service right away, and there was no wait, but they were full. The owner or manager recognized me as the person who had called earlier and went out of his way to make me feel welcome since we found out we're from the same area. He even added a little surprise to my order simply out of kindness. The entire staff was friendly, professional, and attentive. In an area with no shortage of restaurants, I want to give this place the credit it deserves, not only for the excellent food, but for the heart behind the business. Today, I'm especially grateful for the kindness and generosity shown to me. You never know what someone may be going through, and a simple act of thoughtfulness can make a bigger impact than you realize. His kindness truly lifted my spirits after a long and difficult day. I believe this is a small family-owned business, and they absolutely deserve the support of the community. Great food is easy to find; genuine hospitality is much harder to come by. I'll definitely be back!

(cheap lunch specials at both locations) Food (5/5) - took some coworkers here for a work lunch and even just the lowest tier menu was great in price and taste. Great sides like corn cheese and fried chicken, and great quality meats like the beef belly and flavorful bulgogi had us eating until we gained a few extra pounds. need to come back for the premium menus. service (5/5) - i guess they usually have a tablet system to order, but it wasn't working today so they had servers taking orders. Didn't make a difference as our server was great and on top of new orders for us. ambiance (5/5) well ventilated, spacious and comfortable seating, music not too loud, plenty of parking in a big plaza, and a super sleek and modern interior design made for a very enjoyable dining experience here.

Added myself to the waitlist. Waited 20-25 minutes. Got called up only for them to tell me that the don't serve solo diners on weekends. Sorry, I have no choice but to be solo bc my husband is deployed. That was irksome and so inconvenient considering the time wasted waiting for nothing. Silver lining, and the real reason I am posting...as I was walking out, a man heard me get rejected for dining and the guy went after me to ask if I wanted to sit with him and his group. I just wanted to thank him for his kindness and I apologize if I walked away quickly. I was a bit embarrassed waiting that long only to be denied service. Thank you sir, you are proof that there are still good people in the world. You made an embarrassing ordeal, a moment to be grateful for. I'm blessed to encounter good people. God Bless you and your heart. Same to your group, whether it was friends or family.
