    Thom Kha Gai
    Rosanna S.

    My Boyfriend Got Take out for Me Because I Was at The Hospital Over Here At Rancho Springs. I Was Craving Thai Food And Decided To Order Here Everything Looked Great And Delicious. I Ordered Thom Kha Gai Spice Level 6 it Was Perfectly Spiced. Got Pad See Lew Shrimp And Beef. Sweet and Nice. Got Combonation Fried Rice. That Was Yummy. Everything Came Warm And Hot. Would Love To Come Back And Eat Indoors One Day Soon. The Service Was Ok Just Took Abit Cause it Was Launch Time. Boyfriend Said Ambiance Was Nice And Chill.

    The beef sate is great. Every Thai restaurant has some variation of the Original Thai BBQ restaurant. For the area, the prices were reasonable and the portion sizes were good. Beef sate was great and there are 6 bbq sticks! Drunken noodle could have used a little more seasoning, but it was still tasty. Tom yum khai was ok. I do prefer the coconut version because it rounds out the 5 flavors, but I had to eat in agreement with who I was eating with. Overall it was a solid 4.

    Came back here after my first visit. Delicious food, and always great service. As a vegetarian I felt they have some good options for me. I usually get Tofu Spring roll. I do wish it came with a little spice options for sauce, but overall delicious.

    So far this is the best Thai food place I have been to in Murrieta. The pad see ew is delicious the ingredients are so fresh. I highly recommend this Thai food place.

    Pickled veggies and hot sauce

    Came here based on the reviews and I have never been so disappointed in my fellow Yelpies before! This is NOT 100% fully authentic Thai, it's more Asian fusion, IMHO. First of all the spring rolls were flavorless and mushy, MINE HAD A HAIR INSIDE! The calamari was soggy with a bad fishy taste, the shrimp pad Thai was the best out of everything, but came with 6 measly shrimp on top. The chicken curry was JAPANESE curry. How do I know? Because I'm Japanese. It was a joke and it didn't have coconut milk in it as stated in the description. This was beyond insulting. Not sure if the patrons who frequent here are not knowledgeable on the differences between Asian cuisine, but this was a miss the mark by many miles. The best thing we ordered was the Thai iced coffees, service was ok, they do offer military discount which I missed because I already paid. Anyway, 2 coffees, 3 apps and 2 entrees was pushing $100 after tip for lunch for two, way too expensive to return.

    This is a lil piece of The Original Thai BBQ - such a lucky find after hitting up Murrieta Hot Springs! It's a quiet, quaint spot in a big mini mart filled with other shops, like a boba place & even a place that sells Dole whip. Staff were so very kind, friendly, & efficient here, & the food was delicious! So much so that, after eating, we each decided to buy more food to bring home for dinner! We sampled a lot of food, & everything was on point... very reminiscent of The OG Thai BBQ - papaya salad, beef sate, one of the Tom Yum soups, fried sole fish with sauce on the side, green chicken curry, to name a few. They even had some menu items that were new to us, and they did not disappoint. I'd definitely return next time I'm in the area.

    Very authentic space and service. I like the big bright feeling inside and space between seatings. It is def a casual spot so no need to dress up significantly! Food wise it is portioned well that you can possibly take home left overs. Taste wise it is pretty authentic except for spice level! My friend ordered spice level 10 out of 10 which server even gasped! When tasting it I felt it was def not 10. Felt like 7. To her was like 2. Authentic Thai spice is mighty king so I was surprise the 10 was not truly a 10. It is a come back restaurant for sure!!!

    Mongolian Beef with shrimp
    Mike G.

    OMG GUYS!!! Im not joking when i tell you how good there food is. Trust me when i tell you my go to when i eat here is there shrimp fried rice and mongolian beef. Im going to start off on there mongolian beef. It is so so so so so so good. The meat is so soft when you eat it (pause haha) and the sauce taste sweet. Get white rice and pour a little of the sauce on the rice and it taste so good. You have a option to add other items with the dish but me i always add shrimp. There shrimps are so big and delicious. The shrimp frid rice is so good too. Fresh and hot when they serve it to you. I admit the prices are a little pricey but i promise you the food is well worth it with great portions. I still need to try other dishes. Also pad thai is really good as well. Please try this place out. If you love thai food, i promise you that you and your family will love it! Thank you Thai BBQ

    Eddy's Drunken Noodles (July 2025)
    Jayson M.

    What a hidden gem in Murrieta! There seems to be many Thai restaurants in the area but this place probably takes the top spot for me. They hit the mark each time for food quality and customer service. So far, we've tried Eddy's Drunken Noodle, Chicken Yellow Curry, Beef Panang, Calamari, Fried Wontons, and the Chicken Sate. The chicken sate is unbelievable and the portions are extremely generous. The restaurants is always clean and can get pretty busy! If you're ever in the area, add this to place to your list.

    Chicken Sate
    Mike G.

    Ordered Chicken Sate with fried rice, Beef Broccoli and Beef Pad See Ew. Everything was good, the fried rice is a bit different kinda looks like Spanish red rice. Pad Sew Ew came out a little different, noodles were on the lighter side of color than what I normally use to but definitely a great dish. Totally recommend this location for Thai food. The customer service here is also great, we were greeted and seated right away.. Will be back!

    Chicken Sate
    Ricardo M.

    We love Thai BBQ! It's our go-to for delivery when we don't feel like cooking. The food is very tasty and consistent every time. Our go-tos are the Pad see lew and chicken sate. Those dishes are always very good. This time we also decided to try one new dish, the drunken noodles, and it was a little too peppery in flavor for our taste. However overall Thai BBQ is a great choice for some good food. We highly recommend and will continue to be regulars!

    Mo M.

    Amazing amazing and delicious food, my new favorite Thai spot in Murrieta. The cashier was so nice and so helpful and I love the art pieces and the fish aquarium and the place is really clean and very organised.

    Mango and sticky rice
    Christina C.

    Nice, quaint Thai restaurant. Service is fast and friendly. Everything we ordered was delicious. The BBQ chicken was awesome! The mango and sticky rice was a perfect ending to the meal. I loved the calamari and chicken wing appetizers. Prices are decent and the portion sizes are generous. Arroy mak! Krab Kuhn ka!

I ordered the loaded brisket fries, 1 lb or moist brisket, 1/2 lb or burnt ends. The loaded fries were awesome and fresh crispy fries with 3 nice pieces of moist brisket on top. Highly recommend Burnt ends - my all time favorite and hard to get at a true BBQ place as they go fast as true burnt ends are limited. These did not disappoint and were spot on. Brisket - I like moist was real real tender and had a great flavor. We also had a side of the brisket baked beans and those babies were amazing. The have not a spicy and a regular BBQ sauce and I loved the spicy for sure. The regular is spot as as well and I just prefer spicy.

I wasn't aware during my visit that I was caught in the crossfire. Everything at this location tastes nasty. Let's just say Mr. Tendernism vouched for this place before his termination; well, that says a lot about his overall judgment on food. 100% forget anything about Mr. Tendernism and his sad story, because he clearly doesn't know anything about anything if he was guiding people this way. I remember an episode of the LATRYGUY also going to this destination, and even he vouched for this nonsense. Can't trust that fool either. The mac and cheese was some weird variation. The baked beans didn't really taste like baked beans. The meat was overly peppered. They for odd reasons, don't serve potato salad. Change that mac and cheese. Change your seasoning, or at least try. Include Potato Salad. And maybe your business will survive whatever it is going through. Sorry but facts.

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!

The menu selection showed a level of sophistication that is refreshing to behold. If you don't go here you are cheating yourself. Bravo Chef and staff of the Grille. Thank you

    Sunday, 6-23-2024: So sorry for another delayed review. Reservations are highly recommended. I'm…read morea member of their VIP club so I receive emails of ongoing specials & events like wine pairings & rare culinary creations. Anyhow, I made reservations for our family of five. Our daughter, son-in-law, grandson, my husband and I came for another divine dining experience. We were seated right away as it wasn't too crowded. We noticed they rearranged the tables and seating. It's still so cozy and pristine with low lighting giving off an intimate vibe. The food was amazing as usual and it came out quickly! Never a bad meal here. Unfortunately, one star off for the service. We have come to expect the high caliber of service offered from Robin & Francesca from past visits. Our server Jessica was nice enough but not very attentive. We had to keep asking for our drinks to be refilled although it was very obvious that our glasses were empty. And there weren't a lot of people there. So our server really missed the mark. Thankfully, the food is consistently outstanding and mediocre service won't dissuade us from returning.

    I LOVE me some Phil's BBQ!!! Been a fan for years!…read more I used to drive all the way from Palm Springs to San Diego just to get my fix at least once a year before I made the move to Los Angeles So when I found out they opened a location in Temecula, you already know I had to pull up for some ribs!!! 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

    That corn bread be hitting!!!…read more Oh my gosh. I am obsessed with the cornbread at Phil's BBQ. It is by far the best cornbread I have ever had! I didn't know I liked cornbread before Phil's LOL now I know that I like it, just only like it at Phil's lol My husband also loves the cornbread. The maple butter is aaaaaaaamazing on top too! I could eat this all day. We brought the leftovers home and my husband and I were fighting over the last piece! I'm not even joking lol That being said, I also ordered some cheese fries. I also ordered the giant pretzel with cheese. The pretzel wasn't bad. The cheese that came with it was fire. I used that cheese and poured it on my fries to make that better. It was bomb! I did eat some of the pretzel, it was soft on the inside and warm. I would order the cheese fries again, but do the cheese sauce from the pretzel on it instead of grated cheese. My husband ordered one of the rib combos and he enjoyed the ribs. He didn't care for the macaroni salad much though. We both wish that Phil's BBQ had a macaroni and cheese. They really need to add it to the menu. That as a side, would be much better! Service was fine. You walk up to order and go up to get your food, when it's done.

    I ordered Uber eats from this place when I was on a work trip and it came really really fast and…read morethe order was 100% accurate and the food was pretty good. I ordered a lunch combo plate and it was really good value for the money. There was enough food for about six people in this one box and I ordered the scallops and the Kahlúa pork. The scallops were good, although there was a lot of breading for a pretty small scallop. The Kalua pork was good, but I felt like it made me needed some barbecue sauce which I requested, but I'm not sure if they don't have it at that restaurant overall the food was really yummy and I also loved the rice and the Mac salad. I'm not able to touch on the ambience of the actual restaurant because I got food delivered however I was really impressed with the overall service of how quickly this was prepared and delivered to me.

    I was really excited to try Big Islands in Murrieta because we were craving some island flavors,…read morebut unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing. We ordered the teriyaki chicken, and sadly, it was very bland with no real flavor. The garlic shrimp I got was also dry and had no sauce, which made it hard to enjoy. Our kids didn't really want to eat their meals either, which was a bummer because we had high hopes for a fun, flavorful family dinner. The location is a bit awkward, tucked in a corner and across the street from the main entrance, and the cleanliness of the restaurant could definitely be improved. I'm sad to say that the food quality just wasn't up to our standards, and unfortunately, we won't be returning. I hope the restaurant can take this feedback and make some improvements because the concept and menu have a lot of potential.
