The food was amazing as usual. Stephen was my server and he was one of the best servers I've ever had, both at CB and at other restaurants. He just went above and beyond, was really attentive, anticipated our drink refills, and he was super nice and had a very friendly vibe. Next time you're eating at Coal Bunker, ask for Stephen as your server!

I made the drive specifically for the highly recommended BBQ, but they were out of tri-tip. No big deal, so I ordered the brisket then about 20 minutes later found out they'd run out of that too. Huge disappointment, but there were some large parties ahead of us, so I get it (I only wish I hadn't waited 20+ mins to find out). I ended up with the spicy chicken sandwich, which had good flavor, but I drove there for BBQ and unfortunately came up short. I'll make the trip back eventually and hopefully get to try what I came for, then adjust my rating accordingly. To their credit, they gave us peach cobbler for the trouble. I'm not a dessert guy and would've never ordered it, but it was legit. I ate some then took it home, threw some vanilla ice cream on it, and let the kids handle the rest.

Solid 4.5 stars My…read morewife, mother-in-law, and I ran into the folks from The Parlor at Fallbrook Winery. They were serving up Wagyu smash burgers, hotdogs, and chili. Their pop-up restaurant moves around to various venues, like wineries and breweries. The service was very good, and Chef Taylor (owner) and his staff were super friendly and open to my feedback. We tried the Old Yeller ($14), a Wagyu beef hotdog served with chips and a sweet pickle. We also tried a bowl of their Wagyu Homestead Chili ($12), topped with cheddar cheese and jalapeños. Their menu primarily focuses on Wagyu burgers, but we had eaten a large breakfast, so we just wanted to try something smaller. I enjoyed pairing the chili on my chips with the red wines we were tasting. We enjoyed everything we tried, and I would love to check them out again to try a burger. I recommend that you follow them on IG ("eatparlor") to see where they'll be popping up next.

Stopped in coming home from the mountains- not out this way usually. Very glad I did!…read more Got the 1/2 brisket, 1/2 pork ribs dinner with mac n cheese sides and baked beans. Brisket was full of flavor and very tender! Same with ribs. Very happy! Baked beans were a little sweet and a little spicy - would get again. Mac N Cheese was pretty good - I will try a new side next time. Maybe coleslaw? The only bummer was the side of bread- there are so many good rolls out there, slightly disappointing, but not the end of the world. Overall the meat and barbecue sauce was so good, I will def be back to eat!!! Please give this place a try. (inside restaurant is pretty small, but I noticed they have a back patio?) I got mine to-go, so not 100% sure of layout of restaurant.

I bought two dinners last night. They were so bad.‍. The chicken was breaded and small like chicken McNuggets, not appetizing. Their salad was okay. My husband had the gyro plate. He said the meat was tasteless. We paid a lot of money for these two dinners. We eat some of the food, but most went out in the trash it was so bad. We are not coming back. Come on Fallbrook! You can do better than this. Make fresh tasty food or get out of the business!

You absolutely must try the Mop Up Pizza, the Mac Burger, and the bacon appetizer--they're all outstanding. Our daughter's rehearsal dinner was held here, and it exceeded every expectation. The staff went above and beyond, creating personalized menus for our reserved tables that featured the bride and groom's names and their rehearsal dinner date. It was such a thoughtful and elegant touch. The dinner selections were chosen by the groom's parents, who generously hosted the evening, and the restaurant thoughtfully omitted prices from the menus so guests could simply relax and order without any concern. It added a level of class and sophistication that we truly appreciated. We could not have asked for a more memorable and personalized evening for our daughter and future son-in-law. The food was exceptional, the service was impeccable, and our guests are still talking about how wonderful everything was. Highly recommend for a special event--or any occasion!
