    Wow! What a nice, family run business. I added a star for Julianna! Great service with a smile. She is an asset to the business. Onto the food. They have a special. Two slices with one topping and a canned soda for $8.95. It's a great deal and available all day, not just at lunchtime like most places. The slices are large and we're piping hot. Hubby said he liked the pizza and would order it again. I had the meatball sub. This is NOT a small sandwich! It is well worth the $11.50. The meatballs are very tender and tasty. Julianna shared that they are homemade! The sauce was also good and the bread was perfectly toasted. It was topped with plenty of cheese. It had that cheese pull that makes a meatball sub even better. The soda cooler keeps the drinks nice and cold. So glad this place popped up on Yelp!

    Large meatball and Italian sausage pizza
    Jeff S.

    Never disappoints! Took my fiancé and picked up a medium pizza with meatballs and sausage (made in house) and garlic cheese bread. Gino was at home so his son did the honors. Everything was smooth and spectacular as always. They added more seating inside and out to accommodate their customers. I'm always happy, and the son is a chip off the block. Pizza was cooked perfectly and the garlic cheese bread will be a go to from now on. Do yourself a favor and visit and get the best pizza around. Leave your egos and nonsense at home! Bravo Ginos

    Vegan cheese pizza with Jalapeños
    Laura A.

    Shout out to Uncle Gino's. I love that they have a vegan option on their menu. :) I ordered the vegan cheese pizza with jalapeños. It was tasty. We also ordered a cheese pizza. My husband said it was a great New York style pizza. Give it a try.

    Vegan garlic knots
    Yvonne G.

    I was so excited to find amazing vegan options at Uncle Gino's, and they did NOT disappoint! The vegan garlic knots were soft, fluffy, and packed with garlicky goodness. Perfectly seasoned and seriously addictive -- I could've ordered another batch! The vegan pizza was outstanding. The crust was crispy on the outside and soft inside, and the vegan cheese melted beautifully. Every bite was flavorful and satisfying without feeling heavy. And the vegan meatball sandwich was next level. The meatballs had great texture and seasoning, and the sauce tasted rich and homemade. Total comfort food -- but completely plant-based! Whether you're vegan or just trying something different, Uncle Gino's proves you don't have to sacrifice taste. Definitely coming back for more!

    Completely burnt vegan cheese that should have been regular
    Heather S.

    We've been going here since we moved to Temecula a few years ago and usually have a great experience with takeout but tonight was a massive exception. My husband ordered a cheese pizza with vegan pepperoni for takeout. When he went to pick it up he saw that they had added jalapeños across the whole thing. They had told us on the phone that they only had a little vegan pepperoni left so to make up for the mistake they made a cheese pizza. Unfortunately they not only used vegan cheese when we ordered regular, but also it was completely burnt. My husband didn't realize it until he was home and when he tried to call back about the issue the person on the phone was not only unapologetic, but insisted they had made two pizzas, we should just take the jalapeños off, and that this is just how vegan cheese cooked. Anyone who has a kid knows this isn't an option and also even though we didn't order vegan cheese, we've had it on pizzas other places and here and it's NEVER looked like this. Just look at other photos people have posted here. He then hung up on my husband without resolution. Honestly such a bad experience I would never recommend this place to anyone.

    Before hitting the oven. Our calzone was SUPER STUFFED.

    Uncle Gino's makes the best pizza and calzones. My family and I love their food. The owner and family are awesome people.

    Vegan meatball calzone
    Lauren L.

    Wow!!! Ok so we just so happened to come across this place because gentle grill was closed and we were looking for vegan food while we are in town! My husband says VEGAN PIZZA!!! So obviously we had to try! Everything is SOOOOO GOOD!!! We got a pizza with vegan pepperoni and sausage ! It's amazing! We also got a vegan meatball calzone that is so freaking HUGE and delicious ! We also got vegan spaghetti with meatballs for our kids and they loved it!! The nice guy working/possible owner also hooked us up with some of the best garlic bread I've ever had !!! Sad that we discovered this place on our way back home! An absolute must try if you're vegan or otherwise

    Meatball sandwich (vegan)
    Lee S.

    Vegan? Well....YES!!! I was surprised to find that they have Vegan pizza, sandwiches and spaghetti. I ordered the vegan meatball sandwich & spaghetti. It was ABSOLUTELY delicious!!! Honestly, it tasted almost identical to not being Vegan it was that good! Seriously, the Spaghetti was incredible along with the meatball sandwich (both vegan). We also tried the cheesecake & chocolate croissant (both vegan), and both were very good also! The owners daughters are both Vegan (well one, 100% of the time lol), so they know about the Vegan Diet.

Both burritos were fresh, colorful and packed with flavor. Every bite had the perfect crunch from the crisp vegetables, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. The sauces were served on the side, letting us customize each bite, and they complemented the flavors without overpowering them. The decor itself had a freshness about it like the food they served with bright inviting colors. What we appreciated the most was how satisfying the meal was. We left feeling full, refreshed and energized instead of weighed down.if you're looking for a healthy meal that does not sacrifice flavor, Toss'd is definitely worth checking out.

    I've never written a review for a place I haven't personally been to... but Oscar's Brewing Company…read moresomehow earned one anyway. 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.
