The Grand Oak Steakhouse & Bar

There are 2 rooms, each with a different vibe. Bistro/​bar with live bands and quiet formal dining room with piano.
The food in the dining room was amazing. Everything was fresh, the restaurant is on the property of a lavender farm and resort. Besides lavender infused everything (cocktails, balsamic, crème brûlée), they use their own olives for the olive oil, honey from their own bees, citrus from their own trees. They also list several local farms that they source the rest of the produce from. This is farm to table eating, without the pretentiousness and price of LA. $ 35 per person for 3 courses, pick any starter, entrée, and dessert from the menu. Entrees by themselves were $ 15 – 25.
The fruit and nut salad was delightful, greens were in perfect condition, dried cranberries, fresh apple, walnuts, and citrus dressing as a great compliment. Produce is the star here, but the meat was good too. We ordered the jidori chicken and beef burgoine. Complimentary bread basket when we asked with two butters– herb and honey.
Free champagne or dessert if you’re celebrating an anniversary, and it’s a perfect restaurant for one– quiet, romantic, removed from the hustle and bustle.
Lunch in the bistro room was also good– garlic rosemary fries are their specialty. Lunch special of soup and grilled cheese for $ 6. Pulled pork sandwich was average, I’d go for a burger next time. Veggies on the club sandwich looked high quality.
From 3−5pm they only serve burgers and fries, but this is also happy hour– $ 6 for lavender infused mojitos, martinis, margaritas, or champagne.

This was a welcome addition to the local area when it came back. Quality, organic food served at a higher level you don’t normally find in the area. They are transitioning now, hopefully not too far from what was so enjoyed.
Lisa, the restaurant manager, goes ABOVE and BEYOND every time we come in to make sure we have great food and service. If she is there on the day you come in, you are sure to have a pleasurable experience.

To celebrate my father in law’s birthday so we went. I’ve been to grand oak steak house several times but this is time I was soooo happy with the service n food we had I’m giving them 5stars.
Elizabeth was our server and Anthony (?)If I remember right… They were very professional, happy happy!!! Made us feel happy n welcomed. And restaurant manager Lisa Coglietti came over to our table and asked how was everything, to make sure if we are doing awesome possum. Of course we do n did! n always love her smile!
Three of us got ribeye steak. My father in law ordered French fries instead of mashed potatoes. He is picky eater so he didn’t want the Rosemary or garlic just salt. And every restaurant he goes he asks salt shaker cuz nobody salt them right. But this time he didn’t need at all! I was surprise. And my veggies were seasoned perfectly as well! Steaks… don’t have to say. Two thumbs up! My big toes too? If I could? Love love love. That’s why I keep going back! I don’t have to go to Ruth Chris! So happy n glad steak house like Grand Oak is in near my house.
My mother in law ordered lamb chop. So glad they had them. Didn’t used to. Thanks Chef. Adrian! I wish I took a picture of her plate. It was so pretty n looked delicious. She loved it. She didn’t want to shared. Lol Oooo she let me try Mint Gast~~~ dip! In English. It was so good! Perfect with lamb. Yum!
We were so full we couldn’t order desserts. I always get cream brûlée when I’m there. I miss it!!! We r already planing to go have Sunday brunch I can’t wait to have my cream brûlée then!!!
Wait for me Grand Oak. ;)

5 STAR LUXURY DINNER! Our friend recommended this place to us when we moved here. My husband and I love fancy restaurants and take turns picking places for date night. It was my date night pick and I brought him here. We did a little bit of gambling since we arrived early. We loved the fact it was in the casino but a bit worried the restaurant would be smoky because of the casino. This was not the case! It was not smoky at all.
This was one of the BEST steaks we’ve had in the Temecula area. Our favorites are Donavan’s and Ruth Chris. This is now on our favorite list!
Remember to take the Rib Eye Bone home to your Doggies!

Its nice. Been a few times kinda pricey. Place was prob really nice when it first opened which im thinking was 50’s. Grounds around the rooms have been let go. Festivals are getting really expensive. Paid 70.00 $ for 2 beer samplers and 2 sausage sandwhiches at beer n sausage fest. The resturant is good but not somewhere i think of going much.
