The Goat & Vine

Absolutely loved this place for a date night… Exceptional service and delicious food! The drinks were so perfect! I have nothing bad to say about this place… On the Unilocal app it says they accept reservations but when I called they said they do not… So I just want to clarify that… I loved the breadsticks they were super fresh and doughy. My husband hates goat cheese but this restaurant totally changed his idea about it.

I went to the Goat & Vine finally. The level of service makes you forget about the parking struggle. The staff and service is at one of the highest levels in Town.
The food is really good! Fresh ingredients and you can tell first bite. Try the meatball advertiser with cheese and garlic bread.
All of the pizzas are good!
I would recommend it to anyone.

The food and service here was just incredible! I had a nice glass of sangria, a salad and a pizza. One of my favorite CA meals the whole week!

Amazing! They import their flour from Italy… so the pizza crust is authentic! The salads were fresh, organic and local. Wine selection was good too!
We had such a fun time here on a rainy Sunday :)

Had such a great experience here. Our bartender/​server was great (you can see her in the background of the picture) the food was delicious! My friend and I each had a different sandwich she had a Hatch chili and I hand the pulled pork. If that Hatch chili is not on your permanent menu It needs to be!

A place I will return to. Everything was so fresh. You could smell it the second you walked in.
Hummus platter… so filling and a lot of it.
Pizza — goat cheese — portions are so large I would recommend sharing.
Salads…incredible! So fresh and full of flavor

It’s like someone crawled into my head where I didn’t even know my favorite recipes could ever exist and turned them into a menu ! The food is phenomenal. The décor is right on point ! The bread tastes like it was made by a magician ! I would seriously pay just to eat someone’s left over pizza crust here! Pick anything ! You can’t go wrong !

Today is our third visit in as many weeks which hopefully means that we really, really enjoy the food here. The appetizers are delicious, especially ‘Mother’s Meatballs;’ they are tasty, hot, cheesy, and saucy. The salads are very generous, and we’ve split one on each visit.
The pizzas are Amazing, the toppings are fresh and flavorful. The whole meal is wonderful and I cannot wait until our next visit.

What a gold mine! Great service, Great food and wine:) Nathan stopped by to talk shop about wine:) amazing my hero:) and Brad was awesome, the charcuterie was paired with all the wine:)

Decided to stop in for lunch based on the Unilocal reviews and also because of the photos of the restaurant décor. So happy we did! Charming and stylish industrial/​rustic design makes it a hip place to enjoy time with friends.
Food was incredible! I ordered the Hatch Honey chicken sandwich. It was soo amazing! Big portions with a side of kettle chips. My sister ordered the pesto chicken sandwich which was also very yummy.
I ordered the house sangria based on the servers recommendation. She told me it was a favorite and that the restaurant was well known for their sangria. I wasn’t too impressed. It was missing something! Eh! I wouldn’t order the sangria again.
However, looking forward to coming back next time I’m in town.

The best joint in Old Town great atmosphere and craft brews
Food is fantastic
I highly recommend

The BEST Hatch chili honey chicken sandwich! Its to die for. Awesome, fun, ambiance in here. I will definitely coming back!

We came to this place because my fiancé and I had a great time back in October. There was no line outside or anything so when I asked the hostess how long it would be to accommodate a party of six, I was shocked to find out it would be over two hours.
Her explanation for the «over two hour wait» was that there was only one table that could fit six people. I clearly say at least two areas that had two separate tables that could have been pushed together to make room for us.
I just can’t believe that there wasn’t a better effort to accommodate a bigger party, which wasn’t even that big! You fail hostess lady. End of.

OMG this place is exceptional. My family and I were visiting temecula for a weekend getaway. We were on a hunt to find great food after a morning of shopping and walking around. Thanks to my trusty Unilocal app. This place popped up and BEHOLD! I decided to try it out and I’m so glad I did.
It is is family owned. Service was superior. There was a bit of a wait but we weren’t waiting too long. That was ok because we were able to meet the owners’ parents while waiting and they were super nice and quickly gave us some suggestions of their best pizzas. We were glad we went with their recommendations. Talk about satisfaction. We ordered the Mediterranean chicken pizza and the Thailand pizza. The Mediterranean chicken pizza was cooked to perfection. It has alot of garlic, onions, tomatoes, and muchrooms just the way I like it. But my favorite was the Thailand pizza. OMG my taste buds were screaming for more. Literally! You can taste the spicy tangy flavor. Trust me you will be wanting seconds. Also, don’t forget to order their watermelon sangria. It’s superb.
Overall, everything about this place exceeded my expectations from the service to the ambiance to the food. Next time I’m in Temecula, I will make it a point to stop by here for their delicious pizzas and try other items on their menu. So please do yourself a favor and check it out. You won’t be disappointed.

i, 100%, cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. there was a bit of a wait for lunch on a saturday, but not bad by any means. we sat at the bar and had the goat pizza (with a WHOLE clove of roasted garlic) and the favorite turkey sammie. i have NEVER in my life had a turkey sandwich like THIS ONE. it is cravable, for sure! the bf and i agreed that every time we make it to temecula this WILL be a stop. and we may even make the drive from lb to temecula just for this.
the seasonal sangria was watermelon and was DELICIOUS. the staff is totally knowledgeable, totally efficient and incredibly welcoming. we considered finishing lunch, walking around the farmer’s market and going back for dinner. not a joke. try this place. you can’t be disappointed.

This place is phenomenal! That’s why they get my 5 star approval
My boyfriend and I stopped through Temecula from out of town and luckily happened across this place. Over our entire week of traveling in Cali, this place stood out the most! The atmosphere was very welcoming and charming-​located in the picturesque old town area of Temecula. The staff was quite friendly and jovial. Besides a pretty location and a pretty awesome wait staff, the food was tremendous as well! We shared the Favorite Turkey sandwich. My boyfriend-​who is a sandwich junkie-​said that it was one of the best sandwiches he had ever had and that he would be so sad he couldn’t get it again soon! Trust me, that’s saying something. We also split the hummus platter, which was also very abundant and yummy! If we are ever in old town Temecula again, we will of course be stopping by the Goat and Vine again. Highly recommend!

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Start off with the breadsticks with homemade marinara. Soooooo delicious. My mouth is watering just thinking about them.
If you’re looking for a savory pizza the lime carnitas pizza will be your best bet.
However, our personal favorite was the Thailand pizza. It was fresh, flavorful, and had the right amount of kick if you like spice.
The pizzas are a good size so be hungry!!!
Thank you for a fabulous time Goat and Vine!

Do yourself a favor and check this place out! Farm to Table food and everything I have tasted so far is delicious! This was my first time there so I tried other peoples food at our table! lol
The atmosphere is super cool and trendy. Its a bit loud in there so don’t go there with the intention to have a calm, quiet conversation, go there to have fun, socialize and laugh. (and drink…) They do serve alcohol. Its on the back side of Old Town (where the old Café Bravo was, right on the corner)
We have the Goat and Vine salad and meatball pizza, both were 5 stars in my opinion. Once of us exchanged the goat cheese for feta and they accommodated without question! Very good customer service as well.

Before I start my review I just want to say: BRAVO STAFF BRAVO!!! This was my first time here and I couldn’t believe how nice/​friendly all the staff were. Like, is there something in the Old Town water? If so, it needs to be bottled up and given to some other restaurants to improve their service.
So like I mentioned, this was my first visit to Goat and Vine.
As soon as you enter you see these gorgeous lightbulbs hanging above the bar. Whenever I looked at them I just kept thinking how much I want them in my room! Behind the bar there is a nice mural/​painting of two goats (right?). It’s beautiful and reminds me of a tapestry. From what I saw, the restaurant is rather small, but it’s very cozy! The atmosphere was one thing that I absolutely loved.
Their menu was another. We (4) shared the breadsticks and those were delicious! Perfect starter. For my meal I chose the Purist pizza with pepperoni. My oh my was it a beauty! And my friend’s pizzas were also beautiful. And they tasted as good as they looked. I’m not a big crust person, but wow. I couldn’t stop eating it. It was nice, soft, chewy, and fresh! The cheese stretched almost every bite. If that isn’t amazing then I don’t know what is.
After our meal we left.
But we came back for dessert after our ethnobotany class field trip!
We had seen photos of the open faced ice cream sandwich and were pretty much sold. There’s a choice between mint ice cream and chocolate. I easily chose mint. When it arrived at our table I had to check if there was any drool on my face. It looked heavenly! A scoop of mint ice cream on top of a fresh chocolate chip cookie with whip cream on top, sprinkled with some chocolate chips (was that dark chocolate?) and with a drizzle of hot fudge (my photo does not give it justice!) I cleared my plate, that’s how good it was.
Overall I had a GREAT experience here. The food was a 10, the staff was a 10, the atmosphere was a 10. Everything was just perfect!

Went here for the first time on Saturday a little after noon. We had a group of six and were able to get a table, but I would say presently this place is not good for groups. The décor and feel of the place is cute and quaint with a long bar covering one of the walls when you walk in.
Service was pretty good, could have been better but pretty good. We all ordered different items, but I personally tasted the following: bread-​sticks, meatballs and pulled pork sandwich.
In describing the above on the bread-​sticks that are served with a warm pesto marinara sauce. The bread sticks are obviously made there and were very good tasting with a hint of Parmesan cheese on them and the marinara was also made fresh. Both were great and a good starter.
We also ordered the meatballs to start with and share. The meatballs were pretty close to what my wife makes which to me are the best I’ve ever had and you would too if you tasted them. I’m not bragging, just stating facts. The meatball was made with beef and some sausage, garlic and basil and came with a side marinara that was also very fresh.
The pulled pork sandwich was very succulent with the meat and came with some slaw on it. Personally I would preferred a little more vinegar preparation in the slaw and that would have really set it off nicely.
If a business gets a 5 from me out the gate it is absolutely stellar with no flaws in service and/​or food, but a 4 means I would definitely recommend and would come again.
