The Goat & Vine

This restaurant checks all the boxes—attentive and friendly service, fresh and flavorful food, and a warm, inviting ambiance that makes you want to linger. Every dish we tried was clearly made with high-quality ingredients and care. The flavors were spot on, and the presentation was beautiful. The staff were professional and welcoming, striking just the right balance of helpful without being overbearing. Whether you're out for a special occasion or a relaxed evening, this spot delivers a consistently great experience. Highly recommend!

Let me just say, the food is great. To be totally honest, my biggest draw back was the wait. Luckily, I called ahead to reserve a spot in line(highly recommended). It was a 50 minute wait for a table. I recommend getting a glass of wine at the bar while you wait. When I was seated and placed my order, 2 pizzas, it took 40 minutes for the pizzas to reach the table. So, expect almost 2 hours before you eat. There were no h'orderves offered.(ex: bread or snacks). Conclusion, great food, nice ambience(a little small), great service, but the wait is dreadful. I gave some suggestions to lessen the pain. I would say, not totally worth it and the price is a little harsh. I would like to see more for my money, either less wait or snacks to may it less dreadful.

We had an amazing experience at The Goat & Vine in Temecula! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt vibrant yet cozy -- a perfect blend of modern rustic and laid-back charm. The decor, warm lighting, and open bar setup made the whole space feel inviting and elevated without being stuffy. We ordered the Goat & Vine Salad and the Hatch Chile Honey Chicken Pizza, and both dishes absolutely delivered. The salad was so refreshing -- sweet strawberries, crisp greens, cherry tomatoes, and green onions tossed in a light vinaigrette, paired perfectly with a caramelized pecan-encrusted goat cheese. It was a great balance of flavors and textures. And that pizza... wow. The crust was beautifully blistered and airy, and the toppings were next-level. Juicy pulled chicken, roasted hatch chiles, cherry tomatoes, fresh herbs, and just the right drizzle of honey -- every bite was a perfect combo of savory, spicy, and a touch of sweet. You can tell the dough is made fresh and baked with care. Service was friendly and attentive, even with how busy it was. The whole dining experience felt thoughtful and well-executed. If you're in Temecula and want something beyond just wine tasting, this spot is a must. We'll definitely be back!

You definitely have to make a reservation. Two times I tried to book a table here, and the waiting time was 2-3 hours. That was really a strange to me for that long waiting time just to eat. However, the food here will make you feel that the wait was worth it. You can really tell that the ingredients are very fresh and of high quality. The pizza I ordered didn’t even come with ketchup because it was so delicious with sun-dried tomatoes—you wouldn’t need ketchup. Ask the staff if you’re unsure about what to order, Let’s try adding a Roasted Garlic Head to your pizza; it’s definitely worth trying. Other must-try besides that pizza are the Goat & Vine Salad and the Seasonal Sangria Cocktail!

Where to start? Whell first the the food was so disappointing. The hype is not it. I ordered tropical iced tea and that was definitely a lie. It tasted just like normal sad iced tea with a slice of lime like um where is the tropical. Reading the description made it sound so flavorful and tasty. Anywhays I thought it was ok cause the rest of our meal could be a lot better. I was WRONG. We looked at the apatizers and it was so basic and the menu was legit so small😔. We got pretzels and it was fine and all so then we ordered pizza. The pizza took 1 HOUR TO GET. Like what the duck. So I was like this pizza be fabulous. It was horrible. It was burned on the bottom and on crust and there was honestly not a lot of flavor. So disappointing. The service was definitely so slow and the pizza was cold🤨. On top of that they sat us at a large table and we were a group of 3 and then they sat another group of people right next to us. Like not even one chair away like at that point the other group and I were a family. They also definitely seemed very annoyed with the slow service. At least the check was fast so we could get the heck out of their. The total meals took 2 hours. 😭

What a great spot! I put myself on the waitlist about two and a half hours before I wanted to eat, and right on time, I got the notification that my table was ready. I checked in and was seated right away, super easy. Our server, Rony, came by pretty quickly and was so friendly and helpful. She had some great recommendations for drinks, appetizers, and entrées and just had such a warm, genuine vibe. It really felt like she enjoys what she does. My boyfriend got the El Guapo Margarita, and we shared the hummus plate and You Confit Me pizza. The hummus plate was a little overpriced for what we got, but it was fresh and tasty. The olive tapenade was hands-down the best part. The pizza, though, was incredible. The garlic confit, ricotta, and chili honey combo was perfect, and the crust was just right - - crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Even the leftovers the next day were just as good. We’re big pizza people, and we gave it an 8/10. The atmosphere was another highlight. The space is beautifully put together with tons of plants, cool light fixtures, and stylish decor. It feels trendy but not over-the-top fancy - - just the right balance. And I have to say, Rony really made the experience even better. She was so kind, attentive without hovering, and just genuinely good at her job. Her recommendations were spot-on. We had such a great time and would absolutely come back next time we’re in the area!

Tried this place for a late lunch whilst visiting Temecula after reading all the good reviews. It did not disappoint! First of all our drinks were insanely good. For food we ended up splitting a pizza and the hot pretzel rolls. The rolls were so fluffy and delicious and the beer cheese was legit. The pizza was next level and one of the best we’ve ever had. Highly recommend checking this place out!!!

On our usual trip back from Big Bear to San Diego, we like to stop for dinner along the way, often finding a restaurant based on our location. This time, we discovered a place with a long waiting list, so we couldn’t stay. we decided to call ahead next time to make a reservation. On our second trip, we made a reservation in advance and finally got to try it. I noticed from the vibe of the restaurant that most of the people dining there seemed to be locals. The restaurant had a beautiful ambiance and the food was delicious, especially the pizza and salads.

Ate at bar, service was great, drinks were absolutely on the mark, great selection. Food, sandwiches, salads and Meatballs were scrumptious.

The food was divine and the service was outstanding! We were seated early and our out of town guests were wowed! Win-Win!

I've been to The Goat & Vine before. I remember that it was good, but not memorable. But. My wife and I took a well-planned staycation - including a day with friends at our favorite wineries. We started with lunch at The Goat & Vine. I'm not kidding when I say that I had the single best bite of food the whole week at lunch! It was the Coast By Coast Ruben Sandwich, including pastrami and Swiss cheese and house made everything: sauerkraut, pickles, Russian dressing (yes, house made), on sourdough bread (from the family's 120 year-old starter!). It was complex, sweet, tangy and savory, and I tasted each and every item on the sandwich in perfect harmony. It was a masterpiece - and it didn't fall apart into a dripping mess! The salads were gorgeous and fresh, the pizza had a perfect crust balanced with toppings that are interesting and delicious - not just the usual corner delivery place. And don't skip the daily fresh sangria, even if it isn't your thing. It's also amazing. I could go on and on, but now I have to go back every time I'm nearby to experience everything on the menu, and you should too!

We stopped here for lunch as we were passing through on vacation. It was packed around noon on a Wednesday (so if you're planning ahead I recommend a resi). We lucked out and snagged a table right away as there were only 2 of us. Our server was top notch. She had great knowledge of the menu and recommendations. I enjoyed a watermelon sangria, which was fabulous and so refreshing on such a warm day. We shared the goats garden pizza, also fabulous. They have a variety of seating with booths, separate and communal tables and high tops near the bar. It has an elevated, casual vibe with plants, which I love. If we lived in Temecula we would def be regulars here!!

Wow, to date I am the 4,168th person to review The Goat and Vine! This is the most popular restaurant in Old Town Temecula according to Yelp. On a Saturday evening in June our welcoming host informed us it would be a 45 minute wait for a table or no wait for counter seats. I was good with a counter seat and we sat in front of the preparation area. From where we sat, we saw many amazing dishes get handed off to servers. The hubby is a sangria fan and thought his drink was excellent. I sipped and agreed. The hummus plate looked awesome with the spread of veggies, peppers, bread, and cheese. I tried a little of my hubby's salad. It was so refreshing with strawberries, arugula, and tomatoes. My Whole Vegetables Sandwich in sourdough and chips were nothing short of amazing! Everything was so pleasant and filling that I actually declined to have a dessert. Our server was so attentive and kind despite how crazy busy they were. We would love to return her and try one of their pizzas. Perfect 5 stars!

Came here as a party of 6, on a Summer Saturday, at 6pm, after a day out at the local wineries. The ambiance was homey, modern meets farmhouse. We were seated promptly, I assume because we had a reservation. The restaurant was pretty full as it was dinner time. Sadly, it took 50 minutes for our food to come out. We were so hungry! We ordered Goat and Vine Salad, Coast by Coast Rueben, The Goats Garden Pizza, and The Godfather. The salad was unfortunately unphotogenic and mid at best. Both sandwiches were good, not the best I've ever had. The star of the show was the Goats Garden Pizza. If you visit, try any of the pizzas. I wouldn't come back. I would rather try a new spot in the local area.

The pizzas and salad were delicious. The salad could have been tossed a little more because the plate made it difficult to mix it ourselves, so we ended up with most of the dressing at the bottom. All drinks seem to come in the coupe glass - even a martini, so that was different.

Goat & Vine is located at the southern edge of Old Town, and well worth the stop. We started our progressive dinner here and walked northward, eating our way through town. You can check out my inside pic and Old Fashion pic. The staff was very attentive and efficient. Since this was the beginning of the evening, we thought about drinks and appetizers (listed under "Others"). You can see the presentation of my Old Fashion - it was good and smooth. We started with Bread Sticks & House Sauce ..................... we didn't expect this. This is how bread sticks should be done. The center pieces were ooey, gooey with melted cheese on a thick flat bread - piping hot. The house made walnut pesto marinara sauce was tangy, thick and rich. As you can see from my pic, the amount of gorgonzola cheese on top was the right amount for an astringent punch. For a starter, there is more than enough food and sauce.

Phenomenal food and service. Our waitress was incredible and so energetic, bubbly, and fun. She treated us super well and we had cocktails and dessert at her suggestions and she made the entire dinner that much more delicious. Coming here is always a "treat yoself" kind of night for me and (I think her name was Hannah) was just an absolute gem that made it even nicer :) The staff here all rock really, you guys make the meal an experience.

It was a long wait during mealtime , but you can join the waitlist online. The environment was great and spacious. We got Mother's Meatballs and Jalapeño Lime Carnitas Pizza, and both were amazingly good. The waiters were friendly and gentle.

This place was incredible. The inside was absolutely adorable. Everything was decorated beautifully, and you can smell how delicious the food was from the outside. We ordered 3 drinks and 2 pizzas and everything was so good. The drinks were super refreshing, especially for such a hot day in temecula. The pizzas were awesome, and we were able to add pepperoni to one of them. The crust on the pizza tasted super fresh. Service was awesome. Our waitress was super nice and gave amazing recommendations for us. Parking can be tricky depending on the time you go. Luckily for us, we found parking right away and went during a time when we didn't need a reservation. I would highly recommend getting a reservation if you can. By the time we left, there were several parties waiting outside. They also sell their own merch near the front entrance. Check them out and support small business

When my friend suggested this place, I went on Yelp to see why she wanted to meet at this restaurant. When I saw their 4.6 star rating with over 4000 reviews, I totally understood why she suggested this place. Of course, as we were on our way to the restaurant I was checking out their menu. Then I remembered that we were forewarned that there would be a long wait to be seated. I had a lot of time to check out their menu while we were waiting to be seated. As we were sitting outside, we noticed that the hostess had shade while the majority of the customers ended up sunbathing. My friend talked about how nice and humble the owner of this restaurant was. She noticed that it looked as though he has slowly been gaining weight. I totally understood why! Their pizzas were delicious! If I worked there, I would have to be rolled out of the door. The pizza crust was wonderfully crispy! I was able to hold the slice of pizza without the toppings falling off of the slice. We ordered the Steak Gorgonzola Pizza and the Jalapeno Lime Carnitas Pizza. My friend said that their Hatch Chili Honey Chicken Pizza is what we should have ordered instead of the Steak Gorgonzola. There's always next time! We devoured the Jalapeno Lime Carnitas Pizza. I'll definitely be coming back to this restaurant if we're ever in Temecula.

The wait was really long (about 2 hours) on a Friday evening but we were able to sit right away at the bar. Staff were friendly and quick. Atmosphere is nice but very loud (I think sound echoes off the tall ceiling). Food is pretty good. We got the Mother's Meatball which was juicy and had a nice flavor. It came with 2 pieces of garlic bread and 2 meatballs (perfect for splitting). Very basic bread with butter and cheese. But it was good with the meatball and sauce added on top. The Goat pizza had good ingredients and the ratio of each was just right. Except the big heap of garlic in the middle (but my friend did enjoy that so it depends what you like). The pizza dough/crust is a little thin and floppy for my taste though.

Amazing pizza spot with cool ambiance. Great cocktails too. I don't think it's as amazing as the giant waitlist and waiting time calls for however

The ambiance here is gorgeous! From appetizers to salads to their wonderful pizzas you can't go wrong on anything you order. I didn't get to order any drinks, but their bar looks well stocked with a plethora of choices to go by. Great place for a date or group of friends just hanging out. It does cater to a more adult crowd, although you can bring your kids here too.

Ate here for dinner, solely because it was in close proximity to our hotel. My husband and I are SO glad we did! The pizza was fantastic, service amazing, and overall experience was perfect! If you like garlic, add it to your pizza! We will definitely be back next time we are in town!

Temecula, CA We were in the area for a sporting event and ended up walking around Old Town Temecula/Main Street for the first time. I couldn't believe how busy the downtown area was on a Saturday nights. To be honest this isn't quite my scene but from Yelp reviews and a few other restaurant owners recommendations we were guided to Goat and Vine which was touted as one of the better restaurants in the area. Pro tip: our two hour wait turned into immediate seating when we snagged a seat at the bar. There are only 10 seats at the marble slab counter at the bar and four lower bar stool seats off to the side at a wooden counter top. They were nice to accomodate us at the lower wooden countertop bar area next to the main marble countertop bar. We shared a pizza with house made fennel sausage and garlic confit, local hot honey, mozzarella and ricotta...we added cremini mushrooms. The crust was light, airy and soft and the toppings were delicious. This restaurant uses very fresh produce and a lot of scratch made unique ingredient combinations. We also shared the house salad with strwberries and pecan crusted goat cheese which was very fresh. My least favorite option of the night was the meatball appetizer. I liked the sauce but I did not care for the flavor of the meatballs at all. Our waitress, Channing, was fantastic! Service was excellent by all of the staff. I'm not sure I would make this a regular spot to dine at if I lived closer, but it was fun to try at least once, and we were pleased with the quality of the food. The disappointing part for me was the restroom set up. We were directed to use the restrooms outside of the restauant but part of the same building but they were so filthy and disgusting that I left only to find out from the hostess that there was one small handicap unisex restroom in the back of the restaurant which was an improvement from the first, but no hot water coming from the tap! Yikes! For as nice as the restaurant is, and considering the amount of effort they put into the restaurant ambiance and quality of ingredients, they really should do a better job at keeping the restrooms in better condition, it was a off putting way to end a good dining experience.

Favorite! Every time we travel through Temecula. Great food, fresh & full of flavor. The goat garden pizza, the chicken sandwiches, everything is delicious. Ambience is beautiful & service is great!

**March 2024: Sunday Late Morning Visit** Get on the Yelp waitlist ASAP! My friend and I put in out name at around 1130am and waited about 30 minutes. When we were seated the wait time increased to an hour and a half and patrons were still willing to wait - gagzooks! The restaurant interior has a classy, bougie type of setup with high ceilings and belly bar seats and tables, although for larger groups there are also standard chairs / tables. Our server was very attentive and enthusiastic. After quickly looking through the menu my friend and I decided to split the following Goat and Vine Salad ($16): I really liked the freshly grated pepper over the strawberries and the first couple of bites were really tasty. I do think that after a while the vinaigrette was a tad too acidic for my preference. I'd probably pass on this next time You Confit Me ($28): The Star of the show! This pizza has slow cooked garlic confit (wreeks of garlic - which I love), and homemade fennel sausage with dollops of ricotta cheese. It was extremely tasty and everything just worked well together. Summary: Overall, this is a great place to enjoy for a girl brunch or if you up want to level up a business lunch. Enjoy!

came with super high expectations and was so pleased! food: 5/5 pizza was BEAUTIFUL AND DELICIOUS. the crust is so perfectly thin and tasty, and the goat's garden had the perfect balance of flavors. the mushroom steak sandwich was also delicious, super generous with fillings and had a good jalapeno kick. service: 5/5 very attentive with refilling water and bringing out plates for sharing. kind enough to stop to take our picture as well. the restaurant was pretty busy so it did take a little longer to get our food but it wasn't a crazy wait. Parking was easy because we got lucky on the street. we didn't have a reservation and were told it'd be a 90 min wait but since we weren't too hungry we decided we could wait. they called us 20 min later that our table was ready! very pleased about that. definitely make a stop here if you're passing through Temecula and check out the rest of old town!

We had a large pick up order for a baby shower and The Goat & Vine delivered! We ordered 18 pizzas (Jalapeño Lime Carnitas, Steak Gorgonzola and Goats Garden). They were all delicious! The guests loved it and there was plenty for everyone. Just keep in mind they only take large orders for pick up at opening time, in our case 11am. Otherwise, they're too busy to accommodate that amount. Make sure to email the manager with your request in advance so they can be prepared. Overall, it was a great experience and great pizza! I would order from them again!

Seasonal sangria was blueberry and you could tell it was made with perfectly ripe blueberries had such a good balance of sweetness. Goat and Vine salad was very good! Simple but fresh strawberries and the goat cheese added lots of good flavor! Meatballs had a nice crispy outside but soft inside and the tomato sauce was so fresh. Served with a Parmesan cheese bread that had a nice crunch. The pizza was probably the best I've ever had. The honey adds a sweetness that works so well. Crust was also enjoyable! Sandwiches are also really good. I had the saloon steak mushroom melt and it was by far the best hot sandwich I've ever had. The quality mushrooms and steak they use paired with their jalapeño lime crema was so delicious. Service was amazing and personable as the server asked how we liked the food. The restaurant has a nice aesthetic. Fresh ingredients, long wait but worth, I'd definitely go back to explore more of the menu.

I always find it cute when I order something, and the restaurant thinks that I am going to share by bringing extra plates and spoons. But on this day, in Temecula, my friend ordered one thing and I ordered a full-on pizza with dessert. No sharing (though, honestly, I probably should have). Let's talk about the Goat's Garden pizza. It says it is a 14-inch pizza, and for some reason, I couldn't measure this in my mind, and out came this beautifully sliced pie. It has everything its menu described, "Roasted crimini mushrooms, goat cheese, marinated artichoke hearts, spinach, and a white ricotta cream," and it was delicious. I delightful told my friend that I was impressed with the fresh mushroom. The dough was perfect. Not too thick, not chewy, and because I saved the other half of the pizza for the next day, it was equally good. And, for dessert, they only have 2 options on the menu (which is smart, especially if you want to highlight the food), so I went with the Sourdough Pudding. That was divine! I forgot to let the waitress know start the oven for my dessert (which she asked me to do, weird, right?), but she remembered on her own and out came this beautifully sweet dessert; I was in carb and sugar heaven. Again, the waitress thought I was sharing and brought out two spoons... that's cute. Overall, the food was great and with great ambiance. Parking is tricky, so give yourself time, and it is busier on the weekends, so reservations are highly recommended.

We left the winery and decided to try this place out. Glad we did. We were immediately greeted and sat relatively quickly. It was pretty loud at first but subsided as the night went on. We ordered the meatballs as an appetizer and the Carnitas pizza for dinner. The meatballs were pretty good especially since they make their own sauce. The pizza however was delicious. They import the flower from Italy and it shows. You won't be disappointed. Now the price is not for the faint of heart. Very pricey at this location. Beers are $11, the meatballs were $20 for two and the pizza was $30. I can go without the meatballs next time around but the pizza was well worth it. It's a good size and can feed2 to 3 people.

Superb food! Your palate will instantly detect the elevated ingredients and cookery. Goat & Vine salad ($16): fresh greens, sweet strawberries, and creamy goat cheese all went well together, 4/5 stars. Momma's meatballs ($20): balanced marinara sauce, not too acidic. Meatballs were massive but well-seasoned and juicy, 4/5 stars. Jalapeño lime carnitas pizza ($28): milky cheese, tender pork, and fresh herbs. The garlic and olive oil also came through, 4/5 stars. Cappuccino Ice Cream Cake ($14): a sophisticated mud pie. Love the extra caramels and pecans, but every ingredient was instrumental for an indulgent final course, 5/5 stars! As far as the atmosphere here, it is relaxed. The service here was inviting and efficient from the hostess, our server, and the general table staff. This place is regularly at its maximum capacity, and the wait could be over an hour, but if you didn't know, now you know why.

Visited Goat & Vine on Sunday as a recommendation. Ordered the Pulled Pork and it wasn't that great. Service was really good, however the sandwich was lacking a bbq/ sweet sauce to it. It tasted too much like ranch . I asked if they had any type of bbq sauce and unfortunately they did not, which was a bummer. I heard the pizzas were good, maybe next time I will give it a try.

This is by far the best restaurant I have ever been to. Everything here is delicious no matter what you get. I have been here probably five times at this point and keep bringing new people to try it because I love it that much. The atmosphere is elegant, but fun. Their service is wonderful. The appetizers and pizzas are AMAZING. They make some of the best dough I've ever tasted. And if you are a fan of banana pudding, GET THEIR BANANA PUDDING. I'll say the jar is hard to eat from, but the flavors are there and so delicious. The food is so good that looking back, I don't have any photos of the food I've eaten there and I ALWAYS take photos of my food.

The food was excellent and the service was friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was pleasant, and other diners seemed to enjoy the vibes too.

Service top notch! Plus Watermelon Sangria is a MUST!!!! 10+ the Ambience just sets the mood!

very delicious!!! 4.5 for waiting 20 min for the pizza to come out. the salad was really fire. i get why people rave about it!!

We went there last night and they burned our pizza but the most disgusting thing was their host who was very rude and not friendly at all. I don't think that we go back there since there are a lot of great restaurants in the area with polite and nice hosts.

The food was great and the service is really good and the restaurant has a very cool vibe

We have been to the Goat and Vine a few times. We love all their food so when we are in town we try to get there. The place is very cute and super clean. The service is kind and they have ideas for you if you want about the menu. We wanted pizza this time and were not disappointed. They make their pizza from scratch and it is excellent artisan pizza. We had a simple cheese pizza and a pizza loaded with vegetables. Both were great and we left stuffed. We have had amazing dinners there as well. Their pizza is by far the best in town.

Delicious food - be prepared to wait though! There are no reservations but you can "get in line" online in advance - highly recommend doing. We went on a Friday night so we knew it'd be busy. We got in the online line around 4pm and it was a 2.5 hour wait, which we had planned for. Upon arrival we had to wait an additional 20 mins but we were able to sit in side so it was ok. Staff was very friendly and attentive despite how busy there were. My mom ordered one of the pizzas and meat balls and loved it! I got their mushroom sandwich and wished I had ordered a pizza instead. Was pretty loud given the layout and capacity but we sat in a both close to each other so we were ok, we were also able to park in the free lot down the street no problem.

Very nice place! We had the Jalapeño Lime Carnitas Pizza with slow roasted pork shoulder, garlic olive oil , cotija cheese, jalapeños, green onion, jalapeño lime crema, grape tomatoes, cilantro and fresh avocado - Very YUMMY!

We have been wanting to try this place since we moved out here but just never had the time. We decided to go here for date night, and I am glad that we did. We ordered "The Real Caesar" salad which was huge and delicious. Literally one of the best Caesar salads I've ever had. My husband and I were able to share it, it was so huge. We also ordered the "Steak Gorgonzola" and the "Margherita Pizza". Both pizzas were great. We had a pitcher of their Sangria to wash it down which was good as well. Overall this place is really good and worth a try. The service was great as well. I wish I could remember our waitresses name but unfortunately I cant. I do wish that they had a few more pizza options though. We will definitely return.

Goat & Vine is a favorite among my friends who appreciate excellent pizza, sandwiches, and a charming ambiance with all the artsy frills. The decor is gorgeous and eye catching, so it's no surprise that this is local favorite. In fact, our real estate agent introduced this venue to us! Definitely a MUST visit for tourists!

Was recommended to try this place, Great food Great service our server was Angela she was great and gave us a few tips on what to order. Definitely will be back!

This restaurant has it all... The atmosphere is everything ... The vibe more than just Temecula , this was a Napa Valley worthy restaurant... dare I say We had lunch on a Sunday afternoon and it was packed. They do take reservations. I highly recommend it is dog friendly. It's a corner restaurant it's just off of the main street. They have beautiful booths a great bar tables by the window and also high tables. The staff are incredibly friendly, and the food is delicious. We are so excited to come back in February. This was a five star restaurant all the way around for me.

We visited here while on a group trip for our friends' wedding in Temecula, and this was a PERFECT stop to add to our day in old town Temecula. It was like finding a slice of Houston food & ambiance. The vibe itself is perfect. A bright space with the coolest interior, a lovely ambiance, and a large restaurant with just the right amount of tables and high tops. A group of 6 of us sat at the bar and loved the service we got. Very attentive, friendly, and some odd the BEST SPICY BLOODY MARYS I've ever tasted... and I've had a LOT of bloodys! They have a lovely menu with plenty of options for all appetites. You can literally smell the pizza dough down the street. Word on the street is the dough is prepared in house in the wee wee morning. It's the modern Italian flare that makes a good spot like this thrive. We ended up grabbing some breadsticks at the bar and taking home 4 pieces. If you're a pizza fan, it's a MUST! I ate too much pizza because I couldn't stop The steak and Gorgonzola was one of my faves. Would definitely recommend this spot if visiting Temecula!

Used the Goat & Vine for a networking event. Everyone was happy. The vegan option was decent. We will be using them again. Delicious salads and pizzas!

The Goat & Vine is a little off the beaten path in downtown Temecula. Upon entering, the space is gorgeous - big, but cozy. And where are we? Yes, that's right, Temecula. The menu here is something to note - for dinner, they seem to dabble in a few different appetizers, but the main focus seems to lie in sandwiches (both hot and cold), salads, and pizza. Easy and simple. We shared the following: -Popeye & Olive ($16): spinach, bacon, spicy Marcona almonds, feta cheese, grape tomatoes, green onions, and champagne vinaigrette -The All Nighter ($25): oven-roasted chicken, roasted garlic purée, artichoke hearts, caramelized onions, and spicy cherry peppers The salad was delicious. I liked that it wasn't overly dressed. The champagne vinaigrette was the perfect accompaniment without overshadowing any of the ingredients. The spicy Marcona almonds and creamy feta cheese just added layers and textures to the salad. And then there was the pizza. I loved that the All Nighter deviated away from your typical marinara base. It was sauce less, but the garlic purée, artichoke hearts, and caramelized onions were all so flavorful that you didn't need much else. The addition of the spicy cherry peppers packed a little heat to each bite. While this wasn't the best pizza I've ever had - the under carriage was a little lackluster - it sure was tasty. If you find yourself in this neck of the wood, the Goat & Vine is a solid choice for a meal.

Goat and Vine is my go to spot for dinner in Temecula. The pizza never disappoints and the wine list is great. The service is great, and they really make an effort to ensure your order is perfect every time. It's a popular spot for a reason, so make sure to join the Yelp waitlist!

Big big kisses to the chef, food is PHENOMENAL!!!!! The vibe here feels great as well.

Really good service, our two waiters did amazing. The restaurant had a large variety of pizza's for every diet and taste bud. The cheese bread and marinara sauce was fresh and appetizing. According to my aunty the meatballs had great flavor and was enough to fill her up. The garden salad wasn't my favorite. It contained too many sprouts and not enough dressing. The Caesar salad was a regular Caesar salad that we all enjoyed. On my next visit, I look forward to ordering the Peaches peaches peaches cocktail again and trying other's. My family all ordered their own pizzas to try and share. The chicken pizza with honey and avocado was the table favorite. The restaurant was busy but a good busy. The restroom was clean. The decor was welcoming but stylish. Can't wait to come back to try new things.

The salads are remarkably delicious and are large enough to share. I frequent this restaurant and have never been let down by the service. I'm always welcome by a pleasant host and server! The design of the spot is cute and trendy & would be great for a date or a simple lunch.

We visited Goat & Vine for the first time on 03/18/2024 and got seated at around 7pm. We used Yelp Waitlist, which is very efficient. We had an excellent server, and I'm sorry I do not remember her name. The restaurant is charming, quaint and just a great place to hang out -- whether it is just a couple or a large group. The food was the star of the show. We shared both the Jalapeno Lime Carnitas Pizza and the Hatch Chilie Honey Chicken Sandwich. Both were excellent. We wanted to try the bread pudding for dessert; however, we were stuffed. They did offer us a complimentary ice cream and cookie though for my birthday, which was very nice. Overall, we had an excellent time! Just one quick suggestion, maybe dust the hanging light fixtures just a little more often above the tables. We had a big dust bunny fall directly from above during our meal and we turned our heads upwards and noticed that that needed attention. We do hope to return in the future.
