Cafe Champagne

Friendly service and outstanding food! My wife and I recently had lunch here, and we had a wonderful time with our server Ashlee who was very outgoing and had great recommendations. My wife had the lobster ravioli which had a very rich and sweet cream, and I had the dry aged Ribeye which is a relatively new menu item. I recommend both dishes, and both are at the top of our lists for future visits. We also had a couple of flights, and Thornton has a "Kiss" wine collection which, if you're a chocolate lover or enjoy sweet wines, is something you should try once. Definitely a favorite of ours, and since we're local, it won't be our last visit.

We had a big group of 8 and they catered to our every needs. We tried many many wine flights and a variety of different foods. The mussels were delicious, as was the cheese platter! I had a marguerita flatbread which was very good. All food came in substantial portions. Staff was friendly and the overall environment was nice!

We came out for lunch for mother in law's birthday. Overall a good experience, but very expensive. We had a reservation and went on a Saturday. Definitely recommend a reservation but also expect large parties there so service may be slow. Service - Brooke was very nice! They were pretty busy so it was very slow to get our food (1 hour). She did apologize and comp our desserts so that was nice. Never had our water cups or wine filled until dessert time though. Food - Everything was pretty over priced. Not sure who would order the beyond burger for $28 haha... insanity. I will say though that the chicken Naan sandwich was delicious! Lots of flavor with the feta and pickled onions. But it was $28. The sandwich was pretty small but they loaded the fries. Personally I would rather have more of the sandwich. Mother in law got the filet ($49) and so did my partner. They loved it. Presentation was very nice and price wise to what you are getting, it was a decent value. Broccolinni was charred but the mashed potatoes and steak were very good. We got the chocolate fondant cake which was supposed to be molten but it was more like a small piece of dense cake. So it was so so. It's dog friendly so it was nice seeing all the pups around. Pepple were enjoying the a nice grass space below the restaurant with chairs and some tables as well.

We drove 2 1/2 hours and the food and service was okay. My food was cold, server forgot several things I requested during service. But, my husband's food was great! He was such a sweetheart being that it was Valentine's Day, he ate slowly until my food arrived. While I spoke to the manager who resolved everything, we will not visit during a holiday meal due to restrictions of what you can order even if you are willing to pay additional.

I was just here celebrating Mother's Day this past Saturday and even though I was here back in January this place is amazing with class, service, and food. Even though I didn't get my flight of wine (which is ok and that's my only drawback) I still like coming here and the people and atmosphere was great!!

The bubbly is pretty good, the food is pretty good, the prices are outrageous. Overall a "good" experience, but I have fonder memories from years ago. With all the excellent competition in the Temecula Valley, I'd go somewhere else unless they turn themselves around, improve the menu and bring prices back down to average for the area.
