I ordered from this place 3 times. First time sucked me in. It was fantastic. I loved it so much I chose it for my birthday dinner. Unfortunately one time was the only time it was good. Birthday dinner was completely burnt. You can see in the picture. Was really hard to chew. People make mistakes. So of course I give it another round. I paid almost 20 bucks for this tiny salad. They didn't pack the dressing. Another let Down. Goat cheese on the salad was an amazing touch. I don't think I will be going back here now.

Great service! The food is cooked well and fresh. Happy hour is phenomenal and ideal for working professionals.

Super disappointed, especially for the cost. The food is absolutely overpriced for a place where you order at a counter. I got the American Burger and asked for medium rare. The patty was a well done husk and the bacon unpleasantly thick and tough. If a patty can't be cooked medium rare then don't ask someone if they want it that way.For the price you'd think the burger would come with fries or some other side, but no. This business wants you to believe that a lone burger with one thin overcooked patty is worth $14.25 because they slapped some avocado and bacon on it. Off the top of my head I can think of at least two different small business fast food restaurants that serve a burger with comparable toppings (bacon, avocado, cheese, etc.) that are priced around $9.00 and are twice as good on a bad day. Then, on the other end of the spectrum, I've had awesome gourmet restaurant burgers priced around $3.50 more... and those came with a side! If I'd bought a side to go with my burger here it would have been equal to or greater in cost to those gourmet restaurant burgers. Absolutely ludicrous. Even if it had been a good burger it still would have been overpriced. So either save your money and go support local small business fast food or go to an actual nice restaurant for a few bucks more per plate.My husband got the Thai Chicken Curry Bowl and he said it was bland and disappointing. He loves curry. All types of curry. I didn't try it so I can't personally speak on the flavor, but he's someone who hates to criticize anything at restaurants so the fact that he expressed disappointment at all is pretty telling. Pricing was, again, too high for what it was even if it had been good. Which it wasn't.I can't speak for the other dishes here, though I did eat a sweet potato fry from my cousin's order. That was pretty decent and I probably would have had a better time if I'd just ordered some of those and not gotten an overcooked and overpriced burger I'm still thinking about 3 days later.I have nothing negative to say about the line level staff. I also wouldn't put my heart and soul into a job that almost assuredly pays minimum wage, is in a store with a layout that resembles a fancy looking Subway, and wants you to fill the roles of cook, wait staff, and (god forbid someone order a cocktail) bartender while you're trapped behind a fast casual counter. I don't know where the price markup is going but I'm pretty confident it isn't employee compensation. I'm absolutely baffled by these glowing reviews.

Never really saw myself leaving a bad review for this place. Used to work here for quite some time decided to get a salmon bowl with cauliflower and Brussels sprouts with teriyaki. Walked into pick up it was pretty slow inside. Got home no cauliflower instead I got sweet potato's and no teriyaki ‍ tipped too. Was refunded for the cauliflower for the inconvenience though.

I want this location to go back the way it was before the pandemic. It's just kind of gone downhill over the last several years. I do go to Menifee and that is way better. The food quality. Tonight I ordered and my hamburger was burnt. They forgot to give me the teriyaki side for the salmon plate that I paid extra for. They also forgot the tapenade for the salmon. You need to reward the entire staff for getting your reviews back up to 4.5 stars.

Delicious, fresh, healthy food that is reasonably priced. You can't beat it and the variety on the menu is awesome! Tried the peri peri chicken with mixed vegetables and roasted sweet potato with a side of the Korean cauliflower. It was all SO GOOD, the chicken was so fresh and perfectly grilled. None of the vegetables were overaly oiled or greasy which is hard to find now a days. Everything is perfectly toasted and seasoned to perfection. Will definitely be going back to try more items on the menu

My food was great, Chanel was an absolute sweetheart. I wanted my steak a bit more fleshed tone and it came out a bit more well than what I initially wanted. She went in the back and personally cooked it to perfection for me, thank you so much. Great place, food and people!Vegetarian options: They have a good amount of these items.Dietary restrictions: They have a good amount of these items.Parking: N/A

The Best Restaurant in knowing what the customer wants , and delivering is wonderfully refreshing in a sea of Restaurants where you feel like just a number .. Their food melts in your mouth . And you can taste the exquisitely , delicious flavors all melding together and complementing one anther in each dish ... The treasure for me , personally. Is that I get to Eat like everybody else . Thanks to the extensive Gluten Free Menu , and not have to ever worry about cross contamination. The kitchen is a certified gluten free kitchen , that completely uses all the safety measures even to the extreme . My tummy and mind are very happy indeed ! .

This was my first time ever stepping into Bushfire Kitchen and I will not be back. It was a cold and rainy day and the tables that were not covered were completely wet. Naturally, my party sat down under the heated area while the other half of my party went into order. A lady who worked at Bushfire told me that I had to move because the entire section was reserved for a party arriving in 45 mins, despite there being another group of people NOT part of the reserved party sitting in the same area. My party was at the cash register getting ready to order our food. She told me to find somewhere else to sit despite every other table being wet/ or not next to a heater ( inside was completely full). She did not care to accommodate us in any other way possible, and snarkily remarked " have a nice day." when she noticed my party leaving without ordering. I'm extremely disappointed that this occurred, and I have never been treated by staff at any restaurant in Temecula like this. Given that there are dozens of restaurants in the Temecula area, I would recommend skipping this place solely on the lack of customer service.
