13 Best Italian Restaurants in Temecula

Akash Winery & Vineyard Winery •
39730 Calle Contento, Temecula

“I love how modern it was here! They had longer hours of operation and had more than just wine! I'm talking beer and agua frescas too! I think this is a spot to please everyone in the group. Lots of seating indoors and outdoors, there's also a specific section for members only and I noticed the live music was located there, but you can hear it from all around. This was our last stop for the day and I'm so glad we did! Unfortunately we came after 5pm so they were no longer doing tastings, so we opted for a glass of wine and tried their other drinks after. They have different food pop-ups, and today they had pizza, sandwiches, and salad. Sat outside and caught the sunset then stayed til closing to finish catching up with friends before going home. They had plenty of heaters and fireplaces outside, definitely worth visiting.“

“My wife and I came in and were greeted right away. The wait was minuscule and we were seated pretty quickly. The complimentary focaccia bread was delicious and fresh! The only downside was that they ran out calimari but that can be forgiven given our dinner. We had the spaghetti carbonara and the risotto con gamberi. Both were delicious! I ordered the carbonara and it was delicious. My wife's risotto was amazing (10 out of 10)! I would definitely come back again!“

“My family and I were touring Old Town Temecula and worked up an appetite for pasta. We checked out a few restaurants but pasta wasn't on their menu.Fortunately we found Bottega Italia, the food was phenomenal. We ordered Linguine al Frutti di Mare, which translates to " fruit of the sea" They definitely did not skimp on seafood! It included fresh clams, mussels, shrimp and calamari. It was savory, briny and not overly spicy.Also, we tried one of their hand tossed pizzas- The Butcher. I initially thought it would take at least 20 to 30 mins until it reached our table. But I just happened to notice their large brick oven with stacked wood logs breaking down into glowing embers.It probably took 60-90 sec to bake. The underside of the pizza had charred marks and the top had these darkened spots,like a leopard. Wow, the fresh mozzarella, married with the tomato sauce, spicy Italian salami & sausage, pepperoni and fresh basil. One of the best pizzas I've had in a long time.We completed our meal with their fresh tiramisu. We watched as she dusted the cocoa powder on the mascarpone, we just had to try it.The first bite was amazing! It was silky, cool, rich and velvety. We couldn't get enough of it.We'll definitely come back to try the rest of their menu.“

Both were such big portions and amazing taste. Nicole was our server and was awesome and very attentive even with the amount of patrons. The cannolies were great as well. Cant wait to go back and try more delicious foods. All the food and the wife hade 4glasses of wine, all under $100. We had leftovers as well“

“Food was good, not great. Pasta was basic, did not taste fresh or homemade. We were seated by the band and it was extremely loud but did enjoy the music. We were a party of 4 and had to yell to have conversation. Will always return as we enjoy this restaurant but the food quality has deteriorated in my opinion.“

“As usual, the service is great! The bar itself is clean and well maintained. The fireplace makes it so cozy (perfect for the fall/winter months). The food does not disappoint! The only thing I would not order again is the fried pepperoni (basically pepperoni chips, when I was hoping for a pizza snack thing).They offer happy hour and have great prices. They also have 4 TVs in the bar area and play sporting games!“

“Filippi's never leaves you hungry. Does not matter what location, they are always consistent and provide great value combined with big portions. This order we had the super torpedo sandwich and the small antipasto salad. The super torpedo was huge. It was a loaf of Italian bread stuffed with Italian meats and cheese along with an entire produce section of the grocery store. It was fantastic. The small antipasto salad was large enough for 2 and was accompanied by a small loaf of bread. The sandwich was around $11 and the antipasto salad around $10. We have had their pizzas and they were always delicious as is their pasta. We love Filippi's and we trust that every visit will satisfy our needs. Easy 5 stars.“

Bocconcini Italian •
39730 Calle Contento, Temecula

“On the way between San Diego and Big Bear we stopped to eat here and it was very nice! We didn't have to make a reservation. We tasted a Muscat wine and ate a special pizza with seasonal ingredients and a proscciuto sandwich, both very delicious. The flavor of the dough was outstanding. The area was surrounded by several restaurants for wine tasting, however they were larger, Bocconcini was more intimate and with a very nice view of its vineyard, in addition to offering an Italian menu which is what we were craving.The menu was short, it had a snack board, salads, pizzas and sandwiches, and a sweet pizza for dessert, but it was just enough to not have to delay choosing. The restaurant is outdoors and you order at the counter, they give you a device that rings when your food is ready to pick up. I think the prices are average and in line with the style of the place. Ultimately it made our journey to our final destination much more pleasant.“

The salad is different, using less cheese but it is still tasty and probably healthier than it was before with a zesty dressing on it.Atmosphere is great for family and small gatherings both indoor and outdoor seating.Come early (around 11) and come hungry!“

I said, "10 minutes." and there they were, ready for me to take home. Thank you, Tyler! You gave me outstanding service!“
