Things To Do
Cork | Fire Kitchen
Our hotel's on-site restaurant happens to be one of the best in Temecula. They'll be catering our wedding on Saturday night (one of the reasons we chose this venue), but if you're coming in on Friday night and looking for a good dinner spot, you don't need to go far!
Temecula Creek Golf Club
Our wedding venue / hotel happens to be situated on a championship 27-hole golf course! Bring your clubs (or rent them there) and tee off in a scenic setting.
Miramonte Winery
Miramonte is our favorite winery, and the spot that made us fall in love with Temecula. While the wine is incredible, it was the ‘Fromage & Tomato’ plate that sealed the deal! This is the perfect spot for light bites and shareables over a bottle (or two), with an incredible view.
Fazeli Cellars Winery
Here’s the thing about Temecula: most of the wineries will have great wine, and great views. Fazeli is no exception. This is a great spot if you’re craving mediterranean. Fazeli’s restaurant, Baba Joon’s Kitchen, is known for its Persian-Mediterranean fusion that, you guessed it – pairs well with its wine selection!
Robert Renzoni Vineyards
Robert Renzoni Winery is a perfect spot for groups and families, and its restaurant Mama Rosa’s has delicious Italian fare. We recommend the pizzas and Caesar salad with the Pinot Grigio.
Pechanga Resort Casino
If you're looking for a little entertainment beyond the wineries, Pechanga has the largest casino floor in California!
The Smok'd Hog
This may be a bold claim, but we declare The Smok’d Hog the best barbecue we’ve had in California. They frequently run out of their brisket early in the day (a good sign if you ask us), and their bar program is top notch. The Smok’d Hog is located in the Cookhouse Food Hall, perfect for groups with varying tastes and cravings.
Hot Air Balloon Rides
For an unforgettable experience, go for a picturesque and peaceful hot air balloon flight over the rolling hills and lush vineyards of the Temecula Valley. Take in a panoramic view of Southern California’s unique topography, beautiful estates, and awe-inspiring scenery with sunrise flights.
