The Nightingale - Temecula

We enjoyed our dinner at The Nightingale. The menu was imaginative, the food was excellent, and the service was also very good. If I come up with a desire for how they could be made even better, it would be that they increase their portion sizes. That said I'm a big eater! Anyway, we all loved it and thought we had just found a new favorite dining place, and then, sadly, we were told that they were closed and their place would be taken over by a sister company restaurant, effective 1/1/2020! Darn! We love this place and think that it is a crime that it will soon be gone! So, if you read this before the end of the year, make sure you go now to experience its size while you can!

The food is good and the service. The place is open loud and sparse

We enjoyed our dinner. It was our first visit to the restaurant. We ordered the striped bass and it was cooked nicely with a tasty relish or caper, olives, broccoli, veggie slivers and a lemon sauce.

The service was very good sad to say food not so good . someone needs to show the cooks how to cook . I don't think the fellow at the grill with long hair hanging down knows any better . owner please go to other places and just watch. maybe taste .find some chef with hart and imagination you have the rest .

Everything was great! The oysters and martinis were perfect. The Caesar salad was nice and chilled. I tried the Meatballs and spaghetti. I’d give it a solid 9/10. Wonderful sauce. My wife had the squid ink and shrimp pasta. Another 9/10. My only complaint was the $25 corkage fee. Seems way to high for Temecula. I usually pay $15~ in LA or Las Vegas.
