    We had a great experience at the Cave restaurant and loved the setting, food and service. Our server was the best (dark hair and name rhymes with Hannah). We tried the red and white flights to sample the wines with our lunch. We didn’t buy any to take home but we enjoyed what we sampled with our food. Portions are generous and we opted to stick with starters, burgers and salads. We had the shrimp tacos, the birria empanadas and the burrata salad. All were delicious. The cave burger was excellent and cooked the way we asked. For dessert, our server recommended the churro cheesecake and she didn’t steer us wrong! It was so good and such an unusual presentation for a cheesecake dessert. We strongly recommend the restaurant to anyone looking for a relaxing meal in Temecula wine country.
