   Good food, i recommend the wild boar lasagna. Ambiance was nice, server polite and hostess sat us right away with our reservation. I will try this place again. Meat balls were ok, not much flavor, pasta was delicious. Pasta Tasted like it might be homemade. It was a Sunday at 515. Nice place I recommend it for sure.

   Our reservation was for 8:45pm, but we stood at the door waiting behind two other couples for a good 15 minutes before the hostess finally came out to seat us. Our appetizers—meatballs—were served on a piping hot plate but were completely cold, so I’m assuming they were microwaved. They were also very dry, so we left most of them on the plate. The entrees were just okay. The boar lasagna was fine (and at least was hot), but the pollo allo limon was very dry and the “seasonal vegetables” were cold, undercooked carrots, a few zucchini, and limp peppers. Again, we left much of it on our plates. Our waiter, who was utterly wonderful throughout, asked if we’d like boxes to go. When we said no, he asked if everything had been okay. We said yes, because whatever was going on in the kitchen was not his fault, and it was so late we didn’t want anything else, nor did we trust that the kitchen could make anything better, so we just left.

   Resies at 7, seated at 7:45 and then our waiter forgot about us. Needed to flag down two other servers to order dinner. Food at 9. The food was super tasty, but the service was a little brutal.

   We love the food and live music, but the service was awful. Our server came to our table 3 times over a 21/2 hour period and we waited over an hour and a half for our food. We asked for bread and never received it, and we asked her to add an entre (catching her as she was walking by) about an hour and a half into our evening and we ended having to wait over an hour and after we paid to receive it in a to go box. The server also added on a 20% tip to our two party bill. In my opinion she didn't even deserve 10% of a $200 bill. She wasn't friendly, or attentive at all.

   Server missed bringing us our salads, up charge for spaghetti and meatballs. Meatballs tased horrible, noodles were way over cooked. Bill for 4 was over $400 with no desserts, couple beside us complained about their food as well. Stated they wouldn’t be going back. Honestly don’t know where they got 4 stars on Yelp…

   Went there for my birthday .. made a reservation and was greeted at the door promptly. We were seated in a booth in a quiet area which was nice. Asked the waitress about recommending a full bodied red and she wasn’t familiar and asked another waitress . Recommend a local wine that was ok but not what I was looking for. We ordered the caprese salad the mozzarella was fresh so we were excited. We also ordered calamari and those we nice but lacking a tad a seasoning. Next we wanted to order our main course and I asked what she recommended and she recommended the carbonara risotto which I was excited for and my husband the chicken parm . Waitress came back 10 min later saying they didn’t have the risotto which was disappointing so I ordered a special of the day potato ravioli with sage butter sauce . Food came and the parm had been sitting waiting on my dish due to the original cancelation and mine was just bland and nothing to talk about . Waitress never asked if I wanted a wine refill or how I liked my wine . We will not be going back very disappointing.

   Very disorganized was sat 15 min late. The advertised Wagyu was not Wagyu, more like a real low quality rib eye. Each course took 45 min to receive.

   We've been going to this restaurant for 5 years. It never disappoints us. The food is great the service is good, and the owner and chef Pietro is always giving personal attention to all customers. You can also bring our own wine, and you only pay a very decent corkage fee. We'll keep going to Trattoria Toscana for as long as we live in the Temecula valley area. GM

    Food was fair The service was slow Wednesday asked for salt and pepper for our table and the waitress said that they don't offer it because they didn't feel the customer should need extra seasoning The burrata tomato salad was not a good value and had no flavor at all Generally an average to bad experience and I won't go back again ....too many other restaurants that try harder and are better
