This newer location has come a long way since it opened. The staff was super. Even the chefs (ours was awesome) have become more comfortable with their work and are as entertaining as they were skilled. The servers were super attentive yet not obnoxious (their timing was great). The food was prepared perfectly. Since my first time visiting this location, I would say that it has come into its own and is now a great destination.

The food at Gourmet Italia was outstanding as usual. We have been eating here since 2009 and the food was as good then as it was back then. Best Italian food in Temecula, by far!
