The Daisy — Restaurant in Temecula

It's always a special experience to pop into the Daisy. It's a rare gem featuring unique, wholesome personality in all aspects. The cocktails (and mocktails) are creative and delicious. The bartenders are goofy, talented folks who love banter and a mixology challenge. It's become a fun game to describe a mood and witness one of the guys manifest the perfect drink to match. Otherwise, they make a mean martini, Sazerac, & Old Fashioned. The B-movie horror films on the tv in the background offset the groovy eclectic decor and funky vibes. We love people who work so hard to craft wonderful experiences for their guests. They do themed events too! The Smok'd Hog is a lovely complement to this bar, with truly yummy offerings (brisket burger & hot chicken sandwich w/ extra slaw yes please). Thanks to Mike, Trace, Saff, and Anthony - we look forward to visiting you whenever possible. For a great time, visit...

I enjoyed the atmosphere, but the bar tenders seem to have a focus on their regulars. The drinks are very inconsistent. I ordered the same drink a few weeks ago and it seemed completely different today, making it less enjoyable. Overall the bar was clean and they had alcohol choices, so it was just about average, the kind of place where everyone might know your name if you come often.

REPLY TO OWNER: Pineapple Margarita, Hawaiian (forget the name), those two were not garnished as they were before. We ordered two the same drinks and they tasted different. The bigger issue was the bartender was not very warm. Seemed like we were bothering him; I get it we all have our days, but it really wasn't the first or only bartender that we experienced like that. I hope this helps lead to some improvements, but frankly, it won't stop me from drinking...

I've visited twice (so far) with my wife and really wanted to give this place a stronger score as their affilated restaurant (the Smok'd Hog) is a strong recommendation.

I anxiously anticipated the opening of The Daisy following them on IG for almost a year before their doors opened and couldn't wait to visit. Unfortunately, my first visit was met with disorganization, no menu, and an eager and willing staff that wasn't given the tools/training for success. Second visit was better but in my opinion drinks were overpriced and undersized for a simple shot and soda.

The Daisy is located in the cool vibe area of Vail Headquarters called the Cookhouse. Unfortunately this place falls short when compared to similar establishments with larger servings at less cost.

I will continue to visit although not as often and will update my review...
