Richie's Real American Diner

Was visiting Temecula for a wedding this past weekend and we were pleasantly surprised to see that Richie‘s Diner was close by and it sounded like a great breakfast option and I can confirm that it definitely is. I am from Los Angeles so it’s great to see a retro, traditional diner in other cities that is very popular back home. They have a giant parking lot with tons of free parking and the inside is actually very large. They can host a lot of different size groups. They also sell many different types of candy in the front where the register is and our waitress and the entire staff was extremely friendly. They have an extremely large menu, larger than most other diners. Everything is also very fairly priced and what shocked me was how large portion sizes were. You will definitely not leave hungry and honestly, it has great value for what you get in return. Being our first time visiting we decided to try some of their classic items. I started with a Giant Cinnamon Roll to start that we shared and loved every bite of. For my meal, I chose the Country Fried Steak with a biscuit and jam on the side and both were fantastic. The steak was a large size portion, the biscuit was a true buttermilk biscuit, and the homemade jam with it really made the dish. Overall, we had a great breakfast and I would definitely recommend to anyone in the area and I would stop in again next time I’m in town.

Probably the best breakfast/diner spot near Temecula. The decor is mint 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻 with turquoise old school booth seating. They have the grill out front cheffing up steaks starting at 0700 on the weekend. The service was perfect. The middle aged Hispanic gentleman who served us came through with recommendations, sauces, coffee refills, and all the creamers. He was great. The steak and eggs were phenomenal, a little pricy for diner food, I believe it was ~25 for a 12 oz steak and eggs. The potatoes were all great as were the biscuits and gravy. Coffee piping hot. Great spot that we will definitely be back to.

Cute little spot. Great, friendly service. We went for breakfast. The food came out super fast. Too fast! Like they had pre-cooked everything and just plated it. Portions were generous, and you get a GIANT cinnamon roll. Not sure I'd be back for breakfast. But, I was full and satisfied. I'll try dinner next time.

My wife and I are regulars at Riches, and always order the New York steak dinner with the dinner salad. We were the at about 4pm on Sunday, and ordered our usual with the steak well, well done. The waitress seemed to be new, and was trying really hard. But the kitchen staff served us the worst meal we have ever had. The dinner salad was brought to the table on a steaming hot dinner plate. The lettuce was wilted. The salad is normally fresh and served on a cold plate that keeps the lettuce nice and fresh. The steak was so rare, that when I cut into it blood came out and soaked the bake potato and dinner roll. I had to send the steak back to be cooked. When it was returned the bake potato was cold, there was no dinner roll, and no butter. We went ahead and ate the meal because we were hungry, but I had trouble later (pretty sure it was the salad). My wife and I really enjoy eating at Richie’s, and hopefully this was just a bad day for them. We will try again before dining elsewhere.

Great friendly atmosphere. The service was swift and accurate. The food looked as good as it tasted. Must take Cinn Rollbwith you for the ride home. Would be 5star exception bit pricey for breakfast.
