Temecula's Goat & Vine Opens In New Old Town Location

TEMECULA, CA — It's been a busy time for the very popular Old Town Temecula eatery, The Goat & Vine.

The restaurant, which first opened its doors on 5th Street five years ago, relocated Monday to a larger Old Town spot in the Truax Building, 41923 2nd Street, Suite 103. It's the former location of the Nightingale Restaurant.

"We’ve had a phenomenal five years at this location," a post on Goat & Vine's Facebook page read. "It will always hold a special place in our hearts and will always be the birthplace of The Goat. But it’s time to level up! On February 3rd, our next chapter begins."

Now serving at the new spot, the menu is unchanged and there's still the same cool interior design elements, but there is more room, including more booth seating, more restrooms and a full bar — which the owners hope will translate into shorter wait times for patrons.

"Finally, we can accommodate larger parties and families!" a Goat & Vine post reads.

Known for its pizzas, sandwiches, salads and libations, the always busy bistro is open Sunday through Thursday, from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., and on Fridays and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
