What People Are Saying
from Google"I loved our stop at Downtown Public in Murrieta! First off, the little downtown area is such a vibe—not overcrowded, just the right amount of people and the kind of atmosphere that feels welcoming. We had just come from a spa day, so we weren’t super hungry and decided to split the Public Burger. Honestly, it was perfect—juicy, flavorful, and exactly what we needed. The drinks here are also really good (definitely worth trying a couple!). Our server was super nice and helped us pick out the right things, which made the whole experience even better. We sat outside, and the weather was absolutely perfect for it. Just a heads-up—you do have to wait to get seated, but it’s worth it, and there’s plenty of parking nearby. Overall, great food, great drinks, and such a chill spot to enjoy Murrieta’s downtown."
"Food was ok but mostly came just for a dink and a few appetizers. Atmosphere outside is very nice. Music was excellent as well"
"I have gluten tolerance issues, and was so excited that they have fresh sourdough bread here! I ordered a sandwich and fries, and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. I highly recommend! I don't live in the area, but I will be stopping here every chance I can!"
"Great place. Highly recommended. If you like Brussel Sprouts, order them for your appetizer. I cook Brussels sprouts often and it’s difficult to get the perfect soft/crunch. They nailed it"
"Vegan Brunch: Soyrizo Hash Vegan Appetizer: Vegan Mac & Cheese, Vegan Dinner: Linguine Arrabiatta A chic trendy full service restaurant, good for a sit-down meal. In addition to the natively vegan entrees, there’s a lunch burger with option to sub and Impossible patty at no extra charge - to veganize it ask them to omit the house sauce and cheese. Hopefully they’ll add a vegan dessert and a fully decked-out vegan burger, and bring back the Tempeh Tacos and Vegan Brussels Sprouts!"
