My son took me to the Gambiling Cowboy for Father's Day, we were seated in 10 minutes even though we did not have reservations. Out food (New York steak) was prepared exactly to our request. All ingredients and side dishes are first quality. The steak was excellent. The atmosphere is upscale with a suggestion of informality which makes it a special place to be where you can have fun. All staff were professional, prompt to provide service, and easy going. One word of caution, I ordered the carrot cake dessert and it turned out to be seven layers high. I could only eat half, took the other half home which took me two days to finish. Very nice quality cake. I will clearly return to the Gambling Cowboy, it is becoming our favorite restaurant in Temecula.
