Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Escondido

I took my mom to Sunday brunch at The Pony Room to celebrate her birthday. Our server, Jacqueline, was excellent. Every one of her suggestions was spot on, especially the Carajillo cocktail. She made our visit a very special one. Thank you!

Tour- 5 stars, fantastic! The tour was amazing- educational and fun with some great beer samples. Can't beat the ambiance in the restaurant, but service was pretty slow, but who's in a hurry when you're enjoying great beer?! Whoever created the Stone Fireside Magic brown ale deserves a big fat raise and an award for the best ale I've ever tasted in my life. Wow wow wow!!!

Mille Fleurs is a true gem, offering an exceptional dining experience that is second to none. From the moment we stepped into the warm, elegant ambiance, we knew we were in for something special. The attention to detail in both the decor and service is impeccable, making it perfect for a romantic evening or a celebratory meal. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the service. Rob, our server, went above and beyond to ensure every moment was flawless. His professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine warmth made us feel like honored guests. He was knowledgeable about the menu and wine pairings, offering fantastic recommendations that perfectly suited our tastes. As for the food—simply exquisite. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The seasonal ingredients were clearly of the highest quality, and the chef’s creativity shone through in every bite. From the appetizers to the decadent dessert, each course was a masterpiece. Mille Fleurs offers not just a meal, but a memorable experience. With outstanding service (thank you, Rob!) and extraordinary cuisine, this is a restaurant I can’t recommend highly enough. We’re already planning our next visit!

Overall a good meal. Somewhat limited menu options for sandwiches/handhelds. Otherwise, I'd recommend this spot.

we celebrated my dads birthday brunch and it was our first time here. everyone was super awesome from the moment we walked in. we were so shocked that the portions were HUGE. i highly recommend sharing. (order the crispy broccoli- it’s so delicious!) the drinks were super yummy too!! my dad loved the breakfast shot and my mom loved ray ray’s coffee cocktail! overall a great experience and can’t wait to go back soon.
