"We had the most magical morning at the Lookout Roadhouse with my little family. This place is an absolute dream. Stunning views from a cliff right over a huge lake, incredible food, and the city sparkling in the distance. It is also a favorite stop for bikers on the road. I cannot recommend this place enough, five stars all the way!"

"Fun place to get good food if you're on a trip, commuting to/from work, came for the view, or going for a ride... overlooks Lake Elsinore, CA. Great for fireworks during the 4th."

"It's easy to just stop for the awesome view directly down to Make Elsinore. But it's appropriate to make a purchase from this classic roadhouse when you can.
They have a diverse menu of tasty foods for anyone in your group, at surprisingly reasonable prices. I thought seating was outside only at the ordering window, but there's an entrance and sit-down inside too. Hours and parking are very limited. Most food is not premade, so give the kind staff time to do their thing while you enjoy the scenery. Really, don't expect anything fast here.
Be courteous and don't over-extend your visit, for others who are also stopping in this small area for view and refreshment.
Be extremely careful exiting traffic to the dirt parking area, and rejoining traffic that might not be aware of this small and easily missed rest area."
