Nature preserve
Park
Nestled at the base of Mount Jurupa, Mary Vagle Nature Center in Fontana offers an educational experience on local natural history and wildlife preservation. The center features interactive displays, a reptile viewing area, native plant gardens, a pond, and nature trails that wind through the serene landscape. It's a perfect destination for families and nature enthusiasts to explore the diverse flora and fauna of the area.
This is a childhood place. I would always come to is by far the best place/dog park I can ever go to. Finally took my daughter here and it was amazing. Let me tell you we had a little fun with the ducks. Many many ducks bring some food. You will have a blast.

My husband and I go at sunrise to look at beautiful scenery up the mountain behind Mary Vagle NC. There are good trails all around there, offering a good hike workout and beautiful nature scenery. No outdoor restrooms though. Also easy parking and easy to find using GoogleMaps. We have yet to visit the inside of the nature center.

I just saw a goose with a net tangled around its foot, clearly struggling, and I tried everything to get help. I called over and over, but the place was closed, no staff, no security—nothing. So I reached out to Fontana Animal Control, hoping they’d do something, only for them to tell me they’ve had multiple complaints and just gave up because they’re “not equipped” to catch it. Seriously? So an animal is left suffering just because it’s inconvenient to help? The fact that no one is taking responsibility is beyond frustrating. What’s the point of having these services if they refuse to step in when it actually matters?

Totally a great natural place to visit for a couple of hours. Nice lake, lots of ducks. You Leave them alone they leave you alone. The only one thing I suggests is that you put bug spray before you go so you don't get bit.

Awesome park! Great getaway from the city life. This park is conveniently located in between a residential area but once you enter you immediately feel at peace. The atmosphere is serene. You have ducks, turtles, and Koi fish in the pond and just behind that there's a nice walking trail that leads to Martin Tudor park it's about a mile long great for the family. The restrooms are clean but they do close by 5pm.

Nice trails for kids. Lots of wildlife and natural beauty. The pond is pretty because you are not allowed to feed the animals, so there is no algae or litter. There are koi fish in the pond, but no fishing or swimming. We saw squirrels, butterflies, turtles, hawks, ducks, geese, and baby geese! There are many native flowers, trees, and brush along the trail and some pretty spots with a small creek. There is a small educational center with taxidermied animals and live creatures like bugs, spiders, snakes, lizards, and chinchillas. Restrooms are clean.

A nature preserve with great view of the local mountains, this park has a duck pond that’s quiet and calm. There’s a hiking area next to it for the more adventurous, love that’s it’s just so peaceful and clean the beauty of nature in full display.

Awesome place to relax and embrace nature. Did my first hike and the trails do not disappoint. This is also a wonderful place to show little children nature and simple, but beautiful creatures like ducks up close. Lots of shaded areas to sit and relax, benches are there as well. Bathrooms are also available. The center itself has great information and helpful staff.

Auto Race Tracks
Nestled in the heart of Fontana, Auto Club Speedway is a thrilling destination for racing enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike. This iconic D-shaped oval superspeedway not only hosts major events like the Xfinity Series, IndyCar Series, and NASCAR Sprint Cup but also offers an array of experiences for fans to immerse themselves in the action. Visitors can take part in exciting activities such as Track Laps for Charity or various racing experiences led by legends like Mario Andretti and Rusty Wallace.
Can’t believe that NASCAR has given up most of the track. Auto club was a great track and one of my personal favorites. I’ve been keeping up with its progress and the good thing is that part of the front stretch is intact and so is part of the grandstand. I do believe it will become a short track since it was said it would be and NASCAR is dedicated which is good. I wish it would have stayed the same but I am looking forward to seeing racing back in Fontana, No matter how long.

Great experience on the NASCAR series 👌 👏. We had a great family time under the sun by watching the race on the powerful cars. It's a unique experience, when you have the chance, come and enjoy, there are activities for all ages and fun and great time is guaranteed. Highly recommended.

Went to the exotic driving course here. Staff was super friendly. Boyfriend and I had an amazing time. Very educational and got to drive some amazing cars! Lots of parking not not a long wait for your turn. They're incredibly safety oriented as well. Next time were in Cali we are definitely going back.

I've been a PSA seat holder since the inception.. parking is easy and they allow tailgating.. wish the outside of the stands facing the main parking lots had TV screens so those walking around outside the grandstands could see what was going on on the track instead of just hearing it. Good concerts before the race.
Mel C — Google review
Had a great day at the NASCAR race. Great scenery and views of the track. The ticket price was reasonable and parking was not too bad. Food and drink prices were outrageous but typical for these events. Highly recommend bringing your own food and drinks. Entertainment was good and happy to see a good band playing there. Staff was friendly and helpful. One even helped me take a picture which was nice. Look forward to next year. I didn’t give 5 stars because there is not enough food and beverage stands and long lines persisted throughout the race. Also, the speakers kept cutting out which was very annoying. I also would have like to see more video screens for replays and lap count. You can’t see the leaderboard from turn 4 stands so something over there would be nice.

I took my husband here as an anniversary gift to him, & he loved every minute of it. The experience is pretty pricey so I initially debated on whether it was worth it, & they also charge you $70 for professional video footage of the driver’s performance, so be prepared to spend at least $400 after it’s all over. The staff was extremely nice & accommodating for the non driver family members by providing free water & shady places to sit. I probably wouldn’t invest in this again but I’m glad we got to do it once.

Outdoor Activities
Sierra Lakes Golf Club in Fontana, CA offers an 18-hole par-72 course with challenging holes like The Monster and Sneaky Tough. The club features a modern practice facility with target greens and hitting mats. Its diverse terrain is popular for weddings and quinceaneras. Nearby, visitors can explore the San Bernardino National Forest or cool off at the Fontana Park Aquatic Center during summer months.
We were hired on for our Photo Booth service a couple of months ago at this venue and the staff were very friendly and helpful. They directed us to where we needed to set up. The outside has a large pond and is great for pictures. The inside is large enough for a nice reception and dance floor. I would definitely recommend this place.

HT K — Google review
Fairways were really nice. Greens seemed like they were just aerrated. Our tee time was at 10:45am. We finished at 4:35pm.. just about 6 hours. The people in front of us were playing SO slow. They were waiting for the people in front of them to get off the green before they took their tee shot on every hole and were messing around and playing around. They got drunk and were fighting on the 18th green. Nothing was done about the pace of play. Im disappointed for my first experience playing here due to the pace of play.

My family has been coming here for golfing and their restaurant's amazing special event brunches. Both of our kids have taken lessons from Coach Eric and his team as they are simply great with kids and know their stuff. Early evening in the summer months are just the perfect time to hit balls at the driving range. Avid golfer friends love the well-maintained golf course, and calls it one of the finer ones in the area. I loved the food served at their Mother's day brunch and on the three other events we attended here.
G ( — Google review
Extremely well maintained golf course. One of the best golf courses in inland empire along with Oak Quarry. Fairways are good, pace of the play is above average. Green quality is also awesome. Nice fun course. Since the course is in Fontana, expect high wind at times which make the play little bit more challenging. Surrounded by mountains, you get to see a lot of snow on mountaims which is so good scenic looking. One minus is the practice golf balls from the range to the course. At hall 9 and hall 18, you are annoyed by so many practice range balls from the practice ranges. Do not play with yellow golf balls on this halls because you are going to have challenges to find your ball. Staffs are kind, course well maintained and fun - location is good too. Highly recommend this course.

Had a amazing day with all my grandkids. Reasonablely priced at $3 per person. The life guards were all friendly. We did lose about 30 min of playtime due to the ticket window being completely slow. Possibly opening the ticket window 15 min before the water park would be nice.

Super easy to find and get there. Lots of areas of shade. Grounds were nice and lush. Having said that, sadly, there were a couple of unsavory (homeless) people there. I would have to say my biggest pet peeve was the fact people are paying to have these shelters and someone from the city tending to them. I did not see a single city worker emptying trash or keeping bathrooms maintained.

Mexican restaurant
Tio's Mexican Restaurant is a delightful spot located on Sierra Lakes Parkway in Fontana, CA, where casual dining meets authentic Mexican flavors. This charming eatery boasts a vibrant salsa bar and inviting sidewalk tables that create a relaxed atmosphere for diners. Tio's is the result of the combined efforts of two families—the Loeras and the Contrerases—who have established multiple locations across Southern California, including Rancho Cucamonga and Riverside.
I’ve eaten here 3 times now with my wife-to-be. And every single time the food had been amazing and delicious we love the chips and guacamole as well as the pastor tacos. Highly recommended for anyone and everyone looking for delicious Mexican food. A side note I recommend to mix some of their guacamole with the mild salsa. A great combination.

I never deviate from my opinions just like I'm always true to myself so, here it goes. If you're a MEXICAN RESTAURANT than get with the program. NO FREE CHIPS IS A DEAL BREAKER. Every Mexican restaurant I go to, has Chips and Salsa while you wait and honestly, I judge the restaurant by the quality and taste of them. Be smart, and just add them into the cost of the product you're selling. Until I see those chips being offered, I'm not returning. There are plenty of other better than you, who get the business because they are smart.

I wanted to love this place since it’s a local spot, but it really disappointed me. I tried the bean and cheese burrito, cheese and chicken enchiladas, and chips n salsa. I really don’t know how you can mess up Mexican food, but literally everything lacked flavor. Even the chips. How is that even possible? Also there were so many weird parts of the chicken in the enchilada that I completely lost my appetite after a few bites, thick pieces of collagen and big pieces of skin. Yuck. And the chips tasted old and the sauces had no flavor. Even the salsa had no flavor, I thought maybe they don’t salt the food much so I added salt and that didn’t help. So sad. Maybe gringos like it? lol But if you know Mexican food, you know this ain’t it. Ugh… Really wanted to love this place and make it my spot, but I’m leaving disappointed and unsatisfied. I barely touched my meal. Like two bites of the burrito and a couple bites of my enchiladas. Service and atmosphere were nice tho. Felt super authentic and I was digging the tables and chairs vibe inside. And staff was very nice. Fix the food so I can come back and grub!

I’ve loved this restaurant since it opened its door to the public. Off of Day Creek Blvd and Baseline in beautiful Rancho Cucamonga. This review is needed because the people who were a part of the restaurant’s conception need to know that when the bosses are not around some employees are rude, disrespectful, and lack people skills and manners. The food seems better earlier in the day. We showed up at 730 PM and what we usually order was not the best. The two people behind the counter were just nasty. In all of the years that we’ve been coming here no one has ever been so rude and disrespectful. The faces, the rolling of the eyes, the nasty body language. Sooooo unnecessary, really. I understand it was almost closing time but we all had 30 minutes to spare. There are other servers that are so much nicer. Again, the food was okay. Not what it usually is. I think there’s a different cook and you can tell. The place was clean. It’s never changed its decor. This is a consistent thing. Our food was rushed. Some of it cold…… I think every employee was packed up and ready to run out the front door. The people started walking in for dinner and the girl at register was rude and so annoyed. It’s sad…… the guy gave my spouse an attitude and said: “we’re closing in 30 minutes” as my spouse served herself soda. My spouse replied: “we’ve got 30 minutes.” The employee said: “again, like I said, we’re closing in 30 minutes.” Unacceptable behavior……. We drove 25 minutes for dinner. I will never do this again. Tios; you’re not what you used to be. It shows….. Something is happening and it may be some of your staff. The carne asada burrito is still good. That’s all….. That is all.

Been going here for years but went today n it has definitely changed n not in a good way. Even my eldest noticed the difference. The ranch was watery and gross, there was flies everywhere , our food was cold 😞 and our steaks were overcooked. My baked potato or maybe the sour cream, tasted old. This place used to be a staple in our town n now it's going downhill.

Sundowners in Fontana, CA for years and it never disappoints! 🙌 🥗 Started off with a side salad + ranch — super fresh and crisp! 🥩🍋 The steak and lemon chicken combo is PERFECTION. The chicken is packed with flavor, tender (not dry at all!) and the steak is juicy & melts in your mouth. 🍞 The toast? Absolutely delicious. I swapped the mashed potatoes for rice and it was a great choice. 🥪🍟 The chicken sandwich with steak fries was also really good! If you’re looking for a spot with consistently tasty food and big portions, this is it. Highly recommend! 💯👏

If you grew up in the IE you pretty much know about this place. With only two locations, one in San Bernardino and this one, this was the place to go to grab good food at a budget price growing up. Prices are still reasonable with most lunches costing between 7-11 bucks and they include a side salad or soup and a drink. Staff is friendly and food is always good.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 **Absolutely Incredible Sandwiches at Peppi’s!** Peppi’s is easily one of the best sandwich spots around — a true hidden gem! I came in on a recommendation and was *not* disappointed. The **Philly cheesesteak** is out of this world. The steak is super tender, loaded with flavor, and topped with perfectly grilled onions and melted cheese — all tucked into fresh bread that holds up beautifully. Every bite was rich, cheesy, and satisfying. But the real surprise? The **bulgogi** sandwich. WOW. The Korean-marinated beef is packed with sweet and savory flavor, grilled to perfection, and layered with just the right balance of spice and crunch. It’s a bold twist that works *so well* — definitely not something you find just anywhere. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the staff is friendly and quick. Peppi’s nails it across the board. Whether you’re in the mood for a classic or something unique, this place delivers. 💯 Highly recommend. You’ll be thinking about these sandwiches long after you leave.

Tried this place for the time today, per the reviews.. yes, it did take 20 minutes from time of order. We had the double bacon cheeseburger, that was delicious! You could tell that it was made fresh. The second thing I ordered was the new 10in chili cheese and pastrami (meat was a little too dry for me) hot dog, it was good but not as good as the burger. This place also has crinkle cut fries and those are always my favorite kind so I was super excited to see that! Ranch is $.25 each but is homemade so that was another plus! Plan on going back another and try other foods there. They serve Korean good as well .. can't wait to try it.

American restaurant
Corky's Kitchen & Bakery in Fontana is a delightful local gem that captures the essence of classic American dining. Nestled on Sierra Ave, this charming eatery offers an inviting atmosphere perfect for gathering with family and friends. The menu boasts a variety of mouthwatering dishes, including their famous French toast and an array of homemade pies that are simply irresistible. One standout treat is the Snicker Bar Pie, which has garnered quite a fanbase for its rich flavors and creamy texture.
This morning, I had breakfast at Corky's Kitchen & Bakery, located at 10926 Sierra Ave, Fontana, CA, and it was a delightful experience. Right from the start, I was warmly greeted and seated promptly. My waitress, Kimberly, was attentive and very pleasant throughout my visit. I opted for one of their build-your-own omelets, choosing sausage, bacon, and avocado as my fillings. The omelet arrived quickly and was massive but delicious! Despite its size, I almost managed to finish it all because it was so tasty. The quality of the food and the excellent service has made me a soon-to-be regular. I'll definitely be coming back for more. Great experience overall!

Originally had 3 stars for the reasons listed under "prices" but after finally getting home and eating my sandwhich, it was the saddest piece of s that ive ever had. Taking down to 1. Chicken breast was beyond dry, thinner than my wifes eyeliner and taste was left behind. They dont even toast the bread, which makes the bottom super soggy and disgusting. I miss having a cocos near by, bread always toasted, flavor, portion, and prices were on point. Corkys uses shredded lettuce so for sure has even less lettuce than a regular lettuce leaf. The sweet girl at the front was awesome and correctly placed my order (per receipt) for my 3 sides (onion straws, steak fries, and potato salad). Cooks couldnt even get that right and i got 2 steak friea and 1 onion straw, missed my potato salad. PRICES- it's Corkys lol paid over $60 for 3 sandwhiches. Yo can go to almost any other restaurant and save money for the same services. Foods nothing special. Go to BJs crazy to think that a burger or sandwhich is cheaper there, more delicious, and better atmosphere. Crack a barrel cheaper and food is just as good. Won't be back. Good old corporate greed at its fullest. It's a sandwhich for God's sake not even a signature entree. Still trying to figure out how 2 pieces of cold bread (1 soggy bun), 1 chicken breast (dry and thin), 2 tomatoes slices, some lettuce go for that much, can't even blame inflation on this one.

We recently visited the Corky’s Kitchen & Bakery on Sierra Avenue in Fontana, and this branch definitely deserves a special mention. The restaurant is nicely decorated, bright, and very clean, giving off a comfortable and homely vibe the moment you walk in. Everything feels well-organized — from the seating arrangement to how quickly the tables are cleaned and prepared for the next guests. The staff were courteous, attentive, and well-mannered, which really added to the overall experience. They checked in just the right number of times and made sure we had everything we needed. You can tell that this particular branch values good service. The food was excellent, and I must say, this location stands out compared to other Corky’s branches I’ve tried. The flavors were spot-on, the portions generous, and everything came out fresh and hot. They have a large selection of brunch options, from classic breakfast plates to hearty lunch specials, making it easy for everyone at the table to find something they like. The pancakes were fluffy, the omelets well-cooked, and even the sides tasted better than average diner fare. Another big plus is parking — plenty of it and completely free. The lot is spacious, so even on weekends or busy mornings, you won’t have to drive around looking for a spot. Overall, this Corky’s is a clean, welcoming place with great food, friendly staff, and a relaxed atmosphere. Whether you’re coming for breakfast, brunch, or a late lunch, this branch is worth the stop. It’s easily one of the best Corky’s locations around.

If you’re looking for a breakfast spot in Fontana that hits all the right notes, Corky is the place to be! We kicked things off with their pancake appetizer, which was fluffy, golden perfection—just the right amount of sweetness to set the tone. For the main course, I went all out with the chili omelette and the country Benedict. Let me just say, bomb! The chili omelette was packed with flavor, with just enough spice to make it exciting. The country Benedict, though? A total standout. The biscuits were soft and buttery, the gravy was rich and creamy, and every bite felt like comfort on a plate. From start to finish, Corky delivered on taste, portions, and atmosphere. Highly recommend if you’re in the mood for hearty, delicious breakfast fare!

Food quality is terrible! Potatoes tasted like they were made yesterday and heated in the microwave and the chicken was tough. I thought I was chewing plastic! I usually go to their other locations and the waffle is pretty big but here you get the mini waffle but not the mini price. Not coming to this location again!

This is the Corky’s I frequent the most and 9 times out of 10 it’s excellent all around. Unfortunately most recently I had a horrible experience. I arrived at 9:20pm, 10 minutes prior to closing at 9:30pm in the hope of grabbing a pie to go. As I exited my vehicle one of the servers rushed to lock the door right in front of my face. I knocked on the glass hoping to get his attention to let him know all I wanted was dessert to go. He completely ignored me. As a former service worker I understand wanting to close out and end a shift in a timely manner. My timing wasn’t great but I factored in that all I wanted was a dessert that is already prepared and getting it to go so as to not inconvenience the staff. At the very least look me in the eye and tell me you’re closed even there were 10 minutes left. May have to find another location to take my business to.

Great choices, but nothing is particularly exceptional. Nice staff and big portions.

Mexican restaurant
Nestled on Arrow Boulevard, La Tapatia Mexican Grill stands out among the many Mexican eateries in Fontana. This charming family-owned establishment is known for its warm and inviting atmosphere, making every guest feel like part of the family. Open throughout the day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, La Tapatia offers a delightful array of specials and combination plates that keep locals coming back for more.
I love the menu! I tried the shrimp enchiladas with my family last week and I can’t stop thinking about how delicious they are! I really love the unique menu, much different and tasty compared to a lot of other places in the area. The staff is attentive and so kind and it’s a comfortable spot to eat inside as well.

This cozy, family owned restaurant offers a welcoming atmosphere and attentive service. Although the space is small, the staff efficiently manages table availability while you place your order. I’ve visited twice, and both times the food was exceptional. On this occasion, our group enjoyed the menudo and pozole, both of which were absolutely delicious. The bolillo was a perfect complement to the menudo, while the chips paired wonderfully with the pozole. This spot is clearly a local favorite, as they had already run out of champurrado during our visit, something I’ll definitely try next time. Highly recommend!

We ordered the chilaquiles with eggs and pozole. Since this was our first time trying this restaurant we asked for half green and half red chilaquiles. Both are delicious. The red is a perfect amount of spicy. I wanted to try the menudo but it's a popular item and they sold out. The pozole is very delicious. They give you a small bowl for frjoles de la hoya. This place has an atmosphere like eating at home. Great service and excellent food. We came to this restaurant a 2nd time ordering Huevos Rancheros and Chilaquiles. The Huevos Rancheros are the best I've ever tasted. They're made with homemade chile Verde and pork. The beans and rice take me back to good homemade food. It's a must try. The Chilaquiles are also very tasty. You can choose red or green or half n half. You will not be disappointed.

Happy Valentine's Day!! Thank you for the great service today. My coworker and I were immediately greeted. Shout out to the young lady who took my order and mentioned that Friday is discount tacos. I ordered 4 Carne asada and a tall Tamarindo water. The icing on the cake was the complimentary beans with bacon. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area again. Muchas gracias♡

"If the restaurant you have been directed to lies between the 7-Eleven and the dry cleaners in a dusty strip mall, then you're probably at the right place." Jonathan Gold No 7/11 but checks the boxes. We drove 10 minutes into town from the highway on a hunch based on a Google search. So glad we did. Enchiladas, Tortilla Soup, 2 Burritos and it was all excellent. Que Rico!

My wife and I were looking for a new restaurant to try. I Googled authentic Mexican restaurant when I saw La Tapatia we decided to give them a try based on the positive reviews. Well the reviews were right!! The restaurant has a warm homely feeling with sitting area inside and out. As soon as we walked in Alondra greeted us with a warm welcoming smile. My wife ordered Huevos Rancheros and I Sunrise breakfast and 2 coffees. My wife and I sat outside when Alondra brought us our breakfast once again excellent service my wife could not stop talking about how delicious and authentic her Huevos Rancheros tasted and as for my Sunrise breakfast was just as delicious. We highly recommend both breakfast dishes not to mention the delicious coffee and excellent service tied everything together perfectly. My wife and I highly recommend this restaurant.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 Recommend La Tapatia absolutely crushed it for our event! The food was delicious—fresh, perfectly seasoned, and served hot. We heard compliments about the food all night long. Portion sizes were generous, the salsas were on point, and everything was beautifully set up. Customer service was just as great: friendly, professional, and on time. They made it easy for us to relax and enjoy. We’ll definitely be ordering again—highly recommend La Tapatia!
