Explore EventsExplore Happy hourMy husband made us a reservation for here to celebrate our first wedding anniversary after looking at many options and he couldn't have picked better! The food was 10/10 and the service was 10/10! We look forward to stopping by next time we are in Bend!
First time to visit and very glad we did. The patio was shaded and well arranged, staff friendly and service prompt. I had salmon, mashed potatoes and carrots. All delicious. My husband had ribeye that was good as well. The complimentary sour dough bread was good as well.
We were celebrating our wedding anniversary. The outside seating was so beautiful. Our meal, the shrimp polenta combo and duck confit were excellent. Thank you so much. We will be back just for a romantic dinner
The service was amazing! I had the Duck Confit and my boyfriend had the Steak Au Poive. Everything was prepared perfectly. We finished the meal with Crème Brûlée which was wonderful. We will be back for sure.
