The 16 best cheap eats in Sunriver

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sunriver Brewing Co. is hands down one of the best spots to eat and drink in Sunriver! We started with the pimento cheese dip and let me tell you—it’s an absolute must-have. Creamy, flavorful, and perfect for sharing. Then came the wagyu beef sliders, which were already amazing on their own, but here’s the insider tip: put that pimento cheese on the slider and you’ll thank me later. Seriously—game changer. BET! The drinks were just as impressive. The strawberry lemon drop was refreshing and perfectly balanced, while the jalapeño mango margarita had the right kick of spice with a sweet finish—definitely a guaranteed order. The vibe is laid-back but lively, the staff was friendly and attentive, and everything came out hot, fresh, and delicious. Whether you’re stopping in after a day on the trails, relaxing in the village, or just want top-notch food and drinks, Sunriver Brewing Co. delivers every time. We’ll 100% be back!

We eat here every time we visit Bend. Pizza is legit! Surprisingly delicious salads. Good wings and burgers. I’m not a drinker but the beers must be good because everyone else is drinking. Solid place.

Solid option for classic brewery fare. Really fun outdoor seating to soak up the sun, feast, and have a refreshing beer. Family friendly with high chairs for the kids. We had a ten minute wait to get a table, but then the lunch rush came and the place was slammed. If coming at primetime, I recommend putting your name down on arrival, and then exploring the shops in the village until your table is ready. They will send you a text when they can seat you.

Fun and tasty stop for dinner. We ate at 5:00 p.m. on a Monday night and our table of six was sat immediately. Great menu selection for the kids and fantastic choices for the adults. Delicious beers, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Kid review " The deep fried avocados were awesome!" " The french fries were really good" We had a diner with very restrictive diet needs and she was able to find a meal with no problem. Thumbs up!

Always consistent food and friendly staff. The only issue you will find with this spot is the crowd. It is the most popular place to get a drink or lunch in an overly crowded area. You can drop your name and walk around the village, it is a great place.

Excellent food, excellent service and great beer! 🍺 Came here with my wife and kids and had an IPA & Fish and Chips. Loved my beer and meal. They also have this fantastic kids area they played in for our whole meal. Such a smart and clutch move. Can’t recommend this place enough!

We were a party of 6. Apparently that means a "large party" so we were charged a mandatory gratuity. At which point we realized why the wait time, food and service were subpar! Food-Meh! Service-poor! Ambiance-loud! Do not recommend. We got better food and service at the bar and grill next door!

Beautiful atmosphere , kind service. However, all of the food was awful. I usually don’t leave poor reviews, but I’m trying to save another family from spending well over $200 on bland food. The spaghetti, fettuccini Alfredo, as well as the clams appetizer - all water based. Everything tasted like water and no seasoning or flavor . I was surprised beyond belief considering the other reviews. The clams had sand particles or dirt particles on the clams still as well. To be honest, the frozen meals of fettuccini at the store (Marie calendars frozen meals) have more flavor than the meals we ordered tonight. Super disappointed, however the service was excellent. We ordered the cheesecake Togo- supposed to be raspberry cheesecake however it was blueberry cheesecake with a container of raspberry puree. Definitely won’t be back , sadly. 😕

Fourteen members of my family had a special dinner at Marcello's and it was special only because of my family's goofy camaraderie. The service at Marcello's did not make the dinner special. My wine glass was empty for most of the 3 hour dinner (no exaggeration, the dinner took 3 hours). The server never checked in to take any more drink orders. Further, my entree was room temperature when it was finally served, and not very enjoyable due to the temperature. Lastly, our party was for 14 people, and they gave only three plates of bread - which was quickly eaten as it took forever to serve the salads. To add insult to injury, they added a mandatory 20% tip on the service. I usually tip 20% for good service. But, if I got service like this I would tip only about 10%.

We ordered the Penne Carbonara, which tasted exactly like Chicken Marsala, minus the chicken. While too sweet, and not what we ordered, the dish was tasty and we enjoyed it. Carbonara is one of the five classic Roman pasta dishes- a few select ingredients and the specific technique make or break the dish.

My lasagna was served cold. After 20 minutes we flagged down a different wait staff asking for our server. When she came by she was very short and did not listen to my request to have it packaged to go ,as the other 11 members of our party were finishing their meals . Again I requested it to be packaged and she took it away....5 minutes latter she returned stating was piping hot and if anyone at the table would like it ,as I didn't. Nothing could have been more wrong. It was my ordered dinner that I couldn't eat because it was refrigerator cold! I wanted it to go at this point. But her offering it to the table was inconsiderate and rude. No apologies to me. Only a rude gesture to offer my food away! Service was poor. Drinks were ordered and never delivered, I had to point it out ,and I assume it was taken off the bill. With 12 people on the ticket it was hard to determine. I definitely would not go back or recommend. Aside from mine being cold ,others enjoyed their meal. We did have reservations for 5:45. And were seated quickly.

Had been there before had the pizza. Have craved it every since. Went there tonight hardly anyone in there. The service was terrible. What I ordered was wrong it came with peppers when I complained they took it to the kitchen picked the peppers off warmed it back up and served it back to me. Missing a pepper for proof besides the taste. While I didn't pay for it I was not impressed how long it took to get food on a quiet night and how poor the service was.

It's been a while since I've been to an Italian restaurant and I was hoping this would be a reason I would like to give Italian food another try since my last experience wasn't pleasant. I am pleased to say my experience with Marcello's was great! We ordered the Salmon Piccata and it was delicious! The house bread was also very good and in my opinion it was better than the Garlic Bread. The service was friendly and checked in with us at the right time for drink refills or food. We were very full and satisfied.

The atmosphere and food were great but the service we received from Mary was terrible. Forgot half the food we ordered, didn’t refill our drinks, ignored our table the whole time. Then had the audacity to add gratuity of 20% to our bill for only 6 people. She did not fulfill even the most basic of duty’s for a waitress, let alone give any resemblance of “great service” that a tip is meant to reward.

Tonight was my first visit to this really nice restaurant. A couple of our friends took us there for dinner. The service was excellent. The ambiance was pleasant. The background noise for a crowded place was not really noticeable. We were able to have a great conversation in the bar area without raising our voices. The tables were also clean. Silverware was wrapped professionally in a linen napkin. Water and drinks were served quickly. The food came out shortly after that. I had to wait a little longer for my fish and chips. One person in our group ordered pasta. Looked appealing and did not have excessive sauce on it. She ate all of it without commenting on the flavor or texture. My wife ordered a salad with fake chicken. She enjoyed her salad. The other person had a cobb salad with chicken. It looked great, but he did not finish it because he did not like blue cheese. I had the fish and chips. Overall the beer battered fish tasted good. The volume of batter to fish ratio was acceptable. Unfortunately, they over fried the batter on two out of the four pieces so it tasted burnt. I just picked off the extra batter that was over fried. The coleslaw was good. I liked the peppery flavor. The fries were coated with corn or potato starch. They were fantastic. Would I go back to this place? Absolutely!

I hate having bad reviews for a restaurant but this place was pretty underwhelming. We came in and put our names in, and it was a table of 10 people so I'm aware that we would wait. That was not the main issue, however. The host said there was a little gap between tables, if that was okay. We were agreeable, and it was a busy night so we went to sit down. Their version of a gap was an entire aisle, and the tables were not even lined up so we had to basically sit separately for five people and five people. The berry salad I got was tolerable, and the noise inside made us barely able to have a conversation over the main table we sat at. Overall kinda disappointing. Would rather have gone back to the Sunriver Brewing company, honestly.

I had a great experience at this place! I ordered a burger with fries and a beer – everything was absolutely delicious. The food came out really quickly, and the service was excellent. Our server, Crystal, was fantastic – super friendly and attentive, constantly checking in to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for great food and top-notch service!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Village bar and Grill in Sunriver, and I must say, the food was absolutely delicious! Everything we ordered was outstanding, and I couldn't have asked for a better dining experience. Our server, CRYSTAL , was incredibly attentive and friendly. Her warm demeanor made us feel truly welcomed, and it was evident that she genuinely cared about our experience. We were so grateful for the excellent care she provided throughout our meal. A big thank you to the entire kitchen team for their fantastic dishes and to Christel for her exceptional service. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience. Best wishes, Patrick from Germany

We've been coming here for 2.5 years because the food was good. The fish and chips were amazing. The hot pastrami sando is killer (fall/winter menu) unfortunately the last 3 times we've gone the food was horrible. So many new faces. Ryan, our long time excellent server, we haven't seen in months. Service has gone from outstanding to ok. On to the food. As I said before the fish and chips here were very good. Used to be Alaskan fish and chips but recently have been changed to rockfish.. Lately they've declined so much that the last time we had them a month ago they were completely sogged out and greasy. Almost as if there were put in oil that wasn't hot enough, taken out and fried again when oil was hot. The french fries (that used to be so addicting that you can't stop eating them) we're dark brown over cooked almost burnt. This last trip we tried the pork schnitzel with butter noodles. Been so long since we've had good German food. Don't here. Their version was not a pork cutlet pounded to about a quarter inch thick and fried. Their's was a pork chop not pounded or seasoned whatsoever and medium rare. Almost rare. Butter noodles completely void of butter. I swear they were just cooked in water and put on the plate. The cabbage had zero flavor. Not even cabbage flavor. Not sure how they accomplished that. Had to ask for salt and pepper because nothing on the plate was seasoned. The table behind us also asked for salt and pepper. We even asked the server if he's had it and is it good. He said yes and it was good and huge plate of food. He was right about that. Lots of food, just not good. I went with the lemon caper salmon because I've had it before and was good. Salmon was moist and tender and cooked very well. Unfortunately, not this time. Salmon was over cooked and dry. Zucchini was tender crisp but cold. Garlic mash was best thing on the plate. Hot, garlicky and seasoning was spot on. We're not sure what has caused this decline. Something has had to have happened. We will not be coming back. And that's a bummer. It was soooooo good before. Always packed and busy. So much so that we started going early. Not anymore. I know its beginning of off season but it was dead.

Amazing spot we stopped at for lunch. Good atmosphere, the food was great and the service from Gabrielle was perfect! Went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and everything was right. Highly recommend checking them out. Don’t forget to order the Skillet Brownie

Always one of my favorite places for Fish n Chips. Highly recommend! Crystal went above and beyond to help us have a pleasant meal. She's a great asset to the company. As a fellow business owner, I'd hire her in a heartbeat.

Sintra was an extraordinary restraunt, they had amazing food although the wait for it was about 45 minutes. The staff were very friendly! And the restraunt gave really chill vibes.

1st time in Sunriver. Played with Hit Machine for a Halloween show. Lead singer said we need to go here. That I would love it. Loved it I most certainly did. Coffee ☕️ yum! Waiter had our order memorized for all 5 of us. I had the breakfast omelet. With this Chipotle holiday sauce. Epic. When I come back next. I WILL be eating here again. Amazing!

Cappuccino was excellent. Waffle with strawberries was good with real maple service extra. Pancakes are good too. The side order of ham is just slices of deli meat, so a little disappointed with the ham. The sinta potatoes are yummy, just enough spice on them.

We went 2 days in a row because it was just that good. Prices are very decent, service is amazing.

Great food and great environment. We go here every time we visit Sunriver. Only downfall is they use garbage, seed oils to cook their food.

I’m not one to take time to leave reviews but after breakfast here yesterday I had to. Shout out to our waitress Cherie who was one of the most friendly people I have ever met in the restaurant industry. She made me the absolute best iced lavender latte. She was super friendly! Definitely make sure you get some of their homemade bread (toast) and jelly. Everyone at our table loved our food. This isn’t my first time here but Cherie made an impression. I’m coming back to Sunriver in 2 weeks and hope to have another great experience eating here 😊

Our family has been enjoying the food and service at Cafe Sintra - Sunriver for almost 25 years now. Staff are always welcoming, prompt and polite. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating exists, but given popularity, plan to wait a bit to be seated. The diverse food choices never fail to please. We always leave happy and content.

They no longer have a patio. It’s purely take out. There’s not even benches or anything to sit on outside. Was bummed because I was hoping to have a beer while waiting for my pizza. Also was confusing that they took my phone number as part of the pick up order. I thought that meant they were going to text when my order was ready, but no. I went in to check 5 minutes after it was supposed to be ready (it was) and they just used the last four digits of your number to confirm the order. The pizza itself was… fine. Crust was a little too chewy for my liking. Price didn’t bother me. I’m paying for the convenience of location.

We ordered takeout for Blondies. Fast delivery! The pizza was a little doughy for my tastes and the sauce seemed off, but I considered myself a pizza snob so most pizza seems off. Would I order this again for my family? Absolutely! A great choice in Sunriver!!

They have veggie pizza for vegans, but tourists area and super duper busy, this restaurant and couple bars opened late night. So evening time is super duper busy you will wait long line, we ordered veggies pizza and pepperoni pizza. Pretty big size, so good and yummy. Crews are ok not a rude but they seemed like a tired and way too busy. Little bit pricey but tourists area and summer time is making money for them I kinda understandable. But pizza is really good.

Ordered over the phone, service was good. Pizza was doughy, bread sticks were bland. It appears that all the toppings were in the center of the pizza.

We had takeout pizza from Blondie’s. Pizza was good. I think it sat too long before we actually picked it up so it wasn’t very hot. Lots of great options for toppings and overall good pizza.

Let me tell you, we come down to Sunriver every year, and finally got Blondies. Waited two days for it, last night was a 2 hour wait. And for good reason! Me and my lady had calzones…absolutely PHENOMENAL! Our four kids had pizzas and I gotta say, Papa Pete’s was my fav up in Washington, but Blondies is my favorite pizza joint ever now. Very nice people, very good food, just know, you’re gonna have to wait to get some due to the amount of orders, but it will be worth it. (I don’t have photos, the foods all gone…)

I made the mistake of ordering a pizza that was advertised as having "Blondie's Pesto Sauce", not realizing it would be mixed with marinara. That combination wasn't great. The next time we went in we asked if we could order a pesto base without the marinara but they told us the sauce is pre-mixed. However, despite the lack of sauce options, the pizza is decent and the staff (mostly teens) are polite.

I recently checked out a local burger joint, and it was a bit of a mixed bag. The atmosphere is a bit of a surprise—what seems like a hole-in-the-wall from the outside turns out to be pretty spacious once you're inside. It has a cozy, no-frills vibe, which I appreciated. The customer service was fantastic—friendly and attentive staff that made us feel right at home. As for the food, the flavors were good overall. I ordered two burgers: one was juicy and cooked perfectly, while the other came out a bit overcooked. Still, the taste was solid, so it didn’t ruin the experience. The tots were a standout—crispy and golden with the perfect amount of seasoning, and the ranch dipping sauce was top-notch. It was one of the best ranches I’ve had in a while. The price seemed fair for the portion sizes, and given the quality of the food and the service, it felt like a good value. While the overcooked burger was a bit of a downer, the rest of the meal made up for it, and I would definitely consider coming back. Overall, a solid spot for a casual burger outing.

It was a nice enough place....but the food was very good burgers and fries salads and desserts sodas tea lemonade and the rum and Cokes were great. Not at all a bad place to go for as small as it is. Everyone enjoyed their dinners and drinks to say the least. I had the con salad I think is what they called but damn it was so good the bacon ham blue cheese crumbles and more and the raspberry vinegarett was so good. Had it on the side didn't think it would go well with blue cheese ,but was so delish we will be returning and would recommend this place absolutely.

We stopped here for lunch after visiting the Newberry National Volcanic Monument. Overall, we enjoyed eating out at this restaurant. The employees were welcoming and made sure we were satisfied with our food choices. Veggie burgers and gluten free options are available. We loved the coleslaw……delicious!!

Great smoked brisket with Swiss and mushrooms along with sweet potato fies. Hand made margarita Great service. Great Elk Brie and Blue sliders with fries. Enjoyable meal

Clean place, great food. GF options and I could get a vegie patty burger (taste like chili bean,peas,green beans ,corn.) It was good. And my husband could still get his Hamburger. Fries where fresh and not frozen then fried. And we had the GF mozzarella cheese sticks and marinara Amazing 👏. It was a hit for lunch. $40 with tip. Not bad. Lots of TVs for sports fans. I think I counted 6.

First review ever made. The people working there were sweet and I could tell it’s a local family business. I was very disappointed in the food. It was inedible. We ordered 10 wings and two burgers to go. The wings were burnt to a crisp and dry. The sauces that came on the side were gross. The mango habanero was watery and the Asian sauce was bad too. Both burgers were so over cooked we couldn’t eat those either. Coleslaw was bitter and lacked flavor. Tots, ranch, and bleu cheese were fine. Not impressed with the food and very disappointed in spending $50 on a dinner we were unable to enjoy.

If you want a burger that doesn’t need any condiments then, this is the place to visit. The burger and tots were delicious 😋! I almost fainted when I bit into my burger. The bread is so soft and good, it can be eaten by itself.

We’ve been coming here for years. Consistently good breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I have to say this last time we were in the food was absolutely delicious. I’ve had steaks in “supposedly “ some of the best steak houses in the states. The Lodge Kitchen steak was 🔥. And you can’t go wrong with the view.

Came for an early dinner with no reservation and it was delicious! Dani made our experience so much better. Never had to ask her to refill our soda or glass of water. She was very attentive and provided exceptional service. God Bless you Dani! Charcuterie was my favorite!

Great atmosphere. Great service. Spendy. We shared a porterhouse for dinner which was very flavorful! Crab omelet, steak and eggs and biscuits and gravy for breakfast. Gravy was not your average white gravy, but had such a great flavor! The mimosa was picture perfect! They had a bloody Mary and mimosa bar on Sunday.

Date night dinner success! Food is overall good, service was amazing. We ordered the crab pasta and it was tasty. Atmosphere is very pretty and great view.

Dani was incredibly friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. She was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. The food was absolutely amazing, every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented.

Nice mellow environment. Only had a couple groups seated in the afternoon when we went. Get the Bloody Mary if you come here, it was superb. The food was excellent as well. Good portion size and quality was more than fair for the price. Overall great experience. Kudos to Larry our waiter who was very helpful and attentive.

Thank you Dani for making our evening so special! Amazing dinner, Two days in a row! We really enjoyed our porterhouse steak and crab pasta! Barata Appetizer was so delicious! Don’t forget the peanut butter pie. We’re so glad we found this restaurant!

We arrived into town late and weren’t sure where to eat dinner. Based on other reviews, we walked in to South Bend Bistro and luckily they were able to get us in! It was incredible. The best chicken I’ve ever had. Everyone we interacted with that worked there expressed how much they loved the food and it came across as genuine and honest- the food was delicious and they had a great n/a beer!

Exceptional. I would give more than 5 stars if possible. Our meal was superb! I was smiling all the way through it. Creamy whipped butter for our bread, Baked Brie and Harvest Salad for our starters, delightfully presented with flavorful accoutrements. (People next to us loved their scallops.) I had the special, Braised Short Ribs, which were beefy, flavorful, fork tender and enhanced with the evening's wine special, a buttery, bold, smooth cab. My spouse had the Berkshire Pork Chop and enjoyed it as well. His recommended wine pairing, a Nebbiolo, was good. The wine list is well curated. We topped off this fine meal with Creme Brulee (topped with fresh strawberries) and Pot de Creme - luscious chocolate! We were served by the enthusiastic co-owner/sommelier who show joy in what he does. Seating in the restaurant is tight, making it easy to hear others’ conversation.

We love coming to the South Bend Bistro to indulge in higher end service and 5* meals. Our dinner included the filet mignon and the special (seafood stew). We also enjoyed the lobster dip and goat cheese/beets plate. Very yummy! Our server David was awesome. The drinks were great, and the mocktail he made for our daughter was unbelievably good. These guys know their stuff. Definitely coming back for more greatness! Thank you

The South Bend Bistro is our culinary sanctuary, and after countless visits, it remains an unrivaled favorite! David and Cully’s impeccable service makes every trip extraordinary—their warmth, attentiveness, and genuine care make us feel like family. David, in particular, is a wine wizard, consistently pairing our dishes with glasses that leave us, as wine connoisseurs, thoroughly impressed with his spot-on selections. Our latest visit was a masterclass in flavor. We started with expertly mixed cocktails: an Old Fashioned that’s bold yet perfectly balanced and a French Margarita with vibrant, zesty flair. The sea scallops with bacon and asparagus were a sublime blend of tender and savory, while the butternut squash soup was a velvety, heartwarming delight. Our salads were fresh and crisp, priming us for the main event. The pork dish was a succulent triumph, and the salmon and chicken were flawlessly prepared, each bite showcasing the kitchen’s artistry. David’s wine pairings elevated every course, with selections that complemented the flavors so perfectly we were left in awe. For dessert, the raspberry sorbet was a bright, tangy burst, and the flourless chocolate cake was pure decadence—rich, fudgy, and divine. The South Bend Bistro never misses a beat. The food is consistently stellar, the presentation impeccable, and David and Cully’s service, paired with David’s wine expertise, makes every visit a five-star experience. We’ll keep coming back for more!

Great food, David was our waiter. The drinks were fantastic. We had the smoked brie, Halibut, and Tagliatelle with salmon which were all excellent. The Peach tart desert was underwhelming. Great night and food overall.

We took some friends to South Bend Bistro while they were here on vacation. Atmosphere was really nice out on the patio. The salads were delicious and came out quickly. But, after we ordered our meal, it took almost 30 minutes for it to come out. Three of the four meals we ordered were the Halibut. Unfortunately all three were dry, but the rest of the food on the plate was really good. We ate about half the fish and you could actually see how dry it was by just looking at it. Didn't see the waitress again until almost the end of the meal when we brought the issue to her attention. She apologized and then brought us our bill.

We finally got to come here, and boy it was delicious! We sat out on the patio, which I would definitely recommend! Crab cakes were amazing, and the harvest salad was so good with that dressing and butter leaf salad. For the entree, I had the halibut, which I could eat every day! I would definitely recommend this place, super friendly staff, great food, and just a great experience all around!

Pros - best verde dip ever, comes with your chips and dip when you sit down!!! Tamales de Puerco Rocked Great view of river at a handful of tables, feels like the restaurant is practically hanging over the water. Has a nice mom and pop feel Cons- decor and atmosphere is a bit outdated and just okay Prices are on the steep side, plan on $20-35 per plate plus drinks and tip, but given the quality of food and location it is understandable No fajitas on menu Tipping screen options start at 20% and goes to 30%, maybe just an odd pet peeve of mine that I shouldn’t even note

The food sucked, ordered the beef tacos and it tasted very bland, server was nice and let me try the chicken and pork but they were just as bland but dry this time despite sitting in juices. Bathroom was absolutely filthy and disgusting at the same time. Very good server, not good food. They also charge for extra baskets of chips without telling you until you run out. The server was very accommodating and let me try the chicken and pork after I didn't like the beef, but the food just sucked.

We dinned here with a large group and most everybody enjoyed the experience. They have a mix of Mexican and Peruvian dishes, many of which we ordered. The only dish that wasn't thoroughly enjoyed was the chicken burrito, based solely on the chickens slightly bland flavoring. The burrito ordered with beef was much better, as was everything else. The restaurant offers a nice view of the Deschutes River and the staff is quite helpful and friendly. Overall, a safe recommendation if you're in the area and looking for some Mexican or Peruvian fare. Oh, and do yourself a favor by ordering a side of their excellent guacamole!

They are open for inside dining with proper social distancing. We shared a plate of 3 tacos, rice, beans, chips and salsa. And a Tranquilo Especial draft beer. The view is really nice of all the multi-color kayaks. 6/8/22 They also outdoor dining with a great view of the Marina.

Let me start by saying that this place is great. Great service and food. So I’ve read some review here that are 1 Star and our experience was not that! Can we all just take a moment and be patient with the situation at hand? Sure it was a bit slow but not bad. Hey, getting back to normal takes some time. So what if you need to wait an extra 5 minutes to get an order for drinks or food. They’re working hard and doing their best with the staff they have. AND with a smile! In the end, the food was amazing. We started with the Guac and for mains had the Peruvian Baby Back Ribs and the Carne Asdas. We loved it. For drinks we ordered the Super Margaritas and the Mojitos. We loved both. I always recommend 100% agave drinks if you want to avoid headaches or hangovers. I’ve seen people complain about overpriced, weak Margarita drinks but honestly, the pour is perfect. Also, oversized and served in a salted rim with a half full shaker on the side which is basically a 2 for 1. This is a resort town so expect to pay resort prices. Enjoy the friendly service, the view of the river and creative cuisine that doesn’t disappoint.

Yum city USA. This place is delicious! Staff is very friendly. Lots of food and drink options and a great river view. Enjoyable and comfortable atmosphere for a date night or a night out with friends and or family.

We went for the Peruvian food as my wife is 1/2 Peruvian. The food was good, service was average. My wife and I both had the Loma Saltados and enjoyed the bananas flameada (Foster) for dessert. As a whole we ordered 1 of each item on the dessert menu, and a number of other entrees. No one in our party had any complaints about the food. We would definitely eat there again.

I am a huge fan of Mexican food and have visited more than 200 Mexican restaurants in last 3 years but this one is something else... everything I have tried (an I have tried almost every dish) was more than perfect..food is fresh and portions are huge! If you are ever in Sunriver or Bend you have to pay them a visit it will be well worth it. Ask for server Oscar or Carlos they are the best! And of course don't forget the best margaritas in town (hibiscus margarita or classic one)!;)

The food here is decent. We eat here a couple times a year and it's very consistent. The service is good also. The area is pretty small and can get very crowded. Like all sunriver restaurants we try to avoid peak times of year.

Delicious food and very nice wait staff! The food portions were generous and fresh. Everything tasted great and it was a well rounded experience. There was also an impressive variety of margaritas on the menu. The menu was very large and plentiful.

This is the best Mexican food! Super friendly staff, large portions and DELICIOUS food. We make sure to have this at least once every trip to Sunriver.

My wife and I were craving cheesy, crispy food and she wanted a pina colada. Mexican it is! El Caporal is a restaurant in the village in Sunriver, OR. Inside is average size, clean and mildly decorated with about 15 tables. We went on a Wednesday for an early dinner, about 5 pm, and there were 2 other tables occupied. Bathrooms were ok, stocked and neither messy nor great smelling, just ok. Our server, Cesar, was awesome from beginning until end. Chips and salsa were served along with ice water. The salsa is delicious - a bit spicy and smooth, not chunky. My wife got her pina colada ($9) and we had the cheese crispy appetizer. It was a large flour tortilla fried flat, then topped with cheddar cheese and baked in the oven ($8.50), nothing special. Her entree was one of the house specials, camarones al mojo de ajo ($24). Very tasty. I am a huge fan of taco salads in the shell, so I ordered the shrimp salad ($19.95), excited to see some new variations of fillings, thinking it would come in the shell, but to my dissatisfaction it didn't. Even though on the menu it says the salads come in a shell. Nor did I get a choice of dressing, and the ranchero cheese was missing. The salads was very bland, and the shrimp seemed boiled instead of grilled or sautéed. I'm so glad that I added on a side beef tamale, which was deliciously soft and hot! Oh well, I know to ask next time. The menu is quite large, and covers all the choices you usually have at a Mexican restaurant, plus some. Perhaps it was the cook that day, or that's just the way things are served, but some sour cream or salsa sides would have gone a long way. Maybe not in Sunriver, but in my opinion there are much better Mexican restaurant choices out there, such as Hola.

My family and I stopped here for lunch. This review is just about our sever. We have no complaints about the food itself. We ordered carne asada burritos but when we were served it was just steak. We chocked it up to a miscommunication and said sorry we ordered carne asada burritos. Instead of just making the order right the server proceeded to argue with us and said we were wrong very rudely. Honestly we probably would have just eaten what he brought if he was a little more courteous. In addition to being super rude when we got the check he added 20% gratuity automatically and we had to tell him to remove it. We saw the note on the menu that larger parties have gratuity added automatically but we only came in with 4 people. I feel that this is super unethical and the service was the most horrible I have ever had.

I want to like this place but the service was questionable. It was a busy Tuesday evening when we stopped in. The young lady at the counter let us know if would be about a 30 minute wait. We thought this wouldn't be an issue so left our phone number and she promised to call when a table inside was ready. 45 minutes later we decided to go back and check in. There are currently 3 empty tables inside. The young lady clears a table outside for us and we remind her we wanted an indoor table. We get shown to a booth. No explanation on why she never called. The young man who was our waiter was great. He did forget to put alcohol into one of our drinks but he owned that and remade it. Again, he was great. Food was fine. The camarones was 60% mushroom and you had to do some hunting to find the shrimp. The tables are packed in tight as you'd expect from a place trying to maximize those vacationer dollars. Overall if you went in when it wasn't busy you might like it more.

Great and food and very nice servers. I ate here twice and all of the food was good. Pictured are their wings, side house salad, the prime rib French dip, and bang bang shrimp.

Staff seemed nice and trained half the stores on the lot are horribly ran so it was a breath of fresh air to go to a place with simple transparency. They told me 20 min wait for to go order and food was really good. I got fish tacos and buffalo wings but honestly the fish tacos are big next time I’d just stick to the fish tacos.

Mashed potato bowl was amazing and my wife enjoyed her pulled pork sandwich and cowboy beans. Tanner did a great job while we were here.

Incredible place! Great food. Friendly service! Don't miss Taco Tuesday for $3 margaritas and incredible tuna tacos ($17). Love this cozy, pleasant, down-to-earth eatery! Other nights include great prime rib etc. outstanding!

Visited with two friends. Place was very busy, full of locals and regulars which is always a good sign. Our server, Molly, was awesome. She really added to our dining experience. Two of us enjoyed the Elk Burger and one the Portobello burger. All of our meals were excellent. Will definitely return. Highly recommended.

Had the pulled pork sandwich and cowboy beans. I found it very sweet. Just may be my combination or me not having my normal sweet tooth. As a small business owner I always understand perfect is not always possible. We will be back in April. Was a short vacation.

Had high hopes based on the reviews, but the overall experience was pretty middling. Holiday weekend might have an impact, but proper planning mitigates this. Hard to recommend to friends and guests. Infrequent check backs from our server, who also seemed hurried. No silverware, napkins, or plates delivered with food. Had to go to the bar to grab some items from lack of service. Interior was pretty noisy, and could benefit from sort of sound dampening. Drinks took over 20 minutes to be delivered to the table. Food was great, once it arrived.

We went to watch a game in the bar area. The atmosphere was great. Pretzel was huge, and the cheese that came with it was rich and goes a long way. Deviled eggs did not have much flavor. We did see the onion rings. They were very large and looked like a good amount for the price.

The server was nice; she seemed busy so when we had issues with our food or wanted additional food it took a bit to get her attention. The food was VERY disappointing, especially for the cost. We ordered steak frites medium rare and the fish and chips. It took about 45 minutes to come out and the steak was very well done, instead of medium rare. The tartar sauce has Tabasco sauce in it, which isn't listed in the menu, which was very frustrating to discover. We sent the steak back, and a new steak promptly came out, cooked properly. 30 minutes after that, we got the attention of the server to ask for dessert menu. We were told the specialty sorbet was pineapple, which we ordered. It took another 15 minutes for it to come out, and the sorbet was definitely not pineapple. Waited again for the server to come and requested the correct dessert. All together, we spent 2 hours at the restaurant having to wait extra time for the correct food to be delivered. The tab for this lackluster meal was $125. Will not be going here again.

The setting is very lovely and my blackberry mule mocktail was quite delicious. The fries are great, my steak came well done even though I ordered it medium. I requested a replacement and the replacement they brought was still medium well and the cut of meat was pretty tough. I was surprised when my check still came out full priced despite the fact that my meal was pretty disrupted and I was rather full from the fries and salad so I couldn’t even enjoy the steak that was still overcooked. I had to prompt the waitress to ask the manager if they could take a portion of my meal off as it really did kind of ruin the meal. Otherwise a good experience, but would not order the steak salad again.

Oh my gosh everything was so good. Only complaint is I wish the Mac and cheese was a little more saucy. But holy cow. Will come back!

Staff was excellent both times we went. Very helpful and courteous. The food was great - pub fare but meats (burger, steak, etc) perfectly cooked and good quality. Kids loved the chicken tenders and strawberry lemonade. The only real downside would be the prices (and to some extent steak portions) but that was to be expected. I suppose I'd like to see them offer some of the same craft beers as at the downstairs bar as they have a much better selection / quality. Wine selection kinda made up for it though. If I could've given 3.5 stars I would have but the prices and portions (eg the $38 for 6-7 strips of steak) just kept me from justifying 4. Would still recommend!

A nice classy place to grab a cocktail. We were lucky enough to get to see some live music, and have a table full of ladies to dance with! The place got pretty busy when a whole wedding party showed up. But the staff kept right up! Sit on the patio for an amazing view!

I gave this place a five-star rating because I enjoyed their drinks, food, service, and the ambiance. Keep in mind that this restaurant belongs to the Sunriver Resort. It practically is located in the middle of nowhere, unless you're counting a handful of all American restaurants/bars in the nearby Village or if you're willing to drive to Bend for more options. During our visits this year, we had their fish and chips (must try) and the Lodge burgers. If you like beer battered fish, you have to try this. The batter was always cooked to perfection, the batter was crunchy/crispy on the outside and the inside was cooked completely (there was no wet dough). The fish and batter ratio was perfect, too. There was a lot of fish. When ordering the burger, I added bacon and a fried egg. I liked the burger so much because I could taste the charred meat. Last but not least, the cocktails were also tasty and strong. Don’t forget to order desserts. I especially liked their crème brûlée. We were lucky to get the same waitress for our dinner visits. I think her name is Ann. She was very sweet and attentive. Well, the service we received from other staff was decent, too. No complaints. Prices were decent for a resort restaurant.

Im sure the ice cream is great but they never gave it to me. My family and I ordered separately but at the same time, and even after they got reminded after about a half hour, they kept working on other peoples orders. Also the shorter lady there was physically pushing her coworkers around seemed like a nightmare to work with. I felt bad for the workers. Better luck next time :/

I have to give at least two stars due to prior experiences here, and the ice cream is good in my opinion. It's expensive, but what isn't nowadays? However, having worked in high-volume food service and management positions, I have to wonder what is going on here. I came in with my family to a full lobby. About 10 or so people in line, with around 20 in lobby. Something like 6-7 employees behind line. Our order was a single scoop in a cup, and 3 milkshakes. I am not exaggerating when I say that the entirety of the lobby in front of us, as well as people who walked in behind us, were out of the store with their ice cream by the time we received one shake. It wasn't just that the employee that took our ticket was slow - he was likely in training, and I can forgive and understand that. What I cannot understand however, is the complete lack of assistance ANY of the other employees offered this kid, even the manager, until after we said something. I haven't worked anywhere where one person is given a ticket and expected to fill out the entire ticket. I cannot fathom that employees at this store seem to not be stationed at specific line positions for their entire shift. I can see that employee turnover is high, and perhaps this is simply the nature of the town. But there seems to be something falling apart on a deeper level with the way the line is operating, and the attitude of the employees behind the counter.

Goody’s in Sunriver is a must-visit! We stopped in and had such a great experience. The ice cream was delicious with so many flavors to choose from, and the servings were very generous. The chocolates and candy are also worth trying—everything tasted fresh and made with care. The staff was super friendly and patient while we looked around, which made the visit even better. The shop itself is clean, welcoming, and has that classic Sunriver charm. Prices are a little on the higher side, but the quality and experience make it well worth it. Whether you’re looking for a sweet treat after the pool, a fun stop while walking through the village, or something special to take home, Goody’s is a perfect choice. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in Sunriver!

Goody’s Chocolate & Ice Cream offers a variety of sweet treats. I enjoyed their truffles, while my family indulged in their delicious ice cream. Everything was incredibly tasty and satisfying. Moreover, their prices are quite reasonable, providing excellent value for the quality of treats you receive.

This ice cream is always the highlight to my day! Me and my family have been guilty of coming 7 nights in a row 😁

A popular spot that often has long lines. The ice cream, particularly the vanilla bean, was slightly too frozen and less sweet than expected. The staff, composed mostly of young team members, appeared diligent and hardworking

Normally this place has long lines going out the door during popular times, so expect waiting time. Ice cream is great and more than a dozen choices, but it is on the expensive side. The people behind the counter work they're rear- ends off and seem very customer caring.

Snowy walk to a bakery, couldn't ask for a better way to spend time with family! Such a cute shop. We really loved the Bigfoot donut!

I ordered a custom cake and brown butter chocolate chip cookies from Hot Lava Bakery for a party, and everything exceeded expectations! The ordering process was seamless— the team was incredibly knowledgeable, communicative, and helpful from start to finish. Our order was ready exactly when promised, and they even coordinated local delivery, which was super convenient and handled perfectly. The cake was both stunning in presentation and absolutely delicious—rich, flavorful, and beautifully done. The cookies were a 10/10—perfectly chewy with that amazing brown butter flavor. Highly recommend Hot Lava Bakery whether you’re stopping in for pastries in the morning or planning something special. Can’t wait to order again!

The lattes (best around, by far) are only part of the story. Delicious baked goods. Cupcakes, cinnamon buns, donuts etc…are all exceptionally well done. Have tried a couple of the sandwiches too, and they are really outstanding!!! My fave is the Broken Top. There may be a line up when you visit (it’s that kind of good), but it moves quickly. Staff are always friendly, helpful and knowledgeable! Bonus: lots of parking and seating inside and out.

This place has the best doughnuts! We always visit when in Sunriver. Limited inside seating (1 table), so bring a jacket if it’s cooler.

We came here and the food was delicious. Service was a bit slow and took some time to get food but this was due to a surge in orders and traffic on a Sunday morning. All of their pastries and sandwiches were very good. Scones were next level. I would recommend that they add more seating outside. It is a bit expensive but the product is excellent.

We got two coffees, a cinnamon roll and an empanada. All are absolutely delicious. This coffee is both more affordable but better than other locations in town. And the cinnamon roll is so good!

Pastries pretty good but couldn't believe that I spent $67 on just a few items plus the chocolate chip cookie I had tasted stale. Prices weren't marked on items but I guess it follows the saying "if you have to ask then you can't afford it". I love bakeries and seek them out anywhere I go. I've found better pastries for far less but I guess the location in this luxury area drives up the prices.

Can’t do better than Josie K’s. It’s always my choice for camping or long road trips. Love the Dagwood and the Roast Beef, but the meatloaf is excellent too. Friendly, happy staff who take pride in their work. You won’t find better value for money. Bonus tip: Consider getting extra sandwiches for the next day (most keep very well). You will not be disappointed by that decision. Extra bonus: the take home lasagna is really good too. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Friday special sandwich was tasty and perfectly sized. Tuna salad was good, but I loved the tiny cookie slice I got with my meal. Perfect idea for a sweet treat that isn't overwhelming. Staff was friendly, and well trained to keep the massive number of orders moving. Example of a fantastically run local business.

This sandwich was so delicious it literally made me laugh. It was a special of the day- ham and cheese on a warm croissant with tomato and crisp onion and dijon. I think I blacked out eating it because it was so good

First time, and definitely not the last time, ordering from this deli. We picked up three sandwiches and all were well-made and delicious. One of the best Club sandwiches. Best of all, they were reasonably priced which is not something I feel like I’m saying a lot lately.

The Dagwood and piggy sandwiches are so delicious and worth every dime, service was quick I would drive 3 hrs just to get em. The employees were friendly and greet you once you enter I’d recommend to anyone when you’re in the area.

A great spot to grab lunch. Friendly staff and they got my order out quickly even in the middle of the lunch rush. One of the best sandwiches I've ever had.

Probably the best sandwich I've had in Central Oregon. The place was busy at lunch, but the service atmosphere and food were amazing. I grabbed a homemade lasagna to bring home for dinner and it was divine. We didn't have any leftovers as my kids and husband loved it as well. Anytime I find myself in Sunriver I will be eating here.

To start: the pizza was tasty and no complaints. The bottom was a little overdone. We did a simple build your own with mushroom and olives. The salad was standard. The server and staff were very nice. The reason for the rating: we arrived at 6ish pm, were seated, ordered food. The salad came out reasonably, and then there was an odd 40-45 min of no service and no sign from wait staff. We waited so long the ranch on our plate was dry. Our server didn't check on us in that entire time, and when our food came out, there was no mention of the long wait, no apology or acknowledgement, which leads me to believe that is normal wait time for pizza. If you have small children, probably bring them a snack or some sort of entertainment since you will be waiting a while for your meal.

Our family heard the Fold had great pizza so we went in with high expectations and I'm glad to say we were not disappointed. The kids ordered slices and the adults ordered the Bee Sting and a couple salads. We also ordered fries for the group. Everything was extremely good. Nice to have a great place to go so close to where we were staying.

My wife an I went here multiple nights in a row. Bee sting pizza is outstanding. Cocktails were insanely good, especially the "huckleberry mule." We couldn't believe a pizza place made cocktails that good. We had our dog with us but they only allow service dogs. So, one of their employees eagerly set up a couple of chairs outside and gave our dog a water bowl. He made us our drinks and accommodated our very specific food requests. He was clearly seasoned at his job and we had a fantastic experience because of it.

Took us 2 hours to get two pizzas. Our waitress never came around to offer refills on our drinks. We didn’t even have the basic table fare until after our food arrived. The food WAS good however the service has to be the absolute top 10 worst I’ve ever experienced. If you value your time do not eat here. Ever.

They appeared to possibly be understaffed, and the staff seemed to wish customers would disappear. We arrived 50 min before closing and waited over 20 minutes with no acknowledgment. Tables were half empty, and there seemed to be 3 servers and a bar tender. Finally, we approached a server and asked if they were still seating. He seemed flustered by the question, waved us away, and said to ask someone else. Nobody would make eye contact with us, and it was really a horrible experience. We waited a while longer until we realized we weren't going to be able to get food anywhere soon as it was getting late. Their food smelled good, but I'm not sure I would try them again. Also, we were not the only customers who received this rude behavior. If they were not able to service clientele, they needed to let them know or close early.

Fold Craft is a pizza place that ran out of pepperoni and sausage or lighter beers in peak summer season, and took 65 minutes to provide a take out cheese pizza after assuring 40 max. They are understaffed and the lack of food/inventory and turnaround suggests a management team only equipped for October to May, minus ski season, and not up to snuff during peak summer tourism. Really disappointing because pizza was pretty good, but execution was bad. Kids were hungry, and fold craft changed my order twice over 30 minutes before starting my order. Also served their friends before other customers who were waiting longer, which is a pizza foul. Bummer.

Stopped in after swimming up the road, we were greeted by a friendly server who ended up taking great care of us. My pizza was hot, loaded with pepperoni & a generous portion! Highly recommend if your looking for a fast & quality by the slice of pizza!!
