                  Always excellent , we have being dining at South Bend Bistro every time we visit Sunriver. And everything is always excellent! We do miss the outdoor tent and heaters that were available in the deck after COVID . It made for a very cozy, ambiance. Wish they were allowed to have the outdoor tent again . But inside us beautiful with a very elevated dining experience.

                  We love sitting at the bar when it’s just the two of us. The bartenders are engaging and entertaining. The food is always great. We did notice that the portions have gotten smaller especially the salad.

They always pair our meal with an amazing bottle of wine to complement the dishes. 10/10 - thanks staff at South Bend
