    One of my favorite places in Bend. Their food is incredible with great complexity and the wagyu melts in your mouth. Drinks and wine are fantastic, waiters/staff are always friendly and knowledgeable, and vibe is great. Highly recommend this restaurant.

    Had an incredible dinner to celebrate a special occasion this evening. Sarah was incredible and created a classy, personalized, first class experience unlike any other dining experience in Bend. Thanks for the amazing food and for making BT the best restaurant in Bend!

    Valentine's Day Negroni

    If you're looking for a steak experience that borders on a religious experience, Bos Taurus is the place to be. My husband and I celebrated Valentine's Day here, and let's just say--it was love at first bite. We started with classic cocktails (because what's romance without a little old-school charm?) and fresh oysters that tasted like they were personally escorted from the ocean to our table. But the real star of the night? The A5 Wagyu tasting menu--a parade of rich, buttery, melt-in-your-mouth perfection, paired with their "experiences" (a fancy way of saying sauces and spices, but trust me, they are an experience). The restaurant is small and packed, but instead of feeling cramped, it had a buzzing, lively atmosphere--like you're at the coolest dinner party in town. We were also fascinated by the off-menu choices (a secret menu? Intriguing...), and next time, we're diving into those. Shoutout to our server, who was as friendly as they come, and our waiter, who patiently answered every one of our many, many steak-related questions. He might as well have a PhD in Wagyu. Final verdict: Bos Taurus is a must-visit for steak lovers and food adventurers alike. We came for the steak, stayed for the experience, and left already planning our next visit. Just be warned--you might fall in love, and not just with your date.

    Bos salad. The bits of pork belly was nice. The hard dried tomatoes were not good and vinegar in the blue cheese dressing was off putting.

    Great service! So that gets 5 stars. But comfort level is low, quality of good did not meet expectations and prepare to spend a LOT of money. I ordered the $120 Bos A-5 steak sampling, the Bos wedge salad and a glass of wine. It was $180.00. Now that's fine and even expected but I was disappointed that there was gristle in the A5, the salad was overly vinegar'ed and the seating was not comfortable at the bar. But, service covers a multitude of sins, so I may try again - but not enthusiastically.

    Excellent establishment. Top tier steak options and nothing to complain about. Looking for a date night out or some really good steak, this is your best choice in bend. Service was top notch. Explaining the details of each and every steak.

    Wagyu Tasting

    I was finally able to get a table with my best friend from the first grade. Our wives were back home and we decided to celebrate my "almost" birthday and the sale of his family business. My friend is a regular at Bos Taurus so I let him lead the way. We started with cocktails and later had the Hama Hama oysters followed by a Compressed Caesar for my friend and a Bos Wedge for myself. We also had a special treat called the Wagyu Tasting that had three one ounce portions of perfectly marbled beef accompanied by three pairing sauces. For our entrees I ordered the 8oz filet and my friend had the 16oz ribeye. We also shared the Yukon Gold Potato Puree and Sauteed Rapini & Spinach for our side dishes. A nice touch that they have at Bos Taurus is you get to select your choice of steak knives from around the world representing the U.S., France and Japan. Since we were celebrating we had a bottle of the Chateau Leoville Barton Saint-Julien 2008 to enjoy with our steak and sides. It was a dinner to remember. All of our selections were perfectly paced and the food was magnificent. Service was excellent and they have a full time sommelier to assist you with your wine selections. Cost for dinner for two people when you are celebrating 50 years of friendship? Priceless. Thank you for dinner my friend.

    Had to try both A5 options side by side. Well worth it
    Sean P.

    Amazing service and food. The steak as always is amazing. We did the A5 options side by side to compare.

    Miyako K.

    Small place. Good food, uses expensive ingredients. It's good to try once. The wagyu is fine. I wouldn't get the Foie gras mousse as a dessert next time.

    Fried brussels sprouts 5/5 stars (so good)

    Small restaurant, sat at bar. Drinks and steaks were good. Service was a little slow. Bar tender was busy, as expected.

    May we bring in a bottle of wine and if so what the bottle fee would be, please?

    Yes, we have brought wine in a couple of times, I believe the corkage fee was $25.00

    So, there a 2 oz minimum for the A5. That that mean I can actually just order 2 oz? Also, is everything served family style? My wife and I find family style easier to share versus eating off each other's plates?

    Yes, you can order just the 2 oz. if you choose.

    Is there a dress code?

    Nothing specific. Just keep in mind the price point of their menu and dress accordingly. I would not go in with shorts, flip-flops and a ratty blouse. But it's not like a tie and sport coat are necessary either.

    Do you have any vegetarian options? As my party would be all meat eaters, and would still like to enjoy your food myself. 😎

    Hi Jill We do have a few vegetarian options that rotate usually and also salads/apps/small plates… Read more

    Are you open for lunch?

    Yep! Starting at 12p.

    We were staying the night at McMenamins in Bend while traveling from California to Washington, and…read moreone of the highlights of our stay was hunting down the speakeasy bar, The Broom Closet. Half the fun is searching the property for it--and don't worry, I won't spoil where we found it! Once inside, it truly felt like a hidden gem. The space is cozy and intimate, with comfortable places to sit and a full bar that feels tucked away from the rest of the property. It was especially festive during the holidays, with Christmas drink specials adding to the charm. I ordered the NA Merry Cherry, which was gingery, slightly spicy, and super refreshing--a great non-alcoholic option. My wife had The Countess and said it was absolutely delicious. Between the atmosphere, the drinks, and the fun of discovering it, The Broom Closet was a total win.

    Follow the alley. Trust me…read more You know those places you stumble into and immediately think, "Yep...this is my kind of spot"? That was San Simón for me. At first, walking down the alley in downtown Bend, I honestly was not sure what we were about to find. Then we started seeing little fire pit pods, heated huts, glowing candles, and people tucked away having cocktails. It instantly felt cool without trying too hard. Walking into San Simón felt like stepping into some funky speakeasy hidden in plain sight. Dark lighting, moody atmosphere, David Bowie playing in the background, wild artwork on the walls that makes you stop and stare for a second. Just a great vibe all around. The kind of place where you sit down and immediately relax into the evening. The cocktails were excellent. Not overdone, not syrupy, just really balanced and well made. One of our favorites was the "Some Positive Feedback," which came with this sugar rim that looked awesome and added just enough sweetness without overpowering the drink. Bright citrus flavor, refreshing, smooth, and dangerously easy to drink. Then we asked the bartender if they could just make us something off the cuff. We said vodka, lemon and lime forward, not too sweet, maybe a little spice. They absolutely nailed it. Crisp, refreshing, layered citrus flavor with just enough heat on the back end to keep it interesting. Honestly one of those cocktails where everybody at the table takes a sip and immediately goes, "Oh wow." As a bourbon guy, I was also pleasantly surprised with the whiskey selection. The bartender recommended Stafford's Reserve, an Oregon bourbon, and I am glad I listened. Smooth, approachable, a little sweet up front with some spice on the finish. Easy sipping bourbon that fit the whole vibe of the place perfectly. What really made the night though was the staff. Everybody was friendly in that genuine way where you feel welcomed instead of "served." By the end of the night it honestly felt like we had been there before, even though it was our first visit. The outdoor setup deserves some love too. Bend cooled down at night, but the fire pits and heaters kept everything comfortable. We could have easily stayed another couple hours just hanging out. Pricing felt fair for the quality of drinks and atmosphere. This is not a dive bar pretending to be fancy. It is a genuinely cool cocktail spot that knows exactly what it is. If you are in Bend and enjoy craft cocktails, bourbon, cool music, quirky atmosphere, and places with personality, go find San Simón. Half the fun is finding it tucked down the alley in the first place.
