    Chicken parm sandwich and mozzarella cheese sticks
    G R.

    Great service, real nice employees and quick. Had the chicken parm sandwich and mozzarella sticks. The sandwich was filling, flavorful and tasty. The chicken itself was tender and paired well with the sauce. The mozzarella sticks were ordered "on a lark" and turned out to be awesome. The hot honey drizzle was fantastic. This was a "to go" order and eaten at home.

    This is it!

    By far the BEST chicken Parmesan sandwich I have ever eaten. Crispy, thinly breaded and perfectly fried flattened pieces of succulent chicken (two layers!), with Parmesan cheese and tomato based sauce, between an absolutely perfectly toasted sandwich/sub with a crispy inside but softer outside. An explosion of flavor and textures in my mouth. Unfortunately the sandwich is HUGE (no, really, it is way big) so now I have to eat the other half at home some other time. And the people serving were so nice! 10 out of 10!

    I was drawn here by some positive reviews posted from local food reviewers and media, and by Ale Apothecary. In my years in Bend, it's one brewery I hadn't visited yet. The prospect of interesting beer and highly-praised food was too much to ignore. - Food options are not huge but it is a food cart, so that's not unexpected. - Chicken parmesan sandwich is very well prepared and very tasty. I could have one of these every week. And it's not at all small so $15 is quite reasonable. - Mushroom arancini. I'd not had an arancini before - what a treat. I ordered two. They too are not small so $4 is a steal. - No plastic or styrofoam containers involved. - You can either get food to-go, sit on one of the four picnic tables or take it inside the Apothecary, which is a cool space. Highly recommended.

    Chicken Parm

    It's been weeks and I'm still dreaming of that chicken parm. I've eaten parm hero's in every bastion of Italian American culture this country has to offer and this is among the few that the mere memory makes me salivate. Staff were friendly, food was quick, and the recommendation of spicy style was grand.

    Chicken Parmesan Sandwich

    The Chicken Parmesan sandwich is delicious. It might be my favorite sandwich that I've ever had. I've always ordered online and it's usually ready pretty fast.

    Cotto has been one of my fave go-to food trucks recently, and I recently tried two of their newer Summer menu dishes. Both of which; the Smoked Porchetta Sando and Cucumber Caprese Salad, proved to be delicious new additions. Located at the Ale Apothecary off Century Dr., the Cotto-team of James, Sarah and Michael are always friendly and great to chat with. SMOKED PORCHETTA SANDO // I adore a well curated porchetta, and w/ a house smoked pork roll, this sandwich delivered the flavor. The pork dripped w/ rich-yumminess, and the pairing of their truffle aioli was a magical combination. Finished w/ fresh; sautéed Greens, stacked on a soft hoagie roll. CUCUMBER CAPRESE SALAD // A crisp, light, and fresh salad that was a great compliment w/ the rich & savory sandwich. Featuring cherry tomatoes, cucumber, fresh mozzarella, arugula, & their pesto vinaigrette. Other familiar faves that I recommend are the chicken parm sando, both the mushroom and chicken arancini (fried rice balls), and the mouth-watering Italian donuts w/ powdered sugar "Zeppoles". If you're already a Cotto fan, check out their new menu items! If you haven't been, go treat yo-self to some killer; Italian street style comfort food!

    Chicken parm

    Great vibes at the cart pod. Worth the wait. The chicken parm was great and huge. The fried cheese has a sweetness that I didn't love, but my partner did like it.

    So yummy. Hit the spot and right in the heart of Bend. Definitely try the arancini and the zeppoles.

    The lasagna was delish, rich flavor. The only downside is the quantity/price. 1" slice of 12 layer is a very small piece.

Don't be afraid to come here! Lots of food truck options which is cool. My friend and I each got zero proof cocktails. She got the sweet hemptation and liked it so much she got a second one. I got the funky cold Modena which was tart and tasty. And we got to see Miz Cracker from RuPaul's Drag Race!! So fun! The drag show was high energy and a great time.

The owners closed up shop downtown and created this new place on 2nd Street in Bend's Central District. It's now called Dogwood at the Pine Shed. Why Yelp won't create a new, distinct page for the Pine Shed is beyond me. That said, the Pine Shed is a fine place for drinks and food truck fare. The open, spacious 'shed' has plenty of varied seating surrounding a nice bar with quite a few tables outside on the patio. Mobility-challenged folks have choices too. For those worried about 2nd Street's reputation for sketchiness, don't be. Revitalization efforts by the city have transformed the area. At times of good weather, with the big doors open, the Pine Shed is quite a nice spot to relax. Cocktails were the raison d'etre for the former incarnation of Dogwood and that emphasis transfers here to the Pine Shed. I particularly like their versions of a margarita but the other cocktails are uniformly good too. The beer tap offerings are not so spectacular, however, with only four (and a cider). On one visit shortly after they opened for business, two beer taps were tapped out, which can be chalked up to growing pains. In any case, the Pine Shed can't be seriously regarded as a tap house in the style of the many others in Bend (On Tap, River's Place, Crosscut, The Lot, The Podski, Midtown Yacht Club, etc.). Come for the cocktails. They do offer low ABV and zero ABV drinks. At present, the food truck choices are abundant and pretty decent. Being trucks/carts, and thus mobile and prone to relocating themselves, I'll not list them here. Best to check the Pine Shed's webpage for current offerings and then go to the relevant Yelp page for reviews. Parking is street only, no parking lot. The city has completed construction on 2nd Street so there are more spots available than before.

There's a sizable grass area (though currently looks like they're trying to re-seed the missing chunks) where I saw a family set up a blanket for a picnic. Lots of food truck options and the layout is simple and easy to compare your options side by side. Drink options were plenty, though it didn't seem like you could get just a soda if you wanted one but I didn't look that hard. Ice cold self-serve water was good with me. Bartender was friendly. We ordered a couple items from the BBQ truck (will do a separate review). There appears to be a nice sized stage for live performances as well as multiple fire pits and heaters for when things cool down at night or in the winter. Parking is a decent size, though don't be fooled by your map app and turn into the shopping strip just before it, they have signs everywhere that that parking is NOT for the food trucks/on Tap. Optional street parking as well, even if the street is a little tight. Would return for sure.
