Went at 3:30 on a weekday and it was quite empty. Inside is small / gives coffee shop vibes but the outside gives "ill take a margarita as i socialize with friends vibe". Classic marg was very good / strong in the way a marg should be. Tri-tip bowl was 10/10! Prices are a but high ($18 for a bowl) but thats bend food for ya! read more

Crave Bend - Tri-tip bowl Classic margarita - Tacos Near Me - Bend, Oregon

I honestly can't believe this place exists in Bend--and on DoorDash no less. It is nearly impossible to find truly healthy, whole food around here that actually tastes amazing, but Grave nailed it. This is hands-down the best food I've ever ordered for delivery in town. The Chipotle BBQ Chicken Tacos were out of this world. Perfectly smoky chicken, topped with honey-lime slaw, sweet apple salsa, house crema, and Cotija cheese. Every bite was bursting with flavor. Just fresh, bold, and absolutely delicious. Then there's Mama Sandy's Mediterranean Bowl--exactly the kind of meal I'm always craving but can never find. It had arugula, zesty hummus, charred chicken breast, brown rice, Kalamata olives, feta, orange peppers, red onion, and a balsamic drizzle. Every ingredient was fresh and tasted like real food. No shortcuts, nothing greasy or heavy--just clean, vibrant, satisfying flavor. We ordered a side of chips and guac, which was also delicious. I'm excited to try their other dishes. It looks like the menu is not too big but I'm guessing that's bc they focus on high-quality ingredients and taste. And they are winning!! If you've been struggling to find healthy food in Bend that doesn't taste like an afterthought, Grave is the answer. I'm honestly mad I didn't know this place existed sooner. Total hidden gem--and I'm already planning my next order. read more

Can't give 5 stars yet because I haven't been inside but... first time having this and got it through DoorDash and it's sooooo good! I got the Grilled Steak Salad and it was a lot of food with plenty of steak and cheese and the avocado was good. All things that usually lack in a salad like this. Definitely trying again!! read more

Crave Bend - Grilled Steak Salad - Tacos Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Food was great. It was fresh and interesting. I got the black bean and butternut squash bowl. It had very interesting flavors. I love barbecue black beans and they added a nice kick. My husband got the Mediterranean bowl. He has a big appetite and it was quite filling. Their quesadilla was perfect for our kid and was only $4. My other kiddo is pretty picky so they let her taste the beans which were too spicy for her but we managed to find something. Their guac was great. They had interesting drinks and indoor seating. read more

I can't believe we've waited this long to try this place!! We stopped in for lunch and ate on the patio. It was a great choice! We started with the guac and blueberry salsa...delicious! We also enjoyed the grilled shrimp tacos that were on special and the strawberry salad. Everything was fresh and crisp and the flavors were unique and so delicious. Highly recommend! read more

I had the tri tip bowl. It was ok, but lacking flavor, which was disappointing bc it had chimichurri, which is supposed to be yummy! The basis of my poor review though, is that my friend and I ordered margaritas - mine regular and hers guava. They were both unpalatable. We nicely told them, and they remade them, which was nice, but they were still awful. Overly tart and definitely wrong. I have gotten through many a bad margarita, but these were terrible. When I asked for my money back, they wouldn't give it to me. I will never go back. read more

If you're looking for delicious gluten free meals that have dairy free/ vegan options and don't skimp on flavor...Crave Bend is the spot. The staff is friendly, there is indoor/ outdoor seating, the food comes out quick and they have a great drink pour;) I had the grilled Mediterranean lemon chicken bowl, one of the best dishes I've had lately. Their menu is seasonal so be open to new things depending on when you dine there. read more

Been going to Crave since it opened and until last week, it was great. After we ordered our food we found a spot to sit inside and my wife was looking a trash can for a napkin. She walked towards the cash register, no one was there and took a couple steps toward the door leading to the kitchen. An employee, who I'm guessing was on break sitting in the bar area, in a raised voice says "employees only!! Read the sign!" There's any number of ways this could have been handled better, he chose the worst. Crave has good food, but not good enough for my wife and I to go back. read more

Great service. Hot chip with a cool blueberry and onion salsa. Healthy bowls and salads. And oh the Margarita

Very good chicken and steak tacos with quality ingredients. It was a nice place to sit out on the patio. read more

Crave Bend - Tacos Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Shrimp tacos were the worst tacos I've ever had. They had so much cumin, it was mind boggling. Bitter. Guacamole was mediocre and bland. Everything was poorly seasoned. Our group was very disappointed in the food. Workers were pleasant and offered to remake items but we all lost our appetite. read more

I'll start off by saying the food is pretty good. My complaint is for the "comedy night" that was so lame. The guy who kicked off the night begins with saying "if you get offended easily, there's the door." Really?? We are paying customers in a local restaurant. It's not a bar or comedy club. Families come in with their kids. The owner should get a clue on this; there is good, clean, comedy that is entertaining. This guy was making racist jokes and cursing. Came with a big group and before the guy started his bit, we were all agreeing to return. The "comedy" was pathetic and we had to walk out (and we never returned and never will). read more

first time visiting and immediately had an odd experience with the employee not being familiar their spirit options. my friend and I each ordered a taco each one tri tip one chicKen and chips and guac. the guacamole came out fast and the guacamole was good even if the onions and cilantro were highly chopped. the tacos came out next and were quite large and overflowing with toppings. I tried the apple slaw and it was good I then tried a piece of chicken and it was cold. I proceeded to pull the cold toppings off in hopes that the lower layers were hot but the chicken and chipotle sauce was cold all the way thru. I could not eat it. I tried to find staff (there were three and it was not busy) but no one was to be found so I just trashed my taco and cannot imagine recommending this place. read more

Tasty margaritas, great service, fun ambience. So excited to have this place to drop into. read more

Crave Bend - Margaritas, bar menu - Tacos Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Just happened to see the "margarita bar" sign & stopped in to check it out. What a find! Had an incredible Blueberry margarita,, don't knock it til you try it. Tried 3 of the tacos (huge), couldn't pick the one we liked best. This is a great spot. Really deserves a stop. PS Gluten free. read more

Friendly service, great drinks! They offer a variety of margaritas in a fun atmosphere.

Margarita Snob We are always on the hunt for the perfect margarita... Not too sweet, not too sour. And made with real ingredients - not a mix. Crave met all of our requirements and was served in some really cool clay glasses as a bonus. Great ambience, great service and convenient location. Our new cocktail spot in Bend. read more

I ordered 2 tacos to go for lunch. The Tri tip & BBQ chicken tacos. Both included some fruity slaw and the meat was chewy & lacked flavor. Maybe I'm more of a traditional street taco kinda person but sometimes when you try to make something too fancy or unique you end up just making it taste not so great. read more

The sandy-Rita was crisp and clean, the perfect libation. And the black bean butternut squash taco--just when I thought I'd tried it all, it proved me wrong. Absolutely unique. read more

Best taco's in town. Worth every penny! I had the Chipotle Chicken. The flavors are expertly balanced and delicious beyond words.

Yum! Oh my goodness, so fresh! I had the El Hefe cucumber jalapeno margarita and tri tip tacos. The blueberry salsa with chips was the bomb!!! You have got to try Crave Bend. Truly a hidden gem!!! read more

Disappointing. My sister and I ate here once....sadly, I doubt that we will return. Decor is sorely lacking but we were willing to overlook this; we just wanted to have an amazing meal. The food was seriously lacking. My meal was cool when it arrived. I asked them to make it hot. When it came back to me in just a minute or so, it had been microwaved. The owner was kind enough but again, we just wanted great food. Service was good or I would have given this two stars. read more

For total transparency, Jeff, one of the owners, is a pickleball friend of many years. Before we entered, I told my husband it would either be a 5 star review or none at all as I did not want to leave a negative critique. I am happy to say that we were all delighted with our experience. The food was scrumptious, generously portioned, high quality and priced reasonably. We do not eat out a lot so my husband saying that he "would eat here again" was high praise indeed! read more

We had a great dinner at Crave! We had the Tri-tip bowl and chicken chipotle (warm) bowl. Both were excellent. Some of the proteins can be interchanged into different bowl options. The BONUS was the blueberry salsa and chips . Oh my! The bar was hopping with margaritas and we tried the huckleberry-lemon cider . The owners, Jeff & Sandy were very gracious and out talking with customers. Will definitely be going back! read more

10th time eating here and never get old. Soo good I've had it all and settled into the black bean bowl with add bbq chicken. Got to try a preview of there guacamole (currently in R&D) was awesome. When they add guacamole and and chips i'll be adding that the my Mountian high everything bowl "the summit bowl". Mescal cocktail and jalapeño margarita rules. Staff and owners are awesome and welcoming. They take flavor to a new level in Bend. If you didn't ask, you'd never know it's an entirely Gluten free restaurant. Can you day Celiac friendly? Never too busy, plenty of seating perfect for after ski or ride lunch or dinner. You won't be disappointed. read more

Friendly and attentive staff! I had the desert flowers margarita that had grapefruit & hibiscus infused tequila and an amazing chili lime tri tip taco. Meat was super tender and the portion was filling. I left happy and satisfied. Will definitely come back! read more

Food was decent. Tacos for seven dollars were large. A bit sweet for my taste. Limited menu. Margaritas for lunch? Probably not. Nice gimmick though. Does Bend really need another place like this? I won't Crave them! read more

Great place for margaritas and bowls. Wish the guacamole was made to order. Definitely worth a try.

So good. Had the BBQ chicken bowl and guacamole/chips. Owners are so nice, the food is excellent. Highly recommend!!!

Went here for lunch today with my daughter. Amazing food that we both thoroughly enjoyed! I had the bbq chicken bowl (the apple salsa made it sooo special) and my daughter, the tri-tip bowl with chimichurri. They manage to blend super tasty with food that just FEELS like it's making your body feel healthy. Will be going back soon! read more

Food and margaritas were so flavor able and delicious Service was friendly and hospitable. Definitely, a new fav

Just had the Mediterranean bowl and oh my goodness it was beyond delicious! The ingredients were so fresh, flavor was amazing, and the portion was hearty! Hooray to having this great option on the west side in a super convenient location. read more

Saw the "now open" the sign when we were at Powder House and decided to try Crave for lunch. The owner and staff are welcoming and friendly. We had the Mediterranean bowl and spicy marg and Tri Tip bowl and regular marg. Margs were perfectly balanced and not too sweet. The bowls were fresh and high quality meat and produce with great flavor. Quinoa cooked perfectly. read more

We've been to Crave twice now, and both times the food, service and drinks were fantastic. Small menu, but there is something for everyone. You can tell the food is fresh and made to order. Highly recommend this place. read more

This place is great. The food is excellent with some nice unique ideas and flavors and it's gluten free. Great service too. Oh and the margaritas are great. Lots to enjoy. read more

Really impressed! Salsa and guacamole were so good (and unique in a great way) but the chips for some reason were incredible. Also had two great tacos (one veggie, one tri tip) and a solid margarita. Will definitely be back! read more

I was looking forward to a new restaurant with healthy food options. Ordered two chicken tacos that had both white and dark meat. The tacos were extra large and fell apart when picked up despite having a double layer of corn tortillas. All of the chicken was in chunks, not shredded. Some of the chicken had skin on it. Nothing great about the taste. Overwhelming taco presentation. Sometimes less is more. Ordered a $16 margarita that was nothing special. Ambience was that of the former establishment...bland. Service was good. Right now, I cannot recommend. read more
