This is our third or fourth visit here. The cooked food is good; salads not so much... which is my main staple. Whomever 'designed' the salads there does NOT eat salad. This last time, I ordered the Chef Salad which was lack luster at best. It's $20 dollars, has straight up cold cuts, that aren't fantastic at all. I was expecting in-house cooked shredded turkey and ham, but received cut deli meat. It also had grapes AND chick peas; NOT an awesome pallette. My wife ordered 'Harvest Beet' which was filled with awkward flavors, and just didn't taste good. If you can, order from the cooked menu, I suggest that, but as a someone that is looking for a good salad, Carson's DOES NOT deliver. It's NOT worth the money of $20 dollars for a Safeway salad; just go to Safeway. No picture because you can Google salads and see a better one anyway. Larry the server was nice. read more

Service was top-notch, and the food was wonderful. I had the steelhead sandwich for lunch and the French toast for breakfast, both were excellent. My husband eats plant-based food, and though the selection was slim for him, his salads and quinoa bowl were super flavorful. A big shout out to our servers, Larry and Deanne, they had a perfect balance of attentiveness and knowing when to leave me to my meal. read more

My friend and I wanted lunch and a place to chat The food and drink were just fine Our wonderful server Sandy Made us feel At home thank you read more

My best friend and I sopped in to watch the Super Bowl. The bar food was incredibly good and well presented but the service was superior. The atmosphere was classy but still comfortable and welcoming. A very enjoyable time with a BIG shout out to Tara, our bartender. I will definitely recommend to all my friends. read more

Our family went here so my dad could try the elk meatloaf. While he liked it, and the rest of us liked our food, the service prevented me from giving this restaurant a higher rating. Even though the restaurant was pretty empty it took forever to get our drink and food orders in. There were separate menus for the kids it took a long time before the crayons were brought by. I don't think we'll be going back. read more

If eggs benedict is part of your vacation enjoyment then this place will please you. Great hollandaise sauce and a wonderful server, Sandy. The restaurant is adjacent to the lounge area that has a large fireplace, deep leather chairs and views of the golf course, walking trails and cascade mountains. read more

They did not honor the reservation we had made. The burger was so basic for what they charge. 1 limp piece of lettuce, cold bun, 1 barely ripe tomato, a teaspoon of plain ketchup and mustard. Really? Then the clam chowder was worse then a canned soup. It was potato broth. Service was slow and inattentive. Will not go back. read more

Enjoyed breakfast with a beautiful view of the golf course. Larry was a great and effecient server.

Francesco was our server, he was fabulous! Never had an empty cup of coffee, prompt service, and friendly. Menu items are spendy, but the food is filling and quality! My husband laughed at the 3-egg omelet since he was starving but could barely finish it! I had egg white with spinach omelet and the flavor was great! Atmosphere is cozy, clean, and has a great view of the golf course/mountains! read more

Only had lunch here, but the halibut fish and chips were very good. Had them twice. Also had a friend rave about how good the hamburger was here, although a bit pricey at 15.00. Beautiful view of the golf course and mountains in the background.located in the sun river resort. read more

Had a wonderful breakfast. Large portions, and very well prepared food. Changed menu items specifically for us. Our server Sandy was delightful and made us feel right at home. read more

My family comes here every year. The experience is always great. This year I got the pasta carbonara but was disappointed with the fact that they couldn't remove the peppers even when obviously it wouldn't have been hard to not put five large peppers on the bottom and put the actual pasta over top. Also, I am sorry for nitpicking but the waitress told me the peppers the were using were poblanos. Last time I checked a poblano is green not red and shaped like a bell pepper. I am sorry to start with the negatives so I willing make up for it with the positive side of my latest experience. The servers are always kind and helpful and the flavor never disappoints. The bacon was rendered properly and the pasta was cooked perfectly. The sauce was creamy and had much flavor. But if you are going to use onions chop them finer. They are however not necessary if you tweak the recipe a little. Anyway the rest of my family loved their food and had no problems. So great service and great food. Overall: GREAT. read more

Food was fast and Delicious. Views were Great. Coffee was great and we had an amazing server named Sandy who took care of us and our new born. She was on top of things and very very Helpful. Score to anyone else who ends up being helped by Sandy read more

Great atmosphere, beautiful view, pretty good service but all of that is easily ruined when you find hairs in your eggs and pay 26 bucks for fish and chips and you get pounds of potatoes and 2 tiny pieces of fish. Not how fine dining should be! read more

Our first trip to the Sun River resort and we chose to have breakfast both mornings at Carson's. The place was lovely with beautiful big windows to enjoy the mountains and golf courses. The kitchen is an open kitchen where you can see the chefs cooking. Our server Sandy welcomed us with a big smile and hot coffee. She was a delight and served us well and we enjoyed conversation with her. What a great asset she is to Carson's. Great menu with lots of choices and they use local NW foods and fresh ingredients. I totally enjoyed the Brioche French Toast with strawberry and blueberry, lemon curd and creme anglais. It was so lovely to look at but I dug right in and it was delicious. The taste of the lemon curd with the French toast and syrup was so good. I ate every bite and almost licked the plate to get the last bit of lemon curd! Hubby had the Spanish omelette with potatoes. It was huge and he said tasted very fresh and not over cooked. The bacon was local and had good flavor. I highly recommend eating at Carson's. It is pricy but remember you are at a resort! read more

Wonderful remodel to the old Sunriver dining room. Our server Sandy was delightful - very attentive and warm. We look forward to returning.

We ate here for two breakfasts when we were visiting Sunriver. The food was excellent. Our waitress Sandy was top notch and very attentive. I would definitely recommend! read more

Great atmosphere service is always on par. Food quality is consistently good. There is a great lunch menu for $12 sandwich and soup or salad. We always get the fried dill pickles as a side they are a nice extra to a perfect meal. We regularly visit and have not yet been disappointed. read more

I just want to say what wonderful attentive service I get from ALL the servers at Sunriver Resorts Carson's Kitchen and Twisted River. Living in Sunriver is a dream and the Lodge is so wonderful to enjoy all year long. They make you feel like family. Thank you Lana B read more

This place is absolutely amazing! They are super helpful with food allergies/intolerances and completely vegan/vegetarian-friendly. Our server Sandy was a complete angel. Carson's is my number one go-to in Sunriver! read more

Loved our multi course dinner! Chefs pick with options. Highly recommend. Salad, soup, palate cleansing cucumber sorbet, main course and desert. They also offer wine paring for each as smaller sizes so you can try suggested wines with out buying a full glass. Pomegranate sorbet with a lemon curb with crushed hazel nuts! A new Favorite. Danielle was an excellent hostess and server! It felt as though we were being help by a close friend who knew her way around the menu and wines. EXCELLENT FOOD & SERVICE. Can hardly wait to go again! read more

Located at the Sunriver Resort Lodge. The food was good - I had a watermelon salad with chicken - but terribly expensive, especially for lunch. Also, the menu is fairly limited. . The restaurant has a good view of the Meadows golf course and would be a nice spot for a special meal. read more

Absolutely best granola I've ever had! Service was exceptional and the staff were uber-friendly!

Great meal great service! Andy was our waitress, she is a rock star! The pasta, halibut, soup, dessert..everything was awesome.

The setting is just gorgeous. Our server forgot about is for a little bit, but the food was delicious. Would eat here again.

We were in Sunriver for the Chocolate Showcase. Following a great time enjoying all of the chocolate and goodies they had to offer, we decided to have lunch at Carson's and we are glad we did. The food, service, and view were great! From our booth we had a great view of Mt. Bachelor. We started with the Brussel sprouts, which were tasty. For our entrees we had the Pulled Pork and the Cheese Steak sandwiches. Each were very good! To top it all off, our server, Larry was fantastic. He made sure that we felt very welcome and had everything we needed over the course of our meal. He was very knowledgable about the menu and was very personable. Will be back soon! read more

I was sorely disappointed in our Christmas dinner. Living in Sunriver with the high expectations which surround the area I never thought I would have such a poor experience. My parents treated my and my kids to what we thought would be a wonderful dinner. They made reservations way in advance and was told they could have a booth and a window seat. We got there 30 minutes early and they did bring us in which created more of a frustration. They would not accommodate us with a window seat nor with a booth. Instead they put us in the far back corner, furthest from the windows and closest to the exit. This was inexcusable as they only had 5 other families dining at this time and by the time we left, 3 of those were replaced with only 2 other families. They told us they could not give us a booth nor a window seat as others were coming to dine there. We told them we were promised both when the reservations were made but they just kept saying they were sorry but would not give us what we asked for. This was followed by our 3 of our salads being messed up (wrong size and order) as well as one soup. We had to wait several times for the "kitchen" to get our order correct. I only got 1 brussel sprout with my meal, which was supposed to be my vegetable and both of my kids steaks came out mooing (keeping this kid friendly), which ruined both of their appetites. With the amount that was spent for this Christmas dinner, they should have accommodated our seating arrangements, at the very least. They didn't even give us a discount for all we had to put up with. Shame on you. At least our server was kind and embarrassed for everything. This was service I haven't even gotten at a cheap restaurant. There are much better places to eat in Sunriver - Sunriver Bar and Grill (always kind and great food) and Sunriver Brewery. read more

Excellent food! Great service, and the restaurant views make you want to slow down your meal so that you can stay longer. I love the burger. Clearly from a high grade local farmer, as well as the homemade bun, fries and ketchup. Definitely a cut above restaurants found in hotels. read more

Delicious dinner with the family! Love the atmosphere and Danielle was attentive to our every need and fabulous as always!

Had lunch here today. We had the onion soup that was very tasty. The duck nuggets which you should pass on and the veggie pita with grilled chicken that was good as well and came with very good frys. Staff was top notch and friendly. The down side was the prices were way out of line. $58.00 for lunch. read more

Four of us ate at Carson's on 16 March 2016. We had a delicious breakfast with wonderful vegetarian options. The food was well prepared and esthetically pleasing. Our server, Sandy, is a gem. She was attentive, efficient, cheerful, delightful and obviously enjoys people. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience. We have been visiting Sunriver Resort since 1969! read more

Beautiful scenery of Mt Bachelor and golf course. However my Caesar salad was dry and not interesting at all. Fish Tacos were good.

My favorite restaurant in Sunriver. The food is always good and great choices. There is a gorgeous view of the golf course and Mount Bachelor. Absolutely stunning view in the winter. Our server Sandy was amazing; attentive and extremely pleasant working the day after Christmas. read more

We've eaten here 3 or 4 times over the years and this last time we ended up here to visit the beautiful Christmas light display. It's fantastic. We were hungry and decided to get a bite to eat. Our waitress was very nice but our food was , as usual, a big MEH, super un creative, boring( and as my High school English teacher used to say "a monument to mediocrity).My husband had the seafood pasta and the tiniest Caesar salad I've ever seen ( in like a sherbet bowl). This came with unbuttered WHITE BREAD toast. The pasta had no flavor in a white watery broth with maybe a hint of wine flavor. Seriously under seasoned. My chicken vegetable soup was mostly canned green beans in a greasy brown broth with lots of tarragon ( I believe). There may have been chicken in it somewhere but I never saw it. The last time we ate here my husband had a boring dry hamburger. I had an ahi tuna sandwich on that crappy dry white bread. All this to say is extremely over priced and I'd advise anyone to maybe have a drink or cocktail , maybe enjoy the scenery ,and drive to Bend or La Pine or anywhere for a much better meal! We've stayed here a few times and for such a lovely place it REALLY should get their food act together! read more

Finally good food for a travell8ng family. We have been getting by on basically pub food since starting our vacation and we're pleased to take advantage of another few options. My husband liked the Brussel sprouts, my kids loved the o to dog (ok neither of those are much healthier than pub food, really...) the hummus plate was great and I enjoyed my chicken. Grateful for Lauren who was totally helpful in accommodating my lengthy (fodmap and lyme disease) special dietary restrictions. Nice old fashioned too! read more

Yummy Sunday brunch choices, both the pulled pork eggs Benedict and the huevos rancheros. Good service even when busy. Delightful.

We dine regularly at Carson's. Great food, drinks, service with a great view of the meadow. We have tried and enjoyed virtually everything on the menu. read more

Beautiful place with beautiful views! The food was really good and service was great, too. Definitely a little pricey, but it was worth it!

I visited Carson's for breakfast on a Sunday morning. My fried egg sandwich was terribly over cooked. The egg was solid, with the yolk as firm as a hard boiled egg. Really disappointing for such a lovely venue. Prices are also quite steep; $3.50 for a coffee, and then I have to ask the server to refill my cup because she is not paying attention. read more

Wayyyyy to expensive. Bush did 9/11 our server was good. The bartender was shit the food was dry . The manager refused to give me a bj under the table read more
