We did feel a bit of pressure to order right away and didn't want to step aside because there was a line behind us. That's really the only factor I can point to that's remotely negative but also not complaining it's an observation. I see after being there why this works for the restaurant. You order at the counter, get a number, and then sit. Since it was our first time, we wanted to look over the menu, but we ended up just going with the specials -- and honestly, they were incredible. We had a unique and delicious Portuguese sausage biscuits‑and‑gravy dish with bacon on the side, and the other plate was an eggs benedict on an amazingly light, airy muffin with tomato, perfectly poached eggs, and a Portuguese sausage link, plus potatoes. Our plates were spotless by the end. The house iced tea was also a standout -- infused with fruit and specialty tea, but without actual fruit pieces in the cup. It tasted elevated and refreshing. I also ordered a cinnamon‑cardamom coffee, which was divine. Next time -- because there will be a next time -- we're thinking of sharing the special of the day and getting a spread of fresh pastries. Highly recommend. read more

This place is nostalgic for all the right reasons. Our favorite breakfast place to go in Bend. The greatness of downtown with the perks of never seeing anyone you know! We LOVE their coffee, the food is always consistent, and the staff is very kind no matter the day we visit. A little expensive, but well worth it for the consistency. read more

Sintra Cafe - Lunch Review I visited Sintra Cafe for lunch with a couple of friends. It's a Portuguese-influenced restaurant with a clean, well-kept space and an open, airy ambiance. Ordering is done at the counter, and the food is brought to your table. The person taking our order seemed a little frustrated with us, and we probably deserved it since we weren't very focused, but overall the staff was friendly, professional, and polite. The food came out in what I'd call a perfect amount of time. We had a bit of time to catch up but certainly did not feel like we were waiting for the food to come out. I had the steak sandwich (Prego), which was flavorful and tender. Both of my friends enjoyed their meals as well: one had the Linguica Pizza, and the other went for a steak salad. (I usually tune out when I hear the word "salad," but he gave it high marks. The pizza looked delicious!) Their prices hover between $16 and $20. Thankfully, one of my friends paid and did not grimace at the cost. Thanks Steve. We all enjoyed the meal. Great space, great food, great company. I'd be very comfortable recommending Sintra Cafe to anyone looking for a nice lunch spot. They also have a tasty-looking breakfast menu, and they're open only for breakfast and lunch. read more

Outstanding! I was super amazed by the menu, the great service and a clean modern look of this place. I would happily come back again. I went in here for a quick lunch and ordered a kombucha on tap with their tacos. I was absolutely impressed by how flavorful the tacos were. Not only was there in Asada style meat, but also some sausage. The food was vibrant and fresh. There is a wonderful cilantro Crema on top of them that just made this absolutely delicious. All in all, if you haven't been here, this place is totally worth checking out. read more

My partner and I came to Sintra this past weekend and left incredibly disappointed. We arrived around 12:10 pm with only 4-5 people ahead of us. We were quoted a 40-minute wait, but our food didn't arrive until over 1.5 hours later - and that was after checking in multiple times. Meanwhile, we watched table after table (who ordered well after us) receive their meals. Staff explained the delay by saying there was a "rush" when we arrived, which was just a small handful of orders ahead of ours. If that alone can derail service for over an hour, something in the kitchen's organization or training needs serious attention. We had planned to dine in, but after repeated check-ins, the friendliness from staff noticeably cooled. By the time our food was ready, we opted for a refund, which they did issue - along with our meals to-go. Sadly, the food wasn't worth the wait. My Luisa Sandwich was soggy, overloaded with cheese, and poorly assembled, with a single dot of balsamic vinaigrette on top. I couldn't eat more than two bites. My partner's tacos were also soggy and bland. Both meals went straight into the trash. Between the long wait, lack of communication, unfriendly service, and underwhelming food, this was a complete miss. Photos attached for reference - but we won't be back. read more

I rarely give 5 stars on an initial visit... but from ambiance to food to service on a Late Sunday morning too, this place was firing on all cylinders. I like their system. When you walk up the entry ramp you grab a menu and wait in line. They've got a full bar and an espresso bar along with fresh baked goods and specials. The wait to order was a few mins (5-10) but the guy at the counter (owner?) was super friendly and personable. To the right is self service condiments, cups, glasses, utensils, a pot of coffee and a huge container of water. Once you order you get a number THEN find a seat. Everything we ate here was awesome and we loved the "piri piri" hot sauce. We tried the linguiça scramble and the Portuguese Benedict, both with the Sintra potatoes. Ingredients and spices were matched well as great flavors and portion size made for happy bellies and a happy wallet. read more

Dear Sintra, You transported me to a Portuguese cafe the moment I stepped in. The decor inside the restaurant reminds you of the european vibes. I ordered the linguica scramble and belgium waffle. Excellent dishes. Linguica scramble provides an unique portugal sausage. It was amazing. The belgium waffle was a classic waffle with strawberries and bananas. Can't go wrong with that. This is a spot you definitely want to check out for a particularly Portuguese experience. read more

Super friendly staff greeted us immediately & told us about the morning specials. For beverages we ordered Jasmine iced tea, orange juice, & a latte. The tea was sweet but not overly sweet with a refreshingly unique flavor that's hard to describe. We were pleasantly surprised! For our meals we ordered Biscuits & gravy (special) & the Fried Egg Sandwich. The biscuits were "just-right-sized" AND served with eggs & your choice of meat (bacon- duh). With our experience, biscuits & gravy are typically served without sides, so again, we were pleasantly surprised!Plenty of thick gravy covered the biscuit & delivered a very mild kick at the end. The bacon came in nice, thick slices. The slightly messy but deliciously hearty Fried Egg Sandwich was served with amazing Sintra potatoes. It was filled with lots of avocado & tomato slices, and thick cut bacon. We would eat here again! read more

Enjoyed a delightful, quiet, early morning breakfast here. I had the veggie hash special and it was scrumptious and healthy. The atmosphere was also very nice and I especially enjoyed their music. They're able to open one of the large windows facing the street to let the outside in. And they have a few tables outside on the sidewalk. Coffee was very good and I noticed it was from Bellatazza which I was actually planning on going to after breakfast. Service was very friendly. Definitely a new favorite spot for breakfast in Bend! read more

What happens when a group of Portuguese people travel? They always find a Portuguese spot to try. First impression: Lovely place! The decor was spot on with the Portuguese tile as the logo, the photos on the walls from Portugal, and the rest of the decor. You can tell that this is a very cute and trendy cafe. They also had merchandise for purchase which I couldn't resist and bought myself a t-shirt. Our group ordered several different drinks including the Portuguese coffee, mimosa, mocha, caiparinha, moscow mule, and espresso martini. On average, we rated our drinks about a 6/10. The mocha was the favorite in our group but the alcoholic beverages were a miss for the rest of us. We didn't try any food, so I have no comments on that. Lastly, the service was good. The girls that helped us were very nice and answered all of our questions. Overall, I really enjoyed the vibe at Sintra but I wish I would have tried a non-alcoholic coffee. read more

We visited Bend for the weekend for snowboarding. Are at this restaurant before we went back home. Love the vibe here. The staff was super friendly. We had to wait for a bit since it was busy. But the food was worth the wait. The muffin was served warm. Eggs Benedict was delicious. Poached eggs were perfectly cooked. The sausage was very flavorful. The size of the dish was just right. May visit again if I come back to Bend. read more

We got there in time before the brunch rush came. The jasmine tea infused with fruit was the bomb. The flavoring of spices and pineapple went well with the iced jasmine tea. I was excited to try this place because I've had Portuguese sausage from Hawaii and it was just like home. The sausage went well with the eggs Benedict. Instead of usually hollandaise sauce, I liked the red sauce it came with. DH said his entree was delish too. We would come back to visit when we come back to Bend. read more

Popped into Sintra on a Saturday morning when we were visiting Bend based on a recommendation from family. I'm not a huge fan of order and sit down but we were willing to give it a go and the man taking our order was quick yet kind. Luckily there was plenty of seating so we nestled into a high top in the back. Our americanos were just right - they tasted like solid espresso. I'm not one for sweets but my bf's apple pastry was delightful. Their food menu has a lot of fun options so maybe consider stepping outside of your usual go tos. read more

Latte and matcha taste watered down. This place is too expensive for low quality drinks.

Quite delicious breakfast. I was a bit hungry after though. I should have ordered a side dish to go with my meal. That's on me though. I'm a hungry Farmer. read more

The location itself is very cute and well decorated, right in downtown Bend. I like that the breakfast and lunch menu are both served simultaneously. Some of the sandwiches looked great but I decided against it because the side option was only kettle chips until you got 1/2 sandwich and 1/2 salad and for the price, kettle chips made it feel not worth it. I ended up getting the hash special and it was good but nothing special. Very similar to something I'd just make at home. I was eyeing the biscuits and gravy and I probably should have ordered that. read more

The family and I were going to have a nice breakfast here this morning, my wife was told we couldn't have a table in an empty business until we ordered food?

Always great food and relaxed atmosphere. One of the best spots in town. The Mediterranean omelette is epic.

Had a nice experience for breakfast. We ordered French toast, eggs Benedict w/ham and breakfast burrito. French toast was so good! Nice hint of vanilla to it. Eggs Benedict was also very good, and I've had a lot of Benedict's! Hollandaise sauce had a hint of lemon, which is perfect. Served on baguette instead of traditional English muffin. Hubs had the burrito and liked it, but wanted more of a "kick" to it. The red sauce on top is just tomato, when he assumed it was salsa. He regretted not getting the Sintra hash, but still managed to eat the whole burrito. Coffee was strong and the 2 people working were very nice and welcoming. read more

Our food was delicious. The service was very fast. The owner was there working and greeting guests. We will be back for sure .

Man I wanted to like this place. I'm portuguese and have been to Sintra so was really excited to check this place out. Looks like they had some awesome specials and french toast was fricken bomb! Why 3 starts you ask? Oh man do they need a hostess. So its a pay then grab your number kind of system. So I do what anyone would do in a group of people. Collect our orders and have my group sit down so they also don't take up a bunch of space waiting in line and I go order for us. When I get to the front I mention that we already have a table as I have a two year old and trust me its better for everyone if he sits, I got scolded for not getting a table for the group until after I ordered. I was stunned that A) I was spoken to so rudely and B) surprised they thought anyone would assume to follow this advice voluntarily? Why would I have a group of four in a line instead of 1. Wouldn't that make the line INCREDIBLY LONG and also so many transactions? I didn't ask but he explained if people order and dont have a table it makes a big mess. I don't think any customer is ever going to consider that ahead of time so changing the system might make more sense vs lecturing me. You see a big line out the door and decide everyone in your group should stand in line amongst other guests tables who are eating like bro come on? Not to mention while I was standing there this guy was talking to another employee said to check out the group in the middle as he was pretty sure they brought outside coffees and were sitting without a number, like oh no! Calm down. How about instead of policing your ridiculous rules (in front of customers) get a hostess and some servers. The servers that brought our food were pretty sweet. My linguica was not so warm and kind of dry so the whole reason I went was also like meh. Delicious drink menu and french toast. read more
