We started with a beautiful bottle of Domaine Serene 2021 Pinot Noir... smooth, elegant, and the perfect pairing for everything that followed. I started with mussels and clams (seafood will always be my first pick) and scallops for my husband--both were incredible. For the main event, I had the blackened redfish (SO good) which is the best I have had outside of New Orleans and the steak lover went all in on the ribeye... and let's just say there were zero leftovers! Every bite was delicious, the atmosphere was perfect, and the best part? Our server Emily never missed a beat all night! If you're in Bend and looking for a fantastic night out--this is your spot. All the tables were full and it was a Monday night!

We ate here on a recent trip from Eugene and we're excited to see a cajun style restaurant in Bend…read more The restaurant is nice inside and has a low key upscale feel. The menu isn't very large and I think we both settled on choices quickly, deciding to try the most "quintessential" entrees to share. I chose the Blackened Redfish, and my boyfriend the Jambalaya. Even though we had already decided, the waitress went on her whole spiel through the menu highlights, including what we had already had planned to order. Awkward, but it was fine, and we didn't stray from our original choices. The Blackened Redfish was perfectly cooked and flaky. It was served on a bed of mashed potatoes with a slightly tangy sauce. All of it was tasty, but I was a bit disappointed in the lack of spice to the blackening seasoning and the sauce. Also, serving it on grits instead of mashed potatoes would have made it feel 100% more Cajun, even with lack of seasoning. The Jambalaya fared a bit better, although my boyfriend was also left puzzled by the lack of spice to this classic dish. In all ways it was a very good representation of New Orleans style red jambalaya, with the andouille sausage being particularly notable for flavor. The cornbread it came with was pretty good. We shared a piece of chocolate cake for dessert. A very decadent concoction of chocolate, peanut butter, and caramel. It was one of the better $12 slices of cake I've had. Overall? The service was good, if not a bit awkward with the menu spiel. The food was all very well prepared, but for a Cajun style restaurant they sure could stand to spice things up a bit. It's not cheap, but at least the entrees are a full sized meal and you don't have to order many "tiny plates" to cobble together a dinner.

Decently good fried chicken sandwiches. The chicken is fresh, the spice is on point, the slaw is…read moredecent, but the sandwiches are a bit one dimensional. A great Nashville style fried chicken sandwich is a balance, a harmony between the spice from the cayenne, the acidity from pickles, and a hint of sweetness to round it out. These felt a bit one-dimensional, and the slaw didn't really bring balance to the spice. The sidewinder fries are absolutely S-tier, and I very strongly recommend these if you are here. Overall, not bad given the alternatives in Bend, but fairly average compared to the fried chicken wars in the rest of the country.

OK, this place is crazy good... going back and trying to make sure I reviewed all my check ins and…read moresee that I gloss over this one. Every once in a while, you get a place that just hits when it comes to chicken. Now, like most of you know chicken breast is the most plain dry cut of meat you could possibly get. So really when you get to a good place that knows how to fry it up right soak in all that moisture. You didn't think it had and give it that perfect crust and spice it to perfection. Now I hate to judge a book by its cover, but let's be honest that's why you give books covers. In this case you can see it so blatantly a good chicken sandwich from a mile away. I like to go around these busy areas and kind of just pee around and look at people's food and see what visually is happening. The same way with the coffee shop you can look at pictures of their drink drinks and know about 90% certainty, but it's gonna be good or not Here was a no braider it tasted exactly how you might think and with all that said it was a banger of a sandwich. It's hard to spend this much on a sandwich these days and I really advocate for places like Dave's Hot Chicken and Chick-fil-A that can just put out a great sandwich for a lower price, but I know that amazing sandwiches usually come at a higher price. With all that sad and all that context put in there this place is good and if you're one of those people comfortable paying normal sandwich prices for sandwiches you're gonna absolutely love this place

Despite for my lunch today I still will give this place five stars. The chicken sandwiches are the…read moreabsolute best. I have had the big bird a few times. The chicken is always juicy and the fattening fried part the best. Their sauce, I've never had anything like it. The sweet tanginess is something new. The fries are thin and crunchy without your fingers being greasy. Mastered. With that said I think it's important to share my review with the establishment. I do not want this amazing little takeout to go anywhere. And how can they fix something if they don't know. Today. My chicken sandwich/the big bird had so much mustard on it. It was overpowering. Dripping. It's all I could taste. Makes my mouth water thinking of it. I could not taste the cabbage. Actually had to check the sandwich, thinking they must have forgotten it. Nope, just drowning in the mustard. The chicken had a few bites of fat. Makes me shiver. To me there is nothing grosser than chicken fat. Can ruin a dish. The French fries. Sinfully wrong. Mastered. The sweet seasoning they use, down to cooking them to perfection. Gold. Crunchy. And never greasy. So good. However, today they tasted more salty than sweet and tangy. So much salt. Was not good. Everything I've had there has been the best. A sweet experience. Not your typical chicken. However. Despite not having the best meal today I'll continue giving them a five star. I've been there to know today was an off day. Between the mustard and all the salt todays meal was not a treat. This is a worthy place. One of my favorites.

It's a walk in sit down spot - you place your order at the counter and they give you a number - decent size for busy food times - so usually plenty of seating. Over the phone ordering was a snap and the dude was super polite and helpful - not rushed. My wife got the traditional breakfast - she loved the local links and flaky biscuit - I think it was peach marmalade - not sure, but it was LEGIT. I got the pozole roja (I think that's the menu name) and - yo, it was the best pozole I've had. The ingredients were plenty, the chicken was tender and flavorful, they put the radishes, cilantro and cabbage on the side for you to add so it's not soggy. Sourdough was so good to dip - mouth is watering writing this. Service th morning we were headed out at 7amish was great also - wife got coffee cake (warmed in their brick oven) and I got two citrus muffins and a sourdough cinnamon roll for later - all were scrumptious and delightful. I would got a half dozen muffins if I knew they were that good before. People were kind and the service is quick. We ate there these two time on $52 dollars - both to-go orders. We will absolutely be back - every time we are near bend, I'll be stopping for pozole for sure! Well done, Jacksons Corner, well done!

Set in an old home, this establishment has become one of Bend's favorite restaurants. The menus have range with breakfast by far being my favorite. However, their pizzas are spectacular and I've never had a pastry yet that I didn't really enjoy. They serve coffee from a local roaster called Lone Pine. The staff is always extremely friendly and I have frequently positive interactions with them when I stop by. Prices are reasonable, and the food is very high-quality while also being consistently fresh. Parking can be a challenge at times, but it's always worth the effort. Not to mention a chance for a nice stroll around downtown Bend after my meal... just the perfect end to complement a perfect day here in this lovely place. Thank you Jackson's corner for being a staple in this community and consistently making every meal here a little bit more joyful.

Lived here for over 20 years; Worst experience at a bar I've ever had and surprisingly it came from…read morestaff members. It pains me to say this as I'm a business owner in this industry; I get the stresses that come with the tasks at running a business like this. BUT, they need to make some changes immediately. It was a "comedy" night and the host wasn't just bad at hosting, but obtuse, rude and disrespectful to me, my friend, the music entertainer and the patrons. A hostile and incompetent staff didn't provide any help or follow up. I can't get too into details atm for litigation reasons but like I've said, I've never had any problems in any bars with anyone before or have had such an egregious experience that left me bemused to the point where I felt the need to issue a 1 star experience. You have to really mess up to get a 1 star from me. To the owners: I'll be submitting a formal complaint and seeking financial retribution through the Office of the Oregon Attorney General, a secondary complaint will be filed with the BBB as I won't put up with this dubious behavior from your staff or from anywhere. This behavior is unacceptable, unethical and it ultimately places your patrons and staff at risk of bodily harm or injury. I'm going to get down to the bottom of this civilly, legally and swiftly. Oh and the food; I'm sure it's not bad but full disclosure I didn't have any tonight. BUT HERES MY TAKE: Beer prices were typical. Kids menu was decent but kinda small. The adult food was over priced but what else are you going to eat with no other food options near by. The menu is ok but you'll spend 10 Barrel money; min $17 for a sandwich. If you get a beer too make it $25. If you like tacos you'll spend $16 for x3 shrimp tacos!(Which Im sure are frozen shrimp). Those are typical prices like ten barrel, brother John's, etc. but that's a lot of money for not much of an experience or room to breathe and stretch your legs. I'd rather go to the Cross-Eyed cricket down the road and spend the same amount and have a lot better of a time without feeling claustrophobic, ripped off or threatened. For those first timers; IMO this wasn't built as a restaurant to accommodate an experience for guests. This is a tiny bar and tiny inside sitting area that was made to wrangle people in who are on a tour to make more money off of them. Not provide an experience worth your money. BIG DIFFERENCE. There's basically 8 parking spots I think. So plan on parking on the street. Or across the street. This was built to make beer and then the bar came as an after thought. You could go to Cheba hut on a Monday night or Tuesday night and have a blast with just $25. Again not bad food, just way over priced for the experience. Plenty of other bars/breweries that have an attentive staff who are friendly and have great food/beer options.

The mac and cheese, however, was a disappointment-the sauce was grainy and lacked cheese flavor.

We got ... forgot the name but it was a beef and broccoli with veggies - super good. And chilaquiles - holiday style (red a green sauce). Both were flavorful and hearty - very filling.

It was quick to come out - since it was take out and close to closing I waited in their seating area and they had water available for me - love that.

The tofu was soft and took up the sauce well. Their side kimchi soup and banchans were delicious as well. I'd suggest going for their Dolsot Bibimbap options since these were very tasty and generous, albeit sweeter than what I'm used to. Service was fast and friendly!
