Once again you outdid yourself! We have been to The Phoenix probably six to seven times in the last four years and we have had the best meals and the best service! This evening we were celebrating our 17th anniversary and we were not disappointed. We look forward to having Nikki O. as our server when we come in, she is a sparkling addition to the fantastic chef(s)! I had the surf and turf special tonight -- if I was at home, I would have licked the plate!! Our last celebration at another place in Sun River (sooo overrated and over priced!!) was an enormous embarrassment with visiting friends. One time was the last time and The Phoenix is our Go To. Thank you for your excellent care and food! Since, Kevin and Jane Schumacher read more

A lot of parking. Waitress was very nice and came by to fill our water and ask us how our food was. The wings were cooked very well-crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The beet and kale salad was incredible with the toasted hazelnuts, grilled kale, goat cheese, roasted beets. Very good portion. Delicious and highly recommend. Wasn't highly impressed with my entree. The mahi mahi I ordered wasn't seasoned well and dry. But the mango salsa and mashed potatoes were good. Some of the vegetables were cooked well but some were cooked too long and soggy. read more

The Phoenix for several years has been our favorite "go to" restaurant for excellent food and service. Whether a sandwich, salad, a main entree,or accommodation for a special occasion, we have always been pleased. SADLY, we have only a few days left to enjoy this gem. Because of an unrenewable lease, they will be closing forever in Bend after July 27. THANK YOU, PHOENIX, for all the wonderful memories. Godspeed. We will miss you. read more

Were have read a number of recommendations for The Phoenix. Thanks to the car's GPS we were able to find the restaurant and the parking lot. We were seated immediately and given menus. I have forgotten the name of our waitress; but, she was the kind of waitress that I want to serve me at every restaurant. She was appropriately friendly, professional with a nice sense of humor. I ordered Fried Chicken Sandwich with fries and my wife ordered The Phoenix Hamburger with fries. This just might be the best Fried Chicken Sandwich that I have enjoyed. Next time I am going to order it with Buffalo Sauce. The fries passed the Good-When-Cold Test so well that I asked our waitress to take them away to keep me from eating all of them. My wife to,d me that her burger was very good. We will be back! read more

I was in the mood for a salmon salad and this place did not disappoint. The salmon was fresh and cooked to perfection and it was just the correct amount of dressing! I will definitely return to sample some of their other food items. Service (at the bar) 10/10 Food 9/10 read more

Nice open restaurant. We have been here twice with large family gatherings & both times put in the large back room for family tables. We had brunch here and dinner here. The groups were satisfied with their food but nothing remarkable to note. We've tried- salads, french onion soup, burgers and fries, fish n chips, chicken n waffles, chicken wings, meatloaf, Pomodoro pasta, and the most notable dish was the Chicken Marsala. The chicken Marsala was excellent. Great sauce, whipped potato and chicken. We love the location, service is good but the majority of each party left feeling there was nothing remarkable after both visits. read more

I've only gone here twice and both times were great! I don't know why I don't go often enough because they have an amazing happy hour and great food/drinks. The first time I went was for happy hour. I had a margarita and calamari. The second time was for a birthday party in the rented room. I had a mimosa and their sirloin steak. The steak was only okay but everything else was wonderful. Service is great and they have plenty of parking. read more

I will start with the positive. It was near our hotel. We opted todo takeout and the ordering was seamless although she had to ask the chef several times "if it was ok" for me to order the prime rib special. This comes with baked potato and veggies. The veggies were good. Now the bad, I have never in my life paid $104 for two prime rib with a loaded baked potato and veggies. Wow, ok maybe it is a large cut, nope, average, the au jus tasted like beef broth. Where was the seasoning? There was no seasoning in the thing- if it wasn't for the horseradish. I DO not recommend getting this 'special'. Overpriced for bland food. read more

The food is good and the service is great..we always celebrate our birthdays with our friends.. there's a private space that we can enjoy ..

The Phoenix was recommended as a good place for a steak that won't hurt your wallet (much). And it offers quite a lot of options for those who don't eat meat. We had a table for three reserved for 6 on a weeknight and while we were seated almost immediately, the restaurant was quite busy. - Blackened NY steak: Nicely blackened, not 'melt in your mouth' but very good. It's not a huge cut. Maybe Blacksmith, Brickhouse, Bos Taurus or Kayo's might offer a marginally better steak but they also charge more. - Salmon piccata: excellent rendition of salmon. - 'Chefs' vegetable side: a bit disappointing, actually. Green beans needed a little further cooking and the carrots & broccoli were bland. Needs seasoning and maybe another choice of vegetables. I think the chef phoned this one in. - Baked potato: perfectly cooked. Love the all-booth seating in the dining room. A bit loud in the restaurant. Music is unnecessary. Great service. Tap list is pretty extensive for a restaurant. I like that they have details on each beer on the back of the menu. Speaking of, why do restaurants only give a table of three one drink menu? Never understood that. I'll try to peel myself away from the brewpubs in town and visit occasionally. read more

We went in here around 6:30 on a Sunday and sat in the lounge so we could watch football. We were surprised to see the generous Sunday happy hour with menu items a few bucks off and a few added items not on the regular menu. I enjoyed the beer battered halibut. It was 3 nice pieces that tasted good and weren't soggy or too greasy, they came with some shoestring fries and some lightly dressed coleslaw. My wife had the blackened halibut tacos. She really enjoyed it. It was a small serving of fish (but only $13). The best part of the evening was watching the staff deal with some drunk guy at the bar. He told the bartender that he didn't believe that he played football in high school. He kept dangerously leaning back in his stool on just two legs. The staff kept telling him he needed to stop. At one point I heard the bartender politely tell him that he was no longer enjoying their conversation. It was great entertainment. read more

Solid dinner or lunch choice on Bend's east side. Great service, large and varied menu. Food prepared as ordered. Comfortable setting, ample parking. read more

A group of four of us came on a Saturday and sat I. The bar. We ordered the Buffalo Wings, Taco Salad and the Chicken Piccata. Everything was delicious and the service was great. Each of us ordered a Long Island and although they weren't super tasty, they were strong and worth the purchase. We had eaten all over Bend and this was the best food experience this far. Good job Phoenix!! read more

We have been eating here for years now and the food is always delicious and the service is great for a NW restaurant. The french onion soup here is amazing and not to be overlooked. We have tried many dishes over the years and they seem to consistently do a great job. The chicken piccata is probably my favorite dish here. The pizza is very good as well as so many of their other menu items. The only thing I would change is the 3 piece fish and chips; I would love it if they put like a 5 piece option on the menu. I would gladly pay more to get more if their amazing fish. This place is often pretty busy so I would recommend getting reservations. read more

Very good I took my children and very kid friendly we enjoyed our meal . Will come again

Great food and service. Our server Christina was knowledgeable and attentive without being intrusive, We shared a small salad. Small means large and large means gigantic. Had a great potato leek soup that was substantial. Finished off with a veggie pizza that was excellent and while personal size perfect for sharing. Great place for lunch. One more comment. The place is very clean. Even the rafters and light fixtures are clean! read more

A great place for casual low cost high value meal. Lots of expensive restaurants in Bend. This place is great for a week night dinner when mom doesn't want to cook and you don't break the bank. Really good service. Quick and efficient. I love the variety of salad options. Good for soups also. Entrees are substantial and great value. My favorite is warm spinach salad with tuna. read more

Very disappointed Sunday night. Chicken was tough, skin was hard; Ceasar skimped on parmesan; Shrimp pesto had so much oil that it was hard to eat, even harder to digest- brought most of it home to amend later. Sorry read more

Great tasting, fresh ingredients and great service. Chicken Marsala tasted amazing! Loaded baked potato and the vegetables were so delicious! My friend and I split that and the pork tenderloin with cumin and coriander. Creative dish from a chef that enjoys great food. Definitely worth the visit! read more

The food was ok... no garnish on the plate - 2 small tacos a tiny cup of black beans - that's it. I tipped the waitress well because she was sweet and it's not her fault. Right accross the street I could have gotten a great taco plate for less cash and much much more with a great, cheerful atmosphere. The Phoenix is dark and dreary. read more

The food here isn't bad. They have good happy hour type foods. Drinks are always fine and it's usually not terribly loud which is nice because two of our friends are hearing impaired. 1 star because of the obnoxious waitress that seems to be there every time we go. Hispanic lady with a smart mouth that thinks she's witty. We go here fairly regularly and enjoy the food and atmosphere but would love to go without the sarcasm, banter and low brow insults . Everyone takes it in stride and doesn't make any big deal of it but it definitely gets old fast. read more

food is great staff very nice and helpful tables are very comfotable love this place so sad to see it go

We tried this while visiting Bend. Very tasty, nicely presented, a little spendy, but a good splurge

What's happening at THE PHOENIX Restaurant? Is the pandemic affecting their business too!? For the past 3 years, it had been a go to restaurant for me. Last night we ordered FISH & CHIPS and the Phoenix Salad and 2 sides of Coleslaw. Picked Halibut as the fish instead of Cod, and got 3 skinny pieces of fish, fries n a scoop of coleslaw for $21. The coleslaw smelled sour n tasted a bit weird, so didn't eat much and threw out the rest. PHOENIX salad, which is usually very fresh, looked like it was sitting out for a few hours. The portions which are usually enough, was meager. Price of this meal.....$40 including tip. I realize this pandemic is making it difficult for all businesses to secure quality help, but if prices are increased to get quality help, I would be willing to pay the increase, but not if the food quality suffers. I'm sad for this restaurant. Hope they can bounce back so I can continue to support them. I'm not so sure this is going to happen. Hope I'm wrong. read more

This place used to be good I really wanted to like this place but they have gone downhill last time I was there I did not have a good experience the burger was bland and had no flavor and the Caesar salad tasted very funky also the service was terrible the reason I gave this place 3 stars it's because this place used to have really good food and the atmosphere is really nice and I'm very sad this place is going out of business very soon read more

I love this restaurant. I have lived in Bend 20 years and this is the best restaurant in the area! For starters they still allow reservations which for young families is amazing. Their menu is so diverse you can please everyone, and I have NEVER had one thing at this restaurant that wasn't delicious. The portions are more than fair, especially for the price and the service is excellent! The restaurant itself is clean, spacious and offers a pleasant ambiance. I hesitate to let the secret of this restaurant out of the bag but I want it to last in this crazy economy! To the owners, you are killing in a town of over-rated restaurants! Local family of five! read more

First time eating out in Bend. Went for the solid four-star rating and was excited to visit. For the five years I have been following the keto diet I have had no problem finding a good keto meal practically anywhere. I explained my preferences to my server, and picked the burger -- which starts out at $13. I of course did not need the bun, or the fries on the side, and they could not substitute anything else to round out my meal. An extra salad would have been an extra $3.50. So I had a fine-tasting "seven-ounce" burger, done to my request which was medium rare, with a scant few onion slices, some sad thin tomato slices, a few small pieces of somewhat fresh lettuce, the pickles were useless because they were sweet & sour -- which we had already discussed, no sugar for me; a tiny amount of bleu cheese sprinkles -- which I paid an extra $1 for, a small chunk of avocado, which added another $1.50, and two decent slices of bacon, at an extra $2.00. This burger was $17.50. I decided to tip $3.50, so my bill was $21.00. Everything was tasty, so I gave two stars for tasty. The restaurant interior was lovely. Service was good. But really? THIS was a twenty-one-dollar meal? Seriously??!!! Also, this is my "OMAD," my one meal a day meal. My twenty-one-dollar one meal for the day. I will not be going back. I will find a little hole-in-the-wall burger place somewhere that actually serves an actual MEAL for $21.00 when I order a meal. Sheesh. read more

The Phoenix - My keto burger. $21 with tip. - Burgers Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Had a great portabella sandwich and an ice cold Coors sat at the bar and both bartenders were very polite

One of the best meals I have had in a long time. We took our grandson out to dinner and decided to try this place. A bit spendy, but worth it. Grandson and I couldn't decide between the Flat Iron steak or the Pork Tenderloin so we each ordered one and split it. The Chefs veggies were so good, the potatoes great, the mess top of the line. The waitresses were so attentive, we never had to wait on anything. read more

Our first time there we sat in the bar and had amazing halibut and shrimp tacos. So good and a great vibe. Last night we were excited to go back and made reservations for the dining room. The bar is much better if you want to talk, it was so noisy. We ordered the salmon in an Asian sauce. It was swimming in it and I had to trade with my husband as the sauce was loaded with sugar. His salmon was better in a wine and butter sauce. They cook the salmon to perfection but then drown it. Too bad. We will go back for a taco and beer in the bar read more

Decent overall food but nothing spectacular. I didn't like how they didn't have Diet Coke. Also, the wait times are extremely long on the nights where you typically want to go out to eat. read more

Good food, chill and relaxed atmosphere. Food came out fast and the bread beforehand was a nice surprise. Prices were definitely reasonable. Ribs on the kids menu was also great considering most kids menus just have burger , chicken, grilled cheese. read more

The service was extraordinarily slow and there were only maybe five tables she had. We waited at our table for 1/2 hour before our order was taken and she just wasn't waiting on us at all. Glasses sat empty, when my order was cold and I said we have already been waiting 40 minutes she went to the whole "well you have to understand...doing the best we can...it's crazy in here..." there is now one other table around us with people. Pesto chicken sandwich was bland, boring. No seasoning on the chicken, focaccia bun was flavorless (how is that possible?), pesto was bland (how is that possible?), I am super disappointed and will not be back. read more

Great friendly service. And the best yummy food.we enjoy the bar and happy hour enjoy games on tv basketball, baseball,football good place to gather with friends and family. Also have nice setting for dinner if don't want to be in the bar side. read more

When I moved to Bend five years ago, I did not know of any restaurants in Bend. The Phoenix was near me and my dishes, pots and pans were still in boxes. I went into the Phoenix not knowing the restaurant. The hostess greeted me and made feel very welcome.. The service was great and the food was wonderful. I am so glad I did. I have been coming to the Phoenix for the past five years and I have not had a bad experience. read more

Love the wide variety of food and it is always delicious. Be sure to get a reservation even on week nights and parking is a pain, but the inconvenience is worth it. read more

Fairly good. Crab bisque was very good, but crab cakes were very dry. Atmosphere was nice, cute place and good service. Will give it another try. read more

Food was excellent, waitresses were great, time for food delivery was very long. Don't be in a hurry.

Food and value were good, as always. Our server in the bar was disappointing. My drink came smelling strongly of chlorine, most likely from the dishwasher. It has happened to us here before. We would've expected the server to apologize and replace the drink. Instead, she said nothing and looked at a as if to say, "So what's the problem?!" She ended up replacing the drink but the interaction was unpleasant and inappropriate. Very disappointed in how we were treated. read more

French onion soup is to die for! So is the salon piccata. This restaurant never disappoints.
