Ordering at the counter seemed interesting to me due to the layout of the dining room, but the staff knew exactly what they were doing and were able to direct us to a seat easily! Our food and drinks also came in a timing manner. I really appreciated that we could see all the way back into the kitchen and there was transparency between the kitchen and the consumers. The bar looked gorgeous and I would definetly like to sit there next time for the vibes. I also loved that they provided self-serve boxes, napkins, and utensils but still had a sign asking patrons to be concious of how much they're using. The overall flow between ordering, self serve, and dining was super efficient and nice! Can't wait to come here again!

Product/Food: I ordered the buffalo chik'n crunchwrap and my boyfriend ordered the nacho cheeze crunchwrap. As someone who despises eating lettuce, the way the cold and warm ingredients are intentionally layered throughout the crunchwrap is beyond delicious. I ate my crunchwrap within minutes of it being hitting the table. The tortilla was perfectly flaky, the homemade ranch was an amazing texture, and the chick'n was seasoned to perfection. Ambiance: Toasty is a small food trunk in the Podski food truck pod complex. It is incredibly busy and it can be difficult to find a seat. However, it is fun and lively with some great people watching opportunities once you are seated. Toasty will continue to be our favorite spot to eat at in Bend!

I was seated quickly at a small table near the front of the restaurant by a friendly host. The restaurant itself is so fun and quirky, with colorful decor and roses covering the ceiling. It has such a cheerful, playful atmosphere that immediately puts you in a good mood. A cheerful waitress came over shortly after to take my order. I ordered the Butterflies--wontons filled with Dungeness crab, garlic, cream cheese, and green onions, served with a sweet chili dipping sauce--and the Curry Basil Noodles. Everything was absolutely delicious, and the portions were incredibly generous. Despite having a couple of large parties in the restaurant, I didn't feel like I waited long for my food. I had plenty of leftovers to enjoy later, which is always a bonus! I would definitely recommend this place and hope to enjoy another meal here the next time I'm in town.

Unfortunate disappointment. We had been looking forward to this place after several local residents…read morehad recommended this spot for dinner. As a major Thai food fan having eaten in Thailand, specifically Chiang Mai several times, I was eager to try the Northern Thai spot. We had spent the whole day hiking and were excited to grub. The only redeeming factor was that there's no wait (which should be a red flag more than anything). We got the vegetarian papaya salad, tom kha, and curry noodles. Service started off great with waters and quick attention. However, the food was beyond disappointing. The papaya salad was artificially sweetened, with some odd sweet syrup poured over the combination of papaya and one sole tomato slice. No citrus or spice could be tasted. The tom kha was also not well made, with it being sweet more than anything and the tofu tasting like it has been cut up and tossed in the soup 1 minute before service. The curry noodles started off strong with a nice spice level with tofu well cooked but then chunks of the curry powder with heavy turmeric were not cooked in so landed heavy in the mouth. The combination of the three dishes as one would expect was disappointing. Dishes seemed to be rushed out of the kitchen before ending service for the night. I think unfortunately the service was the most disappointing. Had they been slightly more understanding I would have not been inclined to leave this review. However, there was instant dismissal of our disappointment with our food with an assumption that we just didn't want to pay for the meal, which was far from the truth. Would definitely not return here and would not recommend this restaurant. I am saddened to hear that this is touted as one of the better Thai restaurants in Bend. If only fellow travelers and the great people of Bend knew.

Got a quick pic before the next group was seated. Cute decor.

That's fine, places get busy quickly on a Sunday morning. Ended up waiting nearly an hour. It happens and sometimes it's worth it for good food. Our waitress was kind but clearly needed more help. Took her 15 minutes to get to our table. I asked her to level with me: How long would our food really take, because we have two antsy kids. She says 20 minutes. That's quick! Okay, we order. 10 minutes later, they say sorry we are out of orange juice. We did not order orange juice. They say they do have chocolate milk, which we did order. Glass (like, adult glass) comes for my kid and the guy explains they are out of chocolate milk so they mixed cold milk with hot cocoa powder. Looks chunky. He apologizes and says he needs to go across the street to get orange juice and chocolate milk so we can wait if we want. We don't. We just want to eat and leave. I order iced coffee (on the menu), they only have canned cold brew. Not ideal but fine. Burger (something I could honestly make at home) comes with dry breakfast potatoes. The flattest pancakes I've ever seen, complete with black grease marks from the griddle. I appreciate that the patio was nice and there was a water bowl for our dog but there were so many rookie mistakes that it felt like a restaurant that just opened last week and we're working out kinks. I'm actually annoyed at the 5-star reviews because there's no way they are at the same place we did.

Had an absolutely fantastic dining experience at The Phoenix Restaurant! The staff was not only kind but also lovely, adding a wonderful touch to our meal. The booths offered a sense of privacy, making it perfect for our family of six. The food was nothing short of great--served warm and tasting amazing. We tried the crab bisque, kid's hot dog, fish & chips, and halibut tacos - all outstanding dishes that pleased every palate at the table. The service matched the exceptional food, and the atmosphere made it an all-around delightful lunch. I highly recommend the Fish Tacos, Halibut Tacos, and the fish and crab bisque.

Good neighborhood joint for eastsiders. I live out of town it is the closest place to find a full service bar and restaurant. It is not the best place in town but it is what it is: an alternative to the pizza brewery place down the street. They have fish and chips, pasta, Asian dishes, meatloaf, tacos and sliders. Lots of salads, and yes even more pizza. Sometimes they forget a little with the orders, but it's over all pretty good. Never been a fan of the dining room, I always sit in the bar section. If you want a 5 star meal, go to Ariana's or something. If you are in need of a reliable workhorse daily-driver type place, try the Phoenix. read more

We ordered a meat lovers pizza with the hot honey drizzle and got to watch them prepare it and toss it in their fire oven. The crust was airy and delicious. If I'm being honest, it reminds me of how Pizza Hut used to taste in the 90s and I mean that as a huge compliment.
