    We had lunch today at the CurbBBQ food truck at the "On Tap" food truck lot on the east side of Bend. I would definitely give it a 5++ star rating! Service was prompt and excellent. We had the brisket sandwich w/fries and the pulled pork with coleslaw. The portions were hugh and the food delicious! The coleslaw was beyond excellent and I'm a "Coleslaw Nut". Couldn't talk the owner out of his homemade coleslaw dressing, but tried... Oh, and the food truck lot was spacious, clean and nicely shaded on a warm Bend afternoon. I'd highly recommend the CurbBBQ food truck!!!

    Brisket Grilled Cheese

    I was in bend from Portland doing deliveries, my buddy recommended this place a couple days prior. He recommended the brisket grilled cheese. It was about 4 miles out of my way this past Wednesday during the snow storm but brisket grilled cheese sounded sooo good & it did not disappoint. It had that melty, cheesy, smokey goodness you would expect. The guy didn't seem happy to be at work. Not friendly at all otherwise this would be a 4.5 star since it is a food truck & yelp wont let me do 1/2 stars. Well done on the food. Great portion excellent taste! I'll be back

    Where's the meat??

    This what an 18 dollar pork rib special looks like at curb-BBQ. The ribs are literally CRUNCHY!! More like jerky and that not an exaggeration. Under the flap of chewy grizzle is just unseasoned, plain pork. These might even be parboiled ribs as there is not sign of smoke that I can see or tater. Tossed it all in the trash except the cornbread which is good but seemed boxed. These guys need to pay a visit to Roger That BBQ in Salem, Matt's BBQ in PDX or Pete's Meats at Oregon City Brewery and have them teach them how to make bbq. This really should just be a burger cart cuz the double down burger is actually pretty good but the few offerings of " BBQ" are pretty disappointing.

    The smallest order of tacos and cold fries.

    Follow up after owner responded. Very prompt response to my negative review. He did a nice job following up with me. We will give them another shot. ***************** We ordered three items from Curbbq on New Years Eve. In the attached picture, you will see the smallest three tacos I have ever seen. We paid 10 dollars for 5 bites of taco. Look nothing like the picture on their website. They tasted good, but it was not even an appetizer size. We also ordered a brisket grilled cheese. The sandwich was good. The fries were bone cold, not lightly warmed, actually cold. Like out of the fridge, cold. We asked for a new order of fries. They dumped a luke warm pile of fries on top of the cold ones. The bbq chicken wrap was good. I do not think we will be back. The truck was located at On Tap

    Smoked wings....

    Salty and honestly for a basket of wings this small, please don't charge what you're charging.

    Excellent brisket. The sides are high quality. Price feels appropriate for the quantity. Will be going back for more.

The portions make sense for the price, the quality is consistent, and you don't leave feeling ripped off. I also really appreciate that they package their to-go food cleanly and securely. Nothing spills, nothing's sloppy. Location: It's in a super convenient spot. I can call the order in from work, they tell me it'll be ready in 15 minutes, and we pick it up on the way home. Easy, no stress, and it still feels like a treat at the end of the day. Tips: The combos are the way to go if you want a ton of food and some variation. It's the easiest way to try a little of everything without spending a fortune. Don't forget the coleslaw and sides! Think ahead about buns and sides if you're planning to stretch it into multiple meals. We keep fresh buns at home and toast them for each round, then reheat the pulled pork and pile it on with coleslaw - so good and enough food to last us a few days. To pair, throw together quick nachos (tortilla chips, shredded cheese, sliced black olives) in the microwave for 60 seconds - pair with sour cream and salsas you like! At home, if you're heating the potatoes, add a little butter on top before warming them up. It keeps everything moist and brings the flavor back to life. PSA: I love that it's an older Bend staple. Baldy's hasn't changed in the 26 years I've been going, and I had no clue it opened in 2005 as well (according to Bend Source)! It feels good supporting a place that's been around for that long, especially with the cost and quality control that comes with good meat. Genuinely, it's the only barbecue spot in Bend that's never let me down (or given tummy-trouble's) - so yeah, let's support the locals that keep showing up.

A suggestion maybe would be create a small section outside. that's a no kid table for sunshine and drinking too. ;) it looks like they're making good use of their space. I noticed many changes since the last visit. Looks like they have a party room you could rent, lots of fun well designed swag for purchase, ect.

    For reasons unrelated to restaurant quality or reputation, we'd avoided Zydeco. Recently, however,…read morealong with a couple friends, we decided to give it a shot. Verdict: Zydeco is an outstanding restaurant in virtually every way. No negatives to report. The place is popular - arriving just before opening on a weekday, there was a line to get in. Reservations are definitely a good idea here. Our early arrival in line allowed us to choose a good table in the back, where it wouldn't be too hectic. That too was a good idea as the place gets loud with conversation when it fills up. Music wasn't loud, just the people. The menu isn't huge but there are quite a few, varied choices. Given the meal was a bit of a splurge for us, I essentially ignored the prices, which are not trivial by any means. Fine dining entails spending money. Zydeco has a ton of reviews and as the menu apparently doesn't change, I'll just say everything we ordered was great. Cocktails too. The Bramble Down is exquisite. Service was top tier as well. Timely, attentive, professional without being stiff. The capstone to our experience involved the bill. We actually had a gift card from 2017 - nine years ago. While it certainly didn't cover the whole bill, or even half, it was a nice way to defray costs. Unfortunately, when the server ran the gift card, it showed no balance. Not sure why but perhaps over the years, the card had been erased by stray EMF. Despite that and given we provided the card receipt, the restaurant honored the card for the full amount anyway. Well done. Highly recommended.
