(Highly recommend the falls hike). On our way, we stopped at The Point, just outside of Sweet Home. Not much to look at from the outside and kind of a diner atmosphere inside. Somewhere, I read you had a "view" to the water. As you can see from the picture, it's a view (sort of) to Foster Reservoir. OK. However, the food and service were surprisingly good! I ordered the special of the day, a Chipotle Burger. Cooked perfectly with 1/3 lb local beef patty, bacon, chipotle sauce, lettuce, red onion and accompanied by some very good fries. My wife had the grilled cheese and it was awesome as well. Her only complaint was it had too much bacon. Yes, you heard that right, too much bacon. I also have been trying NA beers and the only brand I have found I like is Deschutes out of Bend. They had a Golden that I hadn't heard of and it was, in true Deschutes fashion, very good. Our server was Becky and she was amazing. She greets the regulars by name, was very helpful and informative, but not too chatty. If we were in this area again, we would definitely go back. Without hesitation. Great find!

I didn't breathe between bites--I simply inhaled the deliciousness. It's been 8 hrs and I am still thinking about this burger. Probably will still be thinking about it tomorrow too.

But this place in Bend... this is serious burger territory. First thing you notice: they're not messing around with the menu. Just burgers that understand what a burger is supposed to be. Double patty. Brioche bun. Cheese doing its job. America. I ordered The O.G. because I respect tradition. American cheese, caramelized onions, burger sauce. Simple system. Works great. Like a pickup truck that starts every time. My buddy got The Popper which is basically what happens when a jalapeño popper and a burger start collaborating. Bacon, jalapeño cream cheese, ranch. It looked like something a scientist made to test the limits of happiness. Fries were solid. Soda cold. No weird nonsense. Just burgers doing burger things. Only reason it's 4 stars instead of 5 is because if I lived closer I would probably eat here too often and that feels medically irresponsible. I'd give it 6 stars if Yelp understood burgers better.

As a committed member of this community, I strongly support local businesses--but not at the expense of integrity and accountability. It is unacceptable for an employee, Theresa, to use this business as a vehicle/platform for spreading malicious gossip and falsehoods about others in the community. This conduct is not only unethical, it reflects a serious failure of oversight by the business owner. Such gross negligence will not be ignored. Legal action is now being pursued to address the harm caused. read more

I was greeted by a very friendly server named Logan, he showed me to a booth, and let me settle in. After a few moments he came back with some fresh rolls and took my drink order, I opted for a glass of the house Pinot Noir. They have a nice varied menu and also offer some Chef specials. I decided on the Parmesan Crusted Halibut as my entree and a Ceaser salad to start. The salad arrived quickly and looked very good, I was informed that they had just made fresh croutons. After finishing my salad, which was very good the croutons were light and crispy, my dinner arrived. The overall presentation was excellent, the potatoes had a nice flavor and went well with the fish and asparagus. The halibut was cooked just right and the crust was perfect. Overall the meal was exceptionally delicious. I will make an effort to to come back and try more of the menu. I was informed that Saturday evening is a good time to stop in as they have live music. Highly recommended for a nice dinner with spouse, friends or work associates.

I get 1/3 of a drink. I've been in the restaurant industry for over 20 years and I have absolutely zero patience nor empathy for places like this. I paid 6.00 for a small drink that was mediocre at best because they don't know how to balance lemonade with simple syrup or strawberry juice. We won't be ordering from here again and I'd suggest you didn't either. Also, medium poached eggs have a runny yolk: if you put poached eggs on your menu at least do them properly. We got hard poached.

The mushrooms added a much needed earthy element to the richness of the cheese and it was also smothered in delicious buttery garlic cloves. I with the little bread sliced had been toasted but easily one of the best times on the menu. Steak bites: garlic butter was tasty and the steak bites were soft and melted in your mouth. The bread slices didn't seem necessary but a good appetizer. I ordered the salmon as my main entree and it came with arugula, Brussels sprouts, red onions and tomatoes. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the dressing on the greens was really good. I think there was a little too much arugula but everything tastes really great together. Our server was attentive, friendly and remembered everything we ordered right down to the modifications. Really cool atmosphere, upstairs seating and a crazy looking bar area.
