    Brisket Sandwich

    Went to the food truck in Bend--quick service and oh my god that brisket!!! It was so tender, moist (hate that word but when it works, it works) and peppery. Some of the best damn brisket. Ridiculous!!! The sandwich was packed with it. Also, the Beale bbq sauce is a nice tangy and pepper Carolina bbq style. Highly recommend

    Spare ribs meat plate with baked beans and fishy chips

    I don't know what happened to this place over the last year or so. We used to make a special trip out from Bend just to eat at Pop's, but recently the meat has been oversalted, rubbery, and dry. We hoped it was just bad luck (every restaurant has good days and bad days) but today we actually dumped most of our $50 lunch in the trash! The ribs were ungodly salty and dry, with only a few edible bites between our two meat plates. The chips tasted like fish of all things, the baked beans that said on the menu "not sweet" were in fact very sweet, and the potatoes in the potato salad were undercooked to the point of crunchy. Hoping whatever went sideways goes back to normal, because it used to be good BBQ!

    Just sat down after a long drive and went to pops bbq. Staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and quick to give recommendations. Food came out quickly. I had the brisket, potato salad, and grits. It's was really good considering it's tough to find good southern bbq in oregon. Highly recommend to anyone stopping through sisters. Definitely coming back for more.

    Probably 1 of the 10 best bbq places I've been. Try the brisket. The 2 boys running the place are upbeat and fun.

    Brisket and ribs with chips and broccoli salad

    Had the two meat plate - brisket and ribs with the homemade chips and broccoli salad. So full, happy belly!! Fast service and friendly staff. It's a food truck. Nice covered picnic tables in a garden setting. Worth the stop. Had a beer from The Barn to wash it all down, yum.

    Smoked Wings

    I know I left a review already when we first found this cart, but we have gone back every weekend since!! Today my husband and I literally ate A POUND of Pulled Pork and 1/2 a dozen wings. Also brought our parents and they ordered the Brisket and Chili and there was nothing left of their plate. I wish I would remember to take pics before I touch the food but its so good I cannot hold back. Do yourself a favor and GET YOURSELF SOME POP'S SOUTHERN BBQ!! Even if you order from a different food cart when your there get some Pop's to go!

    This gem of a food cart is tucked away in a yard with beer, fireplaces and live music! The chicken wings come with a dry rub and sauce is optional. The wings were incredible as-is although they do have a choice of 3 bbq sauces and I found myself falling in love with their Lonestar sauce! I will be taking some back to Portland with me. I ended up going back for seconds and tried the ribs, they had an incredible dry rub as well and fell right off the bone. Everything here exceeded expectations and if you find yourself stomping around Bend, OR I highly recommend checking this place out!

    Good but $25 for the two meat plate is kind of expensive. They should add another meat or reduce the price

    Probably the best bbq in Oregon. My certified Texan bf says the brisket is on point and I say the chachos are the bees knees.

    Brisket and sides were great. Ordered it for pick up and he waited to cut the brisket once I was there. It melted in my mouth!

    We've never had anything but an exceptional meal at Zydeco in nine years here. Staff is always…read moreextremely professional and kind. The food is consistently delicious and always fresh. And the ambience is just lovely. If you're looking for something of a romantic dinner in Bend, I would say this should be near the top of your list. In the summer, they have the fun rooftop bar, which is really cool too. Just make sure you get an umbrella. It can be hot!

    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.
