“My wife and I came here for our anniversary. On the reservation I put it that it was our anniversary. When we walked in and I stated my name and the hostest who was very friendly said happy anniversary. After we were seated we were greeted by the gentleman who waited on us. Jonas is his name. This guy not only well exceeded out expectations of customer service he raised the bar on what customer service truly is. He knew the menu like the back of his hand. When you asked for recommendations between dishes he was honest and made genuine recommendations. I work in customer service myself. He just made me raise the bar in my work. The way our entire dinner went from the greeting to leaving made it feel like they were here for only my wife and I. Thank you Jonas and the rest of the Brickhouse. Food was amazing and service was amazing. If your are not coming here you are missing out. See you all soon“

“I came in with another friend while we were passing through Bend on an Oregon trip, we came around 3 pm so it wasn't very busy, which gave us time to look over the menu! We were immediately greeted by a few of the employees, they were very nice, I didn't catch their names though. They asked us if we were first timers and gave a run down of their menu, asked us if we wanted to sit and look over the menu and brought us fresh fried potato chips while we decided what to eat! Very nice of them. We ordered the Briqueso and the pizza sandwiches. The Briqueso was my favorite! Full of veggies and flavor, the pizza was very yummy too, I just preferred the veggies at the time. The woman who served us too also gave us one of their dips for free for the chips since it was our first time there. We also ordered their mac and cheese, very delicious. That was very kind and it was very delicious. Whenever I'm in Bend next, I'll be bringing everybody with me here again! Very nice, very yummy, great service, great food! If you're an ooey gooey cheesy fanatic this place is amaaaazing.“

“My recent visit to Active Culture left me thoroughly impressed with their delicious gluten-free offerings. The highlight of my experience was undoubtedly their açaí bowls, which were not only visually appealing but also bursting with flavor.The açaí bowls were perfectly blended, with a velvety texture and a refreshing taste that made them a real treat. Topped with fresh fruits, granola, and a drizzle of local honey, each spoonful was a burst of tropical goodness.I appreciate the cashier putting gloves on before touching the fruit for my bowls.Aside from the açaí bowls, I also indulged in their gluten-free almond cookies, and they were simply divine. The cookies were soft, chewy, and had a rich almond flavor that was incredibly satisfying. I wish I had purchased them by the dozen.What impressed me the most about Active Culture was their commitment to offering high-quality gluten-free options without compromising on taste.Active Culture is a must-visit destination that won't disappoint. Highly recommended for anyone craving delicious and guilt-free treats!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free açaí bowl“

“I didn’t take any pictures. I was too busy questioning reality. The tots were incredible (both the burger and pulled pork), but the real star of the night was the deep fried cookie dough.It is not an exaggeration when I claim that it was totally and completely worth surviving 17 years of deep, clinical depression just so I could eat this. We are two mid-30 years old men, and we absolutely giggled as we ate it because it was so insanely good. It’s all we talked about on the drive home. We’re still talking about it now.Get. The. Cookie dough. As the sign says, you’re worth it.Also, Ally (Allie?) was an absolute delight and badass behind the counter. Will be back again soon!“

“The food has been absolutely wonderful every time I've gone, and the staff is just as nice. You get more than your money's worth and often enough to have a snack for later. I had the Jake's Megaburger, and it was exactly what was described on the menu and more, with the crinkle cut fries. The fries are the closest thing to PERFECTION. The waiter, Shelly I think was her name, was nice and very helpful. Atmosphere was good, my only problem is the bathroom. There was a concerning amount of... junk on the urinals, and zero privacy for the one to the right as it sat right next to the sink, with no wall on that side, it's probably better to go in the stall if you're a short person. Had a good time over all though, and highly suggest this restaurant. 100% worth to stop by at.“

I had thought for many years that my mother had made the best corned beef hash to date but guess what now it's been beaten by the original pancake House I would come back just for that no kidding.

“Pacific Pizza in Bend exceeded my expectations with their mouthwatering Habanero Alfredo pizza. The 18" pizza had a crusty crust that had me hooked from the first bite, offering a perfect balance of crunch and chewiness. The quality of ingredients was top-notch, and the fresh arugula added a burst of freshness to every slice. What really stood out was the perfectly balanced Habanero Alfredo sauce, which gave just the right amount of heat without overwhelming the taste buds. If you're craving a pizza that's both adventurous and satisfying, Pacific Pizza is the place to go.“
