The new name is \\\"Zydeco West\\\" (to confirm what most Bendites knew - it is owned by the folks at Zydeco downtown). Great food, COVID careful, and nice staff. One of our top favorites!

Reviewing for take out, while restaurant is closed due to coronavirus. 1st, no one was wearing gloves that I could see. Nor masks. I dont know how necessary either is but it would have been reassuring to see them. I watched while the server took the container of salad dressing from cooks, put a lid on it and placed it in with the salad, as per normal times. I admit that I am likely over paranoid but that's two people that touched the container without gloves and it's in with my salad. Now, on to the food. Tasty and hot but no bread for my pasta or wife's steak dinner. For $19 and $28 respectively you'd think they could throw in a couple rolls. So unless they change protocols we probably won't be doing their take out again during coronavirus.

Bistro 28 always provides delicious food and outstanding service. Dustin is a friendly and efficient server who always makes our dining experience extra special.

We rarely write a negative review but this time we're hoping the feedback helps them to improve.....the 3 of us arrived around 4:45 for an early dinner with my 90 year old dad. Just a few tables occupied. We had to wait 1 hour to get our food (2 salads, 2 crab cakes). Wait person was very nice (not her fault), comped drinks but the damage had been done. That's a deal breaker to have to wait that long, especially for an older person. It put a strain on our evening. Will not return.

We went for Valentine’s Day dinner and had an amazing time. I hesitate to make a recommendation online because I don’t want to let the cat out of the bag but Bistro28 has some of the best food in town, amazing service, and a really cool vibe (once you forget your in the athletic center)!

Good locals place, decent menu and beer selection. Casual dinning.

Great food and well priced. Excellent bread and oil to start. We had the ahi meal and wood fired chicken. Both were great!

Loved zydeco much better but we also just did take out vs dine in. Had the half kale & romaine salad w fried chicken and I didn't love the taste of the fried chicken. Burger was good and fries are the tiny shoestring variety. Didn't love the wings eIther - just ok. Zydeco on the other hand got 5 stars!
Excellent service and food. Very friendly and warm.

I wish they had some healthy vegan options other than modifying a salad.

First, and last, time we'll be here. We were told that the owners of Zydeco in downtown Bend this place and if they do they have work to do. We turned up early for our reservation and went to the bar to get a drink. That took so long (10 minutes and nothing) that we gave up. So we sat on the sofa and waited, and waited, for our table. A simple "we'll have you table for you in a couple of minutes" would have been appreciated.

Food and service was exceptional

the service here was absolutely top-notch. We got lucky enough to experience the Halibut, which they don't have all of the time. It was (and I stress) the best halibut we've ever had!
