BEND RESTAURANTS
ALLOW US TO PREPARE THE DETAILS
There is no doubt that one could dine at Brasada Ranch's various fine eateries for days on end and never tire of our amazing food. But it's also true that Bend Oregon and Central Oregon in general are home to dozens of notable and incredible restaurants and unique food and beverage experiences. And yet Central Oregon remains small enough that procuring a reservation anywhere is easy, and something that we here on the Ranch would be happy to do for you.
Here we list a few of our favorite Central Oregon destination restaurants including contact information, or feel free to call us and we'll make arrangements for you at one of these or many other fabulous restaurants.
Central Oregon Restaurants
900 Wall, Bend. The inspiration for 900 Wall comes from a sincere desire to be a strong part of the Central Oregon community. 900 Wall is a gathering place in a great old building in downtown Bend that provides guests with outstanding food, drink and service, in a comfortable, social atmosphere. A large bar offers a great happy hour nightly. (541) 323-6295,

Anthony's Home Port, Bend. The menu here features delicious fresh Northwest seafood flown-in directly from the ocean, but the real attraction is this restaurant's location in the Old Mill District. The spectacular view of the Deschutes River as well as Mt. Bachelor and the Three Sisters Mountains provides such a stunning backdrop you'll hardly care what you eat (and it's all fabulous anyway). Make a reservation for sunset; in the summer, sit outdoors and watch the reflection off of the river. (541) 389-8998,

The Blacksmith Steakhouse, Bar and Lounge, Bend.
