The Grille At Crosswater - Bend

We had a 6:30pm reservation and were honestly about ready to leave. We sat for 25 minutes after receiving menus and our waters. Kristen ended up taking over as our waitress and she was AMAZING and completely turned our experience around. We each had a special. My husband had the blackened halibut with a potato leek and spinach sauce. I had the braised rack of lamb with a bean pate and Brussels sprouts. Both of our meals were cooked to perfection and deliciously mouth watering! We ended the night with the Blondie dessert curtesy of Kristen. If you go be sure to ask for Kristen and tip her well!

I made reservations for this restaurant a week from my arrival with my family. I was staying at the sunriver resort and wanted a nice dinner for new year eve. They did not return my phone call to confirm my reservation and so I called and talked to someone finally 3 days before my reservations. They told me they could get us in no earlier than 5:15 which was fine. I made It for my family of 4. We showed up and they had us down for 2 people, not 4. The gentlemen that greated us was nice, but then we had a lady with red hair come and told us very rudely that we made it for 2. That was not the case and the customer should always be right. She left and came back and sat us at a 4 person table. The entire night I watched her association with other guest and she was laughing and talking with them but was very rude to my family and my husband noticed. Maybe she thought I was not of the sature to be there. But she doesn't know who I am and what kind of life someone might have. Maybe I look to young to be able to have dinner with my family in this kind of atmosphere. The food was ok I would give it an over all 6 out of 10. The best part of this place was the amazing singer they had playing music. I feel like I was judge from the moment I walked in this place. You should never judge a book by its cover. Everyone should be treat the same because you never know who they are. I will never be back here. The price you pay for the food you get is ridiculous as well. I have gone to some high end restaurants have had better service and better steak for a lot cheaper. Ruth Chris and the chart house in Portland have better food and great service and have a returning customer for life.

Wonderful experience. Amazingly friendly group. Wonderful food. Highly recommended

We have eaten here many times over the years. Always a great meal, a great service and a impeccable atmosphere. Glad this unrivaled gemstone exists in the center of Oregon.
