Our second visit to Yoli. We opted for the 5 course menu for $60. Started with an excellent cocktail. Each of the courses we selected was outstanding, such a wonderful mix of flavors. Service was flawless, just the right level of attention and very timely delivery of each course. Definitely recommend that menu option - but bring an appetite!

Terra’s new menu is varied and terrific. Many choices for my wife is vegan and for me who isn’t. Difficult choice for me between the pasta and meat options. I chose the homemade pappardelle dish and it was delicious, as good or better than top restaurants in San Francisco where I eat frequently.

This was the best meal we have had in Sunriver (and probably in Bend). My wife ordered the pork chop in a cherry sauce. I had the duck breast glazed with huckleberry sauce served over polenta. Both our entrees were excellent and well-prepared. Our server was friendly and helpful. He was very knowledgeable about the wine list. Overall a great experience.

We booked here as we couldn’t get into the newer steakhouses in Bend with a day of reservation. I had been years ago and always had a good experience. The specials and menu were great as with many options to choose from. Two of us had seafood and two had steaks. All was delicious!! Service was great as well. Restaurant was full and ambiance felt cozy and noise was minimal. I marked value as less but not necessarily specific to this restaurant as prices at all the restaurants in Bend have increased. The food / service was very good but still seemed too high priced for 4 people. We had a lovely evening and would definitely go again. Brickhouse continues to be a great choice!
