Frommer's Review

This rather nondescript restaurant on Bend's busy Third Street is one of my favorite restaurants in town. With creative food and good service, Zydeco Kitchen is a far more enjoyable place for dinner than some of the much publicized downtown restaurants. Despite the name, this is not specifically a Cajun or New Orleans-style restaurant, although you can start your meal with wonderful shrimp and grits cakes. After that, I always go for the grilled redfish with Dungeness crab and spicy Zydeco sauce. Be sure to start your meal with a blueberry martini and finish up with the almond wet cake, which is like the classic Latin American tres leches cake.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
