Restaurantes en Bandon

We do enjoy eating a fancy meal every once in a while. Single Thread and the French Laundry are wonderful, but not to eat on a regular basis.....Derek is our perfect chef...he cooks with the same precision at the Michelin 3 star restaurants but his menu is one that we can eat weekly and never get tired.....THAT is rare....and welcome in such a remote location. It is our favorite place to eat if we are within 1 hour.....really wonderful! Oh, the setting and staff are also attentive, friendly and personal.....really nice.

We were only table for first part of our visit. Server seemed surprised and a bit snippy when we asked for plates after we started receiving tapas (we both wanted to taste each item ordered) - had to call him over to make request as he hadn't checked on us. Server offered to make substitutions to ingredients in beverages (due to dietary requirements after major surgery), but he was a bit dismissive when further questions posed. Not a warm and fuzzy and welcoming experience, felt like one of the tables in his shift. Food at Restaurant O is always beautifully presented, but flavor not up to as high a level. Prices for happy hour items were appreciated. Room decor exemplary, but noise level deafening - even with just a few tables. My husband is a retired Sound Engineer, so I get that all the hard surfaces (walls, ceiling, floor) are the issue, but there are many methods available that could be employed to dampen sound.

The food here is excellent. The night I dined there there was only one waiter literally running from table to table trying to keep up. I didn’t get my glass of wine until I was half way through my entree. The waiter was a very pleasant man and worked hard. This strikes me as more of a family restaurant not very fancy but good food at very reasonable prices
