Zydeco Kitchen & Cocktails

Best of Central Oregon 2017: "Best Fine Dining" With upscale sophistication, flawless dishes and top-shelf drinks, Bend has a gem in this restaurant. Fusing spicy Creole cuisine with elegant Northwest simplicity, the kitchen is consistently impressive. The hip and modern ambiance adds to the effortless feel of the place. Try the Shrimp Po'Boy or Etoufee for Southern fare, or lighten up with the California Greek or Roasted Beet salad at lunch. If you’re unfamiliar, don’t let the handle fool you. Rather than offering Cajun cuisine, the menu is rooted in Northwest cuisine with some Southern influences. Try the popular Grilled Redfish or the Shrimp Andouille Jamabalaya for a taste of the bayou influence. Or play it straight with the Zydeco’s nearly unmatched ribeye.
