Sen Thai Noodles & Hot Pot

I’ve been here quite a few times, and really love this place. The atmosphere inside is modern and bustling, and I’m obsessed with the beautiful outside patio overlooking the river.

Natalie is perfect behind the bar - makes amazing drinks and is always warm and welcoming. Keegan is great - attentive and fun. I had one evening with less than perfect service, but that happens.

The one time I did a hotpot, it was delicious. We went with another couple and it was a great activity to do as we got to know each other.

Basically - love this place!! It’s a great value (honestly think they should up their prices, I feel bad paying so little for such a great experience), and consistently delicious. If you haven’t been - definitely go!

5 stars for beautiful river front views and great restaurant ambience. Really pleasant.
5 stars for really nice staff and fast seating and and continued service during meal.
4 stars for food quality, taste and presentation. 20 dollar ramen should have better presentation. meatballs are rubbery. I feel like a few of the dishes we ordered needed rice but not offered.
3 stars drinks, cocktails are higher price but really tasty and unique and have fun presentations. Mix in lemonade that color changes, about the only things good for the kids. Only 2 beers available, which is really bad - we live in Bend. Thai restaurants usually have lots of beers available. Not here.
2 stars for price. Way overpriced. Small tiny portions and lack of hearty ingredients. I asked for some extra peanuts and the server told me it would $5 dollars for a bowl. That's a first..lol.
1 stars for kids. There is no options for kids. Don't bring them here. Fried chicken is your best bet. There is no soda. No deserts. Not accommodating for them.

First time visit and it was a recommendation. Really nice interior and a cool vibe. Offer tasty cocktails and appetizers. Ordered a little bit of everything. All meals were tasty with mild spices as that is how I believe most or all of the dishes are prepared. I not into spicy food but did enjoy everything.

We went for our anniversary.
Thank goodness we made reservations or we would not have gotten in on a Sunday night.
We ordered drinks and a starter and our main dish at the same time.
Moments after our drinks arrived, our dinner arrived.
The starter arrived 10 min later.
While the timing was off, the drinks and food were good.
So if that doesn’t matter to you, cuz there’s bigger things to worry about, then it’s all good.
The one thing we had a issue with was the noise level.
We were barely able to have a conversation without having to repeat half of what we said.
I’m not sure this could have been foreseen in advance when designing the place.
Or maybe it was the location of our table which was in the corner.
The portions were a tad small.
Two drink, one starter and two entrees…$120 with tip out the door.
We’d go again…eventually.

We finally ate here last night 02.20.22 after arriving back in Bend from Florida. Drinks were delicious and the food was very tasty. Great ambiance too. The short ribs in my meal were a bit chewy - not as fall off the bone as they’re typically in other places - but since the flavor was still amazing it’s still worth the 5 stars.
