Reviews
Avo Hash Smash had hash browns, mashed avocado, grape tomatoes, bacon, and poached eggs. Side of house-made tomatillo sauce. The avocado was the highlight of the dish for me. It had all the flavor and there was a ton of it. No searching for some in each bite. It WAS every bite. And 3 slices of bacon was plenty to eat with every bite and then some. I loved the over easy poached eggs broken oven the bacon. It was soft and delicate but cook through and not wet or soupy. I was impressed with everything I had.
The House made RASPBERRY Lemonade was amazingly balanced and can actually taste the raspberry with real berries in the glass.
The menu was on a QR code you had to scan on the metal piece on the table. Some people around us had hand held menus which confused me. I scanned with my phone and we ordered that way cause we weren’t give any other option nor told what to do. But we guessed right.
Service was great. I’m gluten intolerant but they had no pastries or cinnamon rolls gluten free unfortunately. She said they had gluten-free bread they could do in place of the Syed brioche bread that comes with certain dishes. And she said the only pastry type thing they have that is gluten-free is the cheesecake but for breakfast that sounded too heavy for me.
There’s one review on here that says it’s very gluten friendly and I wouldn’t say they are for pastries. For toast, yes. And they do show that they care about that. But if you want things that are normally containing wheat, but with a gluten-free option like a scone or something, they don’t have that here.
Can’t go wrong with the frittata though Or the raspberry lemonade. My boyfriend got the special which was steak and eggs and bacon, but without the bacon. It melted in your mouth-The steak. He let me try and it was really good. Presentation was also awesome.
We had the special of sausage ragú and it was AMAZING and the Chicken Salad (curry) Salad (the most delicious salad I’ve had in years!)
If you’re in Bend and looking for a brunch that’s absolutely worth the wait, put The Lemon Tree at the top of your list. We put our name down and wandered through the downtown shops for about an hour before being seated, and honestly, I’d do it all over again.
I ordered the Shakshuka, and I don’t say this lightly: it was one of those rare dishes so perfectly balanced, so deeply flavorful, that I was furious when I got too full to finish. Every bite was rich and comforting, with just the right spice and depth. I might have managed to finish if I hadn’t also shared a cinnamon roll with my partner… but that’s hard to regret. It was pillowy, sweet, and utterly indulgent, one of those “you’ll be talking about it later” pastries.
My partner went for the Crab Cake Benedict, which looked like something out of a magazine spread. He was more than pleased, and while I was far too focused on my shakshuka to sneak a bite, his clean plate spoke for itself.
To round it all out, we tried both the Sangria and the Paloma, and they were exactly what brunch cocktails should be: refreshing, well-balanced, and not cloyingly sweet.
In short: if you’re in Bend, don’t miss The Lemon Tree. It’s cozy, lively, and every plate that passed our table looked like a masterpiece. Just be prepared to wait a bit, but trust me, it’s a wait you won’t regret.
