   The owners should better staff the restaurant. The staff were running around and it was obvious they were under staffed.

   Dear Mom is a Bend, Oregon treasure--so delicious, fun, great drinks, sweet atmosphere. And on Thanksgiving, they were super-welcoming to us all. Really good choice!

   We arrvied late in the evening witha party of four. We had margaritas, very good, roti, very good and 2 good meals one not very good and one average. The not so good meal was Pad Woon Sen. the glass noodles were not fresly cooked, almost mushy as if they had been sitting around for a while. This was our fourth trip here and our first less than superb experience.

   I was not in love with being seated right on top of the two people next to me, it seems like they wanted to squeeze as many people in as possible. And the wood chairs were so hard and uncomfortable that I had to put my jacket under me. We were on a date night and my husband loves Thai. But was disappointed. I liked my Tom Ka soup very much!

    Considering you cannot get a reservation made without guaranteeing your credit card being charged a $15 per person ‘fine’ if you need to cancel within 24 hours or “no show” is enough for me to pass going there, but we went anyway (6 total people).. having not been there in the past and reading the advertisements regarding the restaurant which asked for business casual dress, and the way they advertised themselves I thought that this was a polished establishment. In reality, it’s a small place where you could dress any you wanted based on the customers we saw, the food was good. We sat outside on rickety wire chairs and tables along with folks, enjoying their meal, dressed in shorts and T-shirts with the dogs along with them . I have no problems with this except I would’ve gone casual! The plus side of this was the service was good. The food was good although overpriced, overall it did not live up to the advertised expectations.
