My wife and I really enjoy the food and drinks and the staff is top notch!

It makes me a bit nostalgic for La Magie and Townshend's, because it has similar vibes to the two. Coffee from Bellatazza is great! We had a spicy **** marry, and it was wonderful. Definitely will be going again to try some other things on the menu!

I ordered the Prego sandwich, described as having “marinated steak, swiss cheese, with sautéed onions and herb mayo or dijon.” When I received thesandwich I was disappointed, it was such a thin slice of meat and it was more like 2 pieces of a ciabatta (or similar typebread), onions, cheese, herb mayo, and a little meat thrown in. I included photos of my meal. Sintra is a nice establishment togo to for good service and flavors but they just didn’t meet my expectations for a $15+ sandwich.

We opted for takeout as we were just passing through, and I now regret not taking more time to savor my meal. The portion I managed to enjoy was absolutely delicious, and we also had some cold brew coffee that hit the spot. My husband finished his food quickly, which is always a good sign. I love the downtown vibe of Bend and have my go-to spots, but Sintra will definitely be joining that list.
