| These reviews may not be eloquently written, but the writing is honest. So, read away and take it for what its worth! We like to employ the 'two strikes and you are out rule!' I like to try a restaurant more than once. If a restaurant is really that bad both times, that's it for me! Keep in mind that these reviews are written by unpaid local folks. Read what you like and go out and try a new restaurant! AW Asian Bistro 1132 Finnegan Way (Fairhaven) Bellingham, WA 98225 (360) 715 3028 My new favorite restaurant! They pour you a very full glass of wine in a very big glass, my kind of place! Also, the food is great and the prices are reasonable. Cuisine is a cross between Japanese and Thai. They have sushi and Thai dishes. We got a free plate of edamame on the house while sitting up at the bar. I love going to a restaurant where the customer is appreciated! - Anonymous Bayou on Bay Holly & Bay Street, Bellingham I was pleasantly surprised eating at Bayou on Bay, a new Cajun style restaurant at the corner of Holly and Bay Streets. The Pan Fried Po-Boy sandwich I ordered was delicious and definitely close to the real thing. My dinner companions loved the jambalaya, and the blackened tuna. The vegetarian gumbo was very good as well. It has mid-priced menu items – that is a happy find here where it seems that restaurant food is getting more and more expensive, but the quality is not always equal to the price. They serve beer and wine – even a Louisiana beer that was quite tasty. I definitely recommend this restaurant to all. -Anonymous Bob's Burger and Brew Railroad Avenue, Downtown Bellingham Where else can you get a sandwich that has a hot dog on top of a hamburger in a bun! Needless to say, if you haven't been to Bob's, you should go. The prices are reasonable and the food is good. They have salads, fish and chips, burgers, and even dessert. We went to the new restaurant downtown Bellingham and it was great. I have been to all the Bob's and there are all the exact same. - Anonymous Boston Gourmet Pizza 70 Bellis Fair Parkway Bellingham, WA 98226 The pizza here is like Applebees: Kind of mass-produced with that company "flare". Again, it's not bad, just typical. The lasagna that my boyfriend got was loaded with beef and he enjoyed it very much. If I want gourmet pizza, though, I will skip Boston's and go to La Fiamma any day. - Anonymous Busara 404 36th St Bellingham WA (360) 734-8088 I love this place! The ambiance is great - I love the setting. They have an seating area where you remove your shoes and site on pillows. Love it! The food is pretty good, but it depends on what you order. I had Pad Thai Chicken and spring rolls. They also have chicken pot stickers - a wonderful surprise for this non-pork eater! Anyway, I love this place and I will go back again and again. - Anonymous Fiamma Burger 1309 Railroad Avenue Bellingham, WA 98225 (360) 733-7374 The new fiamma burger is open and we went there the other night. It was pretty busy - so it looks like lots of people are anxious to try it out. We had one cheeseburger and one chicken burger along with one fry and one onion ring. The food was ok, the interior design is really cool. One objection though - you pay for it. Our total bill for two burgers, fry and onion ring was over $18 bucks! That's a lot! Fiamma burger - we want you to succeed, but that is really expensive for this hamster! - Anonymous The Grace Cafe 1065 E. Sunset Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226-3510 (360) 650-9298 So, this place is not located downtown or in trendy Fairhaven, but it is definitely just as good as the best of them! Homemade pies, scones, bagels, and lots of other baked goodies. This is a great breakfast and lunch stop. In fact, it is one of my favorites. They even have a drive thru! One bit of bad news - they are not open on Sunday. So, if someone from the Grace Cafe is reading this, please hear my message: open your doors on Sunday! - Anonymous Honeymoon 1053 N State St Alley Bellingham, WA 98225 A couple of weeks ago, we were invited to go to a wine tasting birthday party at Honeymoon, a restaurant located in the alley behind State Street just south of the Depot Market Square (next door and below the Pepper Sisters). Let me tell you how much I like this place! I am all about ambiance, and this place has it for sure. While it is small, it is very intimate. Are you looking for a quiet place to taste wine and have a bite to eat? Enjoy $1.00 wine tastings of seasonal favorites. Enjoy tapas (a variety of small appetizer-like dishes) in a dimly lit dinning area while gazing towards the back room where the French oak barrels are stored. I give this place an A+ for catering to people like me that are all about the look and feel of a place. - Anonymous Luis's Mexican Restaurant # 1538 Birchwood Ave, #B Bellingham, WA (360) 756-8973 I love this restaurant! Yes, it is just Mexican food. But it is good. This is a great family run business and the service is fast and friendly. We get 1/2 off dinner from coupons in the Valu-Pak mailer that comes every month to everyone in Bellingham. The food is on par with the rest of Bellingham as far as Mexican goes. They have all the regular items. The great thing about this place is that you'll never have to wait for a table and you won't have to wait long for your food. Love it! - Anonymous Lychee Buffet 819 Lakeway Dr. Bellingham, WA 98229 Just another buffet, right? No, not this one. I think the chef is from San Francisco. Anyway, they have all you can eat crab legs, oysters, prawns, sushi, duck and an assortment of Chinese cuisine. Get this, all for $10.59 for dinner! That's unbelievable. All you can eat dungeness crab at Anthony's is like over 30 bucks! If you are hungry and want some good chow, go to this place! It's worth it! They always keep there buffet fully stocked, so you won't be waiting in line or disappointed. - Anonymous Scotty Browns 3101 Newmarket Street Suite 201 Bellingham, WA (360) 306-8823 Wow - if I closed my eyes and forgot where I was, I would think that I am in downtown Seattle or Bellevue. The atmosphere at this place is good. They also have year-round outdoor seating on their patio that looks over Barkley Village. Great place for a work party or a date. The bar seemed really happening. The food was not too bad, but pretty expensive. I had a fish burger, french fries, and spinach dip for an appetizer. It was alright and I will probably come back. - Anonymous Skylarks Hidden Cafe 1308 11th St Bellingham, WA 98225 - 7081 (360)715-3642 Go to this restaurant! I rate it an A+ for food and feel! If you are as lucky as we were, you'd walk right in and have a seat in a swing-back chair next to the fireplace. We enjoyed a veggie sandwich with new england clam chowder and Skylark's signature light and zesty coleslaw. The look and feel of the place is that of an old antique shop. During the summer time, they have a great outdoor seating area. Not sure what's on the menu for dinner, but we enjoyed an awesome lunch. So, the next time you are in Fairhaven, you have got to check this place out! - Anonymous |
