Saltine Bellingham

The food was very good here and the parking was closewhich was important because, as usual, in the Pacific Northwest it was raining. I was there near closing time but the bartender was helpful and didn't make me feel rushed at all. Crowd was friendly. Ordered a rare rib steak. In my experience many places have trouble with rare, but they got it perfect. Can't complain at all. Would certainly return again.

This is the best restaurant in Bellingham and I've never had a dish I didn't love. The food is beautifully prepared and perfectly seasoned. Nothing is boring here and even classic dishes soar. The atmosphere is warm Scandi and fits the simplicity of the seasonal menu.

Cute place for lunch, dinner, dates, etc. Very small, one bathroom, usually packed with a line out the door.

The service was excellent and the food was delicious. We ordered the pea risotto, steak and frites, chicken with potato puree, and a cheese plate. Everything was exceptional, fresh and we will definitely be going back often. One of our new favorite restaurants. Their drinks menu is great as well, lots of different options for alcoholic beverages or non-alcoholic beverages. Highly recommend.
