We made a reservation. This small populate restaurant fills up quickly. Park street side. Upon arrival we were promptly greeted and seated. We choose to be inside to shelter from the cold. There is an outdoor covered/sheltered street side seating/dining option. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. No table linen cover. While it was quite busy, the noise level was not at a conversation damping level. The menu offered something for everyone. We enjoyed the appetizer charcuterie medley and shell food entrees. A tasty experience in a small town restaurant.
My wife and I ordered the clam chowder and smoked duck ramen for dinner and dark chocolate mousse for dessert. Everything was delicious. Best clam chowder we have had. The ramen was a great pairing for variance in taste, as we shared each dish. We were both stuffed, but went for dessert as recommended by our awesome waitress Crystal. It was amazing. Great food, friendly energetic service.
A'Town is our go-to place for special occasions. They have incredible food with the most beautiful plating. The paella was perfect. The black cod had way too much cumin in the sauce but I think that had to be accidental. The picnic plate is the most beautiful charcuterie board I have seen at a restaurant. All the flavors and textures complemented each other. We added a chicken pate to ours.
Top drawer food and wait staff. Worth every penny every time. Excellent presentation and good wine and bar stock. It's our local go to for a date.
Attentive staff and wonderful food. Many classic dishes with just enough fresh interpretation to keep the experience comforting and bright. The care and quality was evident in every dish. Lovely dining room -- and very comfortable and attractive outdoor dining seating is available too. Thank you!
Definitely worth the price, not somewhere to overlook. My boyfriend and I had dinner here and were very impressed with the service all around. Our appetizer, drinks and main course were all 5 star. Without a reservation we sat at the end of the bar, overlooking the end of the kitchen. Our bartender was polite, friendly, quick and worked with class. I was able to witness this amazing women in the kitchen who cooked at least 5 dishes the whole time. One for the books. Picture of the Nerka King.
Came for the French onion soup and was not disappointed! Nice, heated outdoor space and incredibly friendly staff, which is a refreshing change from Seattle.
My attempt at superlatives will not do this place justice... the paella was one of the best meals of my life, and my partner said the same about the clam chowder. Meals are made to order, so they have no fuss to accommodate any substitution/omissions/adjustments. Great server/service, stiff drink ("spirit forward" cocktails), great menu and sufficient dessert. A-town Bistro should be at the top of our list for a great meal in Anacortes.
A.Town Bistro is a gem. One of our favorite restaurants in Washington State. The service is fabulous and the food is out of this world yummy. They use the best quality ingredients and always offer local fare. Simply put…Delicious, Fabulous, Awesome!
This is an amazing place for a special meal! The menu was unique, the food was cooked to perfection, and the service was excellent. Overall, my experience here was incredible!
