A'Town Bistro 418 Commercial Avenue, Anacortes, WA 98221

"Amazing food and service! Very welcoming environment and great spot for a fancier meal out. Table ordered a variety from the menu: Charcuterie board was delish. We selected a honey ricotta, cocktail onions, sourdough bread, salami and really enjoyed it. You can mix and match as you want French onion soup was tasty but it would be a big portion to have along with an entree. Maybe consider sharing. Paella for two was delicious. I would say it’s able to serve three easily. Plus if you get an appetizer with it you will leave full. Patatas a la brava had a considerable amount of potatoes and very tasty sauces. Would recommend sharing. Scallop crudo was delish. It has a citrusy flavor that’s refreshing. Skagit valley burger hits the spot. Good for pickier eaters but would recommend venturing out and trying one of the other plates on the menu. Egg nog crème brûlée was a good way to end the meal. Egg nog flavor didn’t overpower the dessert. If you are looking to have coffee at the end of your meal just be aware that the French press they bring to the table makes around four cups and not single servings."

"It just doesn't get any better than A Town! Wow! The food is unreal! I wished I could try everything on the menu, but it turns out the duck l'orange was sheer perfection! We also had the scallop appetizer... amazing sauce! Hazelnut torte for dessert. The Tinderbox was so yummy off the cocktail list. Of course, the service was great too."

"Probably the most surprisingly delicious meal I have had in the area. Definitely order a drink, sit, relax and enjoy the company you have brought with you. THEN order food and enjoy. You could probably get away with ordering starters and share, especially if you have a group or are meeting someone new. Regardless, experiment with food flavors and enjoy yourself."

"Kate was an excellent waitress and so was the hostess who greeted us! The staff was quick to get our various courses to us. The restaurant was a bit loud but nothing too uncomfortable. We really enjoyed the paella. Thanks! Also, I recommend you make a reservation, it gets busy fast."

"Everything we tried was superb! It's pricier than we would usually go for, but great for a special occasion. Our group of three was able to sit right down at their outdoor dining area and had wonderful service. We tried the squid karaage, scotch eggs, paella, short ribs, and their special that night - a half Cornish hen in a harissa honey glaze. Everything was delicious and beautifully prepared and presented. They had two tasty ciders on tap and a top notch old fashion. We capped the night with a rhubarb tart and Lopez Island Creamery ice cream. We will definitely be back!"
