Restaurants near Pickett House

Always have a very enjoyable meal when we go here. Look forward to coming back. The sunset dinners are a good value.

Food: wonderful and interesting. They do everything great from fish to meat to vegetables. The squash dish with a sort of sweet / savory / spicy topping was excellent. So was the black cod and the bavette steak. Pricing was as it would be for what they are serving, though Bellinghamsters are notoriously cheap when it comes to restaurants so we will see how Roe goes over. The service was excellent, good recommendations and attentive. The atmosphere was ok - the space has been lightened up with light furniture and walls, since the spaces last incarnation Ciao Thyme. I personally don’t care for that in a dinner setting, and ouch hard chairs! And not enough soft made for a loud space that could use some sound dampening, hence the less one star for ambiance. Definitely will go again.

The dining environment is very nice (and home-like).......... Our waiter was good and he let us know that he was recently hired and was learning. The my wife's Halibut & Chips was excellent, but the Beef Dip was overwhelmed with way too much mayo, mustard, cheese and onions. Beef Dip is meant to be dipped in the "Au Jus" so you can taste the "BEEF"!! The Beef Dip Served was more like a Phili Cheese Steak! Andre

We liked the gem salad, rye bread, carrots, and duck confit. The mushroom dish was flavorful but heavier on lentils than mushrooms. The tuna in the crudo was a bit fishy. Overall a nice meal in B-ham. Cocktails nice though wine selection limited.

While it "seems" expensive, in a way it's actually a bargain if you consider that many costlier restaurants don't serve food that is as good as Carnal. Flavor so good it becomes indelible in your memory.
