My husband and I rarely make it up to Bellingham, so when faced with where to dine there last night, we found Tivoli...and we were blown away by the ambience, service, menu, and food. Being an avid home cook and having eaten at many of Seattle's finer restaurants, it takes a very good restaurant experience to leave me a satisfied... more

My husband and I thought that the menu, the food, the decor, and the sophisticated, well-informed staff made Tivoli perfect The duck breast was succulent. A delightful surprise for me, a Texan, was the chocolate soda (very Texas!) on the dessert menu. Kudos to the chef(s). more

The food was wonderful and the setting was great. The service was very slow, perhaps they simply had more guest than planned on for a Sunday night. It took forever to get dessert and another eternity to get the check. Overall it was worthwill. more

Although it is advertised as a "french" restaurant...don't let that turn you away. There is plenty of amazing food for everyone, even vegetarians. The waitstaff is absolutely amazing..impeccable service. They never rush you and the food is always perfectly prepared. The mussel appetizer is especially good and the gnocci. They have a fun drink menu and great selection of wine.... more

We eat at Tivoli once every couple of months, and are always impressed by the consistently excellent food and warm service. They've changed their menu since the last time we were there, and there are several new choices. I had the Pork Chop...a thick, juicy double-chop which was crusted with garlic and fennel, grilled, and then pan-roasted. Easily the best... more

The reviews of Tivoli were more than encouraging, and the menu items all looked delicious. The fact that the restaurant's website touts the fact that Tivoli's chefs were trained at the Culinary Institute of America, together with all the other promising indicators, all made the restaurant seem close to a sure thing for a home run. Sadly, that did not... more

We had Veal Scallopini that was out of this world, with a delicate yet forceful sauce serve over astonishingly good pasta, Steak fries- the steak was perfectly cooked to order and the fries were served with a remoulade sauce, nicely crisped home fries, mussels... more

My wife and I love Tivoli. During weeknights they have a special deal where you get a three course meal for $25, if you are there before 7. It includes a choice of salad or appetizer, a choice of entrees from 4-5 of the regular menu items, and a choice of dessert. Its a fabulous deal for food this fresh... more

This place was strangely quiet on a Saturday night, perhaps because it was unusually hot & they only have a small patio. Inside it was not airconditioned & a little stuffy. Food was excellent however, & we appreciated the fact that the menu had a good variety of larger & smaller plates at different price points. Service was pleasant &... more

I live in Bellingham and Tivoli is my favorite restaurant. Last night I had the steak with mashed potatos and greens; my husband had the rack of lamb. Both were delicious and well prepared. The fixed prix meals available between 5-7 p:m are good value at $25 for 3-courses. They also make a super martini for $5 between 5-7. We... more
