Bistro is without a doubt the best food in Arlington if not Washington. Everything is cooked to perfection and Steve makes every visit memorable. One of the nicest people you will ever meet.

The four of us really enjoyed our time last night at the Bistro. We had salads, main courses and of course, dessert. The portions were perfect. Everything was great! Our waitress did an amazing job.

We have stopped at this restaurant whenever we are in the area over the last 15 years or so and it is so reliable! Our latest stop involved a couple of glasses of wine to go with our meal which started with a shared appetizer...of prawns with a strawberry and rhubarb sauce. So, sooo good! We followed that with crab cakes and the daily special of halibut. Both dishes were excellent and were of the quality we have come to expect from this fine establishment. We have seen the restaurant grow over the years yet they always manage to please and provide the same consistent quality. Service is always pleasant and there seems to be very little turnover in staff. Put this on your list of places to go!More

Everything is delicious! Our favorite is the seared jumbo prawns and the lemon creme brûlée is a must try! The staff is friendly and always remembers us!

Bistro San Martin is truly a special place with expertly prepared dishes in a warm and cozy environment. What a gem hidden in little downtown Arlington. We celebrated my birthday here and the entire experience was absolutely perfect. The Bistro has mastered the balance of...upscale but not pretentious! We started with drinks (the lemon drop was wonderful), followed by the best Caesar Salad I’ve ever had, and then we ordered the filet mignon and stuffed chicken. Both were perfectly prepared and we had to stop ourselves from licking the plate clean. We will continue to find reasons to return and explore the rest of the menu!More

This masterful accomplishment in a small Pacific Northwest town about an hour north of Seattle has for years been a hallmark of classic French cuisine. With an excellent wait staff, a varied and value priced wine list and the masterful output by Chef Martin aided...by his partner and manager, Steve, time after time makes return visits inevitable. No matter what menu items ordered including in-house created desserts this is a fine culinary experience that is always repeated. BRAVO to the entire bistro teamMore

Why drive to Seattle when we have the best meal in our backyard and treated more like good friends. The Bistro in Arlington is one of those special places. We go for romantic dinners, bring friends, send friends and come away each time ready to...make a new reservation to get back for another meal. We're thankful we have such a gem here in Arlington.More
