ReviewsHave you ever had a bad experience...? I have. I recently visited Billie McHale's. I had such a poor experience that I just had to tell someone. Let me tell you the whole story. I went there on a whim. I got there about 7:45 p.m. and the hostess did not even acknowledge my presence. Not until I was the only person standing in the reception area. I stood there waiting for over five minutes and not so much as a "Hello" or "How many?" After I was finally seated, it seemed like forever before a server came to greet me. No one even so much as smiled. After that, it took forever to get a simple glass of water and even longer to get my salad before the meal. At one point, I asked for some extra napkins. Never got them at all. I have. I recently visited Billie McHale's. I had such a poor experience that I just had to tell someone. Let me tell you the whole story. I went there on a whim.

Never got them at all. I ate my salad and, again, waited forever to get my entree and when it came it was not hot. I asked again for napkins and a refill, this time, and got them just as I was finishing my meal. The food was less than desireable, the portions small and overpriced for the quality. I only saw MY server 4 times: ordering, salad, to ask for water, and with the check (which also did not come easily). I spoke to the manager, who did not even introduce himself, and felt as if he did not even care. He offered a couple of lame excuses like being shorthanded in the kitchen. (How this affects service, I will never know) I have been a cook and could understand if the food were late, but I feel that all my trouble was with the server. I just had a poor overall experience and will not return nor would I EVER recommend it to someone else. Food Rating [2/10] Service Rating [2/10] Ambiance Rating [2/10] It Sucked The prime rib was tough and chewy and very small for the price, I can't believe I went back there, last time the shrimp was like rubber. This must be the worst restaurant in Bellingham. The prime rib was tough and chewy and very small for the price, I can't believe I went back there, last time the shrimp was like rubber.

Food Rating [2/10] Service Rating [4/10] Ambiance Rating [4/10] Fantastic I haven't actually been in awhile but I am returning tonight because I love the atmosphere. It just so happens that I'm a little younger than most that post here (18) but I still enjoy the relatively cheap prices and good food. Its not grade A food by any means but I always enjoy a cheap-tasting, yet delicious meal. I haven't actually been in awhile but I am returning tonight because I love the atmosphere.
