The dining room was elegant yet cozy, with great lighting. The staff was also very friendly and our waiter was very helpful in aiding our choice. We ordered the Focaccia bread, the salmon momtadito and the tonnarelli as our entree. The focaccia was the only dissapointing item as it was very basic in my opinion, which isn't bad but just nothing exciting to write about. The appetizer, the salmon montadito, was probably my favorite item of the night. It was served on focaccia bread and drizzled with a truffle honey butter and sat upon a mascarapone yogurt. It was elegant and it was incredibly flavorful. The sweetness of the truffle honey butter was a great contrast to the salmon itself, and all melted together to make an exceptional appetizer. The tonnarelli was a pasta dish we split and was also very tasty. The pasta itself was a thicker spaghetti like pasta served with plenty of crab. It was tasty and it satisfied and I'd likely order it again as I will be back when my sister's visit. All in all, a great restaurant to spend a nice night right in the heart of Bellingham!

We came in for an early dinner so we were really able to enjoy the rustic ambience of this restaurant all by ourselves. As soon as we sat down the waitress was attentive and ready to take our order. I order the garden party off their cocktail menu. Snap pea gin, bay leaf vermouth, genepy, saline and pea shoot? I really was feeling adventurous with this one, a regrettable mistake. The first sip I thought I was drinking sea water with a touch of olive oil in it. I never send back drinks although I was close with this one, I sipped it throughout my meal. One critique I have about the cocktail menu is that every drink was over complicated with many exotic ingredients. There was nothing for someone who was looking for a simple craft cocktail. The table shared the Strawberry Panzanella, and once again I was accosted by an overwhelming salty and sour flavor. A traditional Italian salad consisting of grilled strawberry and focaccia croutons. The lemon vinaigrette dressing on this salad was salty and sour, and very overpowering. Unlike my drink we were unable to finish this one. I ordered the Roe Burger, which I had been really looking forward to trying, thankfully this one did not disappoint. Two smash burger patties that were thin, crispy, and cooked to perfection with slices of cheddar cheese on top are then placed on a bed of classic burger toppings. Tomato, pickles, and iceberg lettuce. This burger was served with crispy fries and garlic aioli. After my fist few bites my mind was beginning to change about this restaurant. We also shared the Reuben Croquettes. A super creative and unique spin on one of my personal favorite appetizers. These little fried pocket were filled with a delicious mixture of cheese and shredded corned beef. They were garnished with a small slice of pickle which was a great touch. For dessert we decided to try the hazelnut torte which was fantastic. It had a nice crisp outer layer with a soft gooey center. Lovely flavor and texture that ended our experience at Roe wonderfully. In conclusion our experience at Roe had its ups and downs but I left feeling satisfied. If you are looking for a unique culinary experience I would give this restaurant a try.

Usually i dont waste my time and write none sense review but this one i just had to. The food here is very good but on my 5th visit where i ordered a to go butter chicken and extra rice and when i brough it home i found a hair in the rice which looked like a genital hair and it was disgusting because i ate almost half of the rice before finding it out. when I inform the chubby guy with the big belly the next day on a Thursday he basically told me that his staff is perfect and that i only tried to get free food. When i specifically told him over phone that I dont care about any free stuff because i have money, I dont need free hand out. none the less i will not be back here.

tonight was our first visit to Naan and Brew.Three words... it was amazing! My husband and I started with the vegetable samosa that were flavorful and delicious. I had the butter chicken, and my husband had the lamb vindaloo. The butter chicken was rich and full of flavor. We ordered our meal with two stars of spice, and that was perfect for us. If you are the kind of person who likes heavy spice, I would highly suggest you go to three or four stars. The service was spot on, and it was nice to see the owner circulating around the room. The naan and basmati rice were cooked to perfection. We will definitely come back and try the lunch buffet, and be back for dinner over and over again. read more

Great food! We started with the vegetable Samosas which were so flavorful and maybe a little more than 2 on the heat scale, but oh so good. We split the Butter Chicken and Lamb Vindaloo. Ordered 2 on the heat scale again and I thought it was not as hot as the Samosas. I know how difficult it is to gauge the heat when preparing dishes, but both were just delicious! They have a good selection of local beers on tap, and I was happy to see Wander Rye Shoe Toss Rye IPA in my glass. Good staff and friendly owners/kitchen staff who checked on our opinion of our meal. Nice touch! Definitely be back! So happy to have well prepared Indian food in Bham. read more

I went here for the first time with a girlfriend for dinner last night and was pretty impressed. The location is adorable, the food was terrific, and our bill was totally affordable. I had the garlic nann ( A MUST HAVE!!) and butter chicken. Absolutely delicious. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because they have horrible florescent hospital-like lighting and literally no artwork or décor. I'm guessing this is because they are so new. I especially liked that the owner asked us how our food was. I will totally be coming here again. read more
