Severely disappointed by our dinners. I cant imagine a french bistro serving a couple slices of baguette we dont finish (with margarine!?) ... until now. The reason for 2 instead of 1 stars was the cold leak and potato soup (delicious). Sadly, we ordered dinner. I had the duck (over cooked as a stew rather than roasted or seared, with skin a-flailing) and she had a seasonal Beef Bourguignonne (basically your grandmothers over-salted egg noodles with chuck beef cubes in far-too-salty sauce). Bright note: The wait staff was great (Katy and Marta were personable and attentive) but the red paper napkins should have clued us in - we might as well be at an 80s wedding reception, complete with red and black paper napkins and sharp golf course silverware! I will not be back. I will tell friends to skip it. I will continue to hope for more food options in the desert I currently call home. Side note: I cant remember ever spending $100 on dinner and not wanting to bring the leftovers home.. that happened tonight.

Went to Carousel for a very important business meeting, I was treated like royalty! What an amazing find here in Yakima. This is the best restaurant I have been to in this area. My clients were very impressed and the dishes were fantastic. The staff was superb and the atmosphere was perfect. We will be back to book a future presentation in the event room.

Me and my girlfriend came here on our 1 year anniversary and the experience was amazing. Weve have food from Seattle and Portland and this restaurant can easily go head to head. The romantic atmosphere only strengthened the lovely night. Our server was always asking us what we needed And kept our bread warm. Deffienatly coming here again soon.

An absolutely delightful experience. The hostess was engaging, informative, charming. The chef has a rare gift of being able to pair flavors and aromas to make the mouth water upon presentation. Its an unexpected find in central Washington state - or anywhere outside a major metropolitan arena. Kudos to the staff and owners of this gem.

I have been back 3 times in the last two weeks. The Lamb Burger on the Bistro menu is the best Ive had. Juicy, tender and the seasonings and sauce compliment the lamb extremely well. The Mushroom soup was also delicious. Server was very friendly and attentive even though she was busy. Will be returning again... maybe tomorrow.

Hidden Gem!!! My husband and I had to have our Valentines date a bit early this year since he is leaving on February 4th for 3 weeks of training for the Army. We decided to try Carousel and I am so beyond glad we did! The food, service, and atmosphere was absolutely FANTASTIC! By far the very best restaurant we have ever been to.

Desperately need to visit more. This place makes the most wonderful duck, lamb, and cherries jubilee I have ever had. Even if they werent wonderful which they were, its also the only place in town to get such things as these. I was welcomed in every visit and catered to well. Great for celebrations and romance.

Very good food. Authentic per plate and savory. Service was very good. Drinks were excellent! Really a nice experience here in Yakima. Nice atmosphere- great overall. Quite pricey though this groupon helped but chances are youll still lose a benjamin! Although pricey it was quality. It was worth the cost.

Literally the worst meal Ive ever had. Ordered the chicken sandwich, which was RAW in the middle. A teaspoon of dressing for my salad. Ordered a cheese plate, it never even showed up. Go anywhere but here! Seriously, for 2 adults and a child it was $80 for lunch.....

Bloody Mary bar. All in all, this was a great experience and food was great. Service was on point and never had to wait to ask a question and always had something at the table to eat and drink. Great anniversary spot. Great experience approved.

Delightful ambiance (at the bar), smiling service, great food and wines. As a main course I had the beef bourguignon which was dome hachis parmentier style (shredded beef over mashed potatoes), which is original and delicious.

The Highest dining experience that also has the best food in the valley. I have worked with the owners and dined here several times. It is a fantastic place that should be and continue to be Yakimas best kept secret.
