    I came here last night with two friends to catch up—ended up staying way longer than planned. We ordered the grilled halloumi, hummus, and the lamb sliders.

    Had a nice meal at Balzem. I tried the Shakshuka with Simit(Turkish bagel), which had a pleasant, light taste and were really good. My friend ordered the ribeye sandwich and enjoyed that as well. Overall, a positive experience!
