I went for lunch to celebrate my friend’s birthday and had such a good time. The food was delicious and our server Sabrina was so nice and patient lol…..My friend and I were chatting away we didn’t put in our entree order when she came around the first or the second time. Sabrina offered good suggestions and was very easy to talk to and gave us a great table. We really enjoyed our experience there and can’t wait to go back. Thank you Balzem!

Every item we tasted was well balanced and phenomenal. We had a nut allergy in the group and they made a special portion with no almonds to accommodate. Excellent wine pairings. Great discovery.
